On an RNA-Membrane Protogenome. [PDF]
Selected ribonucleotide sequences bind well to zwitterionic phospholipid bilayer membranes, though randomized RNAs do not. There are no evident repeated sequences in selected membrane binding RNAs. This implies small and varied motifs responsible for membrane affinity. Such subsequences have been partially defined. Bound RNAs require divalents like Mg2+

Small RNA Profile in Moso Bamboo Root and Leaf Obtained by High Definition Adapters [PDF]
Moso bamboo (Phyllostachy heterocycla cv. pubescens L.) is an economically important fast-growing tree. In order to gain better understanding of gene expression regulation in this important species we used next generation sequencing to profile small RNAs

Thermodynamics of RNA–RNA binding [PDF]
Abstract Background: Reliable prediction of RNA–RNA binding energies is crucial, e.g. for the understanding on RNAi, microRNA–mRNA binding and antisense interactions. The thermodynamics of such RNA–RNA interactions can be understood as the sum of two energy contributions: (1) the energy necessary to ‘open’ the binding site and (2) the ...

METTL16 in human diseases: What should we do next?
METTL16 is a class-I methyltransferase that is responsible for depositing a vertebrate-conserved S-adenosylmethionine site. Since 2017, there has been a growing body of research focused on METTL16, particularly in the field of structural studies. However,

RNA-Catalyzed RNA Ligation on an External RNA Template [PDF]
Variants of the hc ligase ribozyme, which catalyzes ligation of the 3' end of an RNA substrate to the 5' end of the ribozyme, were utilized to evolve a ribozyme that catalyzes ligation reactions on an external RNA template. The evolved ribozyme catalyzes the joining of an oligonucleotide 3'-hydroxyl to the 5'-triphosphate of an RNA hairpin molecule ...

Nanocircular RNAs for RNA interference [PDF]
We designed and synthesized dumbbell-shaped nanocircular RNAs for RNA interference applications, which consist of a stem and two loops(1). RNA dumbbells are specifically recognized and cleaved by the human Dicer enzyme, and are thus transformed into double-stranded RNA in cells, although this RNA is resistant to degradation in serum.

Galleria mellonella as a Suitable Model of Bacterial Infection: Past, Present and Future
The increasing interest for Galleria mellonella larvae as an infection model is evidenced by the number of papers reporting its use, which increases exponentially since the early 2010s.
