Journal Article
Zhang, Q., Pavanello, L., Potapov, A., Bartlam, M., & Winkler, G. S. (2022). Structure of the human Ccr4-Not nuclease module using X-ray crystallography and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy distance measurements. Protein Science, 31(3), 758-764. https://doi.org/10.1002/pro.4262

Regulated degradation of mature, cytoplasmic mRNA is a key step in eukaryotic gene regulation. This process is typically initiated by the recruitment of deadenylase enzymes by cis-acting elements in the 3' untranslated region resulting in the shorten...
