Reovirus Low-Density Particles Package Cellular RNA
Packaging of segmented, double-stranded RNA viral genomes requires coordination of viral proteins and RNA segments. For mammalian orthoreovirus (reovirus), evidence suggests either all ten or zero viral RNA segments are simultaneously packaged in a ...

Performance comparison of four types of target enrichment baits for exome DNA sequencing
Background Next-generation sequencing technology is developing rapidly and target capture sequencing has become an important technique. Several different platforms for library preparation and target capture with different bait types respectively are ...

Ultrastructure of influenza virus ribonucleoprotein complexes during viral RNA synthesis
Nakano et al. use high-speed AFM and cryo-EM to study influenza virus RNA synthesis in vitro. They observe the synthesis of two types of RNA: folded single stranded RNA associated to an intact viral ribonucleoprotein (vRNP) and looped, double stranded ...

Contribution of Small RNA Pathway to Interactions of Rice with Pathogens and Insect Pests
Small RNAs (sRNAs) are mainly classified into microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) according to their origin. miRNAs originate from single-stranded RNA precursors, whereas siRNAs originate from double-stranded RNA precursors that are ...

Double Stranded RNA in Human Seminal Plasma
Recently, human semen was shown to contain cell-free nucleic acids, such as DNA, long single stranded RNA, and small RNAs–miRNA and piRNA. The RNAs have been suggested to have potential biological roles as communication molecules between cells and in the

Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can function as genetic information and may have served as genomic material before the existence of DNA-based life. By developing a method to purify dsRNA, we have investigated the diversity of dsRNA in microbial populations ...

UPF1 promotes the formation of R loops to stimulate DNA double-strand break repair
R loops are formed when single-stranded RNA anneals to one strand of DNA, forming three-stranded structures containing DNA-RNA hybrids and the displaced non-template single-stranded DNA. Here the authors reveal that the DNA:RNA helicase UPF1 plays a role

Efficiency of RNA interference is improved by knockdown of dsRNA nucleases in tephritid fruit flies [PDF]
RNA interference (RNAi) in insects is routinely used to ascertain gene function, but also has potential as a technology to control pest species. For some insects, such as beetles, ingestion of small quantities of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is able to ...

TRBP and eIF6 homologue in Marsupenaeus japonicus play crucial roles in antiviral response. [PDF]
Plants and invertebrates can suppress viral infection through RNA silencing, mediated by RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). Trans-activation response RNA-binding protein (TRBP), consisting of three double-stranded RNA-binding domains, is a component ...
