...Huakun Zhang; Yiliang Ding RNA folding is an intrinsic property of RNA that serves a key role in every step of post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression, from RNA maturation to translation in plants. Recent developments of genome-wide RNA structure profiling methods have transformed...

... genomes are known to fold into stable structures, controlling several aspects of CoV life cycle, from the regulation of the discontinuous transcription of subgenomic mRNAs, to the packaging of the genome into new virions. Here we review the current knowledge on CoV RNA structures, discussing it in light...

...Chun Kit Kwok RNA is one of the most fascinating biomolecules in living systems given its structural versatility to fold into elaborate architectures for important biological functions such as gene regulation, catalysis, and information storage. Knowledge of RNA structures and interactions can...

...Julia Kenyon; Liam Prestwood; Andrew Lever The range of roles played by structured RNAs in biological systems is vast. At the same time as we are learning more about the importance of RNA structure, recent advances in reagents, methods and technology mean that RNA secondary structural probing has...

.... This IRES, conserved in all three lentiviruses examined, presents conserved structural motifs that are crucial for its activity, thus reinforcing the link between RNA structure and function. However, there are still important gaps in our understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying IRES-dependent...
