Ribosomal proteins: the missing piece in the inflammation puzzle?
Ribosomal proteins (RPs) are constituents of macromolecular machinery, ribosome that translates genetic information into proteins. Besides ribosomal...

Regulation of translation by site-specific ribosomal RNA methylation
Ribosomes are complex ribozymes that interpret genetic information by translating messenger RNA (mRNA) into proteins. Natural variation in ribosome...

Regulation of ribosomal RNA gene copy number, transcription and nucleolus organization in eukaryotes
One of the first biological machineries to be created seems to have been the ribosome. Since then, organisms have dedicated great efforts to optimize...

The structure of a human translation initiation complex reveals two independent roles for the helicase eIF4A
Eukaryotic translation initiation involves recruitment of the 43S pre-initiation complex to the 5′ end of mRNA by the cap-binding complex eIF4F,...
-
Start codon-associated ribosomal frameshifting mediates nutrient stress adaptation
A translating ribosome is typically thought to follow the reading frame defined by the selected start codon. Using super-resolution ribosome...

Gemin5-dependent RNA association with polysomes enables selective translation of ribosomal and histone mRNAs
Selective translation allows to orchestrate the expression of specific proteins in response to different signals through the concerted action of...

Probing the RNA Structure-Dependent RNA Regulations and Functions
RNAs form complex structures in vivo to perform diverse functions. These RNA structures dynamically change in response to internal cellular... -
Cell entry and release of quasi-enveloped human hepatitis viruses
Infectious hepatitis type A and type E are caused by phylogenetically distinct single-stranded, positive-sense RNA viruses that were once considered...

Structure of the ISW1a complex bound to the dinucleosome
Nucleosomes are basic repeating units of chromatin and form regularly spaced arrays in cells. Chromatin remodelers alter the positions of nucleosomes...

Comparative genome-wide analysis of circular RNAs in Brassica napus L.: target-site versus non-target-site resistance to herbicide stress
Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a class of non-coding RNA molecules, are recognized for their unique functions; however, their responses to herbicide...

Detection of RNA Structure and Interactions Using Nanopore Technology
RNA molecules are highly versatile and dynamic components within cells that orchestrate fundamental molecular biological processes, including... -
Structure and Functions of RNA G-quadruplexes
G-quadruplexes (G4s) are four-stranded nucleic acid secondary structures that are formed by the stacking of square planar guanine arrangements and... -
Dynamics of Eukaryotic mRNA Structure during Translation
AbstractCurrently, there is no single concept of the optimal spatial structure of mRNA during translation. It is known that many proteins, associated...
