Functional RNA structures in the 3'UTR of Mosquito-Borne Flaviviruses

The 3'UTR of Mosquito-Borne Flaviviruses (MBFVs) contain evolutionarily conserved functional elements, such as exoribonuclease-resistant RNAs (xrRNAs), dumbbell elements or terminal stem-loops. In this contribution we describe, annotate, and compare these elements within different serological groups of MBFVs

BVDV IRES RNA in Focus: A Game Changer for Livestock Health

Here we characterize a pseudoknot in the 5'UTR Internal Ribosome Entry Site (IRES) of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus (BVDV) using SHAPE-guided RNA structure probing and computational modelling of secondary and tertiary structures

Searching for Telomerase RNAs in Saccharomycetes is TERribly difficult

Telomerase RNAs are intrinsically difficult to find by homology search methods, even within phylogenetically related groups. This study reports our efforts in annotating telomerase RNAs in the Saccharomycetacea subgroup of yeasts, using the ViennaRNA Package and related tools
