Infectivity of lambda heteroduplex deoxyribonucleic acid molecules.
Heteroduplex deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules were formed in vitro by denaturing and renaturing a mixture of DNAs from a variety of lambda strains. The infectivity of these heteroduplexes was studied by using host-controlled modification and restriction to prevent infection by contaminating parental homoduplexes. Either strand was able to protect against degradation by restriction nuclease...

Viroids are autonomously replicating, small singlestranded circular RNA molecules that do not code for proteins and may cause disease in infected, susceptible plants. Viroids have the ability to induce both RNA-mediated transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) and posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS) in infected plants. Viroid PTGS has also been demonstrated in a wheat germ extract system. A p...
متن کاملNeurodegeneration: Nicked to Death
Ataxia oculomotor apraxia-1 is a neurological disorder that arises from mutations in the gene encoding the protein aprataxin. A recent study demonstrates that aprataxin is critical for the processing of obstructive DNA termini, suggesting a broader role for DNA single-strand break repair in neurodegenerative disease.
متن کاملThe viroid and viroid-like RNA database
The viroid and viroid-like RNA database is a compilation of all natural sequences published in journals or available from the GenBank and EMBL nucleotide sequence libraries. Several information regarding these RNA species such as the position of their self-catalytic domains and the open reading frame of the human hepatitits delta virus are provided. The database also includes a determination of...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of the original Brazilian isolate of coleus yellow viroid from Solenostemon scutellarioides and infectivity of its complementary DNA.
The complete nucleotide (nt) sequence of the original coleus yellow viroid (CYVd) from Solenostemon scutellarioides, 'Golden Bedder', has been determined. The covalently closed single-stranded CYVd RNA molecule consists of 248 nt residues which assumes a rod-like secondary structure when folded in the model of lowest free energy. The sequence was determined by direct sequencing of RNA and from ...
