There is now solid evidence that cell-to-cell trafficking of certain proteins and RNAs plays a critical role in trans-cellular regulation of gene expression to coordinate cellular differentiation and development. Such...
In this study, a modified method of the conventional RNA dot-blot hybridization was established, by replacing 32p labels with CY5 labels and replacing nylon membranes with positive-charged glass slides, for detecting ...
The apple scar skin disease (ASSD) is commonly seen in China. However, the causal agent has not been identified. In 1982—1983, Kiroki Koganezawa reported that an extra RNA in the extracts from diseased fruits was not...
It has been discovered in the past few years that viroid is a new kind of pathogen, which causes diseases in some important economic plants. Viroids may also be the causative agents of certain animal and human disease...
