Folding molecular origami from ribosomal RNA [PDF]

Journal of Nanobiotechnology
Approximately 80 percent of the total RNA in cells is ribosomal RNA (rRNA), making it an abundant and inexpensive natural source of long, single-stranded nucleic acid, which could be used as raw material for the fabrication of molecular origami.

Ribosomal control in RNA virus-infected cells

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Viruses are strictly intracellular parasites requiring host cellular functions to complete their reproduction cycle involving virus infection of host cell, viral genome replication, viral protein translation, and virion release.

Varying strength of selection contributes to the intragenomic diversity of rRNA genes

Nature Communications, 2022
Ribosomal RNA genes are abundant in eukaryotic genomes and code for the universal and essential RNA components of the ribosome. This study uncovers high sequence diversity of the genes within a single species and discusses the contribution of selection ...

The RNA helicase Dbp7 promotes domain V/VI compaction and stabilization of inter-domain interactions during early 60S assembly

Nature Communications, 2021
Early steps of large 60S ribosomal subunit biogenesis are not well understood. Here, the authors combine biochemical experiments with protein-RNA crosslinking and mass spectrometry to show that the RNA helicase Dbp7 is key player during early 60S ...

Toxocara canis (Ascaridida: Nematoda): Mitochondrial gene content, arrangement and composition compared with other Toxocara species

Sri Lankan Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2014
Introduction: The complete mitochondrial (mt) genomes of nematodes sequenced thus far are circular and small in length, containing 37 genes, including 12–13 protein-coding genes: namely, cytochrome oxidase subunits 1–3 (cox1–3), nicotinamide adenine ...
