Chaperna: linking the ancient RNA and protein worlds.

Abstract:

:As a mental framework for the transition of self-replicating biological forms, the RNA world concept stipulates a dual function of RNAs as genetic substance and catalyst. The chaperoning function is found intrinsic to ribozymes involved in protein synthesis and tRNA maturation, enriching the primordial RNA world with proteins of biological relevance. The ribozyme-resident protein folding activity, even before the advent of protein-based molecular chaperone, must have expedited the transition of the RNA world into the present protein theatre.

  • A family of non-classical pseudoknots in influenza A and B viruses.

    abstract::A very conserved pseudoknot structure has been shown to fold in influenza virus RNA. The pseudoknot encompasses the 3' splice site of segment 8 RNA in both influenza A and B viruses. By sequence comparison of influenza virus strains, we derive a consensus motif that defines a novel RNA pseudoknot family. The orientati...
