Performance comparison of four types of target enrichment baits for exome DNA sequencing
Background Next-generation sequencing technology is developing rapidly and target capture sequencing has become an important technique. Several different platforms for library preparation and target capture with different bait types respectively are ...

Ultrastructure of influenza virus ribonucleoprotein complexes during viral RNA synthesis
Nakano et al. use high-speed AFM and cryo-EM to study influenza virus RNA synthesis in vitro. They observe the synthesis of two types of RNA: folded single stranded RNA associated to an intact viral ribonucleoprotein (vRNP) and looped, double stranded ...

Accurate RNA 3D structure prediction using a language model-based deep learning approach [PDF]
Accurate prediction of RNA three-dimensional (3D) structure remains an unsolved challenge. Determining RNA 3D structures is crucial for understanding their functions and informing RNA-targeting drug development and synthetic biology design. The structural flexibility of RNA, which leads to scarcity of experimentally determined data, complicates ...

Contribution of Small RNA Pathway to Interactions of Rice with Pathogens and Insect Pests
Small RNAs (sRNAs) are mainly classified into microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) according to their origin. miRNAs originate from single-stranded RNA precursors, whereas siRNAs originate from double-stranded RNA precursors that are ...

UPF1 promotes the formation of R loops to stimulate DNA double-strand break repair
R loops are formed when single-stranded RNA anneals to one strand of DNA, forming three-stranded structures containing DNA-RNA hybrids and the displaced non-template single-stranded DNA. Here the authors reveal that the DNA:RNA helicase UPF1 plays a role

Human NLRP1 is a sensor for double-stranded RNA
A dsRNA detector in the immune toolkit Nod-like receptor (NLR) proteins recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns within cells, which triggers the formation of signaling complexes called inflammasomes.

Double Stranded RNA in Human Seminal Plasma
Recently, human semen was shown to contain cell-free nucleic acids, such as DNA, long single stranded RNA, and small RNAs–miRNA and piRNA. The RNAs have been suggested to have potential biological roles as communication molecules between cells and in the

RNA interference in marine and freshwater sponges [PDF]
Background: The marine sponge Tethya wilhelma and the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri are emerging model organisms to study evolution, gene regulation, development, and physiology in non-bilaterian animal systems. Thus far, functional methods (i.e.,
