Identification of HDV-like theta ribozymes involved in tRNA-based recoding of gut bacteriophages
Abstract Trillions of microorganisms, collectively known as the microbiome, inhabit our bodies with the gut microbiome being of particular interest in biomedical research. Bacteriophages, the dominant virome constituents, can utilize suppressor tRNAs to switch to alternative genetic codes (e.g., the...
