Requirements of a group I intron for reactions at the 3' splice site.
Journal of molecular biology - 5 Feb 1993
van der Horst G, Inoue T
Abstract excerpt
Structural elements of the Tetrahymena group I intron have been implicated in directing the exon-ligation transesterification reaction (the second step of self-splicing) to the correct 3' splice site. The 3' splice site also serves as the reaction site in a distinct transesterification reaction known as G-exchange and in a specific hydrolysis reaction. The dependence of the reactions on the internal guide...
