3′-untranslated regions (3′-UTRs) are the noncoding parts of mRNAs. Compared to
yeast, in humans, median 3′-UTR length has expanded approximately tenfold alongside …

Cytoplasmic messenger RNA localization is a key post-transcriptional mechanism of
establishing spatially restricted protein synthesis. The characterization of cis-acting signals …

Cell Movements vividly describes how complex movements can arise from the properties
and behaviors of biological molecules. This second edition is updated throughout with …

RNA binding proteins (RBPs) control the fate and expression of a transcriptome. Despite this
fundamental importance, our understanding of plant RBPs is rudimentary, being mainly …

Molecular phylogeny and biogeochemistry indicate that eukaryotes differentiated early in
Earth history. Sequence comparisons of small-subunit ribosomal RNA genes suggest a …

Plant root hair formation is initiated when specialized elongating root epidermis cells
(trichoblasts) assemble distinct domains at the plasma membrane/cell wall cell periphery …

The vertical migration of zooplankton into lower and darker water strata by day is generally
explained by the avoidance of visually orienting predators, mainly fish,,,; however, it is …

RNA molecules and proteins are accumulated in the oocyte cytoplasm during its growth
phase and are used to sustain the early phases of embryonic development before embryo …

Stable cytoplasmic bridges (or ring canals) connecting the clone of spermatids are assumed
to facilitate the sharing of haploid gene products and synchronous development of the cells …

The RNA-binding protein Y14 binds preferentially to mRNAs produced by splicing and is a
component of a multiprotein complex that assembles∼ 20 nucleotides upstream of exon …
