Deadenylation of mRNA is often the first and rate-limiting step in mRNA decay. PARN, a poly(A)-specific 3' --> 5' ribonuclease which is conserved in many eukaryotes, has been proposed to be primarily ...
PARN is a poly(A)-specific ribonuclease that degrades the poly(A) tail of mRNA. We have established conditions for expressing soluble recombinant human PARN. We investigated different Escherichia coli...
Poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN) is a processive, poly(A)-specific 3' exoribonuclease. The crystal structure of C-terminal truncated human PARN determined in two states (free and RNA-bound forms) ...
Poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN) is a cap-interacting and poly(A)-specific 3'-exoribonuclease that efficiently degrades mRNA poly(A) tails. Based on the enzyme's preference for its natural substra...
Accumulating evidence suggests that mRNA degradation systems are crucial for various biological processes in eukaryotes. Here we provide evidence that an mRNA degradation system is associated with som...
Poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN) is a cap-interacting deadenylase that mediates, together with other exonucleases, the eukaryotic mRNA turnover and thus is actively involved in the regulation of g...
In an effort to understand the genetic variation in porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) isolates in Taiwan, 40 isolates obtained between 2004 and 2006 were analyzed for their s...
PARN, a poly(A)-specific ribonuclease, binds the 5' cap-structure of mRNA and initiates deadenylation-dependent decay. Eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) also binds to the cap structure, an inter...
