Characterization of the mRNA untranslated regions [UTR] of the Trypanosoma cruzi LYT1 isoforms derived by alternative trans-splicing by César Augusto Ramírez, Julián Camilo Casas, María Isabel Ospina, José María Requena, Concepción J. Puerta

“…In trypanosomatids, gene expression is mainly regulated at posttranscriptional level, through mechanisms based on the interaction between RNA Binding Proteins [RBPs] and motifs present in the untranslated regions [UTRs] of them RNAs, which altogether form ribonucleoproteic complexes [RNP] that define the fate of the mRNA. The pre-mRNA derived from the LYT1 gene of Trypanosoma cruzi, is processed by alternative trans-splicing, resulting in different mRNAs which code for the isoforms mLYT1 and kLYT1, proteins having differential expression, cellular location and function. …”

The Porphinoids - Versatile Biological Catalyst Molecules by Bernhard Kräutler

“… The natural porphinoids, such as the iron complex heme, the magnesium complex chlorophyll a, the nickel complex coenzyme F430, and the (corrinoid) cobalt complex coenzyme B12 play central roles in all spheres of life, e.g. as cofactors for oxygen or electron transport, for collecting light and transforming energy, and as catalysts in biosynthesis. – How the porphinoid structures developed in nature, how their often unique properties arise from special interactions between the bound metal ions and the macrocyclic ligands, and to which particular chemical reactivities and modes of action the porphinoids owe their specific biological functions – these are central questions to this topic. …”

Variations in flanking or less conserved positions of Reb1 and Abf1 consensus binding sites lead to major changes in their ability to modulate nucleosome sliding activity by Fernanda Raiqueo, Roberto Amigo, José L. Gutiérrez

“…In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Reb1 and Abf1 are among the transcriptions factors that perform this molecular function. These factors are thought to act as a barrier to nucleosome sliding that chromatin remodeling complexes such as ISW1a perform towards this region, being binding affinity a critical feature to act as a barrier. …”

Identification of subcellular localization of Arabidopsis AGO2 by ZHAO Li, XIA Wenqiang, CAI Xinzhong

“…Some members of AGO family proteins have been found to bind small RNAs, which are generated through the function of DCLs, to form a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), leading to RNA silencing at either transcriptional or post-transcriptional level, thus results in alternation in development, abiotic and biotic stress resistance. …”
