Functional RNA structures in the 3'UTR of Mosquito-Borne Flaviviruses
This chapter compares conserved functional RNA elements in the 3' UTRs of mosquito-borne flaviviruses, including xrRNAs, dumbbells, and terminal stem-loops.

Secondary and tertiary structure of the BVDV IRES
This post summarizes what SHAPE-guided modeling and 3D analysis reveal about a pseudoknot in the BVDV internal ribosome entry site and why that matters for IRES function.
Molecular epidemiology and RNA structure in Chikungunya virus
Comparative and phylogenetic analysis of CHIKV genomes links lineage-associated single-nucleotide variants to changes in conserved RNA structures.
Insect-specific flaviviruses from Zambia and their exoribonuclease-resistant RNAs
This study isolates two insect-specific flaviviruses from mosquitoes in Zambia and shows that their 3'UTRs contain functional xrRNA-like elements that stall Xrn1.
Chikungunya virus phylogeny and lineage-specific RNA structures
An updated CHIKV phylogeny based on 598 genomes, linking lineage structure to conserved and lineage-specific 3' UTR RNA architectures.
