DEAD-Box Helicase 3 Modulates the Non-Coding RNA Pool in Ribonucleoprotein Condensates During Stress Granule FormationNon-coding RNA · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Stress granule formation is a type of liquid–liquid phase separation in the cytoplasm, leading to RNA–protein condensates that are associated with various cellular stress responses and implicated in numerous pathologies, including cancer, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and cellular senescence. One of the key components of mammalian stress granules is the DEAD-box RNA helicase DDX3, which unwinds RNA in an ATP-dependent manner.

DDX3 is involved in multiple steps of RNA metabolism, facilitating gene transcription, splicing, and nuclear export and regulating cytoplasmic translation. In this study, we investigate the role of the RNA helicase DDX3’s enzymatic activity in shaping the RNA content of ribonucleoprotein (RNP) condensates formed during arsenite-induced stress by inhibiting DDX3 activity with RK-33, a small molecule previously shown to be effective in cancer clinical studies. Using the human osteosarcoma U2OS cell line, we purified the RNP granule fraction and performed RNA sequencing to assess changes in the RNA pool. Our results reveal that RK-33 treatment alters the composition of non-coding RNAs within the RNP granule fraction. We observed a DDX3-dependent increase in circular RNA (circRNA) content and alterations in the granule-associated intronic RNAs, suggesting a novel role for DDX3 in regulating the cytoplasmic redistribution of non-coding RNAs.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE303136_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1294212 and SRA study SRP602493. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
