Recombining the structures of HIV integrase, RuvC and RNase H [PDF]

open access: yesStructure, 1995
The recently reported crystal structures of two recombination enzymes, the catalytic domain of HIV integrase and Escherichia coli RuvC, an endonuclease, are surprisingly similar to that of ribonuclease H suggesting the possibility that they have a common enzymatic mechanism.

Nonradioactive Detection of Retroviral- Associated RNase H Activity in a Microplate-Based, High-Throughput Format

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2002
None of the available antiretroviral drugs that are currently used in the clinic to treat infection with HIV-1 is directed against the RNase H active site of the reverse transcriptase.

Detection of an RNase H activity associated with hepadnaviruses

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1995
Replication of the hepadnavirus DNA genome is accomplished via reverse transcription of an intermediate, pregenomic RNA molecule. This process is likely to be carried out by a virally encoded, multifunctional polymerase which possesses DNA- and RNA-dependent DNA polymerase and RNase H activities.

Mechanism of polypurine tract primer generation by HIV-1 reverse transcriptase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (HIV-1 RT) possesses both DNA polymerase activity and RNase H activity that act in concert to convert single-stranded RNA of the viral genome to double-stranded DNA that is then integrated into the DNA of the infected cell ...

The RNase J-Based RNA Degradosome Is Compartmentalized in the Gastric Pathogen Helicobacter pylori

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Posttranscriptional regulation is a major level of gene expression control in any cell. In bacteria, multiprotein machines called RNA degradosomes are central for RNA processing and degradation, and some were reported to be compartmentalized inside these

Comprehensive comparative analysis of RNA sequencing methods for degraded or low input samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
RNA-Seq is an effective method to study the transcriptome, but can be difficult to apply to scarce or degraded RNA from fixed clinical samples, rare cell populations, or cadavers.

Peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates exhibiting pyrimidine-X cleavage specificity efficiently silence miRNA target acting synergistically with RNase H

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Taking into account the important role of miRNA in carcinogenesis, oncogenic miRNAs are attractive molecules for gene-targeted therapy. Here, we developed a novel series of peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates exhibiting ribonuclease activity targeted to ...

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Insights into pegRNA design from editing of the cardiomyopathy‐associated phospholamban R14del mutation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA) secondary structure and reverse transcriptase template length affect prime editing efficiency in correcting the phospholamban R14del cardiomyopathy‐associated mutation. Insights support the design of structurally optimized enhanced pegRNAs for precise gene therapy.
