Abstract
Initiation of protein-primed (-) strand DNA synthesis in hepatitis B virus (HBV) requires interaction of the viral polymerase with a cis-acting regulatory signal, designated epsilon (ε), located at the 5'-end of its pre-genomic RNA (pgRNA). Binding of polymerase to ε is also necessary for pgRNA encapsidation. While the mechanistic basis of this interaction remains elusive, mutagenesis studies suggest its internal 6-nt "priming loop" provides an important structural contribution. ε might therefore be considered a promising target for small molecule interventions to complement current nucleoside-analog based anti-HBV therapies. An ideal prerequisite to any RNA-directed small molecule strategy would be a detailed structural description of this important element. Herein, we present a solution NMR structure for HBV ε which, in combination with molecular dynamics and docking simulations, reports on a flexible ligand "pocket", reminiscent of those observed in proteins. We also demonstrate the binding of the selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) Raloxifene, Bazedoxifene, and a de novo derivative to the priming loop.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Information about the structure, dynamics, and ligand-binding properties of biomolecules can be derived from Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and provides valuable information for drug discovery. A multitude of experimental approaches provides a wealth of information that can be tailored to the system of interest. Methods to study the behavior of ligands upon target binding enable the identification of weak binders in a robust manner that is critical for the identification of truly novel binding interactions. This is particularly important for challenging targets. Observing the solution behavior of biomolecules yields information about their structure, dynamics, and interactions. This review describes the breadth of approaches that are available, many of which are under-utilized in a drug-discovery environment, and focuses on recent advances that continue to emerge.

Abstract
RNA structural research lags behind that of proteins, preventing a robust understanding of RNA functions. NMR spectroscopy is an apt technique for probing the structures and dynamics of RNA molecules in solution at atomic resolution. Still, RNA analysis by NMR suffers from spectral overlap and line broadening, both of which worsen for larger RNAs. Incorporation of stable isotope labels into RNA has provided several solutions to these challenges. In this review, we summarize the benefits and limitations of various methods used to obtain isotope-labeled RNA building blocks and how they are used to prepare isotope-labeled RNA for NMR structure and dynamics studies.

Abstract
Modifications of short RNAs at specific sites can be achieved commercially by solid-phase chemical synthesis method. However, labelling long RNAs is still challenging for the routine methods. Position-selective Labelling of RNA (PLOR) is a hybrid phase transcription method that allows to label RNAs at desired sites with great flexibility and decent efficiency. In principle, PLOR is a promising method for synthesis of long modified RNAs that are unable to be generated by solid-phase chemical synthesis and other methods. However, as a recently developed method, PLOR has been only applied to label a 71nt and a 104nt RNA, and the limited sequence applications of PLOR may hinder its potential usages. To extend PLOR to more RNAs, we tested the PLOR performances for various RNA sequences. Considering that the controlled transcriptional pauses at the initiation stage in PLOR may lead to different preferences on RNA sequences from in vitro transcription method, we here focused on identifying the effects of the 5'-end and initiated lengths of RNA on PLOR. In addition, our work demonstrated that PLOR efficiencies also varied with linker sizes of DNA templates. This work can facilitate PLOR to be the choice of synthesizing long modified RNAs for more users in the near future.

Abstract
RNAs are key players in life as they connect the genetic code (DNA) with all cellular processes dominated by proteins. They contain a variety of chemical modifications and many RNAs fold into complex structures. Here, we review recent progress in the analysis of RNA modification and structure on the basis of stable isotope labeling techniques. Mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy are the key tools and many breakthrough developments were made possible by the analysis of stable isotope labeled RNA. Therefore, we discuss current stable isotope labeling techniques such as metabolic labeling, enzymatic labeling and chemical synthesis. RNA structure analysis by NMR is challenging due to two major problems that become even more salient when the size of the RNA increases, namely chemical shift overlaps and line broadening leading to complete signal loss. Several isotope labeling strategies have been developed to provide solutions to these major issues, such as deuteration, segmental isotope labeling or site-specific labeling. Quantification of modified nucleosides in RNA by MS is only possible through the application of stable isotope labeled internal standards. With nucleic acid isotope labeling coupled mass spectrometry (NAIL-MS), it is now possible to analyze the dynamic processes of post-transcriptional RNA modification and demodification. The trend, in both NMR and MS RNA analytics, is without doubt shifting from the analysis of snapshot moments towards the development and application of tools capable of analyzing the dynamics of RNA structure and modification profiles.

