A New Role for the GARP Complex in MicroRNA-Mediated Gene Regulation
Many core components of the microRNA pathway have been elucidated and knowledge of their mechanisms of action actively progresses. In contrast, factors with modulatory roles on the pathway are just starting to become known and understood. Using a genetic screen in Caenorhabditis elegans, we identify a component of the GARP (Golgi Associated Retrograde Protein) complex, vps-52, as a novel geneti...
متن کاملThe Arabidopsis double-stranded RNA-binding protein HYL1 plays a role in microRNA-mediated gene regulation.
The Arabidopsis HYL1 gene encodes a nuclear double-stranded RNA-binding protein. A knockout mutation of the hyl1 gene is recessive and pleiotropic, causing developmental abnormalities, increasing sensitivity to abscisic acid, and reducing sensitivity to auxin and cytokinin. We report that levels of several microRNAs (miRNAs; miR159, -167, and -171) are reduced in homozygous mutant plants, and l...
متن کاملSystems Biology Reveals MicroRNA-Mediated Gene Regulation
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are members of the small non-coding RNAs, which are principally known for their functions as post-transcriptional regulators of target genes. Regulation by miRNAs is triggered by the translational repression or degradation of their complementary target messenger RNAs (mRNAs). The growing number of reported miRNAs and the estimate that hundreds or thousands of genes are regula...
متن کاملRegulation of microRNA-mediated gene silencing by microRNA precursors
miRNAs are a class of about 1,000 noncoding RNAs that in mammals regulate about half of the protein-encoding genes by enhancing their degradation or preventing their translation1,2. After transcription, the long primary miRNA (pri-miRNA) transcripts are processed to 60to 80-nt precursor miRNAs (pre-miRNAs) and are subsequently cleaved to mature ~22-nt-long duplex RNAs3,4. With a few exceptions5...
متن کاملThe role of RNA structure at 5' untranslated region in microRNA-mediated gene regulation.
Recent studies have suggested that the secondary structure of the 5' untranslated region (5' UTR) of messenger RNA (mRNA) is important for microRNA (miRNA)-mediated gene regulation in humans. mRNAs that are targeted by miRNA tend to have a higher degree of local secondary structure in their 5' UTR; however, the general role of the 5' UTR in miRNA-mediated gene regulation remains unknown. We sys...
