A census of human RNA-binding proteins.

TL;DR: This work presents a census of 1,542 manually curated RBPs that are analysed for their interactions with different classes of RNA, their evolutionary conservation, their abundance and their tissue-specific expression, a critical step towards the comprehensive characterization of proteins involved in human RNA metabolism.

An overview of pre‐ribosomal RNA processing in eukaryotes

TL;DR: A consensus scheme of pre‐ribosomal RNA maturation is emerging from studies in various kinds of eukaryotic organisms, including small nucleolar ribonucleoparticles, but major differences between mammalian and yeast pre-ribosome RNA processing have recently come to light.

Ribosome biogenesis in cancer: new players and therapeutic avenues

TL;DR: The most recent findings that provide new insights into the molecular basis of ribosome biogenesis in cancer are highlighted and the perspective on how these observations present opportunities for the design of new targeted cancer treatments is offered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tuning the ribosome: The influence of rRNA modification on eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis and function

TL;DR: Changes in the rRNA modification pattern have been observed in response to environmental changes, during development, and in disease, which suggests that rRNA modifications may contribute to the translational control of gene expression.

Global analysis of protein localization in budding yeast

TL;DR: The construction and analysis of a collection of yeast strains expressing full-length, chromosomally tagged green fluorescent protein fusion proteins helps reveal the logic of transcriptional co-regulation, and provides a comprehensive view of interactions within and between organelles in eukaryotic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

The multifunctional nucleolus

TL;DR: Although the nucleolus is primarily associated with ribosome biogenesis, several lines of evidence now show that it has additional functions, such as regulation of mitosis, cell-cycle progression and proliferation, many forms of stress response and biogenesis of multiple ribonucleoprotein particles.

High mobility of proteins in the mammalian cell nucleus

Robert D. Phair, +1 more
- 06 Apr 2000 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that many nuclear proteins roam the cell nucleus in vivo and that nuclear compartments are the reflection of the steady-state association/dissociation of its ‘residents’ with the nucleoplasmic space.

Nucleolar proteome dynamics

TL;DR: The data establish a quantitative proteomic approach for the temporal characterization of protein flux through cellular organelles and demonstrate that the nucleolar proteome changes significantly over time in response to changes in cellular growth conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Directed proteomic analysis of the human nucleolus.

TL;DR: This extensive proteomic analysis of human nucleoli shows that nucleoli have a surprisingly large protein complexity and supports the view that the nucleolus may perform additional functions beyond its known role in ribosome subunit biogenesis.
