Genetic compensation triggered by mutant mRNA degradation
…, N Fukuda, K Kikhi, GLM Boezio, CM Takacs… - Nature, 2019 - nature.com
Genetic robustness, or the ability of an organism to maintain fitness in the presence of harmful
mutations, can be achieved via protein feedback loops. Previous work has suggested that …

Nanog, Pou5f1 and SoxB1 activate zygotic gene expression during the maternal-to-zygotic transition
After fertilization, maternal factors direct development and trigger zygotic genome activation (ZGA)
at the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT). In zebrafish, ZGA is required for …

Genome wide analysis of 3′ UTR sequence elements and proteins regulating mRNA stability during maternal-to-zygotic transition in zebrafish
Posttranscriptional regulation plays a crucial role in shaping gene expression. During the
maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), thousands of maternal transcripts are regulated. However, …

MicroRNAs as genetic sculptors: fishing for clues
CM Takacs, AJ Giraldez - Seminars in cell & developmental biology, 2010 - Elsevier
microRNAs (miRNAs) encode small RNA molecules of ∼22nts in length that regulate the
deadenylation, translation, and decay of their target mRNAs. The identification of miRNAs in …
