Comparative Evaluation of Intron Prediction Methods and Detection of Plant Genome Annotation Using Intron Length Distributions by Long Yang, Hwan-Gue Cho

“…Further, we evaluated the intron information of 10 complete plant genomes. As non-coding sequences, intron lengths are not limited by a triplet codon frame; so, intron lengths have three phases: a multiple of three bases (3n), a multiple of three bases plus one (3n + 1), and a multiple of three bases plus two (3n + 2). …”

Development and characterization of a reverse genetics system for the lineage II Chicava strain of Machupo virus in a guinea pig model. by Emily Mantlo, Junki Maruyama, John T Manning, Rachel A Reyna, Cheng Huang, Slobodan Paessler

“…<h4>Methods</h4>We report the development of a reverse genetics system for the MACV lineage II Chicava strain, using a pRF42 plasmid encoding the L and S segment genomic RNA under the transcriptional control of a murine DNA-dependent RNA polymerase I promoter sequence. Rescue of the recombinant MACV Chicava strain (rMACV-Chicava) was accomplished by expression of the L protein and nucleoprotein genes of the MACV Carvallo strain in trans in transfected baby hamster kidney (BHK-21) cells. …”

Improved constructs for bait RNA display in a bacterial three-hybrid assay by Linh D. Nguyen, Hannah LeBlanc, Katherine E. Berry

“…One limiting factor in detecting RNA–protein interactions in the B3H assay is RNA misfolding arising from incorrect base-pair interactions with neighboring RNA sequences in a hybrid RNA. To support correct folding of hybrid bait RNAs, we have explored the use of a highly stable stem (“GC clamp”) to isolate regions of a hybrid RNA as discrete folding units. …”

New insights into the DNA extraction and PCR amplification of minute ascomycetes in the genus Laboulbenia (Pezizomycotina, Laboulbeniales) by Warre Van Caenegem, Danny Haelewaters

“…Moreover, there was no significant difference in the probability of successfully extracting DNA based on whether BSA was added or not, suggesting that the amount of melanin present in cells of the thallus has no major inhibitory effect on PCR. We generated 277 sequences from five loci, but amplification of the internal transcribed spacer region, the mitochondrial small subunit rDNA, and protein-coding genes remains challenging. …”
