Introduction to special issue on RNA.

In this introduction to the special issue on RNA, we provide a brief overview of some of the novel and exciting biological discoveries concerning diverse roles played by RNA, and subsequently we give a rapid summary of some algorithmic aspects of RNA structure and alignment. Each of the contributions to this special issue is briefly described.

Special Issue: Ribozymes and RNA Catalysis.

Over the past 35 years, RNA has become a molecule of utmost interest for researchers in the life sciences. The many functions that RNA fulfills in the cellular machinery have been elucidated with constant progress, revealing a complex network of RNA-mediated regulation of key processes in the cellular life cycle [...].

Introduction to special Carl Woese issue in RNA Biology

Many of us have been influenced by Carl Woese’s many contributions to science and the manner he articulated these perspectives. Others are fortunate to have known Carl. I wrote one of the many obituaries for Carl. I received numerous comments for this document. Michael Levitt said, “I had not heard that Carl had died and my sudden sorrow was tempered by your wonderful written and moving obituar...
