Inteins are internal protein components that self-excise from their web host

Inteins are internal protein components that self-excise from their web host proteins and catalyze ligation of the flanking sequences (exteins) with a peptide relationship. acid residues shown no detectable sequence similarity to any known ATPase subunits. Instead, the inner sequence exhibits similarity to an endonuclease encoded by the gene. The in-body insertion was discovered to… Continue reading Inteins are internal protein components that self-excise from their web host
