The paper identifies three families of bacterial tRNA-like RNAs through structural and genetic analysis, linking one family to sporulation control in Clostridioides difficile.

The paper shows short RNAs can form complex structures like icosahedrons and filaments, expanding the known RNA quaternary structures and supporting RNA-based self-assembly in an RNA world.

The paper describes a Kaggle competition for RNA 3D structure prediction, showing that template-based methods can outperform deep learning approaches.

The paper reports RNA 3D structure prediction results for SARS-CoV-2 5'- and 3'-UTRs using computational methods and expert analysis.

The paper evaluates the stereochemical quality of RNA 3D models from RNA-Puzzles submissions and identifies deviations from standard RNA stereochemistry.

The paper presents 545 silkworm genomes to explore genotype-phenotype relationships, identifying new genes and variants linked to domestication and adaptation.

The paper identifies SL1, a cis-acting RNA hairpin in SARS-CoV-2 5UTR, as a key element enabling viral translation despite NSP1-mediated host translation inhibition.
