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

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 ...

The functional RNA cargo of bacterial membrane vesicles.

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2018
Bacteria secrete RNAs, some of which have effects on other cells and on other species as signalling RNAs. Prokaryotic membrane vesicles (MVs) contain a range of RNA types.

The Phage-Encoded N-Acetyltransferase Rac Mediates Inactivation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Transcription by Cleavage of the RNA Polymerase Alpha Subunit

open access: yesViruses, 2020
In this study, we describe the biological function of the phage-encoded protein RNA polymerase alpha subunit cleavage protein (Rac), a predicted Gcn5-related acetyltransferase encoded by phiKMV-like viruses.

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 ...

De novo assembly of bacterial transcriptomes from RNA-seq data

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2015
Transcriptome assays are increasingly being performed by high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). For organisms whose genomes have not been sequenced and annotated, transcriptomes must be assembled de novo from the RNA-seq data.

Diagnostic Test Accuracy of a 2-Transcript Host RNA Signature for Discriminating Bacterial vs Viral Infection in Febrile Children.

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2016
IMPORTANCE Because clinical features do not reliably distinguish bacterial from viral infection, many children worldwide receive unnecessary antibiotic treatment, while bacterial infection is missed in others.

An RNA Surprise in Bacterial Effector Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2019
Bacterial pathogens secrete effector proteins to manipulate host signaling proteins and cellular structures. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Pagliuso et al. (2019) propose an effector mechanism in Listeria monocytogenes whereby an RNA-binding protein associates with bacterial RNA that stimulates RIG-I (retinoic acid inducible gene I)-based innate

Sotrovimab retains activity against SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant BQ.1.1 in a non-human primate model

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
The SARS-CoV2 Omicron variants have acquired new Spike mutations leading to escape from the most of the currently available monoclonal antibody treatments reducing the options for patients suffering from severe Covid-19.

Novel Peptide Conjugates of Modified Oligonucleotides for Inhibition of Bacterial RNase P

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Novel alternatives to traditional antibiotics are now of great demand for the successful treatment of microbial infections. Here, we present the engineering and properties of new oligonucleotide inhibitors of RNase P, an essential bacterial enzyme.
