Investigating the interplay between Plasmodium parasites and their mammalian hosts is crucial for the development of novel vaccines. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) derived from Plasmodium parasites or host cells have emerged as potential signaling molecules involved in the trafficking of proteins, RNA (mRNAs, miRNAs, and ncRNAs), and DNA. These lncRNAs facilitate the interaction between hosts and parasites, impacting normal physiology or pathology in malaria-infected individuals. Moreover, they possess the capacity to regulate immune responses and associated signaling pathways, thus potentially influencing chromatin organization, epigenetic modifications, mRNA processing, splicing, and translation. However, the functional role of exosomal lncRNAs in malaria remains poorly understood. This review offers a comprehensive analysis of lncRNA and exosomal lncRNA profiles during malaria infection. It presents an overview of recent progress in elucidating the involvement of exosomal lncRNAs in host-parasite interactions. Additionally, potential exosomal lncRNAs linked to the domains of innate and adaptive immunity in the context of malaria are proposed. These findings may contribute to the discovery of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for malaria. Furthermore, the need for additional research was highlighted that aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying lncRNA transportation into host cells and their targeting of specific genes to regulate the host's immune response. This knowledge gap presents an opportunity for future investigations, offering innovative approaches to enhance malarial control.

Several of these pathological stimulus alter the normal function of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), leading to the accumulation of unfolded and misfolded proteins, thus triggering the unfolded protein response (UPR) to cope with the stress or trigger apoptosis of damaged cells. Downstream components of the UPR regulate transcription and translation reprogramming to ensure selective gene expression in response to pathological stimulus, including the expression of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). The ncRNAs play crucial roles in regulating transcription and translation, and their aberrant expression is associated with the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Notably, ncRNAs and ER stress can modulate each other and synergistically affect the development of CVD. Therefore, studying the interaction between ER stress and ncRNAs is necessary for effective prevention and treatment of CVD. In this review, we discuss the UPR signaling pathway and ncRNAs followed by the interplay regulation of ER stress and ncRNAs in CVD, which provides further insights into the understanding of the pathogenesis of CVD and therapeutic strategies.

Intriguingly, centrosomes are emerging as cytoplasmic sites for information storage, enriched with RNA molecules and RNA-processing proteins. Furthermore, growing evidence supports the view that nuclear spliceosome components assembled at the centrosome function as potential coordinators of splicing subprograms, pluripotency, and cell differentiation. In this article, we first discuss the current understanding of the centrosome/cilium complex, which controls both stem cell differentiation and pluripotency. We next explore the molecular mechanisms that govern splicing factor assembly and disassembly around the centrosome and examine how RNA processing pathways contribute to ciliogenesis. Finally, we discuss numerous unresolved compelling questions regarding the centrosome-associated spliceosome components and transcript variants within the cytoplasm as sources of RNA-based secondary messages in the regulation of cell identity and cell fate determination.

This inhibits canonical translation initiation, which broadly antagonizes viral protein synthesis. It also promotes the assembly of cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein complexes termed stress granules (SGs). SGs are widely thought to promote cell survival and antiviral signaling. However, co-activation of the OAS/RNase L antiviral pathway inhibits the assembly of SGs and promotes the assembly of an alternative ribonucleoprotein complex termed an RNase L-dependent body (RLB). The formation of RLBs has been observed in response to double-stranded RNA, dengue virus infection, or SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Still, many patients lose their grafted kidneys because of this infection. BKPyV microRNAs (miRNAs) have been detected in KTRs during viral infection. BKPyV produces two mature miRNAs that are named BKV-miR-B1-5p and BKV-miR-B1-3p. Additionally, BKPyV associated nephropathy (BKVAN) in kidney transplanted patients cause changes in the expression level of host genes and miRNAs such as IFN-ɣ, BCLA2A1, has-miR-10, and has-miR-30a. BKVAN can alter viral genes and miRNAs expression level, too, like viral miRNAs and T-Ag. However, their potential value as viral infection markers and the regulatory network produced by their expression during viral-host interactions needs more consideration since there are no approved medications for treating BKPyV-related diseases in KTRs. Hence, it is vital to recognize complicated facts regarding the impact of BKPyV infection on the distribution of miRNAs and mRNAs within the host cell and the virus.

Ribosomes are composed of ribosomal RNAs and proteins (rRNAs and RPs) and the rRNAs fulfill both catalytic and architectural functions. Excision of the mature eukaryotic rRNAs from their precursor transcript is achieved through a complex series of endoribonucleolytic cleavages and exoribonucleolytic processing steps that are precisely coordinated with other aspects of ribosome assembly. Many ribonucleases involved in pre-rRNA processing have been identified and pre-rRNA processing pathways are relatively well defined. However, momentous advances in cryo-electron microscopy have recently enabled structural snapshots of various pre-ribosomal particles from budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and human cells to be captured and, excitingly, these structures not only allow pre-rRNAs to be observed before and after cleavage events, but also enable ribonucleases to be visualized on their target RNAs. These structural views of pre-rRNA processing in action allow a new layer of understanding of rRNA maturation and how it is coordinated with other aspects of ribosome assembly. They illuminate mechanisms of target recognition by the diverse ribonucleases involved and reveal how the cleavage/processing activities of these enzymes are regulated.

However, a comprehensive report summarizing all information on recognition principles and newly designed ligands for TPP riboswitch is scarce in the literature. This review gives a comprehensive understanding of the TPP riboswitch's structure, mechanism, and methods applied to design ligands for the TPP riboswitch. The ligand-bound TPP riboswitch was studied with various experimental and theoretical techniques to elucidate the conformational dynamics. The mutation studies shed light on the significance of pyrimidine sensing helix for the binding of ligands. Further, the structure-activity relationship study and fragment-based approach lead to the development of ligands with K_d values at the sub-micromolar level. However, there is a need to design more potent inhibitors for TPP riboswitch for therapeutic applications.

This domain is composed of a tandemly repeating heptapeptide, Y₁ S₂ P₃ T₄ S₅ P₆ S₇ , that has multiple roles in regulating Pol II function and processing newly synthesized RNA. Transient phosphorylation of Ser2 and Ser5 of the YS₂ PTS₅ PS repeat have well-defined roles in recruiting different protein complexes and coordinating sequential steps in gene transcription. As such, these phospho-marks encipher a molecular recognition code, colloquially termed the CTD code. In contrast, the contribution of phospho-Threonine 4 (pThr4/pT4) to the CTD code remains opaque and contentious. Fuelling the debate on the relevance of this mark to gene expression are the findings that replacing Thr4 with a valine or alanine has varied impact on cellular function in different species and independent proteomic analyses disagree on the relative abundance of pThr4 marks. Yet, substitution with negatively charged residues is lethal and even benign mutations selectively disrupt synthesis and 3' processing of distinct sets of coding and non-coding transcripts. Suggestive of non-canonical roles, pThr4 marked Pol II regulates distinct gene classes in a species- and signal-responsive manner. Hinting at undiscovered roles of this elusive mark, multiple signal-responsive kinases phosphorylate Thr4 at target genes. Here, we focus on this under-explored residue and postulate that the pThr4 mark is superimposed on the canonical CTD code to selectively regulate expression of targeted genes without perturbing genome-wide transcriptional processes.
