Viroids, small circular RNAs (246-401 nt) with a high content in secondary structure that until recently have been detected only in higher plants, are the simplest infectious agents in the biological scale and do not encode ...
López-Carrasco, María Amparo; Flores Pedauye, Ricardo(Landes Bioscience, 2017)
[EN] With a minimal (250-400nt), non-protein-coding, circular RNA genome, viroids rely on sequence/structural motifs for replication and colonization of their host plants. These motifs are embedded in a compact secondary ...
