Palindromes in SARS and Other Coronaviruses
With the identification of a novel coronavirus associated with the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), computational analysis of its RNA genome sequence is expected to give useful clues to help elucidate the origin, evolution, and pathogenicity of the virus. In this paper, we study the collective counts of palindromes in the SARS genome along with all the completely sequenced coronaviruse...
متن کاملSARS-CoV-Encoded Small RNAs Contribute to Infection-Associated Lung Pathology.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) causes lethal disease in humans, which is characterized by exacerbated inflammatory response and extensive lung pathology. To address the relevance of small non-coding RNAs in SARS-CoV pathology, we deep sequenced RNAs from the lungs of infected mice and discovered three 18-22 nt small viral RNAs (svRNAs). The three svRNAs were derived fr...
متن کاملInhibition of severe acute respiratory syndrome virus replication by small interfering RNAs in mammalian cells.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is an acute respiratory infectious disease that spread worldwide in early 2003. The cause was determined as a novel coronavirus (CoV), SARS-associated CoV (SARS-CoV), with a single-stranded, plus-sense RNA. To date, no effective specific treatment has been identified. To exploit the possibility of using RNA interference as a therapeutic approach to fight...
متن کاملIntegrative Deep Sequencing of the Mouse Lung Transcriptome Reveals Differential Expression of Diverse Classes of Small RNAs in Response to Respiratory Virus Infection
UNLABELLED We previously reported widespread differential expression of long non-protein-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in response to virus infection. Here, we expanded the study through small RNA transcriptome sequencing analysis of the host response to both severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and influenza virus infections across four founder mouse strains of the Collaborative Cro...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of three novel small interference RNAs that effectively down-regulate the isolated nucleocapsid gene expression of SARS coronavirus.
Nucleocapsid (N) protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is a major pathological determinant in the host that may cause host cell apoptosis, upregulate the proinflammatory cytokine production, and block innate immune responses. Therefore, N gene has long been thought an ideal target for the design of small interference RNA (siRNA). siRNA is a class of smal...
