Design and applications of versatile small mole-cule dependent RNA of interest release platform
(2019)

Andreas Schmidt
- This dissertation contains two chapters. Each chapter covers a unique topic within RNA science and is divided in two sub sections, part A and B. Each chapter contains an introduction.
Chapter 1 gives an insight into challenges encountered during sample design and preparation for single molecule Förster energy transfer (smFRET) spectroscopy and offers a solution via a newly establishedestablished workflow to obtain accurate smFRET constructs. Following this workflow, a FRET network could be generated, which allowed a detailed structural dynamics study on H/ACA RNP during catalysis with smFRET spectroscopy. This led to detailed mechanistic insights into H/ACA RNPs dynamics during catalysis.
Chapter 2 deals with RNA synthetic biology whereby a novel eclectic design strategy for RNA of interest (ROI) release platform is presented, which allows to release a diverse ROI sequences with single nucleotide precision triggered by an external stimulus. This design strategy was used to establish a ROI release system and its powerful performance in in vitro and in vivo applications was shown.
