Rearrangement of T-cell receptor beta-chain genes during T-cell development.

abstract：:DNA sequences in Neurospora crassa that code for ribosomal RNA have been isolated in a highly purified state by DNA-RNA hybridization. About 100 separate ribosomal RNA genes exist in each nucleus. These genes are composed of repeated sequences that are present about 100 times per nucleus. The individual members of thi...
