Abstract excerpt

The availability of methods for the amplification of nucleic acid sequences allows the genetic analysis in vitro of the structural and functional properties of many nucleic acids. We have now developed an in vitro selection and amplification system, and used it to analyse the self-splicing Tetrah...
