cis- and trans-acting elements in flavivirus RNA replication.
Most of the seven flavivirus nonstructural proteins (NS1 to NS5) encoded in the distal two-thirds of the RNA positive-sense genome are believed to be essential components of RNA replication complexes. To explore the functional relationships of these components in RNA replication, we used trans-complementation analysis of full-length infectious RNAs of Kunjin (KUN) virus with a range of lethal i...
متن کاملNovel sequence variations in LAMA2 andSGCG genes modulating cis-acting regulatory elements and RNA secondary structure
In this study, we detected new sequence variations in LAMA2 and SGCG genes in 5 ethnic populations, and analysed their effect on enhancer composition and mRNA structure. PCR amplification and DNA sequencing were performed and followed by bioinformatics analyses using ESEfinder as well as MFOLD software. We found 3 novel sequence variations in the LAMA2 (c.3174+22_23insAT and c.6085 +12delA) and...
متن کاملRNA Interference for Mosquito and Mosquito-Borne Disease Control
RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool to silence endogenous mosquito and mosquito-borne pathogen genes in vivo. As the number of studies utilizing RNAi in basic research grows, so too does the arsenal of physiological targets that can be developed into products that interrupt mosquito life cycles and behaviors and, thereby, relieve the burden of mosquitoes on human health and well-being. A...
متن کاملCis-acting influences on Alu RNA levels.
The human short interspersed repeated element (SINE), Alu, amplifies through a poorly understood RNA-mediated mechanism, termed retroposition. There are over one million copies of Alu per haploid human genome. The copies show some internal variations in sequence and are very heterogeneous in chromosomal environment. However, very few Alu elements actively amplify. The amplification rate has dec...
متن کاملAttenuation of the Langat tick-borne flavivirus by chimerization with mosquito-borne flavivirus dengue type 4.
Langat virus (LGT) strain TP21 is the most attenuated of the tick-borne flaviviruses for humans. Even though LGT has low-level neurovirulence for humans, it, and its more attenuated egg-passage derivative, strain E5, exhibit significant neurovirulence and neuroinvasiveness in normal mice, albeit less than that associated with tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), the most virulent of the tick-b...
