[EN] Eggplant latent viroid (ELVd) can form stable hammerhead structures in its (+) and (¿) strands. These ribozymes have the longest helices I reported in natural hammerheads, with that of the ELVd (+) hammerhead being ...

[EN] Eggplant latent viroid (ELVd) is a relatively small non-coding circular RNA that induces asymptomatic infections in eggplants (Solanum melongena L.). Like other viroid species that belong to the family Avsunviroidae, ...
[EN] As a consequence of two unique physical properties, small size and circularity, viroid RNAs do not code for proteins and thus depend on RNA sequence/structural motifs for interacting with host proteins that mediate ...
[EN] Viroids are a unique type of infectious agent, exclusively composed of a relatively small
(246¿430 nt), highly base-paired, circular, non-coding RNA. Despite the small size and non-coding
nature, the more-than-thirty ...
[EN] Viroids are small (246¿401 nucleotides), non-coding,
circular RNAs able to replicate autonomously in certain plants.
Viroids are classified into the families Pospiviroidae and
Avsunviroidae, whose members replicate ...
