Mapping overlapping functional elements embedded within the protein-coding regions of RNA viruses
Identification of the full complement of genes and other functional elements in any virus is crucial to fully understand its molecular biology and guide the development of effective control strategies. RNA viruses have compact multifunctional genomes that frequently contain overlapping genes and non-coding functional elements embedded within protein-coding sequences. Overlapping features often ...
متن کامل“The Evolutionary Impact of Functional RNA Secondary Structures within Protein- Coding Regions in Yeast”
Literature Review Previous use of duplicate genes produced by whole genome duplication in yeast Because analysis of gene duplicates provides some insight into determining if the predicted fRNAs from this study are genuine, it is useful to review the significance of gene duplication and previous studies investigating the evolutionary patterns resulting from a whole genome duplication in yeast. G...
متن کاملOverlapping codes within protein-coding sequences.
Genomes encode multiple signals, raising the question of how these different codes are organized along the linear genome sequence. Within protein-coding regions, the redundancy of the genetic code can, in principle, allow for the overlapping encoding of signals in addition to the amino acid sequence, but it is not known to what extent genomes exploit this potential and, if so, for what purpose....
متن کاملProtein-coding structured RNAs: A computational survey of conserved RNA secondary structures overlapping coding regions in drosophilids.
Functional RNA elements can be embedded also within exonic sequences coding for functional proteins. While not uncommon in viruses, only a few examples of this type have been described in some detail for eukaryotic genomes. Here we use RNAz and RNAcode, two comparative genomics methods that measure signatures of stabilizing selection acting on RNA secondary structure and peptide sequence, resp....
متن کاملA comparative method for finding and folding RNA secondary structures within protein-coding regions.
Existing computational methods for RNA secondary-structure prediction tacitly assume RNA to only encode functional RNA structures. However, experimental studies have revealed that some RNA sequences, e.g. compact viral genomes, can simultaneously encode functional RNA structures as well as proteins, and evidence is accumulating that this phenomenon may also be found in Eukaryotes. We here prese...
