Example Sentences:

  • (1) When introduced into Nicotiana tabacum by leaf disk transformation via Agrobacterium tumefaciens, high levels of stable coat protein were detected which were identical in molecular weight to that of HelVS coat protein and constituted approximately 0.1-0.5% of the total extracted protein.
