RNA helicases in RNA decay [PDF]
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2018 RNA molecules have the tendency to fold into complex structures or to associate with complementary RNAs that exoribonucleases have difficulties processing or degrading. Therefore, degradosomes in bacteria and organelles as well as exosomes in eukaryotes have teamed-up with RNA helicases.

Force for ancient and recent life: viral and stem-loop RNA consortia promote life. [PDF]
, 2014 Lytic viruses were thought to kill the most numerous host (i.e., kill the winner). But persisting viruses/defectives can also protect against viruses, especially in a ubiquitous virosphere. In 1991, Yarmolinsky et al.

Transcriptionally inactive oocyte-type 5S RNA genes of Xenopus laevis are complexed with TFIIIA in vitro [PDF]
, 1987 An extract from whole oocytes of Xenopus laevis was shown to transcribe somatic-type 5S RNA genes approximately 100-fold more efficiently than oocyte-type 5S RNA genes.

Traffic into silence: endomembranes and post-transcriptional RNA silencing. [PDF]
, 2014 microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are small RNAs that repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in plants and animals. Small RNAs guide Argonaute-containing RNA-induced silencing complexes to target RNAs in a sequence-

RNA tectonics: towards RNA design
Folding and Design, 1996 Our understanding of the structural, folding and catalytic properties of RNA molecules has increased enormously in recent years. The discovery of catalytic RNA molecules by Sidney Altman and Tom Cech, the development of in vitro selection procedures, and the recent crystallizations of hammerhead ribozymes and of a large domain of an autocatalytic group

Moving RNA moves RNA forward [PDF]
Science China Life Sciences, 2013 Cell communication affects all aspects of cell structure and behavior, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, division, and coordination of various physiological functions. The moving RNA in plants and mammalian cells indicates that nucleic acid could be one of the various types of messengers for cell communication. The microvesicle is a critical

Recognition of two distinct elements in the RNA substrate by the RNA-binding domain of the T. thermophilus DEAD box helicase Hera [PDF]
, 2013 DEAD box helicases catalyze the ATP-dependent destabilization of RNA duplexes. Whereas duplex separation is mediated by the helicase core shared by all members of the family, flanking domains often contribute to binding of the RNA substrate.

CHIMIA, 2019 Advances in the chemical synthesis of RNA have opened new possibilities to address current questions in RNA biology. Access to site-specifically modified oligoribonucleotides is often a pre-requisite for RNA chemical-biology projects. Driven by the enormous research efforts for development of oligonucleotide therapeutics, a wide range of ...

Understanding RNA modifications: the promises and technological bottlenecks of the ‘epitranscriptome’ [PDF]
Open Biology, 2017 The discovery of mechanisms that alter genetic information via RNA editing or introducing covalent RNA modifications points towards a complexity in gene expression that challenges long-standing concepts.
