The N7‐methylguanosine cap is a hallmark of the 5′ end of eukaryotic mRNAs and is
required for gene expression. Loss of the cap was believed to lead irreversibly to decay …

Cap homeostasis is a cyclical process of decapping and recapping that impacts a portion of
the mRNA transcriptome. The metastable uncapped forms of recapping targets redistribute …

The 5′ N 7-methylguanosine cap is a critical modification for mRNAs and many other RNAs
in eukaryotic cells. Recent studies have uncovered an RNA 5′ capping quality surveillance …

The control of messenger RNA (mRNA) translation and degradation is important in
regulation of eukaryotic gene expression. In the general and specialized mRNA decay …

The 5′ terminus of trypanosome mRNA is protected by a hypermethylated cap 4 derived
from spliced leader (SL) RNA. Trypanosoma brucei nuclear capping enzyme with cap …

The notion that decapping leads irreversibly to messenger RNA (mRNA) decay was
contradicted by the identification of capped transcripts missing portions of their 5′ ends and …

The 5′ m7G cap is an evolutionarily conserved modification of eukaryotic mRNA. Decades
of research have established that the m7G cap serves as a unique molecular module that …

The addition of the methyl-7-guanosine (m7G)“cap” on the 5'ends of coding and some non-
coding RNAs is essential for their protein coding capacity and biochemical activity …

Most functional eukaryotic mRNAs contain a 5′ 7-methylguanosine (m7G) cap. Although
capping is essential for many biological processes including mRNA processing, export and …

Recently a new type of 5′‐RNA cap was discovered. In contrast to the specialized
eukaryotic m7G cap, the novel caps are abundant cellular cofactors like NAD+. RNAs …
