Conserved Secondary Structures in Aspergillus
BACKGROUND Recent evidence suggests that the number and variety of functional RNAs (ncRNAs as well as cis-acting RNA elements within mRNAs) is much higher than previously thought; thus, the ability to computationally predict and analyze RNAs has taken on new importance. We have computationally studied the secondary structures in an alignment of six Aspergillus genomes. Little is known about the...
متن کاملConserved RNA secondary structures in Flaviviridae genomes.
Presented here is a comprehensive computational survey of evolutionarily conserved secondary structure motifs in the genomic RNAs of the family Flaviviridae: This virus family consists of the three genera Flavivirus, Pestivirus and Hepacivirus and the group of GB virus C/hepatitis G virus with a currently uncertain taxonomic classification. Based on the control of replication and translation, t...
متن کاملConserved RNA secondary structures in Picornaviridae genomes.
The family Picornaviridae contains important pathogens including, for example, hepatitis A virus and foot-and-mouth disease virus. The genome of these viruses is a single messenger-active (+)-RNA of 7200-8500 nt. Besides coding for the viral proteins, it also contains functionally important RNA secondary structures, among them an internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) region towards the 5'-end. T...
متن کاملConserved RNA secondary structures promote alternative splicing.
Pre-mRNA splicing is carried out by the spliceosome, which identifies exons and removes intervening introns. Alternative splicing in higher eukaryotes results in the generation of multiple protein isoforms from gene transcripts. The extensive alternative splicing observed implies a flexibility of the spliceosome to identify exons within a given pre-mRNA. To reach this flexibility, splice-site s...
متن کاملddbRNA: detection of conserved secondary structures in multiple alignments
MOTIVATION Structured non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have a very important functional role in the cell. No distinctive general features common to all ncRNA have yet been discovered. This makes it difficult to design computational tools able to detect novel ncRNAs in the genomic sequence. RESULTS We devised an algorithm able to detect conserved secondary structures in both pairwise and multiple DNA ...
