Abstract excerpt
The structural motif formed between a hammerhead ribozyme and its substrate consists of three RNA double helices in which the sequence 5' to the XUY is termed helix I and the sequence 3' to the XUY helix III. Two hammerhead ribozymes targeted to the tat gene of HIV-1SF2 were designed to study target specificity and the potential effect of helix I mismatch on ribozyme efficacy both in vitro and in vivo. The first...
