Xp54, the Xenopus homologue of human RNA helicase p54, is an integral component of stored mRNP particles in oocytes (1997)
Journal Article

In investigating the composition of stored (maternal) mRNP particles in Xenopus oocytes, attention has focussed primarily on the phosphoproteins pp60/56, which are Y-box proteins involved in a general packaging of mRNA. We now identify a third, abund... Read More about Xp54, the Xenopus homologue of human RNA helicase p54, is an integral component of stored mRNP particles in oocytes.

Masking of messenger RNA by Y-box proteins (1996)
Journal Article

The Y-box proteins are defined by their ability to bind to Y-box promoter elements and to help regulate transcription of a wide variety of genes. However, Y-box proteins are also identified as abundant proteins in the cytoplasm of germ cells, where t... Read More about Masking of messenger RNA by Y-box proteins.

Transcription and masking of mRNA in germ cells: Involvement of Y-box proteins (1996)
Journal Article

Gametogenesis is directed by various specialized genetic mechanisms which, to a considerable extent, apply to the production of both eggs and sperm and have been conserved across a wide spectrum of eukaryotic organisms. Two key aspects which are disc... Read More about Transcription and masking of mRNA in germ cells: Involvement of Y-box proteins.

A role for Y‐box proteins in cell proliferation (1995)
Journal Article

Members of the Y‐box (YB) family of transcription factors are expressed in a wide range of cell types and are implicated in the regulation of a rapidly increasing number of genes. Although the biological activities of YB proteins appear to be varied,... Read More about A role for Y‐box proteins in cell proliferation.

Binding of Y-box proteins to RNA: Involvement of different protein domains (1994)
Journal Article

Eukaryotlc Y-box proteins are reported to interact with
a wide variety of nucleic acid structures to act as
transcription factors and mRNA masking proteins. The
modular structure of Y-box proteins Includes a highly
conserved N-termlnal cold-shock... Read More about Binding of Y-box proteins to RNA: Involvement of different protein domains.
