Using RNA Sequence and Structure for the Prediction of Riboswitch Aptamer: A Comprehensive Review of Available Software and Tools

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
RNA molecules are essential players in many fundamental biological processes. Prokaryotes and eukaryotes have distinct RNA classes with specific structural features and functional roles.

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.

L11 domain rearrangement upon binding to RNA and thiostrepton studied by NMR spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2006
Ribosomal proteins are assumed to stabilize specific RNA structures and promote compact folding of the large rRNA. The conformational dynamics of the protein between the bound and unbound state play an important role in the binding process.

Nucleocapsid protein structures from orthobunyaviruses reveal insight into ribonucleoprotein architecture and RNA polymerization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
All orthobunyaviruses possess three genome segments of single-stranded negative sense RNA that are encapsidated with the virus-encoded nucleocapsid (N) protein to form a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex, which is uncharacterized at high resolution.

Comparison of Three Computational Tools for the Prediction of RNA Tertiary Structures

open access: yesNon-Coding RNA
Understanding the structures of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) is important for the development of RNA-based therapeutics. There are inherent challenges in employing current experimental techniques to determine the tertiary (3D) structures of RNAs with high ...

Structural Changes of RNA in Complex with Proteins in the SRP

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2018
The structural flexibility of RNA allows it to exist in several shapes and sizes. Thus, RNA is functionally diverse and is known to be involved in processes such as catalysis, ligand binding, and most importantly, protein recognition.

Heterozygous loss‐of‐function alleles associate the conserved 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease EXOSC10 with hypersensitivity to the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
EXOSC10, an essential nuclear RNA exosome‐associated 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease, is inhibited by the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU), and EXOSC10 depletion increases 5‐FU sensitivity. The colon‐cancer variant EXOSC10S402T, located in a proteolysis motif, is stable and nuclear but nonfunctional in vivo.

Covariance models for RNA structure prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Many non-coding RNAs are known to play a role in the cell directly linked to their structure. Structure prediction based on the sole sequence is however a challenging task.

Shape based indexing for faster search of RNA family databases

open access: yes, 2008
Janssen S, Reeder J, Giegerich R. Shape based indexing for faster search of RNA family databases. BMC Bioinformatics. 2008;9(1):131.Background: Most non-coding RNA families exert their function by means of a conserved, common secondary structure.

Crystal structure of Zika virus NS5 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The Zika virus outbreak is a global health threat and there is an urgent need for drugs against the virus. Here the authors present the structure of the RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase domain from Zika non-structural protein 5, which is a template for the ...
