Longitudinal-relaxation-enhanced NMR experiments for the study of nucleic acids in solution.

22 Jun 2009 Atomic-resolution information on the structure and dynamics of nucleic acids is essential for a better understanding of the mechanistic basis of many cellular processes. NMR spectroscopy is a powerful method for studying the structure and dynamics ... Read more...

Evaluation of a novel 16S rRNA/tRNAVal mitochondrial marker for the identification and phylogenetic analysis of shrimp species belonging to the superfamily Penaeoidea.

16 May 2009 In this study, we infer the phylogenetic relationships within commercial shrimp using sequence data from a novel mitochondrial marker consisting of an approximately 530-bp region of the 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA)/transfer RNA (tRNA)(Val) genes ... Read more...

Contribution of ribosomal residues to P-site tRNA binding.

3 May 2009 Structural studies have revealed multiple contacts between the ribosomal P site and tRNA, but how these contacts contribute to P-tRNA binding remains unclear. In this study, the effects of ribosomal mutations on the dissociation rate (k(off)) of ... Read more...
