The paper investigates how two ruminant species digest brown algae by analyzing microbial pathways and omics data from in vivo and in vitro experiments.

The paper identifies carrageenan catabolism pathways in ruminant gut microbiomes, revealing their widespread distribution and evolutionary history.

The paper determines the structural ensemble-to-function relations of the B2 SINE ribozyme using RNA chemical probing, X-ray scattering, and modeling, showing cleavage site dependency on its structure and function.

The paper identifies sequence features in the TIAR 5' UTR that confer resistance to SARS-CoV-2 Nsp1 host shutoff, revealing shared characteristics with viral leader sequences.

This paper identifies a conserved G4 structure in the HCV negative strand 3 UTR that is essential for efficient RNA synthesis by facilitating NS3 helicase recruitment and NS5B polymerase access.
