Abstract excerpt
By truncating helix II to two base pairs in a hammerhead ribozyme having long flanking sequences (greater than 30 bases), the rate of cleavage in 1 mM magnesium can be increased roughly 100-fold. Replacing most of the nucleotides in a typical stem-loop II with 1-4 randomized nucleotides gave an R...
