ZmnMAT1, a nuclear-encoded type I maturase, is required for the splicing of mitochondrial Nad1 intron 1 and Nad4 intron 2
Maturases can specifically bind to intron-containing pre-RNAs, folding them into catalytic structures that facilitate intron splicing in vivo. Plants possess four nuclear-encoded maturase-related factors (nMAT1-nMAT4) and some maturases have been shown to involve in the splicing of different mitocho...
