Design of a Highly Reactive HDV Ribozyme Sequence Uncovers Facilitation of RNA Folding by Alternative Pairings and Physiological Ionic Strength

The hepatitis delta virus (HDV) ribozyme is a self-cleaving RNA that resides in the HDV genome and regulates its replication. The native fold of the ribozyme is complex, having two pseudoknots. Earlier work implicated four non-native pairings in slowing pseudoknot formation: Alt 1, Alt 2, Alt 3, and...
