Abstract excerpt
In vivo analyses using an autonomously replicating Agrobacterium/geminivirus vector have enabled identification of AU-rich intronic elements critical for 5' and 3' splice site selection in dicot plant nuclei and development of a model for pre-mRNA intron recognition in plant nuclei. To determine the minimal length, spacing and nucleotide compositions constraining recognition of the 3' boundary of an intron, two...
