MicroRNA expression and functions in viral infections
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, noncoding RNAs that have emerged as powerful players in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. In the context of viral infections, cellular miRNAs play significant roles in modulating the co...

Endogenous eukaryotic CHO-K1 cell promoters as tools to improve the production of a difficult-to-express recombinant protein
Recombinant proteins with applications in human and veterinary medicine are mainly produced in mammalian expression systems, particularly Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Although these cells enable proper folding and post-translationa...

The Goldilocks state of transcriptional readthrough for chimeric splicing
Transcription termination is an essential step in gene expression. Termination of transcription by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) at most mRNA genes is coupled to cleavage and polyadenylation (CPA) (re...

RNA polymerase II removal: transcription quality control and gene regulation
To produce a single RNA transcript, Pol II progresses through multiple, tightly regulated steps of the transcription cycle. This progression is characterized by extensive remodeling of the transcri...

Isoform-resolved transcriptomics reveals stage-specific isoform switching and protein domain remodeling in Helicoverpa armigera
1. Transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation play a key role in morphological evolution by generating proteomic diversity [1]. Among these, alternative splicing (AS) is one of the most im...

Promoter contacts by TFB and TFEα during archaeal transcription initiation
The archaeal transcription machinery is highly homologous to the core transcription machinery in eukaryotes, while notably less similar to that of bacteria. Archaeal RNAPs contain from 11 to 13 sub...

miRNA dynamics in development: orchestrators of gene expression and cell fate
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are central regulators of gene expression, shaping cell fate, tissue identity, and organismal physiology. From the earliest stages of development through later processes of tissue differentiation, miRNAs operate within...

XAB2: a link between RNA metabolism, DNA damage repair, and human health
Cells have evolved multiple mechanisms to preserve genome integrity, collectively known as DNA damage response (DDR). Rather than acting separately, the DDR often interacts with transcription and mRNA splicing; however, the underlying mo...
