Journal ArticleDOI

rRNA modifications and ribosome function.

TL;DR: Three-dimensional maps of the modified nucleotides in the ribosomes of Escherichia coli and yeast suggest that many ribosome functions benefit from nucleotide modification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequencing of the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) genome provides insights into vertebrate evolution

J. Joshua Smith, +59 more
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: Analyses of the assembly indicate that two whole-genome duplications likely occurred before the divergence of ancestral lamprey and gnathostome lineages, and help define key evolutionary events within vertebrate lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 3D rRNA modification maps database: with interactive tools for ribosome analysis.

TL;DR: The 3D rRNA modification maps database is the first general resource of information about the locations of modified nucleotides within the 3D structure of the full ribosome, with mRNA and tRNAs in the A-, P- and E-sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide searching for pseudouridylation guide snoRNAs: analysis of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome

TL;DR: 41 of the 44 known pseudouridine modifications in S.cerevisiae rRNA have been linked with a verified snoRNA, providing the most complete accounting of the H/ACA snoRNAs that guide pseudouridylation in any species.
