Nuclear Group I introns with homing endonuclease genes in Acanthamoeba genotype T4.

European journal of protistology - 1 Oct 2018

Corsaro Daniele, Venditti Danielle

Abstract excerpt

Various strains belonging to three Acanthamoeba species, A. griffini (genotype T3), A. lenticulata (T5), and A. jacobsi (T15), have group I introns in their 18S rRNA genes. Group I introns are self-splicing ribozymes that can spread among host lineages either through an intron-encoded endonuclease at the DNA level, or by reverse splicing during the RNA cycle. In Acanthamoeba, introns belong to the subclass IC1,...
