Cellular context restricts a promiscuous m6A reader IDR to a single functional effector interface for mRNA decay

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a conserved mRNA modification that regulates transcript stability, yet how m6A readers engage effectors remains unknown. We show that during yeast meiosis, the YTH-domain protein Pho92 promotes the decay of m6A-modified transcripts through an uncharacterised, promiscuous intrinsically disord...

Structural and functional basis of the non-canonical human Dicer-tRNA complex

Human Dicer (hDicer) is a key enzyme in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway that generates ∼21-22 nt micro-RNA (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs). We have previously shown that hDicer also generates tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), which mediate nuclear gene silencing and regulate hundreds of disease-associa...
