Abstract excerpt

Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) is believed to undergo a series of specific structural transitions during replication. The variable domain of PSTVd is known to contain sequences that are important for replication/accumulation as well as one of three "premelting regions" which control breakdow...
