  • Structure and Dynamics of the CCCH-Type Tandem Zinc Finger Domain of POS-1 and Implications for RNA Binding Specificity

    Wednesday, September 25, 2024
    Author(s): Asli Ertekin,Brittany R Morgan,Sean P Ryder,Francesca Massi
    Source: Biochemistry
    CCCH-type tandem zinc finger (TZF) motifs are found in many RNA-binding proteins involved in regulating mRNA stability, translation, and splicing. In Caenorhabditis elegans, several RNA-binding protei...
  • The mex -3 3' untranslated region is essential for reproduction during temperature stress

    Monday, May 27, 2024
    Author(s): Hannah E Brown,Haik V Varderesian,Sara A Keane,Sean P Ryder
    Source: bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology
    Organisms must sense temperature and modify their physiology to survive environmental stress. Elevated temperature reduces fertility in most sexually reproducing organisms. Maternally supplied mRNAs a...
  • A nematode model to evaluate microdeletion phenotype expression

    Monday, November 13, 2023
    Author(s): Katianna R Antkowiak,Peren Coskun,Sharon T Noronha,Davide Tavella,Francesca Massi,Sean P Ryder

    Microdeletion syndromes are genetic diseases caused by multilocus chromosomal deletions too small to be detected by karyotyping. They are typified by complex pleiotropic developmental phenotypes that ...
  • The role of RNA-binding proteins in orchestrating germline development in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Monday, January 23, 2023
    Author(s): Mennatallah M Y Albarqi,Sean P Ryder
    Source: Frontiers in cell and developmental biology
    RNA passed from parents to progeny controls several aspects of early development. The germline of the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans contains many families of evolutionarily conserved RNA...
  • The endogenous mex-3 3´UTR is required for germline repression and contributes to optimal fecundity in C. elegans

    Monday, August 23, 2021
    Author(s): Mennatallah M Y Albarqi,Sean P Ryder
    Source: PLoS genetics
    RNA regulation is essential to successful reproduction. Messenger RNAs delivered from parent to progeny govern early embryonic development. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are the key effectors of this pr...
  • Analysis of Emerging Variants in Structured Regions of the SARS-CoV-2 Genome
