Prevalence of Dengue, Chikungunya and Zika Viruses in Blood Donors in the State of Pará, Northern Brazil: 2018–2020

open access: yesMedicina, 2022
Arboviruses have been reported over the years as constant threats to blood transfusion recipients, given the high occurrence of asymptomatic cases and the fact that the presence of viremia precedes the onset of symptoms, making it possible that infected ...

Serpentine and Vermiform Are Produced Autonomously to Fulfill Their Function in Drosophila Wings

open access: yesInsects, 2023
Group I chitin deacetylases (CDAs), CDA1 and CDA2, play an essential role in cuticle formation and molting in the process of insect wing development. A recent report showed that trachea are able to take up a secreted CDA1 (serpentine, serp) produced in ...

Specificity Determination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Killer Virus Systems

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Saccharomyces yeasts are widely distributed in the environment and microbiota of higher organisms. The killer phenotype of yeast, encoded by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus systems, is a valuable trait for host survival. The mutual relationship between

Nucleic acid vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 1995
The use of nucleic acid-based vaccines is a novel approach to immunization that elicits immune responses similar to those induced by live, attenuated vaccines. Administration of nucleic acid vaccines results in the endogenous generation of viral proteins with native conformation, glycosylation profiles, and other posttranslational modifications that ...

Branching Ionizable Lipids Can Enhance the Stability, Fusogenicity, and Functional Delivery of mRNA

open access: yesSmall Science, 2023
Ionizable lipids with branched tails have been used in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs)‐based messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics like COVID‐19 vaccines. However, due to the limited commercial availability of branched ingredients, a systematic analysis of how ...

Modeling nucleic acids [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2012
Nucleic acids are an important class of biological macromolecules that carry out a variety of cellular roles. For many functions, naturally occurring DNA and RNA molecules need to fold into precise three-dimensional structures. Due to their self-assembling characteristics, nucleic acids have also been widely studied in the field of nanotechnology, and ...

RNA ligase ribozymes with a small catalytic core

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Catalytic RNAs, or ribozymes, catalyze diverse chemical reactions that could have sustained primordial life in the hypothetical RNA world. Many natural ribozymes and laboratory evolved ribozymes exhibit efficient catalysis mediated by elaborate catalytic

Experimental exploration of a ribozyme neutral network using evolutionary algorithm and deep learning

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Neutral networks, which are sets of genotypes connected via single mutations that share the same phenotype, are important for evolvability. Here, the authors provide experimental evidence of a neutral network in an RNA enzyme using a high-throughput ...
