Design and Preparation of a Multimeric Self-Cleaving Hammerhead Ribozyme
The activity of a ribozyme can be impaired by additional sequences at the 5′ and 3′ termini of the catalytic sequence. To approach this problem, a system was designed that minimizes sequences upstream and downstream from active regions of a hammerhead ...

Dual Promoters Improve the Rescue of Recombinant Measles Virus in Human Cells
Reverse genetics is a technology that allows the production of a virus from its complementary DNA (cDNA). It is a powerful tool for analyzing viral genes, the development of novel vaccines, and gene delivery vectors.

RNA elements and their biotechnological applications in plants
Summary Engineering of plants for improved traits and efficient heterologous protein production can be achieved by modifying or introducing cis‐ or trans‐acting RNA elements. The function of these elements depends not only on their nucleotide sequence but also on their highly dynamic higher order structures.
