The conditional protein splicing of alpha-sarcin: a model for inducible assembly of protein toxins in vivo.

Conditional protein splicing (CPS) is an intein-mediated post-translational modification. Inteins are intervening protein elements that autocatalytically excise themselves from precursor proteins to ligate flanking protein sequences, called exteins, with a native peptide bond. Artificially split int...
