Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis RdRp from the bacteriophage phi6 can be used to generate dsRNA for RNA interference, RNAi, applications, resulting in in vivo gene silencing. RNA molecules that are radioactively or fluorescently labeled using poly(A) polymerase can be used as probes in a wide variety of applications Cystovirus phi6
