New Deoxyribozymes for the Native Ligation of RNA

Deoxyribozymes (DNAzymes) are small, synthetic, single-stranded DNAs capable of catalyzing chemical reactions, including RNA ligation. Herein, we report a novel class of RNA ligase deoxyribozymes that utilize 5′-adenylated RNA (5′-AppRNA) as the donor substrate, mimicking the activated intermediates...
