Abstract excerpt
Homology-dependent gene silencing is achieved in Paramecium by introduction of gene coding regions into the somatic nucleus at high copy number, resulting in reduced expression of all homologous genes. Although a powerful tool for functional analysis, the relationship of this phenomenon to gene silencing mechanisms in other organisms has remained obscure. We report here experiments using the T4a gene, a member of...
