Heterozygous mutation SLFN14 K208N in mice mediates species-specific differences in platelet and erythroid lineage commitment.

Schlafen 14 (SLFN14) has recently been identified as an endoribonuclease responsible for cleaving RNA to regulate and inhibit protein synthesis. Early studies revealed that members of the SLFN family are capable of altering lineage commitment during T-cell differentiation by using cell-cycle arrest as a means of translational control by RNase activity. SLFN14 has been reported as a novel gene causing an inherited macrothrombocytopenia and bleeding in human patients; however, the role of this endoribonuclease in megakaryopoiesis and thrombopoiesis remains unknown.

Dual tRNA mimicry in the Cricket Paralysis Virus IRES uncovers an unexpected similarity with the Hepatitis C Virus IRES.

Co-opting the cellular machinery for protein production is a compulsory requirement for viruses. The Cricket Paralysis Virus employs an Internal Ribosomal Entry Site (CrPV-IRES) to express its structural genes in the late stage of infection. Ribosome hijacking is achieved by a sophisticated use of molecular mimicry to tRNA and mRNA, employed to manipulate intrinsically dynamic components of the ribosome.
