Emerging Role of l-Dopa Decarboxylase in Flaviviridae Virus Infections
Cells, 2019 l-dopa decarboxylase (DDC) that catalyzes the biosynthesis of bioactive amines, such as dopamine and serotonin, is expressed in the nervous system and peripheral tissues, including the liver, where its physiological role remains unknown.

Statistical properties of thermodynamically predicted RNA secondary structures in viral genomes
, 2008 By performing a comprehensive study on 1832 segments of 1212 complete genomes of viruses, we show that in viral genomes the hairpin structures of thermodynamically predicted RNA secondary structures are more abundant than expected under a simple random ...
