Plastid-specific RsmD methyltransferase and ribosome maturation factor RimM are crucial for 16S rRNA maturation and proteostasis

Preprint · 2022 ABSTRACT Chloroplast pre-ribosomal RNA (rRNA) undergoes maturation, which is critical for ribosome assembly. While the central and auxiliary factors in rRNA maturation have been elucidated in bacteria, their mode of action remains largely unexplo ... Full text Cite

Translational inhibition and phase separation primes the epigenetic silencing of transposons

Preprint · 2020 Transposons are mobile DNAs that can cause fatal mutations. To counteract these genome invaders, the host genomes deploy small interfering (si) RNAs to initiate and establish the epigenetic silencing. However, the regulatory mechanisms for the selective re ... Full text Cite
