The paper develops tRAM-seq to study tRNA expression and modification during zebrafish embryo development, revealing a reprogramming of the tRNA pool around gastrulation.

The paper introduces a targeted RNA-RNA interaction kinetics model to analyze kinetic properties of RNA-RNA interactions and identifies key features that influence interaction formation.

The paper introduces bi-alignments to model incongruent evolution of RNA sequence and structure, showing they are a special case of 4-way alignments and finding such incongruence is not rare in the Rfam database.

The paper identifies 27 new telomerase RNAs in Saccharomycetacea but finds that most Saccharomycotina genomes lack annotated telomerase RNA due to sequence variability.
