Utilization of Bacteriophage phi6 for the Production of High-Quality Double-Stranded RNA Molecules

open access: yesViruses
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecules are mediators of RNA interference (RNAi) in eukaryotic cells. RNAi is a conserved mechanism of post-transcriptional silencing of genes cognate to the sequences of the applied dsRNA.

A phagocytic route for uptake of double-stranded RNA in RNAi. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
RNA interference (RNAi) has a range of physiological functions including as a defence mechanism against viruses. To protect uninfected cells in a multicellular organism, not only a cell-autonomous RNAi response is required but also a systemic one ...

Application of Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) Produced by E. coli HT115 (DE3) and Vector L4440 in Reverse Genetics Studies in Insects [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Resources, 2023
RNA interference is a cellular process for regulating gene expression by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). In the past two decades, this cellular process has been used as a tool for the temporary knockdown of gene expression to study gene function in reverse ...

A Single RNaseIII Domain Protein from Entamoeba histolytica Has dsRNA Cleavage Activity and Can Help Mediate RNAi Gene Silencing in a Heterologous System. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Dicer enzymes process double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) into small RNAs that target gene silencing through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. Dicer enzymes are complex, multi-domain RNaseIII proteins, however structural minimalism of this protein has ...

Modelling evolution on design-by-contract predicts an origin of Life through an abiotic double-stranded RNA world

open access: yesBiology Direct, 2007
Background It is generally believed that life first evolved from single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) that both stored genetic information and catalyzed the reactions required for self-replication. Presentation of the hypothesis By modeling early genome evolution

Asymmetric reconstruction of mammalian reovirus reveals interactions among RNA, transcriptional factor µ2 and capsid proteins

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Mammalian reovirus (MRV) is a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus that affects the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts. Here, the authors present the 3.3 Å cryo-EM asymmetric reconstruction of transcribing MRV that reveals the organization of the dsRNA

Primer-dependent and primer-independent initiation of double stranded RNA synthesis by purified Arabidopsis RNA-dependent RNA polymerases RDR2 and RDR6. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Cellular RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RDRs) are fundamental components of RNA silencing in plants and many other eukaryotes. In Arabidopsis thaliana genetic studies have demonstrated that RDR2 and RDR6 are involved in the synthesis of double stranded ...

Improved dsRNA isolation and purification method validated by viral dsRNA detection using novel primers in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesMethodsX, 2023
Accurate genomic sequencing demands high-quality double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). Existing methods for dsRNA extraction from yeast, fungi, and plants primarily rely on cellulose, suitable only for small volume extractions, or the time-consuming lithium ...
