The ODC 3′-Untranslated Region and 5′-Untranslated Region Contain cis-Regulatory Elements: Implications for Carcinogenesis [PDF]
It has been hypothesized that both the 3′-untranslated region (3′UTR) and the 5′-untranslated region (5′UTR) of the ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) mRNA influence the expression of the ODC protein. Here, we use luciferase expression constructs to examine the influence of both UTRs in keratinocyte derived cell lines. The ODC 5′UTR or 3′UTR was cloned into

Optimization of the 5' untranslated region of mRNA vaccines. [PDF]
To investigate the impact of different 5' untranslated regions (UTRs) on mRNA vaccine translation efficiency, five dual-reporter gene expression plasmids with different 5'UTRs were constructed. The corresponding mRNA transcripts were transcribed and capped in vitro.

Internal ribosomal entry site-mediated translational activity of nitric oxide synthase 2
The internal ribosome entry site (IRES) is a unique structure found in the 5’ untranslated region (5'-UTR) of specific messenger RNAs (mRNAs) that allows ribosomes to bind and initiate translation without the need for a cap structure.

Importance of the 5' untranslated region for recombinant enzyme production in isolated Bacillus subtilis 007. [PDF]
The production of industrial enzymes requires an efficient expression system with a suitable host. This study investigated the isolated Bacillus subtilis 007 as a host for expressing three enzymes with potential application in the food industry. Firstly,

Translating the Untranslated Region [PDF]
Abstract Gene expression programs undergo constant regulation to quickly adjust to environmental stimuli that alter the physiological status of the cell, like cellular stress or infection. Gene expression is tightly regulated by multilayered regulatory elements acting in both cis and trans.

Post-transcriptional regulation is involved in the regulation of many inflammatory genes. Zinc finger protein 36 (ZFP36) family proteins are RNA-binding proteins involved in messenger RNA (mRNA) metabolism pathways. The ZFP36 family is composed of ZFP36 (

Conserved Sequences in the 5′ and 3′ Untranslated Regions of Jingmenvirus Group Representatives
The Jingmenvirus group (JVG), with members such as Jingmen tick virus (JMTV), Alongshan virus (ALSV), Yanggou tick virus (YGTV), and Takachi virus (TAKV), is drawing attention due to evidence of it causing disease in humans and its unique genome ...

The Untranslated Regions of mRNAs in Cancer [PDF]
The 5' and 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) regulate crucial aspects of post-transcriptional gene regulation that are necessary for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. When these processes go awry through mutation or misexpression of certain regulatory elements, the subsequent deregulation of oncogenic gene expression can drive or enhance cancer ...

Characterization of Single Nucleotide Variants of OPN3 Gene in Melanocytic Nevi and Melanoma
In this study, we examined single nucleotide variants (SNVs) of the OPN3 gene in malignant melanoma and melanocytic nevi. A total of 20 variants of SNVs were detected.
