Journal Club #5 Flashcards
Mitochondria are
Membrane-bound cell organelles that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell’s biochemical reactions
Mitochondria produce ATP through a process called
oxidative phosphorylation
Posttranscriptional means
The processing of RNA into its mature form after it has been transcribed, but before it is translated into protein
The purpose of this research shows that
mitochondrial RNA granules contain a collection of proteins involved in RNA metabolism
______, ______, and ______ are necessary for ribosome biogenesis
DDX28, DHX30, FASTKD2
______ is required for maturation of mRNAs that cannot be processed by the canonical pathway
FASTKD5
Mitochondrial RNA granules contain a toolbox of
proteins for RNA metabolism
Mitochondrial RNA granules are centers for
mitochondrial ribosome biogenesis
RNA granules are in
the cytoplasm
FASTKD stands for
Fas-activated serine-threonine kinase
Regulation of the translation and turnover of mRNAs is central to
the control of gene expression
GRSF1 stands for
G-rich sequence binding factor
Biogenesis is
the synthesis of substances by living organisms
Canonical
Established pathways with common or standard features
Fibroblasts
A type of cell that contributes to the formation of connective tissue
