Detection of genome-scale ordered RNA structure (GORS) in genomes of positive-stranded RNA viruses:Implications for virus evolution and host persistence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Discrete RNA secondary and higher-order structures, typically local in extent, play a fundamental role in RNA virus replication. Using new bioinformatics analysis methods, we have identified genome-scale ordered RNA structure (GORS) in many genera and ...

RNA World Modeling: A Comparison of Two Complementary Approaches

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
The origin of life remains one of the major scientific questions in modern biology. Among many hypotheses aiming to explain how life on Earth started, RNA world is probably the most extensively studied.

Os semimetais na origem e evolução da vida

open access: yesQuímica Nova, 2012
Metalloids have characteristics between metals and non-metals which give them, in some cases, specific properties. At least two of this chemical elements, boron and silicon, are essential to a significant number of living organisms and since some years ...

Evolution in an RNA World [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 2009
A long-standing research goal has been to develop a self-sustained chemical system that is capable of undergoing Darwinian evolution. The notion of primitive RNA-based life suggests that this goal might be achieved by constructing an RNA enzyme that catalyzes the replication of RNA molecules, including the RNA enzyme itself.

Key steps from the “RNA World” to the “DNA World”

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences, 2014
In the « RNA World » hypothesis of the origin of life, RNAs are assumed to be the central macromolecules able to self-replicate, conserve information and catalyze the reactions necessary for a primitive metabolism and many enzymatic cofactors may be ...

Dynamic RNA world [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2015
My research entered the RNA world when I joined the EMBL Heidelberg. During my doctoral and postdoctoral research I had focused on developing and applying solution NMR methods and studied protein structure and dynamics of the Bcl family proteins, which are important regulators of apoptosis.

A hepatitis C virus cis-acting replication element forms a long-range RNA-RNA interaction with upstream RNA sequences in NS5B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The genome of hepatitis C virus (HCV) contains cis-acting replication elements (CREs) comprised of RNA stem-loop structures located in both the 5' and 3' non-coding regions (NCR), and in the NS5B coding sequence.
