Tospovirus ambisense genomic RNA segments use almost complete repertoire of stable tetraloops in the intergenic region
The intergenic regions of the ambisense RNA segments of viruses from the Tospovirus genus form large extended RNA structures that regulate virus replication. Using comparative structure analysis, we show the presence of conserved alternative conformations at the apical parts of these structures. In one conformation, a branched Y-shape, the 5'-proximal hairpin arms are mostly capped by exception...
متن کاملClassification of common conserved sequences in mammalian intergenic regions.
Comparisons between orthologous intergenic regions of related genomes reveal numerous hits, i.e. pairs of relatively short highly similar sequences that evolved slowly, perhaps due to selective constraint. We analyzed and classified 2638 hits found within 100 pairs of complete, orthologous intergenic regions of human and murine genomes. We identified all common fragments of hits that align well...
متن کاملGenome-wide analyses in bacteria show small-RNA enrichment for long and conserved intergenic regions.
Interest in finding small RNAs (sRNAs) in bacteria has significantly increased in recent years due to their regulatory functions. Development of high-throughput methods and more sophisticated computational algorithms has allowed rapid identification of sRNA candidates in different species. However, given their various sizes (50 to 500 nucleotides [nt]) and their potential genomic locations in t...
متن کاملPredicted RNA secondary structures for the conserved regions in dengue virus
Dengue fever, dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome are the prevalent mosquito borne viral infections worldwide. The dengue virus belongs to the genus flavivirus with conserved RNA domains peptidase_S7 and dexHc among its members. The secondary structures for RNA domains peptidase_S7 and DexHc are hence predicted and discussed with other known viral RNA structures to glean structur...
متن کاملConserved RNA secondary structures in Picornaviridae genomes.
The family Picornaviridae contains important pathogens including, for example, hepatitis A virus and foot-and-mouth disease virus. The genome of these viruses is a single messenger-active (+)-RNA of 7200-8500 nt. Besides coding for the viral proteins, it also contains functionally important RNA secondary structures, among them an internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) region towards the 5'-end. T...
