Transient expression of coding and non-coding regions of PVY confer resistance to virus infection
One of the most efficient mechanisms by which plants protect themselves from invading virusesis the specific RNA-dependent silencing pathway termed post-transcriptional gene silencing(PTGS). In this mechanism, resistance to a virus is engineered through the expression of asegment of the virus genomein transgenic plants. Potato VirusY (PVY) is one of the mostdamaging viruses of potato, infecting...
متن کاملMapping 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 ...

Background: Despite recent advances in diagnosis and treatment, breast cancer remains a leading cause of death in women worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs are a new class of RNA molecules that have been shown to participate in tumorigenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of lncUSMycN in tumor samples and to evaluate its potential role in the breast cancer cell line. Metho...
متن کاملUp-Regulation of TPT1-AS1 and SAMMSON and Down-Regulation of LINC00961 Long Non-Coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as Potential Tumor Markers in Gastric Cancer
Background and Objective:Gastric Cancer (GC) is one of the deadliest cancers in the world. Recently, LINC00961, TPT1-AS1, and SAMMSON Long non-coding RNA (lncRNAs)have been discovered, which significantly contribute to the occurrence of various cancers. This study aimed to determine the expression levels of these genes in GC tissues, compared to healthy adjacent tissues, and the relationship of...
متن کاملThe relationship between mutation frequency and replication strategy in positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses.
For positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus genomes, there is a trade-off between the mutually exclusive tasks of transcription, translation and encapsidation. The replication strategy that maximizes the intracellular growth rate of the virus requires iterative genome transcription from positive to negative, and back to positive sense. However, RNA viruses experience high mutation rates, and t...
