DNA target site recognition by the Ll.LtrB group II intron RNP

Mobile group II introns are retroelements that site-specifically insert into DNA target sequences. The group II intron mobility pathway is mediated by a ribonucleoprotein particle (RNP) composed of excised intron RNA and an intron-encoded protein (IEP). The intron lariat inserts at a specific DNA ta...
