Abstract excerpt
Photocrosslinking has identified the joiner between domains 2 and 3 [J(23)] as folding near domain 5 (D5), a highly conserved helical substructure of group II introns required for both splicing reactions. D5 RNAs labeled with the photocrosslinker 4-thiouridine (4sU) reacted with highly conserved nucleotides G588 and A589 in J(23) of various intron acceptor transcripts. These conjugates retained some ribozyme...
