摘要: As a first step to investigate the functional activity of gypsy virus-like particles (VLPs) we explored possibility preservation its VLP in extracellular form. The preparations containing from Drosophila melanogaster and D. virilis were obtained. Full-length polyA+ RNA RNA-DNA complexes observed both preparations. polypeptides with some specificity nucleic acids identified obtained These data accompanied by morphological characteristics samples testify presence intact cultured media cultivated cells.
