Optimizing PCR primers targeting the bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA gene [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2018 Background Targeted amplicon sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene is one of the key tools for studying microbial diversity. The accuracy of this approach strongly depends on the choice of primer pairs and, in particular, on the balance between ...

A functional pseudoknot in 16S ribosomal RNA. [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 1991 Several lines of evidence indicate that the universally conserved 530 loop of 16S ribosomal RNA plays a crucial role in translation, related to the binding of tRNA to the ribosomal A site. Based upon limited phylogenetic sequence variation, Woese and Gutell (1989) have proposed that residues 524-526 in the 530 hairpin loop are base paired with residues

The 16S ribosomal RNA mutation database (16SMDB) [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1996 The 16S ribosomal RNA mutation database (16SMDB) provides a list of mutated positions in 16S ribosomal RNA from Escherichia coli and the identity of each alteration. Information provided for each mutation includes: (i) a brief description of the phenotype(s) associated with each mutation; (ii) whether a mutant phenotype has been detected by in vivo or ...

Collection of small subunit (16S- and 16S-like) ribosomal RNA structures: 1994 [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1994 A collection of diverse 16S and 16S-like rRNA secondary structure diagrams are available. This set of rRNAs contains representative structures from all of the major phylogenetic groupings--Archaea, (eu)Bacteria, and the nucleus, mitochondrion, and chloroplast of Eucarya.

Computer modeling 16 S ribosomal RNA [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Biology, 1991 A three-dimensional structure for 16 S RNA has been produced with a computer protocol that is not dependent on human intervention. This protocol improves upon traditional modeling techniques by using distance geometry to fold the molecule in an objective and reproducible fashion.
