Is there quality control of localized mRNAs?
نویسندگان
چکیده
In eukaryotic cells many mRNAs are localized to specific regions of the cytosol, thereby allowing the local production of proteins. The process of mRNA localization can be coordinated with mRNA turnover, which can also be spatially controlled to increase the degree of mRNA localization. The coordination of mRNA localization, translation repression during transport, and mRNA degradation suggests the hypothesis that an additional layer of mRNA quality control exists in cells to degrade mRNAs that fail to be appropriately localized.

Introduction: Alopecia Areata is a chronic recurrent nonscarring skin disease characterized by sudden Asymptomatic localized hairless. Alopecia Areata can cause emotional and psychosocial distress in affected individuals. Personal appearance due to patchy hairloss may affect patients social relationship and change in quality of life. This study is designed to investigate the effect of Ale...
متن کاملAssociation of maternal mRNA and phosphorylated EIF4EBP1 variants with the spindle in mouse oocytes: localized translational control supporting female meiosis in mammals.
In contrast to other species, localized maternal mRNAs are not believed to be prominent features of mammalian oocytes. We find by cDNA microarray analysis enrichment for maternal mRNAs encoding spindle and other proteins on the mouse oocyte metaphase II (MII) spindle. We also find that the key translational regulator, EIF4EBP1, undergoes a dynamic and complex spatially regulated pattern of phos...
متن کاملThe intracellular localization of messenger RNAs
As I hope this review has made clear, mRNA localization plays an important role in directing specific proteins to their correct position within a cell. Although the study of this process is still in its infancy, it is already apparent that there are several ways that mRNAs can be targeted to particular subcellular sites. However, the molecular mechanisms responsible for these different localiza...
متن کاملMicroRNAs: Critical Regulators of mRNA Traffic and Translational Control with Promising Biotech and Therapeutic Applications
Context:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short, endogenously-initiated, non-coding RNAs that post-transcriptionally control gene expression via translational repression or mRNA turnover. MiRNAs have attracted much attention in recent years as they play critical roles in gene expression and are promising tools with many biotech and therapeutic applications. The molecular mechanisms und...
متن کاملطرح تحلیل تعدادی از mRNA های مادری مخصوص اووسیت در جنین تک سلولی موش
Introduction & Objective: During oogenesis, mRNA is actively transcribed and accumulated in the growing oocytes, and then the transcription stops. Transcription silencing will continue during early embryonic stages at least up to the time when the embryonic genome is activated. Thus the earliest stages of embryogenesis in mammals and other animal species are depending on stored maternal RNAs an...
