Revertent

As can be seen from the data for the control cultures, the variability in the numbers of revertent colonies observed in the absence of any specific mutant can be quite large.

The revertent virus may have escaped immune recognition in the animal in which it arose, but this virus was pathogenic in naive hosts.

Histochemical staining using antibodies to N, C and rod domain epitopes of dystrophin usually show complete absence of the protein, except for occasional revertent fibres (there are fibres which label normally with antibodies to dystrophin; their origin is not understood; Fig. 20.2F).

The greater the stress, the greater the tendency to revert to occult practices and an earlier stage of intellectual development, and these revertent ideologies thereby compete for acceptance.

Dear Rowland, it must be your business and mine to experimentalize on the utility and practicability of a revertent to this disgusting disorder which now vexes and threatens death to the state.

A revertent having restored levels of ornithine decarboxylase has been reported () and is probably a second site revertent which compensates for ts4.

In all cases where the original inactivating mutation disrupted a base pair in the putative secondary structure of the site, in the revertent, the opposing nucleotide in the base pair mutated to restore pairing.
