ABA is synthesized in almost all cells that contain chloroplasts

or amyloplasts and has been detected in every major organ and tissue. ABA is a 15-carbon terpenoid, or sesquiterpenoid, which is synthesized in plants by an indirect pathway via 40-carbon carotenoid intermediates

The time of sedimentation (in seconds) for a spherical particle is (Please see the picture below)
where t is the sedimentation time, is the viscosity of medium, R hydro is the
hydrodynamic radius of the particle, r b is the radial distance from the centre of rotation
to bottom of tube, r t is the radial distance from the centre of rotation to liquid meniscus,
ρ is the density of the particle, m is the density of the medium and is the angular velocity
of the rotor.

Sometimes the S1 nuclease will not digest the single stranded regions completely, so the transcript appears to be a little longer than it really is, But another method, called primer extension, can tell the 5’-end (but not the 3’-end) to the exact nucleotide

Light absorption by rhodopsin→activation of a cGMP PDE → hydrolyzes cGMP to 5′-GMP→ cGMP levels  drop →channel close →membrane hyperpolarization→reduction in NT release→transmitted to brain
