POS-1 Promotes Endo-mesoderm Development by Inhibiting the Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation of neg-1 mRNA
Ahmed Elewa,Masaki Shirayama,Ebru Kaymak,Paul Harrison,Paul Harrison,David R. Powell,David R. Powell,Zhuo Du,Christopher D. Chute,Hannah Woolf,Dongni Yi,Takao Ishidate,Jagan Srinivasan,Zhirong Bao,Traude H. Beilharz,Sean P. Ryder,Craig C. Mello +16 more
TL;DR: These findings uncover an intricate series of post-transcriptional regulatory interactions that, together, achieve precise spatial expression of endo-mesoderm fates in C. elegans embryos.

RNA recognition by the Caenorhabditis elegans oocyte maturation determinant OMA-1.
Ebru Kaymak,Sean P. Ryder +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the RNA binding specificity of OMA-1 was defined and demonstrated that OMA1/2 are required to repress the expression of a glp-1 3′-UTR reporter in developing oocytes.
22
Structure and function of nematode RNA-binding proteins
TL;DR: This review of nematode genomes contains a significant expansion in several RNA-binding protein families, including Pumilio-FBF, TTP-like zinc finger (TZF), and Argonaute-like (AGO) proteins.

Multi-modal regulation of C. elegans hermaphrodite spermatogenesis by the GLD-1-FOG-2 complex
Shuang Hu,Lauren E. Skelly,Ebru Kaymak,Lindsay Freeberg,Te Wen Lo,Scott Kuersten,Sean P. Ryder,Eric S. Haag +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that gld-1 and fog-2 regulate germline sex via multiple interactions, and that the understanding of the control and evolution of germ cell sex determination in the C. elegans hermaphrodite is far from complete.

Deep sequencing of yeast and mouse tRNAs and tRNA fragments using OTTR
H. Tobias Gustafsson,Carolina Galan,Tianxiong Yu,Heather Upton,Lucas Ferguson,Ebru Kaymak,Zhiping Weng,Kathleen Collins,Oliver J. Rando +8 more
TL;DR: Applying this protocol to mature mouse spermatozoa, the data dramatically alter the understanding of the small RNA cargo of mature mammalian sperm, revealing a far more complex population of tRFs – including both 5’ and 3’ tRNA halves derived from the majority of tRNAs – than previously appreciated.
