Journal ArticleDOI
Extensive translation of circular RNAs driven by N 6 -methyladenosine
Yun Yang,Xiaojuan Fan,Miaowei Mao,Miaowei Mao,Xiaowei Song,Xiaowei Song,Ping Wu,Yang Zhang,Yongfeng Jin,Yi Yang,Ling-Ling Chen,Yang Wang,Catherine C. L. Wong,Xinshu Xiao,Zefeng Wang,Zefeng Wang +15 more
TL;DR: This study reports that N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant base modification of RNA, promotes efficient initiation of protein translation from circRNAs in human cells and suggests a role of circRNA-derived proteins in cellular responses to environmental stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origins and evolution of ADAR‐mediated RNA editing
Yongfeng Jin,Wenjing Zhang,Qi Li +2 more
TL;DR: Considering the constrained structure, ADAR targets are proposed to have evolved from transposable elements and repeats, random selection, and fixation, and intermolecular pairs of sense and antisense RNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
RNA secondary structure in mutually exclusive splicing
Yun Yang,Leilei Zhan,Wenjing Zhang,Feng Sun,Wenfeng Wang,Nan Tian,Jingpei Bi,Haitao Wang,Dike Shi,Yajian Jiang,Yao-Zhou Zhang,Yongfeng Jin +11 more
TL;DR: Combined evidence revealed the triple functions of these inter-intronic RNA pairings in synergistically ensuring the selection of only one of multiple exons, through activation of the proximal variable exon outside the loop by the approximation of cis elements, and simultaneous repression of the exon within the loop.
Journal ArticleDOI
New insights into RNA secondary structure in the alternative splicing of pre-mRNAs.
Yongfeng Jin,Yun Yang,Peng Zhang +2 more
TL;DR: Several recent discoveries related to the role of RNA secondary structure in alternative splicing and the underlying mechanisms are reviewed, including an RNA pairing-based mechanism that ensures the selection of only one of several available exons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and characteristics of microRNAs from Bombyx mori
Ping-An He,Zuoming Nie,Jianqing Chen,Jian Chen,Zhengbing Lv,Qing Sheng,Song-Ping Zhou,Xiaolian Gao,Xiaolian Gao,Lingyin Kong,Xiangfu Wu,Yongfeng Jin,Yao-Zhou Zhang +12 more
TL;DR: Functional analysis revealed that 11 miRNAs may regulate 13 B. mori orthologs of the 25 known Drosophila miRNA-targeted genes according to the functional conservation, and methylation can increase the sensitivity of a DNA probe used to detect a miRNA by Northern blotting.
