Structure Characterization of Escherichia coli Pseudouridine Kinase PsuK
Pseudouridine (Ψ) is one of the most abundant RNA modifications in cellular RNAs that post-transcriptionally impact many aspects of RNA. However, the metabolic fate of modified RNA nucleotides has long been a question. A pseudouridine kinase (PsuK) and a

The Orphan Receptor GPR17 Is Unresponsive to Uracil Nucleotides and Cysteinyl Leukotrienes [PDF]
Pairing orphan G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) with their cognate endogenous ligands is expected to have a major impact on our understanding of GPCR biology. It follows that the reproducibility of orphan receptor ligand pairs should be of fundamental importance to guide meaningful investigations into the pharmacology and function of individual ...

Expression of microRNAs in Horse Plasma and Their Characteristic Nucleotide Composition. [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in blood plasma are stable under high levels of ribonuclease activity and could function in tissue-to-tissue communication, suggesting that they may have distinctive structural characteristics compared with non-circulating miRNAs.

Northern Blot of tRNA in Yeast
tRNAs are small RNAs around 70-90 nt. tRNAs are different from many other small RNAs in that they are very abundant, which makes it difficult to study their transcriptional regulation by traditional northern blot.
