Hepatitis Delta Virus RNA Replication
Viruses, 2009 Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a distant relative of plant viroids in the animal world. Similar to plant viroids, HDV replicates its circular RNA genome using a double rolling-circle mechanism.

Acta Horticulturae, 2011 With a genome composed of a small (246-401 nt), single-stranded, circular RNA, viroids are a special class of replicons infecting plants, including some ornamentals, in which they may induce specific diseases. In striking contrast to plant viruses, which encode proteins mediating their own replication and movement, viroids depend on host factors for ...

Detektion des Kartoffelspindelknollen Viroids mit Hilfe der Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification [PDF]
, 2011 PSTV ist ein hoch infektiöses Viroid, das in Kartoffeln verkleinerte und spindelähnliche Knollen verursacht. Um Ernteverlusten vorzubeugen, ist eine Detektion in frühen Infektionsstadien von großer Bedeutung.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1982 Viroids are small "naked" infectious RNA molecules that are pathogens of higher plants. The potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) is composed of a covalently closed circular RNA molecule containing 359 ribonucleotides. The properties of PSTV were compared with those of the scrapie agent, which causes a degenerative neurological disease in animals.

Pathogenic microbes, the microbiome, and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) [PDF]
, 2013 The Si(111)-(3 ? 1)Li and Ag surface structures consist of Si honeycomb chains separated by channels occupied by Li or Ag atoms. The dimerization of neighboring Ag atoms results in a larger c (12 ? 2)Ag superstructure.

Conserved Motifs and Domains in Members of Pospiviroidae
Cells, 2022 In 1985, Keese and Symons proposed a hypothesis on the sequence and secondary structure of viroids from the family Pospiviroidae: their secondary structure can be subdivided into five structural and functional domains and “viroids have evolved by ...

, 2020 In searching for life in extraterrestrial space, it is essential to act based on an unequivocal definition of life. In the twentieth century, life was defined as cells that self-replicate, metabolize, and are open for mutations, without which genetic ...

A 212-nt long RNA structure in the Tobacco necrosis virus-D RNA genome is resistant to Xrn degradation [PDF]
, 2019 Plus-strand RNA viruses can accumulate viral RNA degradation products during infections. Some of these decay intermediates are generated by the cytosolic 5′-to-3′ exoribonuclease Xrn1 (mammals and yeast) or Xrn4 (plants) and are formed when the enzyme ...
