Abstract excerpt
We have previously reported the development of a group I intron-derived ribozyme that can bind an exogenous RNA substrate and excise from that substrate an internal segment in vitro, which allows for sequence-specific modification of RNA molecules. In this report, the activity of this trans excision-splicing ribozyme in a cellular environment, specifically Escherichia coli, was investigated. The ribozyme was...
