초록

표적 RNA 의 구조가 Tetrahymena thermophila 의 group I intron 에 의한 trans-splicing 반응에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 강력한 stem-loop 형태의 안정된 구조를 갖고 있는 표적 RNA mapping 분석 방법을 이용한 결과 in vitro 뿐만 아니라 in vivo 에서도 stem 부위의 염기들에 반해 loop 부위의 염기들이 ribozyme 에 의해 잘 인지되었으며 이러한 결과는 그러한 부위들을 인지할 수 있는 ribozyme 들에 의한 trans-cleavage 그리고 trans-splicing 반응을 수행함으로써 검증하였다. 또한 이러한 trans-splicing 반응은 정확하게 일어남을 반응 산물의 염기서열 결정을 통해 확인하였다. 따라서 표적 RNA 의 구조가 in vitro 및 in vivo 에서의 ribozyme 활성에 매우 중요한 요인임을 확인하였다.

Effects of subsh-ate RNA configuration on the tians-splicing reactcon by group I intron ribozyme of Tetralzynzena thern\ulcornerophila were analyzed with substrate RNAs which have been generated to have very stable structures with stem-loop. RNAinapping strategy was perfo~med in vivo as well as in virro to search the mosl accessible siles to the ~irms-splicing ribozymes in the substrate RNAs. Sequences present in the loop of the target RNAs have shown to be well recognized by and reacted with group I inlron ribozymes while sequences present in the stein do not. Thesc results were confirmed with the experiments of trans-cleavage and rmnssplicing reactmn with ihe specific ribozyines recognizing those sequences. Moreover, sequence analysis of the trans-splicing products have shown that irons-splicing reaction can proceed with high fidelity. In conclusion, the secondary structure of substrate RNAs is one of the most important factors to detemine the ribozyme activity.
