Tsang J, Joyce G F
Abstract excerpt
In an earlier study, an in vitro evolution procedure was applied to a large population of variants of the Tetrahymena group I ribozyme to obtain individuals with a 10(5)-fold improved ability to cleave a target single-stranded DNA substrate under simulated physiological conditions. The evolved ribozymes also showed a twofold improvement, compared to the wild-type, in their ability to cleave a single-stranded RNA...
