Abstract G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-classical DNA or RNA secondary structures that
have been first observed decades ago. Over the years, these four-stranded structural motifs …

G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical secondary nucleic acid structures. Sequences with
the potential to form G4s are abundant in regulatory regions of the genome including …

Drosophila Smaug and its orthologs comprise a family of mRNA repressor proteins that
exhibit various functions during animal development. Smaug proteins contain a …

Summary G-quadruplexes (G4s) are stable, noncanonical structures formed in guanine (G)-
rich sequences of DNA/RNA. G4 structures are reported to play a regulatory role in various …

In plants, cytoplasmic mRNA decay is critical for posttranscriptionally controlling gene
expression and for maintaining cellular RNA homeostasis. Arabidopsis DCP1-ASSOCIATED …

Cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granules are membraneless structures composed of
various RNAs and proteins that play important roles in post‐transcriptional regulation. While …

We describe MIP-1 and MIP-2, novel paralogous C. elegans germ granule components that
interact with the intrinsically disordered MEG-3 protein. These proteins promote P granule …

Abstract Development of the ocular lens–a transparent tissue capable of sustaining frequent
shape changes for optimal focusing power–pushes the boundaries of what cells can …

DNA methylation is one of the key epigenetic regulatory mechanisms in development and
spermatogenesis. However, the dynamic regulatory mechanisms of genome-wide DNA …

In eukaryotes, general mRNA decay requires the decapping complex. The activity of this
complex depends on its catalytic subunit, DECAPPING2 (DCP2), and its interaction with …
