Persistence and clearance of viral RNA in 2019 novel coronavirus disease rehabilitation patients

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2020
Background: A patient's infectivity is determined by the presence of the virus in different body fluids, secretions, and excreta. The persistence and clearance of viral RNA from different specimens of patients with 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID ...

RNA Structural Elements of Hepatitis C Virus Controlling Viral RNA Translation and the Implications for Viral Pathogenesis

open access: yesViruses, 2012
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome multiplication requires the concerted action of the viral RNA, host factors and viral proteins. Recent studies have provided information about the requirement of specific viral RNA motifs that play an active role in the ...

Virus-derived DNA drives mosquito vector tolerance to arboviral infection

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Mosquitoes tolerate long-lasting viral infections, which makes them efficient vectors for human viral diseases. Here, the authors show that the tolerance of Aedesmosquitoes to infection with dengue or chikungunya viruses depends on the production of ...

Functional RNA Elements in the Dengue Virus Genome

open access: yesViruses, 2011
Dengue virus (DENV) genome amplification is a process that involves the viral RNA, cellular and viral proteins, and a complex architecture of cellular membranes.

Novel insights into endogenous RNA viral elements in Ixodes scapularis and other arbovirus vector genomes

open access: yesVirus Evolution, 2019
Many emerging arboviruses are not transmitted by traditional mosquito vectors, but by lesser-studied arthropods such as ticks, midges, and sand flies. Small RNA (sRNA) silencing pathways are the main antiviral defence mechanism for arthropods, which lack

The effect of RNA stiffness on the self-assembly of virus particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Under many in vitro conditions, some small viruses spontaneously encapsidate a single stranded (ss) RNA into a protein shell called the capsid. While viral RNAs are found to be compact and highly branched because of long distance base-pairing between ...

Seasonal dynamics of DNA and RNA viral bioaerosol communities in a daycare center

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2019
Viruses play an important role in ecosystems, including the built environment (BE). While numerous studies have characterized bacterial and fungal microbiomes in the BE, few have focused on the viral microbiome (virome).

Occurrence and seasonal dynamics of RNA viral genotypes in three contrasting temperate lakes

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Decades of research have demonstrated the crucial importance of viruses in freshwater ecosystems. However, few studies have focused on the seasonal dynamics and potential hosts of RNA viruses. We surveyed microbial-sized (i.e.

Completion of RNA synthesis by viral RNA replicases [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2001
How the 5'-terminus of the template affects RNA synthesis by viral RNA replicases is poorly understood. Using short DNA, RNA and RNA-DNA chimeric templates that can direct synthesis of replicase products, we found that DNA templates tend to direct the synthesis of RNA products that are shorter by 1 nt in comparison to RNA templates. Template-length RNA

Two herpesviral noncoding PAN RNAs are functionally homologous but do not associate with common chromatin loci. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
During lytic replication of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), a nuclear viral long noncoding RNA known as PAN RNA becomes the most abundant polyadenylated transcript in the cell. Knockout or knockdown of KSHV PAN RNA results in loss of late
