Figure 4. Implications for cleavage and recognition. a, Superposition of the structure of the scissile phosphate groups of the target nucleotide from the uncomplexed substrate SRL RNA^11 (red), the 3' splice site of a splicing endonuclease^19 (yellow) and the ground state forms of the lead-dependent22 (navy) and the hammerhead^20 (blue) ribozymes. b, Superposition of the structures of the two types of S-turn: one in the bound complex (blue) and another in the L11 -RNA complex38 (yellow).
