2KPC, 2KPD - PubMed Abstract: 
To what extent small differences in RNA sequences (mutations) can have a profound impact on biology remains an intriguing question. This effect can be studied by using untranslated RNA regions as a model. We have studied the influence of mutations on the structure of an RNA hairpin that occurs in the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of Flaviviridae, and is known to have a large impact on the vector dependency of flaviviruses ...
