Detection of Viroid-like RNA Molecules in Korean Peonies (Paeonia lactiflora)
한국산 작약(Paeonia lactiflora)으로부터 바이로이드 유사 RNA 분자의 검출
Abstract
Viroid-like RNA molecules were detected from the low molecular weight RNAs isolated from the Korean peonies which showed typical viroid symptoms of epinasty and dwarfing. Low molecular weight RNAs including viroid RNA molecules were purified by the Qiagen anion exchange minicolumns. Viroid-like RNA molecules showed a single viroid specific band in the native polyacrylamide gel. They were separated into two bands in the denaturing gel conditions. The band of circular form of viroid-like RNAs was crossed over the horizontal band of the linear form of viroid-like RNA molecules in 0~8 M urea gradient gel under the denaturing conditions of 37
