Yamashita S, Tomita K
Nucleic Acids Res . 2025 Jan; 53(2). PMID: 39831302
U6 snRNA (small nuclear ribonucleic acid) is a ribozyme that catalyzes pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) splicing and undergoes epitranscriptomic modifications. After transcription, the 3'-end of U6 snRNA is oligo-uridylylated by the...

Yamashita S, Tomita K
Nat Commun . 2023 Aug; 14(1):4686. PMID: 37563152
U6 snRNA is a catalytic RNA responsible for pre-mRNA splicing reactions and undergoes various post-transcriptional modifications during its maturation process. The 3'-oligouridylation of U6 snRNA by the terminal uridylyltransferase, TUT1,...

Nagato Y, Yamashita S, Ohashi A, Furukawa H, Takai K, Tomita K, et al.
J Biochem . 2023 Jun; 174(3):291-303. PMID: 37261968
Glycyl-tRNA synthetases (GlyRSs) have different oligomeric structures depending on the organisms. While a dimeric α2 GlyRS species is present in archaea, eukaryotes and some eubacteria, a heterotetrameric α2β2 GlyRS species...

Ju J, Aoyama T, Yashiro Y, Yamashita S, Kuroyanagi H, Tomita K
Nucleic Acids Res . 2023 Feb; 51(5):2434-2446. PMID: 36794723
In Caenorhabditis elegans, the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification by METT10, at the 3'-splice sites in S-adenosyl-l-methionine (SAM) synthetase (sams) precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA), inhibits sams pre-mRNA splicing, promotes alternative splicing coupled with...

Ohira T, Minowa K, Sugiyama K, Yamashita S, Sakaguchi Y, Miyauchi K, et al.
Nature . 2022 Apr; 605(7909):372-379. PMID: 35477761
Post-transcriptional modifications have critical roles in tRNA stability and function. In thermophiles, tRNAs are heavily modified to maintain their thermal stability under extreme growth temperatures. Here we identified 2'-phosphouridine (U)...

Aoyama T, Yamashita S, Tomita K
Nucleic Acids Res . 2020 Apr; 48(9):5157-5168. PMID: 32266935
The N6-methyladenosine modification at position 43 (m6A43) of U6 snRNA is catalyzed by METTL16, and is important for the 5'-splice site recognition by U6 snRNA during pre-mRNA splicing. Human METTL16...

Liu Y, Martinez A, Yamashita S, Tomita K
Nucleic Acids Res . 2020 Jan; 48(3):1572-1582. PMID: 31919512
BCDIN3 domain containing RNA methyltransferase, BCDIN3D, monomethylates the 5'-monophosphate of cytoplasmic tRNAHis with a G-1:A73 mispair at the top of an eight-nucleotide-long acceptor helix, using S-adenosyl-l-methionine (SAM) as a methyl...

Yamashita S, Nagaike T, Tomita K
Nat Commun . 2019 May; 10(1):1960. PMID: 31036859
Lin28-dependent oligo-uridylylation of precursor let-7 (pre-let-7) by terminal uridylyltransferase 4/7 (TUT4/7) represses let-7 expression by blocking Dicer processing, and regulates cell differentiation and proliferation. The interaction between the Lin28:pre-let-7 complex...

Yashiro Y, Yamashita S, Tomita K
Structure . 2019 Jan; 27(3):476-484.e3. PMID: 30612860
AtaT-AtaR is an enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli toxin-antitoxin system that modulates cellular growth under stress conditions. AtaT and AtaR act as a toxin and its repressor, respectively. AtaT is a member...

Taniguchi T, Miyauchi K, Sakaguchi Y, Yamashita S, Soma A, Tomita K, et al.
Nat Chem Biol . 2018 Aug; 14(11):1010-1020. PMID: 30150682
Modification of tRNA anticodons plays a critical role in ensuring accurate translation. N-acetylcytidine (acC) is present at the anticodon first position (position 34) of bacterial elongator tRNA. Herein, we identified...
