General description

7-Methylguanosine structure is also referred to as a cap. It is located on the 5′ end of the cytoplasmic mRNA.

Application

7-Methylguanosine has been used in the removal of residual phosphates from pre rigor solution, phosphate mop system and phosphorous standard solution.

Biochem/physiol Actions

7-Methylguanosine is involved in the processing of a cap-dependent translational process of mRNA. It is also involved in protecting the mRNA from degradation due to ribonucleases and mediate nuclear export. 7-Methylguanosine also permits the recruitment of ribosome.

Deranged cap-mediated translation is implicated in the genesis, maintenance and progression of many human cancers including mesothelioma. In this study, disrupting the eIF4F complex by antagonizing the eIF4E-mRNA-cap interaction is assessed as a therapy for mesothelioma. Mesothelioma cells were treated

The nature and role of global transcriptional deregulations in cancers are not fully understood. We report that a large proportion of cancers have widespread defects in mRNA transcription elongation (TE). Cancers with TE defects (TEdeff) display spurious transcription and defective

Loss of N7-methylguanosine (m7G) modification is involved in the recently discovered rapid tRNA degradation pathway. In yeast, this modification is catalyzed by the heterodimeric complex composed of a catalytic subunit Trm8 and a noncatalytic subunit Trm82. We have solved the
