Structural heterogeneity and dynamics in the apical stem loop of s2m from SARS-CoV-2 Delta by an integrative NMR spectroscopy and MD simulation approach Abstract. In structured RNAs, helical elements are often capped by apical loops that are integral structural elements, ranging from 3 to >20 nts of size

New publication in @narjournal.bsky.social - Using NMR, SAXS & MD, we characterize the dynamic nonaloop of the SARS-CoV-2 Delta s2m RNA, contributing to future ensemble-functional studies of dynamic RNA motifs.

An RNA Splicing System that Excises Transposons from Animal mRNAs All genomes harbor mobile genetic parasites called transposable elements (TEs). Here we describe a system, which we term SOS splicing, that protects C. elegans and human genes from DNA transposon-medi...

Cool story - SOS splicing to remove transposons in mRNA! Though not by the spliceosome.
