RNA Localisation and transposition of a non-LTR retrotransposon

  • Finnegan, David (Principal Investigator)

Project Details

Key findings

1. Identification of an structural motif that enhances the kinetics of RNA transport with the oocyte of Drosophila.
2. Demonstration that this structural motif can enhance the kinetics of the transposrt of RNAs.
3. Demonstration that this motif can mediate interaction between RNAs containing it, and that this allows one RNA to piggy-back on another.
