The mRNA Decay Factor CAR-1/LSM14 Regulates Axon Regeneration via Mitochondrial Calcium Dynamics.
Current biology : CB · 2020 · 30(5): 865-876.e7
mRNA decay factors regulate mRNA turnover by recruiting non-translating mRNAs and targeting them for translational repression and mRNA degradation. How mRNA decay pathways regulate cellular function in vivo with specificity is poorly understood. Here, we show that C. elegans mRNA …

Disruption in A-to-I Editing Levels Affects C. elegans Development More Than a Complete Lack of Editing.
Cell reports · 2019 · 27(4): 1244-1253.e4
A-to-I RNA editing, catalyzed by ADAR proteins, is widespread in eukaryotic transcriptomes. Studies showed that, in C. elegans, ADR-2 can actively deaminate dsRNA, whereas ADR-1 cannot. Therefore, we set out to study the effect of each of the ADAR genes …

The <i>C. elegans</i> neural editome reveals an ADAR target mRNA required for proper chemotaxis.
eLife · 2017 · 6
ADAR proteins alter gene expression both by catalyzing adenosine (A) to inosine (I) RNA editing and binding to regulatory elements in target RNAs. Loss of ADARs affects neuronal function in all animals studied to date. <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> lacking ADARs exhibit …

A Small RNA-Catalytic Argonaute Pathway Tunes Germline Transcript Levels to Ensure Embryonic Divisions.
Cell · 2016 · 165(2): 396-409
Multiple division cycles without growth are a characteristic feature of early embryogenesis. The female germline loads proteins and RNAs into oocytes to support these divisions, which lack many quality control mechanisms operating in somatic cells undergoing growth. Here, we describe …

The Period protein homolog LIN-42 negatively regulates microRNA biogenesis in C. elegans.
Developmental biology · 2014 · 390(2): 126-35
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression in many multicellular organisms. They are encoded in the genome and transcribed into primary (pri-) miRNAs before two processing steps that ultimately produce the mature miRNA. In order to generate …

The dsRBP and inactive editor ADR-1 utilizes dsRNA binding to regulate A-to-I RNA editing across the C. elegans transcriptome.
Cell reports · 2014 · 6(4): 599-607
Inadequate adenosine-to-inosine editing of noncoding regions occurs in disease but is often uncorrelated with ADAR levels, underscoring the need to study deaminase-independent control of editing. C. elegans have two ADAR proteins, ADR-2 and the theoretically catalytically inactive ADR-1. Using high-throughput …

Functional genomic analysis of the let-7 regulatory network in Caenorhabditis elegans.
PLoS genetics · 2013 · 9(3): e1003353
The let-7 microRNA (miRNA) regulates cellular differentiation across many animal species. Loss of let-7 activity causes abnormal development in Caenorhabditis elegans and unchecked cellular proliferation in human cells, which contributes to tumorigenesis. These defects are due to improper expression of …

LIN-28 co-transcriptionally binds primary let-7 to regulate miRNA maturation in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Nature structural & molecular biology · 2011 · 18(3): 302-8
The highly conserved let-7 microRNA (miRNA) regulates developmental pathways across animal phyla. Mis-expression of let-7 causes lethality in C. elegans and has been associated with several human diseases. We show that timing of let-7 expression in developing worms is under …

Comprehensive discovery of endogenous Argonaute binding sites in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Nature structural & molecular biology · 2010 · 17(2): 173-9
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression by guiding Argonaute proteins to specific target mRNA sequences. Identification of bona fide miRNA target sites in animals is challenging because of uncertainties regarding the base-pairing requirements between miRNA and target as well as the …
