Abstract:
:The assembly origin (AO) region of the tobacco mosaic virus RNA melts in an usually narrow (2.5 degrees C) temperature range. In an 0.01 M phosphate buffer the melting temperature of AO was found to be 41.5 degrees C. This value corresponds to the regions with the most stable secondary/tertiary structure of the whole TMV RNA molecule. It is assumed that the AO region has a specific tertiary structure, which is maintained by the long-range interactions as well as by interactions of the pseudoknot type.
