An RNA that multiplies indefinitely with DNA-dependent RNA polymerase: selection from a random copolymer.

Abstract:

:We have selected from a mixture of random polynucleotides an RNA that is able to replicate in the presence of the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase of Escherichia coli, provided the medium contains Mn(2+) and ITP, in addition to ATP, CTP, and UTP. The RNA consists of a chain of about 125 (+/-25) nucleotides and appears to have a defined, nonrepetitive sequence.

  • H5N8 and H7N9 packaging signals constrain HA reassortment with a seasonal H3N2 influenza A virus.

    abstract::Influenza A virus (IAV) has a segmented genome, which (i) allows for exchange of gene segments in coinfected cells, termed reassortment, and (ii) necessitates a selective packaging mechanism to ensure incorporation of a complete set of segments into virus particles. Packaging signals serve as segment identifiers and e...
