tRNA Modification and Genetic Code Variations in Animal Mitochondria by Kimitsuna Watanabe, Shin-ichi Yokobori

“…We have elucidated that the anticodons of tRNAs deciphering these nonuniversal codons (tRNATrp for UGA, tRNAMet for AUA, tRNAAsn for AAA, and tRNASer and tRNAGly for AGA/AGG) are all modified; tRNATrp has 5-carboxymethylaminomethyluridine or 5-taurinomethyluridine, tRNAMet has 5-formylcytidine or 5-taurinomethyluridine, tRNASer has 7-methylguanosine and tRNAGly has 5-taurinomethyluridine in their anticodon wobble position, and tRNAAsn has pseudouridine in the anticodon second position. This review aims to clarify the structural relationship between these nonuniversal codons and the corresponding tRNA anticodons including modified nucleosides and to speculate on the possible mechanisms for explaining the evolutional changes of these nonuniversal codons in the course of animal evolution.…”

Sugar Antennae for Guidance Signals: Syndecans and Glypicans Integrate Directional Cues for Navigating Neurons by Christa Rhiner, Michael O. Hengartner

“…Intriguingly, the large number of distinct modifications that can be put onto the sugar side chains of these PGs would in principle allow for an enormous diversity of HSPGs, which could help in regulating the vast number of guidance choices taken by individual neurons. In this review, we will focus on the role of the cell surface HSPGs syndecan and glypican and specific HS modifications in promoting neuronal migration, axon guidance, and synapse formation.…”

Non-coding RNAs and exosomal ncRNAs in colorectal cancer by Yalda Zhoulideh

“…In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to the role of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) and exogenous ncRNA in the development and progression of CRC. ncRNAs play an essential role in the regulation of gene expression and cell function, and dysregulation of ncRNA expression is associated with the onset and progression of CRC. In this review, we discuss the molecular pathways involved in CRC and the emerging roles of ncRNAs and exogenous ncRNAs in the regulation of these pathways. …”
