Complete probabilistic analysis of RNA shapes
, 2006 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 ...

Real-time PCR for quantitation of bovine viral diarrhea virus RNA using SYBR Green I fluorimetry
Veterinární Medicína, 2007 Quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) assay was developed for the detection and quantification of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) in clinical samples from persistently infected cattle. qRT-PCR was optimized to quantify the number of BVD virus copies

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

An RNA-dependent RNA polymerase formed by TERT and the RMRP RNA [PDF]
Nature, 2009 Constitutive expression of telomerase in human cells prevents the onset of senescence and crisis by maintaining telomere homeostasis. However, accumulating evidence suggests that the human telomerase reverse transcriptase catalytic subunit (TERT) contributes to cell physiology independently of its ability to elongate telomeres.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Roles of the HEAT repeat proteins Utp10 and Utp20 in 40S ribosome maturation [PDF]
, 2007 A family of HEAT-repeat containing ribosome synthesis factors was previously identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We report the detailed characterization of two of these factors, Utp10 and Utp20, which were initially identified as components of the ...

Nanostructured RNA for RNA Intereference
YAKUGAKU ZASSHI, 2013 RNA interference (RNAi) is a potent and highly specific gene-silencing phenomenon which is initiated or triggered by double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs). Shortly after the development of RNAi, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that are 21 nucleotides in length with a 3' nucleotide overhang were shown to be very effective in mammalian cells.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Determination of ribonuclease sequence-specificity using Pentaprobes and mass spectrometry
, 2012 The VapBC toxin-antitoxin (TA) family is the largest of nine identified TA families. The toxin, VapC, is a metal-dependent ribonuclease that is inhibited by its cognate antitoxin, VapB. Although the VapBCs are the largest TA family, little is known about
