An organ-like structure produced in culture, such as leaves, roots or callus.
Industry:Biotechnology
An outer one- to four-cell layered region of the apical meristem, where cell division is anticlinal, i.e., perpendicular to the surface.
Industry:Biotechnology
An RNA molecule (or a part of it) which hybridizes with eukaryotic mRNA and aids in the splicing of intron sequences. Guide sequences may be either external (EGS) or internal (IGS) to the RNA being processed and may hybridize with either intron or exon sequences close to the splice junction.
Industry:Biotechnology
An RNA molecule that contain sequences that function as a template during RNA editing.
Industry:Biotechnology
An RNA molecule that has been synthesized from a specific DNA template. In eukaryotes, the primary transcript produced by RNA polymerase must often be processed or modified in order to form the mature, functional mRNA, rRNA or tRNA.
Industry:Biotechnology
An RNA or single-stranded DNA molecule upon which a complementary nucleotide strand is synthesized. A pattern or mould. DNA stores coded information and acts as a model or template from which information is copied into complementary strands of DNA or transcribed into mRNA.
Industry:Biotechnology
An RNA sequence that is complementary to all or part of a functional mRNA molecule, to which it binds, blocking its translation.
Industry:Biotechnology
An undifferentiated active somatic cell that undergoes division and gives rise to other stem cells or to cells that differentiate to form specialized cells.
Industry:Biotechnology
An undifferentiated cell (or nucleus), such as a blastomere, that, when isolated or suitably transplanted, can develop into a complete embryo.
