Self-cleavage of plus and minus RNA transcripts of avocado sunblotch viroid
Open accessAbstract
Self-cleavage of both plus and minus RNA transcripts of the 247-residue avocado sunblotch viroid (ASBV), prepared from tandem dimeric cDNA clones, occurs specifically at two sites in each transcript to give monomeric plus and minus species. The cleavage reaction occurs both during transcription and on incubation of purified transcripts at pH 8 and 37 degrees C in the presence of magnesium ions to give a 3'-terminal 2',3'-cyclic phosphate and a 5'-terminal hydroxyl group. Although the self-cleavage occurs at different sites in the ASBV molecule for the plus and minus species, very similar secondary structures with high sequence homology can be drawn at each site. The results are considered to provide further evidence that ASBV is replicated in vivo by a rolling circle mechanism involving non-enzymic cleavage of high molecular weight RNA precursors of ASBV.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
