Challenges of Predicting Effects of RNA Splicing
The current tools available to predict RNA splicing effects are explored in a recent review.
Roles of the Endonuclease Regnase-1/MCPIP1 in Controlling Immune Responses and Beyond
Regnase-1 is critical for the degradation of mRNAs involved in immune responses as well as other various biological processes.
Measuring Protein-RNA Interactions Inside Living Cells
Methods to capture protein-RNA interactions. Different techniques are required to capture single-stranded (green), double-stranded (blue), and indirect (yellow) RNA interactions. Crosses (X) in red mark RNA sites that are crosslinked to the RNA binding protein.
Chromatin-associated non-coding RNAs in development and inheritance
The diverse roles of chromatin-associated non-coding RNAs.
Urinary microRNAs for Prostate Cancer Diagnosis, Prognosis, and Treatment Response – Are We There Yet?
Despite the tremendous progress in research over the years, a suitable minimally invasive prostate cancer (PCa) biomarker is yet to be discovered.
Emerging Roles of hnRNPA1 in Modulating Malignant Transformation
hnRNPA1 is involved in multiple biological processes within the cell nucleus and cytoplasm.
The LARPs, La and related RNA-binding Proteins: Structures, Functions, and Evolving Perspectives
La and its link to RNA polymerase III were significant in the great expansions of the tRNAomes that occurred in eukaryotes. Four families of La-related proteins (LARPs) emerged during eukaryotic evolution with specialized functions.
