A rare group I intron in a cyanobacterial ribonucleotide reductase gene has been characterized. It contains a mobile insertion sequence element not required for RNA splicing. Ribonucleotide reductase genes were found to be hot spots for all three types of self-splicing intervening sequences, including group I and II introns and inteins.
已对蓝藻核糖核苷酸还原酶基因中一个罕见的I组内含子进行了表征。它包含一个RNA剪接不需要的移动插入序列元件。核糖核苷酸还原酶基因被发现是所有三种类型的自我剪接间隔序列的热点,包括I组和II组内含子以及内含肽。
