The unknotted strands of life: knots are very rare in RNA structures [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
The ongoing effort to detect and characterize physical entanglement in biopolymers has so far established that knots are present in many globular proteins and also abound in viral DNA packaged inside bacteriophages. RNA molecules, on the other hand, have not yet been systematically screened for the occurrence of physical knots.

Three stages of nascent protein translocation through the ribosome exit tunnel [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
All proteins in living organisms are produced in ribosomes that facilitate the translation of genetic information into a sequence of amino acid residues. During translation, the ribosome undergoes initiation, elongation, termination, and recycling. In fact, peptide bonds are formed only during the elongation phase, which comprises periodic association ...

Six Species of Phyllachora with Three New Taxa on Grass from Sichuan Province, China

open access: yesJournal of Fungi
Phyllachora (Phyllachoraceae, Phyllachorales) species are parasitic fungi with a wide global distribution, causing tar spots on plants. In this study, we describe three newly discovered species: Phyllachora chongzhouensis, Phyllachora neidongensis, and ...
