Generation and in Planta Functional Analysis of Potato Virus Y mutants

[Abstract]  Potato virus Y (PVY), the type member of the genus Potyvirus (family Potyviridae), is the most widespread virus affecting potato and is included in the top five most economically detrimental plant viruses. Recently, the structure of the PVY virion has been determined by cryo-electron microscopy, which has opened the doors to functional studies that explore the involvement of selected amino acids in different stages of the viral cycle. The only way to functionally challenge in planta the role of particular amino acids in the coat protein of PVY, or in other viral proteins, is by using cDNA clones. The use and manipulation of PVY cDNA clones, unlike those of other potyviruses, has been traditionally impaired by the toxicity that certain sequences within the PVY ... [摘要]   [摘要] 马铃薯Y病毒(PVY)是马铃薯Y病毒属(Potyvirus,Potyvirus,Potyvirus科)的模式成员,是危害马铃薯最广泛的病毒之一,被列为最具经济危害性的五大植物病毒之一。最近,低温电子显微镜技术已经确定了PVY病毒离子的结构,这为功能性研究打开了大门,可以探索在病毒周期的不同阶段中所选择的氨基酸的参与。唯一能在植物体内挑战PVY外壳蛋白或其它病毒蛋白中特定氨基酸的作用的方法是使用cDNA克隆。与其他马铃薯Y病毒不同,PVY cDNA克隆的使用和操作一直受到PVY基因组中某些序列对大肠杆菌的毒性的影响。在这里,我们描述了一个已发表的PVY cDNA克隆,它含有克服上述毒性的内含子,以探索不同外壳蛋白修饰对病毒感染的影响。该方案包括在大肠杆菌中操作cDNA克隆,用构建的克隆对植物进行生物接种,观察对植物的生物学效应,通过逆转录定量PCR对cDNA克隆进行定量,并通过透射电镜证实病毒离子的形成。未来的可能性包括使用荧光蛋白报告者标记的PVY cDNA克隆,以进一步深入了解外壳蛋白突变对PVY病毒离子细胞间运动的影响。

Detection and Analysis of Circular RNAs by RT-PCR

[Abstract]  Gene expression in eukaryotic cells is tightly regulated at the transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels. Posttranscriptional processes, including pre-mRNA splicing, mRNA export, mRNA turnover, and mRNA translation, are controlled by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and noncoding (nc)RNAs. The vast family of ncRNAs comprises diverse regulatory RNAs, such as microRNAs and long noncoding (lnc)RNAs, but also the poorly explored class of circular (circ)RNAs. Although first discovered more than three decades ago by electron microscopy, only the advent of high-throughput RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) and the development of innovative bioinformatic pipelines have begun to allow the systematic identification of circRNAs (Szabo and Salzman, 2016; Panda et al., 2017b; Panda et al., ... [摘要]  真核细胞中的基因表达在转录和转录后水平受到严格调控。 mRNA转录,mRNA转录和mRNA翻译等后转录过程由RNA结合蛋白(RBPs)和非编码(nc)RNAs控制。大量的ncRNA家族包含多种调控RNA,如microRNAs和长的非编码(lnc)RNAs,但也是探索不足的一类环状RNAs。虽然三十多年前电子显微镜首次发现,但只有高通量RNA测序(RNA-seq)的出现和创新生物信息学管道的开发已经开始允许系统鉴定circRNA(Szabo和Salzman,2016;熊猫,2017b;熊猫等,2017c)。然而,通过RNA测序鉴定的真正的circRNA的验证需要其他分子生物学技术,包括常规或定量(q)聚合酶链反应(PCR)和Northern印迹分析(Jeck和Sharpless,2014)的逆转录(RT)。使用不同引物的环状RNA的RT-qPCR分析已被广泛用于检测,验证和有时定量circRNA(Abdelmohsen等人,2015和2017; Panda等人, ,2017b)。如在此详述的,设计为跨越循环RNA后接连接序列的分歧引物可以特异性扩增circRNA而不是对应的线性RNA。总之,使用不同引物的RT-PCR分析允许直接检测和定量circRNA。

【背景】CircRNAs是共价闭合的,缺少5'或3'末端的单链RNA。虽然它们的起源知之甚少,但它们可以通过称为反向剪接的过程从前体mRNA产生(Panda等人,2017d; ...

Polysome Fractionation to Analyze mRNA Distribution Profiles

[Abstract]  Eukaryotic cells adapt to changes in external or internal signals by precisely modulating the expression of specific gene products. The expression of protein-coding genes is controlled at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Among the latter steps, the regulation of translation is particularly important in cellular processes that require rapid changes in protein expression patterns. The translational efficiency of mRNAs is altered by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and noncoding (nc)RNAs such as microRNAs (Panda et al., 2014a and 2014b; Abdelmohsen et al., 2014). The impact of factors that regulate selective mRNA translation is a critical question in RNA biology. Polyribosome (polysome) fractionation analysis is a powerful method to assess the association of ... [摘要]  真核细胞通过精确调节特定基因产物的表达来适应外部或内部信号的变化。蛋白质编码基因的表达受到转录和转录后水平的控制。在后面的步骤中,翻译的调节在需要蛋白质表达模式快速变化的细胞过程中特别重要。 mRNA的翻译效率由RNA结合蛋白(RBP)和非编码(nc)RNA如微RNA(Panda等人,2014a和2014b; Abdelmohsen等人)改变2014)。调节选择性mRNA翻译的因素的影响是RNA生物学中的一个关键问题。多核糖体(多核糖体)分馏分析是评估核糖体与给定mRNA的关联的有效方法。它提供了关于该mRNA的翻译状态的有价值的信息,这取决于与它们相关联的核糖体的数目,并且鉴定未翻译的mRNA(Panda等人,2016)。与许多核糖体相关的mRNA形成大量的多核糖体,预计将被主动翻译,而与少数或没有核糖体相关的mRNA有可能翻译不佳。总之,多聚糖分馏分析允许直接测定整个转录组水平的翻译效率以及个体mRNA。
