UPF1 promotes rapid degradation of m6A-containing RNAs

open access: yesCell Reports, 2022
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal modification in eukaryotic mRNAs and affects RNA processing and metabolism. When YTHDF2, an m6A-recognizing protein, binds to m6A, it facilitates the destabilization of m6A-containing RNAs (m6A RNAs).

Structure-Mediated RNA Decay by UPF1 and G3BP1 [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2020
Post-transcriptional mechanisms regulate the stability and, hence, expression of coding and noncoding RNAs. Sequence-specific features within the 3' untranslated region (3' UTR) often direct mRNAs for decay. Here, we characterize a genome-wide RNA decay pathway that reduces the half-lives of mRNAs based on overall 3' UTR structure formed by base ...

Upf1 Senses 3′UTR Length to Potentiate mRNA Decay [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2010
The selective degradation of mRNAs by the nonsense-mediated decay pathway is a quality control process with important consequences for human disease. From initial studies using RNA hairpin-tagged mRNAs for purification of messenger ribonucleoproteins assembled on transcripts with HIV-1 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) sequences, we uncover a two-step ...

The Upf1 protein restricts EV-A71 viral replication

Microbes and Infection, 2023
Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) is transmitted through the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal system, and fecal-oral routes. The main symptoms caused by EV-A71 are hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) or vesicular sore throat. Upf1 (Up-frameshift protein 1) was reported to degrade mRNA containing early stop codons, known as nonsense-mediated decay (NMD ...

UPF1 P-body localization

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2008
NMD (nonsense-mediated mRNA decay) is a mechanism that degrades transcripts containing PTCs (premature translation termination codons). NMD is a translation-associated process that is expected to take place throughout the cytoplasm. However, recent studies have indicated that the core NMD factors UPF1 (up-frameshift-1), UPF2 and UPF3 can associate with

UPF1 involvement in nuclear functions

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2012
UPF1 (up-frameshift 1) is a protein conserved in all eukaryotes that is necessary for NMD (nonsense-mediated mRNA decay). UPF1 mainly localizes to the cytoplasm and, via mechanisms that are linked to translation termination but not yet well understood, stimulates rapid destruction of mRNAs carrying a PTC (premature translation termination codon ...

Upf1 Phosphorylation Triggers Translational Repression during Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2008
In mammalian cells, nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) generally requires that translation terminates sufficiently upstream of a post-splicing exon junction complex (EJC) during a pioneer round of translation. The subsequent binding of Upf1 to the EJC triggers Upf1 phosphorylation.

Targeting of viral RNAs by Upf1-mediated RNA decay pathways

Current Opinion in Virology, 2021
Viral RNAs are susceptible to co-translational RNA decay pathways mediated by the RNA helicase Upstream frameshift 1 (Upf1). Upf1 is a key component in nonsense-mediated decay (NMD), Staufen1-mediated mRNA decay (SMD), and structure-mediated RNA decay (SRD) pathways, among others.

Biochemical Characterization of Human Upf1 Helicase

2009
We present here the biochemical characterization of human Upf1 helicase core (hUpf1c). hUpf1c is overexpressed as a GST fusion protein in Escherichia coli and purified using chromatographic methods. In vitro ATP binding and single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) binding activities are measured using dot-blot technique. Measurement of RNA-dependent ATPase activity
