Evaluation of rRNA depletion methods for capturing the RNA virome from environmental surfaces

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2023
Objective Metatranscriptomic analysis of RNA viromes on built-environment surfaces is hampered by low RNA yields and high abundance of rRNA. Therefore, we evaluated the quality of libraries, efficiency of rRNA depletion, and viral detection sensitivity ...

Comparison of DNA and RNA sequencing of total nucleic acids from human cervix for metagenomics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Although metagenomics and metatranscriptomics are commonly used to identify bacteria and viruses in human samples, few studies directly compare these strategies.

In planta Transcriptome Analysis of Pseudomonas syringae

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2018
Profiling bacterial transcriptome in planta is challenging due to the low abundance of bacterial RNA in infected plant tissues. Here, we describe a protocol to profile transcriptome of a foliar bacterial pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv.

Structural Biology of Bacterial RNA Polymerase

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2015
Since its discovery and characterization in the early 1960s (Hurwitz, J. The discovery of RNA polymerase. J. Biol. Chem. 2005, 280, 42477–42485), an enormous amount of biochemical, biophysical and genetic data has been collected on bacterial RNA ...

Interplay between bacterial 5′-NAD-RNA decapping hydrolase NudC and DEAD-box RNA helicase CsdA in stress responses

open access: yesmSystems, 2023
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic RNAs can be 5′-capped by the metabolite nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). Nudix hydrolases, such as bacterial NudC, specifically remove NAD-caps; however, the molecular and cellular functions of these ...

Microarray analysis of defined Mycobacterium tuberculosis populations using RNA amplification strategies

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background The amplification of bacterial RNA is required if complex host-pathogen interactions are to be studied where the recovery of bacterial RNA is limited.

Prediction of Novel Bacterial Small RNAs From RIL-Seq RNA–RNA Interaction Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The genomic revolution and subsequent advances in large-scale genomic and transcriptomic technologies highlighted hidden genomic treasures. Among them stand out non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs), shown to play important roles in post-transcriptional ...

Elimination of bacterial DNA during RNA isolation from sputum: Bashing bead vortexing is preferable over prolonged DNase treatment.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Sputum often contains large amounts of contaminating bacterial DNA that, if not eliminated during RNA isolation, may interfere with gene expression studies. During RNA isolation only repeated DNase treatment can effectively remove contaminating bacterial

Host A-to-I RNA editing signatures in intracellular bacterial and single-strand RNA viral infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundMicrobial infection is accompanied by remodeling of the host transcriptome. Involvement of A-to-I RNA editing has been reported during viral infection but remains to be elucidated during intracellular bacterial infections.ResultsHerein we ...
