Abstract excerpt

The 5' untranslated region (UTR) of the RNA of several tymoviruses contains conserved hairpins with protonatable internal loops, consisting of C-C and C-A mismatches (K. Hellendoorn, P. J. A. Michiels, R. Buitenhuis, and C. W. A. Pleij, Nucleic Acids Res. 24, 4910-4917, 1996). Here, we present a...
