[ES] En el contexto de una pandemia mundial, ocasionada por el virus SARS-CoV2, que ha provocado más de cuatro millones de fallecidos en apenas más de un año, el surgimiento de nuevas estrategias terapéuticas para luchar ...
[EN] Viroids and viroid-like satellite RNAs from plants, and the human hepatitis delta virus (HDV) RNA share some properties that include small size, circularity and replication through a rolling-circle mechanism. Replication ...
[EN] There is a subviral world, whose most prominent representatives are viroids. Despite
being solely composed by a circular, highly structured RNA of 250 to 400 nucleotides
without protein-coding ability (all viruses ...
[EN] The discovery of viroids about 45 years ago heralded a revolution in Biology: small RNAs comprising around 350 nt were found to be able to replicate autonomously and to incite diseases in certain plants without encoding ...
