| '''HEPATITIS DELTA VIRUS RIBOZYME'''<br />
| |
| | |
| ==Overview==
| |
| The self-cleaving ribozyme of the hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is the only, catalytic RNA known to be required for the viability of a human pathogen., We obtained crystals of a 72-nucleotide, self-cleaved form of the genomic, HDV ribozyme that diffract X-rays to 2.3 A resolution by engineering the, RNA to bind a small, basic protein without affecting ribozyme activity., The co-crystal structure shows that the compact catalytic core comprises, five helical segments connected as an intricate nested double pseudoknot., The 5'-hydroxyl leaving group resulting from the self-scission reaction is, buried deep within an active-site cleft produced by juxtaposition of the, helices and five strand-crossovers, and is surrounded by biochemically, important backbone and base functional groups in a manner reminiscent of, protein enzymes.
