Shifu improves RNA secondary structure prediction by introducing a framework with a curated dataset, multi-axis evaluation, and compact language models that enhance accuracy and generalization.

elDORS provides an updated RNA sequence database to improve computational RNA analysis by integrating metagenomes and transcriptomes, enhancing multiple sequence alignment performance.

This study shows ZBP1 cannot convert unmodified dsRNA to Z-conformation, unlike ADAR1, revealing a competitive mechanism between these proteins in immune responses.

The paper presents cryo-EM structures of anti-Z-DNA antibodies bound to Z-DNA, revealing their recognition mechanism and lack of B-to-Z transition induction.

The study shows that Z domain mutations in ADAR1p150 slightly reduce A-to-I editing, likely due to mislocalization rather than editing specificity loss, and suggests phenotypes may stem from ZBP1 inhibition.

The paper identifies and characterizes a novel 'double loop' structure in tick-borne flavivirus xrRNAs, revealing a conserved mechanism of exoribonuclease resistance.

RNAhub generates RNA multiple sequence alignments and assesses conserved RNA structure using covariation analysis.

The paper shows that the Halastavi arva virus IGR IRES initiates translation without initiation factors or an AUG codon by directly placing the first codon in the decoding center.
