Chemical and enzymatic probing of effector-mediated changes in the conformation of a maxizyme

The protein encoded by chimeric BCR-ABL mRNA causes chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). We showed previously that a novel allosterically controllable ribozyme, of the type known as a maxizyme, can cleave this mRNA, with high specificity and high-level activity in vivo. We designed the maxizyme in su...
