Designing potential siRNA molecules for silencing the gene of the nucleocapsid protein of Nipah virus: A computational investigation
Infect Genet Evol. 2022 May 27:105310. doi: 10.1016/j.meegid.2022.105310. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNipah virus (NiV), a zoonotic virus, engenders severe infections with noticeable complications and deaths in humans and animals. Since its emergence, it is frightening that this virus has been causing regular outbreaks in various countries, particularly Bangladesh, India, and Malaysia. Unfortunately, no efficient vaccine or drug is available to combat this baneful virus. It employs the nucleocapsid protein in its genetic material encapsidation, which is a crucial for viral replication. The small interfering RNAs (siRNAs)...

Computational study and design of effective siRNAs to silence structural proteins associated genes of Indian SARS-CoV-2 strains
Comput Biol Chem. 2022 Apr 29;98:107687. doi: 10.1016/j.compbiolchem.2022.107687. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSARS-CoV-2 is a highly transmissible and pathogenic coronavirus that first emerged in late 2019 and has since triggered a pandemic of acute respiratory disease named COVID-19 which poses a significant threat to all public health institutions in the absence of specific antiviral treatment. Since the outbreak began in March 2020, India has reported 4.77 lakh Coronavirus deaths, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The innate RNA interference (RNAi) pathway, on the other hand, allows for the development...
