  2. Post-transcriptional modification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-transcriptional...

    This type of cap, with just the (m 7 G) in position is called a cap 0 structure. The ribose of the adjacent nucleotide may also be methylated to give a cap 1. Methylation of nucleotides downstream of the RNA molecule produce cap 2, cap 3 structures and so on. In these cases the methyl groups are added to the 2' OH groups of the ribose sugar.

  3. Capping enzyme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capping_enzyme

    [4] [13] [14] The human capping enzyme is an example of a bifunctional polypeptide, which has both triphosphatase (N-terminal) and guanylyltransferase (C-terminal) domains. [ 15 ] [ 16 ] The human mRNA guanylyltransferase domain of the capping enzyme is composed of seven helices and fifteen β strands that are grouped into three, five and seven ...

  4. Messenger RNA decapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messenger_RNA_decapping

    The process of messenger RNA decapping consists of hydrolysis of the 5' cap structure on the RNA exposing a 5' monophosphate. In eukaryotes, this 5' monophosphate is a substrate for the 5' exonuclease Xrn1 [1] and the mRNA is quickly destroyed. There are many situations which may lead to the removal of the cap, some of which are discussed below ...

  5. Silver nanoparticle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_nanoparticle

    An Ag + species and a capping agent are added (although the polyol itself is also often the capping agent). The Ag + species is then reduced by the polyol to colloidal nanoparticles. [ 25 ] The polyol process is highly sensitive to reaction conditions such as temperature, chemical environment, and concentration of substrates.

  6. Calcium dobesilate - Wikipedia

    Calcium dobesilate is a vasoprotective.It is the calcium salt of dobesilic acid.It is a synthetic molecule with the ability to reduce capillary permeability in the body. In Switzerland the drug is sold by the pharmaceutical company OM Pharma under the trade name of Doxium in capsules containing 500 mg of active ingredient.

  8. Macrophage-capping protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrophage-capping_protein

    By capping the barbed ends of actin filaments, the encoded protein contributes to the control of actin-based motility in non-muscle cells. Alternatively, spliced transcript variants have been observed, but have not been fully described.

  9. Eukaryotic translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eukaryotic_translation

    Unlike cap-dependent translation, cap-independent translation does not require a 5' cap to initiate scanning from the 5' end of the mRNA until the start codon. The ribosome can localize to the start site by direct binding, initiation factors, and/or ITAFs (IRES trans-acting factors) bypassing the need to scan the entire 5' UTR .
