Monitoring mRNA decapping activity.
mRNA decapping is a common step shared between two important mRNA decay pathways in yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To investigate how mRNAs are decapped, we have developed an assay that can be easily used to measure the decapping activity. This assay has been used to isolate yeast strains with altered decapping activities. The results demonstrated that decreased decapping activity in vitro co...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of mRNA scavenger decapping enzymes.
Eukaryotic cells primarily utilize exoribonucleases and decapping enzymes to degrade their mRNA. Two major decapping enzymes have been identified. The hDcp2 protein catalyzes hydrolysis of the 5' cap linked to an RNA moiety, whereas the scavenger decapping enzyme, DcpS, functions on a cap structure lacking the RNA moiety. DcpS is a member of the histidine triad (HIT) family of hydrolases and ca...
متن کاملVitamin D and the RNA transcriptome: more than mRNA regulation
The GRCh37.p13 primary assembly of the human genome contains 20805 protein coding mRNA, and 37147 non-protein coding genes and pseudogenes that as a result of RNA processing and editing generate 196501 gene transcripts. Given the size and diversity of the human transcriptome, it is timely to revisit what is known of VDR function in the regulation and targeting of transcription. Early transcript...
متن کاملPremature termination codons enhance mRNA decapping in human cells.
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a eukaryotic surveillance process that promotes selective degradation of imperfect messages containing premature translation termination codons (PTCs). In yeast, PTCs trigger both deadenylylation-independent mRNA decapping, thereby allowing their rapid degradation by a 5' to 3' exonuclease, and to a smaller extent accelerated deadenylylation. It is not clea...
