Abstract excerpt
Group II introns are noncoding sequences that interrupt genes, and that must be removed or spliced-out at the RNA level during gene expression. Following the transcription of interrupted genes, group II introns self-splice while concurrently ligating their flanking exons to generate mature mRNAs ready for translation. Ll.LtrB, the model group II intron from the gram-positive bacterium Lactococcus lactis,...
