Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) expresses an abundant nuclear noncoding RNA called EBER2, which interacts with and acts as a guide RNA for the host transcription factor PAX5. This ribonucleoprotein complex localizes to the terminal repeat (TR) regions of the EBV genome

As a member of NDR protein kinase family and a novel protein kinase of Hippo signal pathway, Serine/threonine kinase 38 (STK38) plays a very significant role in the innate immune. In mammals, STK38 performs its function by combining with GSK3β.

Frontiers in microbiology, 11, 1440-1440 (2020-07-17)
All RNA viruses encode the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) which replicates and transcribes viral RNA. This essential viral enzyme does not exist in mammalian cells, thus presents a main target for the development of antiviral drugs with potential pan-antiviral activity.

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. What structure is on the 5' end of this RNA (5' monophosphate?) and is this known to be sensed by any cellular RNA sensors?

    1 answer
    1. This product has a phosphate group at the 5' end. No information is available regarding the ability of this product to be sensed by cellular RNA sensors.

      Helpful?

  2. What would be the ideal buffer to dissolve the poly(C) in for ideal long-term storage?

    1 answer
    1. The solubility of this product is tested in water at approximately 20 mg/mL. The solubility has not been tested in a buffer solution. However, the Polyuridylic acid potassium salt, P9528, offers a datasheet that notes the material may not be completely soluble in Tris buffer at 1 mg/mL.

      Helpful?

  3. What is the size range? How many nucleotides per molecule?

    1 answer
    1. Unfortunately, the particle size range and nucleotides number are not tested as per the COA of P4903: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/certificates/sapfs/PROD/sap/certificate_pdfs/COFA/Q14/P4903-100MG0000303636.pdf
      There is a reference value for degree of polymerization (DP) available to roughly estimate the nucleotides number, which is ~485. The value could vary lot by lot.
