Spiegelzymes: sequence specific hydrolysis of L-RNA with mirror image hammerhead ribozymes and DNAzymes.

In this manuscript we describe for the first time mirror image catalytic nucleic acids (Spiegelzymes), which hydrolyze sequence specifically L-ribonucleic acid molecules. The mirror image nucleic acid ribozymes designed are based upon the known hammerhead ribozyme and DNAzyme structures that contain...
