Sequence, Secondary Structure, and Phylogenetic Conservation of MicroRNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana.

MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that are produced in a cell endogenously. They are made up of 18 to 26 nucleotides in strength. Due to their evolutionary conserved nature, most of the miRNAs provide a logical basis for the prediction of novel miRNAs and their clusters in plants such as sunflowers related to the Asteraceae family. In addition, they participate in different biological processes of plants, including cell signaling and metabolism, development, growth, and tolerance to (biotic and abiotic) stresses. In this study profiling, conservation and characterization of novel miRNA possessing conserved nature in various plants and their targets annotation in sunflower (Asteraceae) were obtained by using various computational tools and software. As a result, we looked at 152 microRNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana that had already been predicted. Drought tolerance stress is mediated by these 152 non-coding RNAs. Following that, we used local alignment to predict novel microRNAs that were specific to Helianthus annuus. We used BLAST to do a local alignment, and we chose sequences with an identity of 80% to 100%. MIR156a, MIR164a, MIR165a, MIR170, MIR172a, MIR172b, MIR319a, MIR393a, MIR394a, MIR399a, MIR156h, and MIR414 are the new anticipated miRNAs. We used MFold to predict the secondary structure of new microRNAs. We used conservation analysis and phylogenetic analysis against a variety of organisms, including Gossypium hirsutum, H. annuus, A. thaliana, Triticum aestivum, Saccharum officinarum, Zea mays, Brassica napus, Solanum tuberosum, Solanum lycopersicum, and Oryza sativa, to determine the evolutionary history of these novel non-coding RNAs. Clustal W was used to analyze the evolutionary history of discovered miRNAs.

Detection of SARS-CoV-2 by using real-time PCR nasopharyngeal swabs in suspected patients and their clinical medication.

BACKGROUND: The corona name derived from their crown like spike proteins attach with cell receptors. It belongs to coronaviradae family and nideovirales order, envelop virus, size range 65-125 â€‹nm and positive single standard RNA between 26.4 and 31.7 â€‹kb and contain 7096 amino acid. There are four subtypes that have been detected these are alpha, beta, gamma and delta. METHODOLOGY: The 267 covid-19 blood and nasopharyngeal samples were collected from Multan region. RNA extraction from nasopharyngeal samples and run the PCR. The blood samples use for clinical tests, Lactate dehydrogenase, serum ferritin level, D-Dimer, TG, cholesterol, thyphoidot, HDL, lymphocyte count and CRP. RESULTS: 127 (47.21%) out of 267 patients were covid-19 PCR positive and showed the amplification of ORF1ab, E, and N gene, while 140 individuals were covid-19 PCR negative and not showed the amplification of ORF1ab, E and N gene. The patients with negative Covid-19 PCR, the other analysis tests such as lactate dehydrogenase, HDL, ferritin, ESR, CBP, D-Dimer, Tg, cholesterol, CRP and CT scan. The patients effected covid-19 have higher values of D-Dimer, ESR, Neutrophils, LDH, CRP and ferritin level than normal ranges. However, the values of HDL, cholesterol and lymphocytes were decreased from the normal range.
