The Kiss Switch Brings Inactive R3C Ligase Ribozyme Back to Life

R3C ligase ribozyme catalyzes the nucleophilic attack by a 3′-hydroxyl on a 5′-α-phosphorus of triphosphates to form a 3′-5′-phosphodiester bond. In the present study, although the truncation of R3C ribozyme was accompanied by a large reduction in ligation activity (decrease by two orders of magnitu...
