Abstract excerpt
The role of spliced leader RNA (SL RNA) in trans-splicing in Caenorhabditis elegans has been studied through a combination of in vitro mutagenesis and in vivo complementation of rrs-1 mutant nematodes, which lack endogenous SL1 RNA. Three classes of mutant SL1 RNAs have been found-those that rescue the lethal phenotype at low concentration of transforming DNA, those that rescue at high but not low concentration,...
