APOBEC-mediated viral restriction: not simply editing? 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The APOBEC family of cytidine deaminases inhibit the mobility of diverse retroviruses, retrotransposons and other viruses. Initial reports proposed that these effects were due to the DNA editing capabilities of these enzymes; however, many recent studies have provided evidence suggesting that APOBEC proteins can inhibit these elements by several mechanisms, including editing-dependent and editing-independent processes. Investigating these modes of action and the potential contribution that each one makes to the antiviral activities of various APOBEC proteins is vital if we are to understand how APOBEC proteins protect host genomes from invading nucleic acids. 相似文献

The chemical modification of nucleic acids is a ubiquitous phenomenon. Aminoacylation of tRNAs by aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (ARSs) is a reaction essentially devoted to protein synthesis but it is used also as an emergency mechanism to recycle stalled ribosomes, and it is required for genome replication in some RNA viruses. In several aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases a correction mechanism known as editing is present to prevent aminoacylation errors. Genome data reveal a growing number of open reading frames encoding ARS-like proteins. This strongly suggests the existence of a widespread and nonconventional machinery for aminoacylation and editing. Here we review the different biological functions of aminoacylation and editing; also we propose an evolutionary scenario for the origin of these two reactions, and hypothesize an extant role for RNA charging and editing outside the genetic code. 相似文献

The vast majority of the ca. 100 chemically distinct modified nucleosides in RNA appear to arise via the chemical transformation of a genetically encoded nucleoside. Two notable exceptions are queuosine and pseudouridine, which are incorporated into tRNA via transglycosylation. Transglycosylation is an extremely efficient process for incorporating highly modified bases such as queuine into RNA. Transglycosylation is also a requisite process for "isomerizing" an N-nucleoside into a C-nucleoside as is the case for pseudouridine formation. Finally, transglycosylation is an attractive possibility for certain RNA editing events (e.g., pyrimidine to purine conversions) that cannot occur via the known, more straightforward enzymatic reactions (e.g., deaminations). This review discusses what is known about the mechanisms of transglycosylation for the queuine and pseudouridine RNA modifications and will speculate about a potential role for transglycosylation in certain RNA editing events. 相似文献

Jean Rouch and Edgar Morin's Chronicle of a Summer is held up as an innovative, seminal “work in the formation of cinéma‐vérité, and has a central position in the development of documentary and ethnographic filmmaking. Although much has been written about fthis film, little attention has been paid to the film's construction. This paper examines ‘elements of the editing structure of Chronicle of a Summer both to consider how this “work was shaped given the constraints of its production and intended reception and to ¦ analyze a relatively neglected aspect of documentary film practice. 相似文献

It was shown previously that the REL1 mitochondrial RNA ligase in Trypanosoma brucei was a vital gene and disruption affected RNA editing in vivo, whereas the REL2 RNA ligase gene could be down-regulated with no effect on cell growth or on RNA editing. We performed down-regulation of REL1 in procyclic T. brucei (midgut insect forms) by RNA interference and found a 40-50% inhibition of Cyb editing, which has only U-insertions, as well as a similar inhibition of ND7 editing, which has both U-insertions and U-deletions. In addition, both U-insertion and U-deletion in vitro pre-cleaved editing were inhibited to similar extents. We also found little if any effect of REL1 down-regulation on the sedimentation coefficient or abundance of the RNA ligase-containing L-complex (Aphasizhev, R., Aphasizheva, I., Nelson, R. E., Gao, G., Simpson, A. M., Kang, X., Falick, A. M., Sbicego, S., and Simpson, L. (2003) EMBO J. 22, 913-924), suggesting that the inhibition of both insertion and deletion editing was not due to a disruption of the L-complex. Together with the evidence that down-regulation of REL2 has no effect on cell growth or on RNA editing in vivo or in vitro, these data suggest that the REL1 RNA ligase may be active in vivo in both U-insertion and U-deletion editing. The in vivo biological role of REL2 remains obscure. 相似文献
