Riboswitching on RNA virus replication.
Positive-strand RNA viruses direct different virus-specific processes during their infection of host cells. Fundamental events such as viral RNA genome replication are controlled by viral regulatory RNA elements (REs). Here, we have investigated the possibility of specifically modulating the action of a viral RE using RNA aptamer technology. Through rational design, a tombusvirus RE, which has ...
متن کاملRNA Virus Replication Complexes
The majority of viruses infecting animals and plants today are RNA viruses [1]. There are double-stranded (ds) RNA viruses with dsRNA genomes, as well as (+) and (2)RNA viruses whose genomes are single-stranded (ss) RNA of either positive or negative polarity. RNA viruses have small genomes that rarely exceed 30 kb in size, and a large portion of their genomes is used to encode proteins involve...
متن کاملIdentification of RNA aptamers with riboswitching properties.
During the past years customized gene network design has become of tremendous interest among various disciplines in life science. The identification of artificial genetic elements sensitive to internal or external stimuli constitutes the foundation for the design and realization of conditional gene expression systems. Typically, strategies involving selection or screening steps are employed alo...
متن کاملHepatitis Delta Virus RNA Replication
Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a distant relative of plant viroids in the animal world. Similar to plant viroids, HDV replicates its circular RNA genome using a double rolling-circle mechanism. Nevertheless, the production of hepatitis delta antigen (HDAg), which is indispensible for HDV replication, is a unique feature distinct from plant viroids, which do not encode any protein. Here the HDV ...
متن کاملHepatitis C Virus Translation Preferentially Depends on Active RNA Replication
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA initiates its replication on a detergent-resistant membrane structure derived from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in the HCV replicon cells. By performing a pulse-chase study of BrU-labeled HCV RNA, we found that the newly-synthesized HCV RNA traveled along the anterograde-membrane traffic and moved away from the ER. Presumably, the RNA moved to the site of translati...
