Interplay of 'induced fit' and preorganization in the ligand induced folding of the aptamer domain of the guanine binding riboswitch [PDF]
Riboswitches are highly structured elements in the 50-untranslated regions (50-UTRs) of messenger RNA that control gene expression by specifically binding to small metabolite molecules. They consist of an aptamer domain responsible for ligand binding and

It's a loop world – single strands in RNA as structural and functional elements
Unpaired regions in RNA molecules – loops – are centrally involved in defining the characteristic three-dimensional (3D) architecture of RNAs and are of high interest in RNA engineering and design.

RNA structure-wide discovery of functional interactions with multiplexed RNA motif library
Structured RNA motifs can be obtained by structure probing, duplex capture, and motif prediction. Here the authors develop a multiplexed affinity assay system to identify functional protein interactors from an RNA structure library with validated or ...

lhCLIP reveals the in vivo RNA-RNA interactions recognized by hnRNPK.
RNA-RNA interactions play a crucial role in regulating gene expression and various biological processes, but identifying these interactions on a transcriptomic scale remains a challenge.

Domain orientation in the RNA helicase YxiN and the role of conformational changes for RNA unwinding [PDF]
The RNA helicase YxiN from Bacillus subtilis is a member of the family of DEAD box proteins. YxiN is able to unwind RNA double strands in an ATP-dependent manner. The ability to catalyse RNA rearrangement is in vivo presumably necessary for the bacterial

Limited impact of the siRNA pathway on transposable element expression in Aedes aegypti
Background Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences that can change their position within a genome. In insects, small RNA pathways are central to the transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of TE expression.

Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

RNA-RNA interaction prediction using genetic algorithm [PDF]
Abstract Background RNA-RNA interaction plays an important role in the regulation of gene expression and cell development. In this process, an RNA molecule prohibits the translation of another RNA molecule by establishing stable interactions with it. In the RNA-RNA interaction prediction problem, two RNA sequences are

Complete probabilistic analysis of RNA shapes [PDF]
Voß B, Giegerich R, Rehmsmeier M. Complete probabilistic analysis of RNA shapes. BMC Biology. 2006;4(1): 5.Background: Soon after the first algorithms for RNA folding became available, it was recognised that the prediction of only one energetically ...
