Hammerhead ribozyme
Introduction
Hammerhead ribozyme was first found in the genome of viruses and viroids. It involved in the processing of RNA transcripts based on rolling-circle replication. The tandem copy of RNA sequence will be generated in the roll ring replication, and the self-cleaving activity of ribozyme can ensure the generation of RNA copy of unit length.[1]
The secondary structure of hammerhead ribozyme resembles a hammer. According to different open helix tips, hammerhead ribozymes can be divided into three types: TypeⅠ, Type II and Type III. The catalytic center of ribozyme consists of 15 highly conserved bases surrounded by three helixs(HelixⅠ, Helix II and Helix III). The long-range interaction between HelixⅠ and Helix II can help stabilize the conformation of the catalytic center of the enzyme and improve the catalytic efficiency (Figure 1).[2]
