Open AccessThe RNA-binding ubiquitin ligase MKRN1 functions in ribosome-associated quality control of poly(A) translation
Cells have evolved quality control mechanisms to ensure protein homeostasis by detecting and degrading aberrant mRNAs and proteins. A common source of aberrant mRNAs is premature polyadenylation, which can res...

Open Accessp38-MK2 signaling axis regulates RNA metabolism after UV-light-induced DNA damage
Ultraviolet (UV) light radiation induces the formation of bulky photoproducts in the DNA that globally affect transcription and splicing. However, the signaling pathways and mechanisms that link UV-light-induc...

Open AccessInteraction profiling of RNA-binding ubiquitin ligases reveals a link between posttranscriptional regulation and the ubiquitin system
RNA-binding ubiquitin ligases (RBULs) have the potential to link RNA-mediated mechanisms to protein ubiquitylation. Despite this, the cellular functions, substrates and interaction partners of most RBULs remai...

Cellular receptor structures for pseudorabies virus are blocked by antithrombin III
Pseudorabies virus (PrV), an alphaherpesvirus of swine, uses cellular heparan sulfate residues as a receptor for attachment. Interaction of the virus with its receptor is mediated by the envelope glycoprotein ...

A peptide-model for the heparin-binding property of pseudorabies virus glycoprotein III
The pseudorabies virus glycoprotein III (PrV-gIII) has been identified previously as the major viral component binding to a heparin-like receptor on the surface of target cells. The amino acid sequence of gIII...
