Analysis of interactions between the germline RNA helicases (GLHs) and their regulators KGB-1 and CSN-5 in Caenorhabditis elegans
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)The Caenorhabditis elegans germline RNA helicases (GLHs) are constitutive components of P granules, non-membranous aggregates of protein and RNA that segregate with the nematode germline. The GLHs are critical for fertility. ... -
Dicer interacts with the P-granule component GLH-1 : both localize to C. elegans nuclear pores and to stress-induced oocyte RNP granules
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)P granules are ribonucleoprotein complexes specific to the cytoplasmic side of the nuclear pores of C. elegans germ cells. While P granules are implicated in post-transcriptional control of maternally-transcribed mRNAs, ... -
An essential role in germline development for a P-granule associated novel protein in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans and RNAi in the ubiquitous parasitic nematode Ascaris suum
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)The germline RNA helicases (GLHs) are constitutive components of P granules and important for fertility in C. elegans. Discovered as a GLH-1 partner, the P-granule associated novel protein (PAN-1) is important both in ... -
Investigating the role of germline RNA helicase-1 in Caenorhabditis elegans
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The germline specific RNA helicase GLH-1, a constitutive P-granule component, and DCR-1, the riboendonuclease responsible for processing small RNAs ...
