Abstract

The artificial expression of antisense RNA is commonly used in eucaryotes, especially higher plants, to reduce the level of specific proteins (van der Krol et al. 1988 Nature 333:866-869). Here we report the use of antisense RNA to inhibit the translation of a subunit of the mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, the respiratory complex I in N. crassa
