Abstract excerpt

Group II introns, which are classed together on the basis of a conserved secondary structure, are found in organellar genes of lower eukaryotes and plants. Like introns in nuclear pre-messenger RNA, they are excised by a two-step splicing reaction to generate branched circular RNAs, the so-called...