Abstract
We highlight that sufficient hydration of non-crystallized RNA could provide high-resolution solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectra, with similar spectral quality to the crystallized RNA. This leads to a greatly simplified RNA preparation approach by ethanol precipitation for high-resolution SSNMR studies. It will greatly broaden the scope of SSNMR applications to the characterization of RNAs.

Abstract
NMR assignment typically involves analysis of peaks across multiple NMR spectra. Chemical shifts of peaks are measured before being assigned to atoms using a variety of methods. These approaches quickly become complicated by overlap, ambiguity, and the complexity of correlating assignments among multiple spectra. Here we propose an alternative approach in which a network of linked peak-boxes is generated at the predicted positions of peaks across all spectra. These peak-boxes correlate known relationships and can be matched to the observed spectra. The method is illustrated with RNA, but a variety of molecular types should be readily tractable with this approach.

Abstract
RNA structure and dynamic studies by NMR spectroscopy suffer from chemical shift overlap and line broadening, both of which become worse as RNA size increases. Incorporation of stable isotope labels into RNA has provided several solutions to these limitations. Nevertheless, the only method to circumvent the problem of spectral overlap completely is the solid-phase chemical synthesis of RNA with labeled RNA phosphoramidites. In this review, we summarize the practical aspects of this methodology for NMR spectroscopy studies of RNA. These types of investigations lie at the intersection of chemistry and biophysics and highlight the need for collaborative efforts to tackle the integrative structural biology problems that exist in the RNA world. Finally, examples of RNA structure and dynamic studies using labeled phosphoramidites are highlighted.

Abstract
In common with other self-cleaving RNAs, the lead-dependent ribozyme (leadzyme) undergoes dynamic fluctuations to a chemically activated conformation. We explored the connection between conformational dynamics and self-cleavage function in the leadzyme using a combination of NMR spin-relaxation analysis of ribose groups and conformational restriction via chemical modification. The functional studies were performed with a North-methanocarbacytidine modification that prevents fluctuations to C2'-endo conformations while maintaining an intact 2'-hydroxyl nucleophile. Spin-relaxation data demonstrate that the active-site Cyt-6 undergoes conformational exchange attributed to sampling of a minor C2'-endo state with an exchange lifetime on the order of microseconds to tens of microseconds. A conformationally restricted species in which the fluctuations to the minor species are interrupted shows a drastic decrease in self-cleavage activity. Taken together, these data indicate that dynamic sampling of a minor species at the active site of this ribozyme, and likely of related naturally occurring motifs, is strongly coupled to catalytic function. The combination of NMR dynamics analysis with functional probing via conformational restriction is a general methodology for dissecting dynamics-function relationships in RNA.

Abstract
Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) relaxation dispersion NMR experiments are invaluable for probing sparsely and transiently populated biomolecular states that cannot be directly detected by traditional NMR experiments and that are invisible by other biophysical approaches. A notable gap for RNA is the absence of CPMG experiments for measurement of methine base 1H and methylene C5' chemical shifts of ribose moieties in the excited state, partly because of complications from homonuclear 13C-13C scalar couplings. Here we present site-specific 13C labeling that makes possible the design of pulse sequences for recording accurate 1H-13C MQ and SQ CPMG experiments for ribose methine H1'-C1' and H2'-C2', base and ribose 1H CPMG, as well as a new 1H-13C TROSY-detected methylene (CH2) C5' CPMG relaxation pulse schemes. We demonstrate the utility of these experiments for two RNAs, the A-Site RNA known to undergo exchange and the IRE RNA suspected of undergoing exchange on microseconds to millisecond time-scale. We anticipate the new labeling approaches will facilitate obtaining structures of invisible states and provide insights into the relevance of such states for RNA-drug interactions.
