SEISMICgraph: a web-based tool for RNA structure data visualization.

In recent years, RNA has been increasingly recognized for its essential roles in biology, functioning not only as a carrier of genetic information but also as a dynamic regulator of gene expression through its interactions with other RNAs, proteins, and itself. Advances in chemical probing techniques have significantly enhanced our ability to identify RNA secondary structures and understand their regulatory roles. These developments, alongside improvements in experimental design and data processing, have greatly increased the resolution and throughput of structural analyses.

Perceived Benefits and Barriers of a COVID-19 Test to Stay Program in a School District Serving Black or African American People With Low Income, December 2021.

Objectives: Quarantine after exposure to COVID-19 has resulted in substantial loss of in-person learning in schools from prekindergarten through grade 12. Test to Stay (TTS), a strategy that limits the spread of SARS-CoV-2 while prioritizing in-person learning, requires substantial investment in resources. The objective of this study was to assess the perceived benefits, barriers, and facilitators of implementing TTS in an urban school district in the Midwest serving primarily Black or African American people with low income.

A comprehensive thermodynamic model for RNA binding by the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pumilio protein PUF4.

Genomic methods have been valuable for identifying RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and the genes, pathways, and processes they regulate. Nevertheless, standard motif descriptions cannot be used to predict all RNA targets or test quantitative models for cellular interactions and regulation. We present a complete thermodynamic model for RNA binding to the S.

Versatile Target-Guided Screen for Discovering Bidirectional Transcription Inhibitors of a Trinucleotide Repeat Disease.

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 originates from d(CTG·CAG) repeats that undergo aberrant expansion during normal processing because the d(CTG) repeat forms stable hairpin structures. Bidirectional transcription of d(CTG·CAG) yields two RNA transcripts that undergo repeat-associated non-ATG (RAN) translation to form homopolymeric proteins. Thus, both the r(CUG) transcript and the r(CAG) transcript are known to be toxic.
