Alternative polyadenylation and regulated mRNA stability control the amount and duration of protein expression, while alternative splicing also controls protein identity and function. Much work in innate immunity has focused on the activation of transcription factors and the downstream consequences in gene expression. However, there is increasing evidence indicating that regulation of RNA processing by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) contributes significantly to tuning the innate immune response. Herein we review work highlighting the impact of RNA processing in innate immunity and describe the RBPs and mechanisms driving this regulation.

Unfortunately, many RiPPs have suboptimal bioavailability and proteolytic stability, significantly limiting their clinical potential. Moreover, the complexity of RiPP structures makes total synthesis extremely difficult.

We propose a Sequential Activation Hypothesis where initial abnormal sncRNAs – triggered by infections or stresses – activate TLR7/8, leading to autoantibody production against autoantigens like RNA-binding proteins La and Ro. These autoantibody–antigen complexes further promote secondary immunogenic sncRNA production and repetitive TLR7/8 activation, perpetuating a vicious cycle sustaining autoimmunity.

Furthermore, I argue that the concentration of TFs within phase-separated nuclear condensates and their covalent modifications play an underappreciated but crucial role in sharpening transcriptional responses through complementary mechanisms.
