RNA interference, growth and differentiation appear normal in African trypanosomes lacking Tudor staphylococcal nuclease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Ribonucleases play important roles in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. The Dicer endonuclease converts double-stranded (ds)RNA into small interfering (si)RNA and the Slicer endonuclease, as a component of the RNA induced silencing complex (RISC ...

hSSB1 interacts directly with the MRN complex stimulating its recruitment to DNA double-strand breaks and its endo-nuclease activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
hSSB1 is a recently discovered single-stranded DNA binding protein that is essential for efficient repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by the homologous recombination pathway.

LAST-seq: single-cell RNA sequencing by direct amplification of single-stranded RNA without prior reverse transcription and second-strand synthesis

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2023
Existing single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) methods rely on reverse transcription (RT) and second-strand synthesis (SSS) to convert single-stranded RNA into double-stranded DNA prior to amplification, with the limited RT/SSS efficiency compromising ...

Novel endoribonucleases as central players in various pathways of eukaryotic RNA metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
For a long time it has been assumed that the decay of RNA in eukaryotes is mainly carried out by exoribonucleases, which is in contrast to bacteria, where endoribonucleases are well documented to initiate RNA degradation.

Interaction of PKR with single-stranded RNA

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Although the antiviral kinase PKR was originally characterized as a double-stranded RNA activated enzyme it can be stimulated by RNAs containing limited secondary structure.

siRNA-like double-stranded RNAs are specifically protected against degradation in human cell extract. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
RNA interference (RNAi) is a set of intracellular pathways in eukaryotes that controls both exogenous and endogenous gene expression. The power of RNAi to knock down (silence) any gene of interest by the introduction of synthetic small-interfering (si ...

A Rapid Method for Sequencing Double-Stranded RNAs Purified from Yeasts and the Identification of a Potent K1 Killer Toxin Isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Mycoviruses infect a large number of diverse fungal species, but considering their prevalence, relatively few high-quality genome sequences have been determined.

Arabidopsis thaliana endonuclease V is a ribonuclease specific for inosine-containing single-stranded RNA

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2021
Endonuclease V is highly conserved, both structurally and functionally, from bacteria to humans, and it cleaves the deoxyinosine-containing double-stranded DNA in Escherichia coli, whereas in Homo sapiens it catalyses the inosine-containing single ...

Rotavirus infection induces transient pancreatic involution and hyperglycemia in weanling mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Rotavirus is a ubiquitous double-stranded RNA virus responsible for most cases of infantile gastroenteritis. It infects pancreatic islets in vitro and is implicated as a trigger of autoimmune destruction of islet beta cells leading to type 1 diabetes ...

Sensitivity and specificity of anti-double-stranded RNA immunofluorescence for universal detection of viral infection in respiratory specimens

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Background: Emerging viruses could be detected before reaching pandemic level if universal viral detection screening was routinely used. Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is the only common antigen across most viral families.
