PRD: A protein–RNA interaction database
نویسندگان
چکیده
UNLABELLED Although protein-RNA interactions (PRIs) are involved in various important cellular processes, compiled data on PRIs are still limited. This contrasts with protein-protein interactions, which have been intensively recorded in public databases and subjected to network level analysis. Here, we introduce PRD, an online database of PRIs, dispersed across several sources, including scientific literature. Currently, over 10,000 interactions have been stored in PRD using PSI-MI 2.5, which is a standard model for describing detailed molecular interactions, with an emphasis on gene level data. Users can browse all recorded interactions and execute flexible keyword searches against the database via a web interface. Our database is not only a reference of PRIs, but will also be a valuable resource for studying characteristics of PRI networks. AVAILABILITY PRD can be freely accessed at http://pri.hgc.jp/

Using the Protein-protein Interaction Network to Identifying the Biomarkers in Evolution of the Oocyte
Background Oocyte maturity includes nuclear and cytoplasmic maturity, both of which are important for embryo fertilization. The development of oocyte is not limited to the period of follicular growth, and starts from the embryonic period and continues throughout life. In this study, for the purpose of evaluating the effect of the FSH hormone on the expression of genes, GEO access codes for this...

متن کاملperiod-1 encodes an ATP-dependent RNA helicase that influences nutritional compensation of the Neurospora circadian clock.
Mutants in the period-1 (prd-1) gene, characterized by a recessive allele, display a reduced growth rate and period lengthening of the developmental cycle controlled by the circadian clock. We refined the genetic location of prd-1 and used whole genome sequencing to find the mutation defining it, confirming the identity of prd-1 by rescuing the mutant circadian phenotype via transformation. PRD...
متن کاملStress granule assembly is mediated by prion-like aggregation of TIA-1.
TIA-1 is an RNA binding protein that promotes the assembly of stress granules (SGs), discrete cytoplasmic inclusions into which stalled translation initiation complexes are dynamically recruited in cells subjected to environmental stress. The RNA recognition motifs of TIA-1 are linked to a glutamine-rich prion-related domain (PRD). Truncation mutants lacking the PRD domain do not induce spontan...
متن کاملRegulation of cortactin/dynamin interaction by actin polymerization during the fission of clathrin-coated pits.
Separation of clathrin-coated pits from the plasma membrane, a key event during endocytosis, is thought to be driven by dynamin and the actin cytoskeleton. However, the mechanism for the actin-mediated endocytosis remains elusive. RNA interference-mediated suppression of cortactin, an F-actin binding protein that promotes Arp2/3 complex-mediated actin polymerization, effectively blocked transfe...
