Authors Sala FA, Hillen HS Journal Trends in Biochemical Sciences Citation Trends Biochem Sci. 2026 Jul 17:S0968-0004(26)00203-3. Abstract Nipah virus (NiV) is a highly pathogenic, nonsegmented, negative-sense RNA virus (nsNSV) from the Mononegavirales order that causes frequent outbreaks, with no approved treatment available. Replication and transcription of its genome are

Authors Jain N, Chacinska A, Rehling P Journal Trends in Biochemical Sciences Citation Trends Biochem Sci. 2025 Mar 27:S0968-0004(25)00050-7. Abstract Mitochondrial function relies on the precise targeting and import of cytosolic proteins into mitochondrial subcompartments. Most matrix-targeted proteins follow the presequence pathway, which directs precursor proteins across the outer mitochondrial

Authors Bhatta A, Hillen HS Journal Trends in Biochemical Sciences Citation Trends Biochem Sci. 2022 Jun 18:S0968-0004(22)00139-6. Abstract Ribonuclease P (RNase P) enzymes are responsible for the 5′ processing of tRNA precursors. In addition to the well-characterised ribozyme-based RNase P enzymes, an evolutionarily distinct group of protein-only RNase Ps exists.

Authors Bohnsack KE, Kleiber N, Lemus-Diaz N, Bohnsack MT Journal Trends in Biochemical Sciences Citation Trends Biochem Sci. 2022 Mar 29:S0968-0004(22)00063-9. Abstract Modified nucleotides within cellular RNAs significantly influence their biogenesis, stability, and function. As reviewed here, 3-methylcytidine (m3C) has recently come to the fore through the identification of the
