Double-Stranded RNA Resists Condensation
Physical Review Letters, 2011 Much attention has been focused on DNA condensation because of its fundamental biological importance. The recent discovery of new roles for RNA duplexes demands efficient packaging of double-stranded RNA for therapeutics. Here we report measurements of short DNA and RNA duplexes in the presence of trivalent ions.

Assessment of RNAi-induced silencing in banana (Musa spp.) [PDF]
, 2015 In plants, RNA- based gene silencing mediated by small RNAs functions at the transcriptional or post-transcriptional level to negatively regulate target genes, repetitive sequences, viral RNAs and/or transposon elements.

Effects of Nanoparticles on Double-Stranded RNA Stability in Corn Soil [PDF]
, 2018 Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can potentially be used as a pesticide because these molecules trigger an immune response called RNA interference (RNAi). If the expression of essential genes matching the dsRNA sequence are silenced, then the pest dies.

Identification and sequence determination of a novel double-stranded RNA mycovirus from the entopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassina [PDF]
, 2015 The final publication is available at Springer via https://doi.org/10.1007/s00705-014-2332-8.An isolate of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana was found to contain five double-stranded (ds) RNA elements ranging from 1.5 to more than 3 kbp. The

A deletion mutant of L-A double-stranded RNA replicates like M1 double-stranded RNA [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 1988 X double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is a 0.52-kilobase dsRNA molecule that arose spontaneously in a nonkiller strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae originally containing L-A and L-BC dsRNAs (L-BC is the same size as L-A but shares no homology with it). X hybridized with L-A, and direct RNA sequencing of X showed that the first 5' 25 base pairs (of the X ...

A model for the force stretching double-stranded chain molecules
, 2002 We modify and extend the recently developed statistical mechanical model for predicting the thermodynamic properties of chain molecules having noncovalent double-stranded conformations, as in RNA or ssDNA, and $\beta-$sheets in protein, by including the ...

A small RNA response at DNA ends in Drosophila [PDF]
, 2012 Small RNAs have been implicated in numerous cellular processes, including effects on chromatin structure and the repression of transposons. We describe the generation of a small RNA response at DNA ends in Drosophila that is analogous to the recently ...

A Second Double-Stranded RNA Virus from Yeast [PDF]
, 1996 Two double-stranded RNA viruses exist as permanent persistent infections of the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae:ScVL1 and ScVLa. Both belong to the Totiviridae, which include a number of fungal and protozoan double-stranded RNA viruses.

New insights into the biological role of mammalian ADARs; the RNA editing proteins [PDF]
, 2015 The ADAR proteins deaminate adenosine to inosine in double-stranded RNA which is one of the most abundant modifications present in mammalian RNA.

Virus Evolution: Fitting Lifestyles to a T [PDF]
, 2005 The structure of a double-stranded RNA virus outer shell has revealed unexpected similarities with virions of positive-strand RNA viruses. These similarities intersect with emerging parallels in RNA replication to create intriguing evolutionary ...
