Abstract:
Ribonucleic acids (RNA), are an essential part of cellular function, transcribed from DNA and translated into protein. Rather than a passive informational medium, RNA can also be highly functional and regulatory. Certain RNAs fold into specific structures giving it enzymatic properties, while others bind to specific targets to guide regulatory processes. With the advent of next-generation sequencing, a large number of novel non-coding RNAs have been discovered through whole-transcriptome sequencing. Many efforts have been made to study the structure and binding partners of these novel RNAs, in

Abstract:
Numerous small non-coding RNAs have been identified in mammalian cells, including microRNAs and piwi-interacting RNAs. The patterns of gene expression within cells can be altered in response to cellular stress. To examine the effects of cellular stress on all small RNA types, a number of human cell lines were treated with Poly(I:C), a mimic of viral infection, and the levels of small RNAs were examined by next generation sequencing. Surprisingly, we did not find many differentially expressed microRNAs, but we discovered a new class of small RNAs that were 30-35 nucleotides and showed up-regula

Abstract:
The influenza virus causes a disease that kills approximately 500,000 people worldwide each year. Influenza is a negative-sense RNA virus that encodes its own RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. This protein (FluPol) carries out both genome replication and viral transcription. Therefore, like the L-proteins of non-segmented negative-sense RNA (nsRNA) viruses, FluPol also contains mRNA capping and polyadenylation functionality. In FluPol, capping is achieved by snatching cap structures from cellular mRNAs, so requiring cap-binding and endonuclease activities. This makes FluPol a substantial machine.

RNAs are important biological macro-molecules that play critical roles in many biological processes. The functionality of RNA depends on its three-dimensional (3D) structure, which further depends on its primary structure, i.e. the order of sequence of nucleotides in the RNA chain. Direct prediction of the 3D structure of an RNA from its sequence is a challenging task. Therefore, the 3D structure is further divided into two-dimensional (2D) properties such as secondary structure, contact maps and one-dimensional (1D) properties such as torsion angles and solvent accessibility.

In order to transcribe, the FluPol generates capped RNA primers by a process termed 'cap-snatching'.
