Abstract
Recent work indicates that the posttranscriptional control of eukaryotic gene expression is much more elaborate and extensive than previously thought, with essentially every step of messenger RNA (mRNA) metabolism being subject to regulation in an mRNA-specific manner. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of eukaryotic gene expression requires an appreciation for how the lives of mRNAs are influenced by a wide array of diverse regulatory mechanisms.

Non-coding RNA

TL;DR: RNAs appear to comprise a hidden layer of internal signals that control various levels of gene expression in physiology and development, including chromatin architecture/epigenetic memory, transcription, RNA splicing, editing, translation and turnover.

N6-methyladenosine Modulates Messenger RNA Translation Efficiency

TL;DR: In a unified mechanism of m(6)A-based regulation in the cytoplasm, YTHDF2-mediated degradation controls the lifetime of target transcripts, whereasYTHDF1-mediated translation promotion increases translation efficiency, ensuring effective protein production from dynamic transcripts that are marked by m( 6)A.

The evolution of gene regulation by transcription factors and microRNAs

TL;DR: This work proposes a simple model that describes the transcriptional regulation of new microRNAs, a large class of small, non-coding RNAs in plants and animals, focusing on the evolution of the individual regulators and their binding sites.

Widespread Shortening of 3 0 UTRs by Alternative Cleavage and Polyadenylation Activates Oncogenes in Cancer Cells

TL;DR: The high incidence of APA in cancer cells, with consequent loss of 3'UTR repressive elements, suggests a pervasive role forAPA in oncogene activation without genetic alteration.

Global analysis of protein expression in yeast

TL;DR: A Saccharomyces cerevisiae fusion library is created where each open reading frame is tagged with a high-affinity epitope and expressed from its natural chromosomal location, and it is found that about 80% of the proteome is expressed during normal growth conditions.

Comparing protein abundance and mRNA expression levels on a genomic scale

TL;DR: This work merges many of the available yeast protein-abundance datasets, using the resulting larger 'meta-dataset' to find correlations between protein and mRNA expression, both globally and within smaller categories.

Messenger-RNA-binding proteins and the messages they carry.

TL;DR: From sites of transcription in the nucleus to the outreaches of the cytoplasm, messenger RNAs are associated with RNA-binding proteins that communicate crucial information to the translation machinery for the surveillance of nonsense mutations and for mRNA localization and translation.

Stress granules and processing bodies are dynamically linked sites of mRNP remodeling

TL;DR: It is proposed that mRNA released from disassembled polysomes is sorted and remodeled at SGs, from which selected transcripts are delivered to PBs for degradation, an interaction that is promoted by the related mRNA decay factors TTP and BRF1.
