Popis: | Ribozyme constructs derived from group II intron RmInt1 of Sinorhizobium meliloti self-splice in vitro when incubated under permissive conditions, but exon ligation is unusually inefficient when the 5′ exon is truncated close to the IBS2 intron-binding site. One plausible explanation for this observation is the presence of an alternative intron–exon pairing between an intron segment that overlaps with the EBS2 exon-binding site and a 5′ exon site located just distal of IBS2 relative to the splice junction. Strikingly, the existence of this pairing is supported by comparative sequence analysis of introns related to RmInt1. |
