Abstract excerpt
An RNA ligase previously detected in extracts of Escherichia coli is capable of joining Saccharomyces cerevisiae tRNA splicing intermediates in the absence of ATP to form a 2'-5' phosphodiester linkage (Greer, C., Javor, B., and Abelson, J. (1983) Cell 33, 899-906). This enzyme specifically ligates tRNA half-molecules containing nucleoside base modifications and shows a preference among different tRNA species. In...
