Abstract excerpt
DEAD-box proteins comprise a large protein family. These proteins function in all types of processes in RNA metabolism and are highly conserved among eukaryotes. However, the precise functions of DEAD-box proteins in rice physiology and development remain unclear. In this study, we identified a rice DEAD-box protein, OsRH17, that contains a DEAD domain and all of the common conserved motifs of DEAD-box RNA...
