Abstract excerpt
We have studied a very small ribozyme described earlier which requires the presence of soft metal ions like manganese or cadmium. It consists of only three uridines as ribozyme, cleaving the sequence 5'-GAAA-3' after the guanosine. We have set out to characterize the metal ion binding in this system by NMR spectroscopy and the impact of the ribose 2'-OH group of the cleavable nucleotide upon local structure. NMR...
