RNApolis: Computational Platform for RNA Structure Analysis

open access: yesFoundations of Computing and Decision Sciences, 2019
In the 1970s, computer scientists began to engage in research in the field of structural biology. The first structural databases, as well as models and methods supporting the analysis of biomolecule structures, started to be created.

A small RNA response at DNA ends in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Small RNAs have been implicated in numerous cellular processes, including effects on chromatin structure and the repression of transposons. We describe the generation of a small RNA response at DNA ends in Drosophila that is analogous to the recently ...

Structural analysis of mtEXO mitochondrial RNA degradosome reveals tight coupling of nuclease and helicase components

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The mitochondrial RNA degradosome (mtEXO) plays an essential role in the regulation of mitochondrial gene expression and is composed of the 3′-to-5′ exoribonuclease Dss1 and the helicase Suv3.

A novel SHAPE reagent enables the analysis of RNA structure in living cells with unprecedented accuracy

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Due to the mounting evidence that RNA structure plays a critical role in regulating almost any physiological as well as pathological process, being able to accurately define the folding of RNA molecules within living cells has become a crucial need.

Helix capping in RNA structure. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Helices are an essential element in defining the three-dimensional architecture of structured RNAs. While internal basepairs in a canonical helix stack on both sides, the ends of the helix stack on only one side and are exposed to the loop side, thus ...

VfoldCPX Server: Predicting RNA-RNA Complex Structure and Stability. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
RNA-RNA interactions are essential for genomic RNA dimerization, mRNA splicing, and many RNA-related gene expression and regulation processes. The prediction of the structure and folding stability of RNA-RNA complexes is a problem of significant ...

Statistical Physics of RNA-folding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We discuss the physics of RNA as described by its secondary structure. We examine the static properties of a homogeneous RNA-model that includes pairing and base stacking energies as well as entropic costs for internal loops.

RNA Thermodynamic Structural Entropy

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2015
Conformational entropy for atomic-level, three dimensional biomolecules is known experimentally to play an important role in protein-ligand discrimination, yet reliable computation of entropy remains a difficult problem. Here we describe the first two accurate and efficient algorithms to compute the conformational entropy for RNA secondary structures ...

Structural Differences between Pri-miRNA Paralogs Promote Alternative Drosha Cleavage and Expand Target Repertoires

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: MicroRNA (miRNA) processing begins with Drosha cleavage, the fidelity of which is critical for downstream processing and mature miRNA target specificity.

RNA structure determination: From 2D to 3D

open access: yesFundamental Research, 2023
RNA molecules serve a wide range of functions that are closely linked to their structures. The basic structural units of RNA consist of single- and double-stranded regions.
