Summary

Automatic Translation

We present a circular RT-PCR-based strategy by combining circular RT-PCR, quantitative RT-PCR, RNA 5' polyphosphatase-treatment, and Northern blot. This protocol includes a normalization step to minimize the influence of unstable 5' triphosphate, and it is suitable for discriminating and mapping the primary and processed transcripts stably accumulated in maize mitochondrion.
