The cistron DNA is transcribed into the first of a series of RNA intermediates.
2.
This process might involve suppression of crossing-over, translocation of chromosome fragments and possibly occasional cistron duplication.
3.
RyhB binds to the second cistron of iscRSUA, which encodes machinery for biosynthesis of Fe-S clusters.
4.
The term cistron was coined by Seymour Benzer in an article entitled " The elementary units of heredity ".
5.
Overall, the genome is 10-15 % longer than average potyvirus genome lengths; fittingly, cistron also is uniquely large in this virus.
6.
Debler, however, said he agrees with Immunex's contention that the IL-1 patents it will assign to Cistron are of little value.
7.
Another approach would be to use a single two-cistron vector or design the coding sequences in tandem as a bi-or poly-cistronic construct.
8.
For example, an operon is a stretch of DNA that is transcribed to create a contiguous segment of RNA, but contains more than one cistron / gene.
9.
The cistron was defined by an operational test applicable to most organisms that is sometimes referred to as a cis-trans test, but more often as a complementation test.
10.
They also said IL-1 later proved to have no commercial value, and that Cistron could have developed IL-1 itself because it applied for and received a patent on it too.
