Yeast RNA helicases of the DEAD-box family involved in translation initiation.

Abstract:

:RNA helicases of the DEAD-box and related families have been found to be required for all processes involving RNA molecules. Biochemical and genetic analyses have shown that at least two RNA helicases are required for translation initiation in yeast. Although it is generally believed that these enzymes are necessary to unwind secondary structures in the 5' untranslated region of mRNAs, their exact role has not been convincingly shown. We discuss here our present knowledge of the function of eIF4A and Ded1p, two DEAD-box proteins required for translation in eukaryotic cells.

  • RNA interference of metastasis-associated gene 1 inhibits metastasis of B16F10 melanoma cells in a C57BL/6 mouse model.

    abstract:BACKGROUND INFORMATION:MTA1 (metastasis-associated gene 1) has been reported to be overexpressed in cancers with high potential to metastasize. Studies of the molecular mechanisms revealed that MTA1 plays an important role in the process of metastasis of many types of cancer. However, the role of MTA1 in melanoma devel...
