Abstract excerpt
The study of viroids (plant pathogens constituted by small non-coding RNA) has greatly benefited from the use of site-directed mutagenesis tools. However, compared to viral systems, this technique is complicated by the fact that, usually, infectious cDNAs carry two copies of the viroid genome. A simple method for a one-step site-directed mutagenesis of viroids is described and tested by estimating the rate of...
