HP0495 (Swiss-Prot ID; Y495_HELPY) is an 86-residue hypothetical protein from Helicobacter pylori strain 26695. The function of HP0495 cannot be identified based on sequence homology, and HP0495 is included in a fairly unique sequence family. Here, we report the sequence-specific backbone resonance assignments of HP0495. About 97% of all the 1HN, 15N, 13Calpha, 13Cbeta, and 13CO resonances were assigned unambiguously. We could predict the secondary structure of HP0495, by analyzing the deviation of the 13Calpha and 13Cbeta shemical shifts from their respective random coil values. Secondary structure prediction shows that HP0495 consists of two alpha-helices and four beta-strands. This study is a prerequisite for determining the solution structure of HP0495 and investigating the protein-protein interaction between HP0495 and other Helicobacter pylori proteins.

Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are noncoding RNAs involved in protein biosynthesis and have noncanonical roles in cellular metabolism, such as RNA silencing and the generation of transposable elements. Extensive tRNA gene duplications, modifications to mature tRNAs, and complex secondary and tertiary structures impede tRNA sequencing. As such, a comparative genomic analysis of complete tRNA sets is an alternative to understanding the evolutionary processes that gave rise to the extant tRNA sets.

We present CaCoFold-R3D, a probabilistic grammar that predicts these RNA 3D motifs (also termed modules) jointly with RNA secondary structure over a sequence or alignment. CaCoFold-R3D uses evolutionary information present in an RNA alignment to reliably identify canonical helices (including pseudoknots) by covariation.

Whether these activities are all linked is unclear.

The Mn aptamers share key features but diverge in other important elements, including within the metal-binding core. Although X-ray crystal structures of isolated aptamers exist, these structural snapshots lack crucial details about how the aptamer communicates the presence or absence of ligand to the expression platform.

Biological data visualization is challenged by the growing complexity of datasets. Traditional single-data plots or simple juxtapositions often fail to fully capture dataset intricacies and interrelations. To address this, we introduce "cross-layout," a novel visualization paradigm that integrates multiple plot types in a cross-like structure, with a central main plot surrounded by secondary plots for enhanced contextualization and interrelation insights.
