abstract = {RNA-protein interactions (RPIs) are crucial for accurately operating various processes in and between organisms across kingdoms of life. Mutual detection of RPI partner molecules depends on distinct sequential, structural, or thermodynamic features, which can be determined via experimental and bioinformatic methods. Still, the underlying molecular mechanisms of many RPIs are poorly understood. It is further hypothesized that many RPIs are not even described yet. Computational RPI prediction is continuously challenged by the lack of data and detailed research of very specific examples. With the discovery of novel RPI complexes in all kingdoms of life, adaptations of existing RPI prediction methods are necessary. Continuously improving computational RPI prediction is key in advancing the understanding of RPIs in detail and supplementing experimental RPI determination. The growing amount of data covering more species and detailed mechanisms support the accuracy of prediction tools, which in turn support specific experimental research on RPIs. Here, we give an overview of RPI prediction tools that do not use high-throughput data as the user's input. We review the tools according to their input, usability, and output. We then apply the tools to known RPI examples across different kingdoms of life. Our comparison shows that the investigated prediction tools do not favor a certain species and equip the user with results varying in degree of information, from an overall RPI score to detailed interacting residues. Furthermore, we provide a guide tree to assist users which RPI prediction tool is appropriate for their available input data and desired output.},

abstract = {The 2023 International Virus Bioinformatics Meeting was held in Valencia, Spain, from 24–26 May 2023, attracting approximately 180 participants worldwide. The primary objective of the conference was to establish a dynamic scientific environment conducive to discussion, collaboration, and the generation of novel research ideas. As the first in-person event following the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the meeting facilitated highly interactive exchanges among attendees. It served as a pivotal gathering for gaining insights into the current status of virus bioinformatics research and engaging with leading researchers and emerging scientists. The event comprised eight invited talks, 19 contributed talks, and 74 poster presentations across eleven sessions spanning three days. Topics covered included machine learning, bacteriophages, virus discovery, virus classification, virus visualization, viral infection, viromics, molecular epidemiology, phylodynamic analysis, RNA viruses, viral sequence analysis, viral surveillance, and metagenomics. This report provides rewritten abstracts of the presentations, a summary of the key research findings, and highlights shared during the meeting.},

abstract = {The International Virus Bioinformatics Meeting 2022 took place online, on 23-25 March 2022, and has attracted about 380 participants from all over the world. The goal of the meeting was to provide a meaningful and interactive scientific environment to promote discussion and collaboration and to inspire and suggest new research directions and questions. The participants created a highly interactive scientific environment even without physical face-to-face interactions. This meeting is a focal point to gain an insight into the state-of-the-art of the virus bioinformatics research landscape and to interact with researchers in the forefront as well as aspiring young scientists. The meeting featured eight invited and 18 contributed talks in eight sessions on three days, as well as 52 posters, which were presented during three virtual poster sessions. The main topics were: SARS-CoV-2, viral emergence and surveillance, virus-host interactions, viral sequence analysis, virus identification and annotation, phages, and viral diversity. This report summarizes the main research findings and highlights presented at the meeting.},
