Detection of double-stranded RNA by immunoblot electrophoresis. 1986

C J Gabriel

A procedure is described which permits the serological detection of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) which has been electrophoretically transferred from agarose gels to Zeta-Probe blotting membranes. Cucumber mosaic virus replicative forms of RNAs 1-3 and cassava (Manihot esculenta) clone 'Secundina' dsRNAs can be routinely detected from 1 g of leaf tissue. This procedure allows for the detection and size estimation of dsRNAs in crude nucleic acid preparations.

D012330	RNA, Double-Stranded	RNA consisting of two strands as opposed to the more prevalent single-stranded RNA. Most of the double-stranded segments are formed from transcription of DNA by intramolecular base-pairing of inverted complementary sequences separated by a single-stranded loop. Some double-stranded segments of RNA are normal in all organisms.	Double-Stranded RNA,Double Stranded RNA,RNA, Double Stranded
