Analysis of Double-Stranded RNA from Microbial Communities Identifies Double-Stranded RNA Virus-like Elements

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
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 ...

Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The connections between biotic and abiotic stress affecting mass‐reared dipteran insects and the associated stress and immunological responses. Numbers indicate the order in which the topics are discussed in this review. Abstract Stress may be viewed as the disturbance of homeostasis of an organism.

Sequence determination of a satellite RNA isolated from Aspergillus foetidus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Aspergillus foetidus virus (AfV) has at least two distinct particle types, designated as AfV-fast (F) and AfV-slow (S). AfV-S includes AfV-S1, a victorivirus; AfV-S2, an unclassified satellite RNA; and AfV-S3, a previously uncharacterized dsRNA element ...

Self-assembling HA/PEI/dsRNA-p21 ternary complexes for CD44 mediated small active RNA delivery to colorectal cancer

open access: yesDrug Delivery, 2017
Our previous work proved that sequence specific double strand RNA (dsRNA-p21) effectively activated p21 gene expression of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells and consequently suppressed CRC growth. However, efficient delivery system is a significant challenge

An Innovative Binding‐Protein‐Based dsRNA Extraction Method: Comparison of Cost‐Effectiveness of Virus Detection Methods Using High‐Throughput Sequencing

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Viral diseases represent a threat to global food production. Managing the impact of viruses on crop production requires the ability to monitor viruses, study their ecology and anticipate outbreaks. Double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) sequencing is a well‐established and reliable method of detecting viruses and studying virome‐host interactions and ...

Reduced stability and intracellular transport of dsRNA contribute to poor RNAi response in lepidopteran insects

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2016
RNA interference (RNAi) has become a widely used reverse genetic tool to study gene function in eukaryotic organisms and is being developed as a technology for insect pest management. The efficiency of RNAi varies among organisms.

Modeling recursive RNA interference. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
An important application of the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway is its use as a small RNA-based regulatory system commonly exploited to suppress expression of target genes to test their function in vivo.

Circular RNA Telomerase Reverses Endothelial Senescence in Progeria

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
TERT circRNA outperforms linear TERT mRNA in reversing the hallmarks of senescence. TERT circRNA more efficiently restores endothelial function and shows superior capability in enhancing mitochondrial function. ABSTRACT Telomeres shorten with each cell division, acting as a chronometer of cell age. The enzyme telomerase, primarily active in stem cells,

In situ structures of the segmented genome and RNA polymerase complex inside a dsRNA virus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Viruses in the Reoviridae, like the triple-shelled human rotavirus and the single-shelled insect cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus (CPV), all package a genome of segmented double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) inside the viral capsid and carry out endogenous ...

Reporters transiently transfected into mammalian cells are highly sensitive to translational repression induced by dsRNA expression.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In mammals, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can mediate sequence-specific RNA interference, activate sequence-independent interferon response, or undergo RNA editing by adenosine deaminases. We showed that long hairpin dsRNA expression had negligible effects
