3' Uridylation and the regulation of RNA function in the cytoplasm.
Degradation of cytoplasmic mRNAs is an important aspect of the regulation of gene function in eukaryotes. Much of what is currently known about the underlying pathways of mRNA decay is derived from studies of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, in which mRNA turnover is initiated by deadenylation, followed either by decapping and 5'-->3' degradation or by further 3'-->5' exonucleolysis....
متن کاملWidespread 3′-end uridylation in eukaryotic RNA viruses
RNA 3' uridylation occurs pervasively in eukaryotes, but is poorly characterized in viruses. In this study, we demonstrate that a broad array of RNA viruses, including mycoviruses, plant viruses and animal viruses, possess a novel population of RNA species bearing nontemplated oligo(U) or (U)-rich tails, suggesting widespread 3' uridylation in eukaryotic viruses. Given the biological relevance ...
متن کاملDown-Regulation of sidB Gene by Use of RNA Interference in Aspergillus nidulans
Background: Introduction of the RNA interference (RNAi) machinery has guided the researchers to discover the function of essential vital or virulence factor genes in the microorganisms such as fungi. In the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, the gene sidB plays an essential role in septation, conidiation and vegetative hyphal growth. In the present study, we benefited from the RNAi strate...
متن کاملChromatin, Gene, and RNA Regulation
Members of the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT) contain tumor-associated translocations that give rise to oncogenic transcription factors, most commonly EWS/FLI1. EWS/FLI1 plays a dominant role in tumor progression by modulating the expression of hundreds of target genes. Here, the impact of EWS/FLI1 inhibition, by RNAi-mediated knockdown, on cellular signaling was investigated using mass ...
متن کاملEpitranscriptomics: Toward A Better Understanding of RNA Modifications
Ever since the first RNA nucleoside modification was characterized in 1957 [1], over 100 distinct chemical modifications have been identified in RNA to date [2]. Most of these modifications were characterized in non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including tRNA, rRNA, and small nuclear RNA (snRNA) [3]. Studies in the past few decades have located various modifications in these ncRNAs and revealed their ...
