Ribozymes: the hammerhead swings into action

Current Biology : CB
J A Doudna

Abstract

A new crystal structure of a modified hammerhead ribozyme reveals an intermediate conformation that may explain discrepancies between previous structures and the required orientation of the labile bond in the ribozyme's active site.
