The SARS‐CoV‐2 frameshift element pseudoknot plays a crucial role in viral replication. Using various techniques, especially NMR spectroscopy and in vitro frameshift assays, we have developed and optimized chemical probes that serve as fundamental structures for potential inhibitors targeting viral RNAs.

Lifting Prediction to Alignment of RNA Pseudoknots [PDF]
Prediction and alignment of RNA pseudoknot structures are NP-hard. Nevertheless, several efficient prediction algorithms by dynamic programming have been proposed for restricted classes of pseudoknots. We present a general scheme that yields an efficient alignment algorithm for arbitrary such classes.

A twist in the tail : SHAPE mapping of long-range interactions and structural rearrangements of RNA elements involved in HCV replication [PDF]
The RNA structure and long-range interactions of the SL9266 cis-acting replication element located within the NS5B coding region of hepatitis C virus (HCV) were determined using selective 2′-hydroxyl acylation analysed by primer extension.

Small synthetic molecule-stabilized RNA pseudoknot as an activator for –1 ribosomal frameshifting
Programmed –1 ribosomal frameshifting (−1PRF) is a recoding mechanism to make alternative proteins from a single mRNA transcript. −1PRF is stimulated by cis-acting signals in mRNA, a seven-nucleotide slippery sequence and a downstream secondary structure

An algebraic language for RNA pseudoknots comparison [PDF]
RNA secondary structure comparison is a fundamental task for several studies, among which are RNA structure prediction and evolution. The comparison can currently be done efficiently only for pseudoknot-free structures due to their inherent tree representation.In this work, we introduce an algebraic language to represent RNA secondary structures with ...

Nop9 binds the central pseudoknot region of 18S rRNA
The assembly of eukaryotic ribosomes requires numerous factors that transiently associate with evolving pre-ribosomal particles. The Pumilio repeat-containing protein Nop9 briefly associates with the 90S pre-ribosome during its co-transcriptional ...
