Oligonucleotide facilitators may inhibit or activate a hammerhead ribozyme
Facilitators are oligonucleotides capable of affecting hammerhead ribozyme activity by interacting with the substrate at the termini of the ribozyme. Facilitator effects were determined in vitro using a system consisting of a ribozyme with 7 nucleotides ...

The three-dimensional architecture of the class I ligase ribozyme.
The class I ligase ribozyme catalyzes a Mg(++)-dependent RNA-ligation reaction that is chemically analogous to a single step of RNA polymerization. Indeed, this ribozyme constitutes the catalytic domain of an accurate and general RNA polymerase ribozyme.

Fast Cleavage Kinetics of a Natural Hammerhead Ribozyme
The hammerhead ribozyme is a small RNA motif that catalyzes the cleavage and ligation of RNA. The well-studied minimal hammerhead motif is inactive under physiological conditions and requires high Mg2+ concentrations for efficient cleavage.

Structural and Mechanistic Analysis of the Hovlinc Ribozyme
The hovlinc ribozyme is a recently discovered self-cleaving ribozyme in human ncRNA. We determined the structure of the active ribozyme to 4.1 Å using cryo-EM and the inactive ribozyme to 3.05 Å using X-ray crystallography. Both of these methods utilized
