BACKGROUND: Deoxyribozymes or DNAzymes represent artificial short DNA sequences bearing many catalytic properties. In particular, DNAzymes able to cleave RNA sequences have a huge potential in gene therapy and sequence-specific analytic detection of ...
5-Methylcytosine (m5C) plays a pivotal role in various RNA metabolic processes, including RNA localization, stability, and translation. Current high-throughput sequencing technologies for m5C site identification are resource-intensive in terms of cos...
The 3D structure of RNA critically influences its functionality, and understanding this structure is vital for deciphering RNA biology. Experimental methods for determining RNA structures are labour-intensive, expensive, and time-consuming. Computati...
Advanced deep learning and statistical methods can predict structural models for RNA molecules. However, RNAs are flexible, and it remains difficult to describe their macromolecular conformations in solutions where varying conditions can induce confo...
Much of the human genome is transcribed into RNAs, many of which contain structural elements that are important for their function. Such RNA molecules-including those that are structured and well-folded-are conformationally heterogeneous and flexible...
