Building a stable RNA U-turn with a protonated cytidine.
The U-turn is a classical three-dimensional RNA folding motif first identified in the anticodon and T-loops of tRNAs. It also occurs frequently as a building block in other functional RNA structures in many different sequence and structural contexts. U-turns induce sharp changes in the direction of the RNA backbone and often conform to the 3-nt consensus sequence 5'-UNR-3' (N = any nucleotide, ...
متن کاملAutoantibodies make a U-turn
Like the immune response itself, our efforts to understand the "rules" for self-nonself discrimination are constantly evolving. The discovery of pattern recognition receptors-the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family in particular-shifted the emphasis of self-nonself recognition from lymphocytes functioning in the adaptive immune system to antigen-presenting cells (APCs) functioning in the innate imm...
متن کاملHammerhead ribozyme structure: U-turn for RNA structural biology.
Two crystal structures of the hammerhead ribozyme provide the first atomic-resolution views of an RNA active site, and suggest that the catalytic center may reside in a U-turn motif which was first seen in tRNA(Phe).

Following the disaster at Fukushima-Daiichi, chancellor Angela Merkel decided to speed up rather than slow down Germany's exit from nuclear power.
متن کاملIdentification of the yeast cytidine deaminase CDD1 as an orphan C-->U RNA editase.
Yeast co-expressing rat APOBEC-1 and a fragment of human apolipoprotein B (apoB) mRNA assembled functional editosomes and deaminated C6666 to U in a mooring sequence-dependent fashion. The occurrence of APOBEC-1-complementing proteins suggested a naturally occurring mRNA editing mechanism in yeast. Previously, a hidden Markov model identified seven yeast genes encoding proteins possessing putat...
