Plant-derived transfer DNAs.
The transfer of DNA from Agrobacterium to plant cell nuclei is initiated by a cleavage reaction within the 25-bp right border of Ti plasmids. In an effort to develop all-native DNA transformation vectors, 50 putative right border alternatives were identified in both plant expressed sequence tags and genomic DNA. Efficacy tests in a tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) model system demonstrated that 14 o...
متن کاملGenomic drift and evolution of microsatellite DNAs in human populations.
In recent years, copy number variation (CNV) of DNA segments has become a hot topic in the study of genetic variation, and a large amount of CNVs has been uncovered in human populations. The CNVs involving the smallest units of DNA segments are microsatellite DNAs, and the evolutionary change of microsatellite DNAs is believed to occur mostly by the increase or decrease of one repeat unit at a ...
متن کاملThose mysterious sequences of satellite DNAs
Since the early beginnings of understanding the genome structure, it has been realized that highly abundant, noncoding DNA sequences repeated in tandem, satellite DNAs, compose significant portions of every eukaryotic genome (1, 2). Satellite DNAs are located in heterochromatic chromosomal regions usually formed around centromeres and at chromosome termini at interstitial positions. Little is k...
متن کاملGenomic structure of new Tunisian peach latent mosaic viroid variants.
Peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd) is a single-stranded circular RNA that do not code for proteins and ranges in size from 335 to 351 nucleotides. It mainly infects peach. In this study, the sequence of 20 complete cDNA clones derived from seven PLMVd isolates detected in five Tunisian peach cultivars was analysed in 3 steps: primary structure, phylogeny and secondary structure. The analysis of...
متن کاملThe interaction between plant viroid-induced symptoms and RNA silencing.
A large body of evidence has lead to the suggestive proposal of a potential interplay between viroid-induced pathogenesis and RNA silencing regulatory mechanisms. A variety of techniques have been used to examine this interaction. This chapter outlines the use of a green fluorescent protein (GFP) sensor, containing viroid-specific sequence targets to study this phenomenon. In addition, a sympto...
