Intron Homing

View through CrossRef
Abstract Introns belonging to the group I or group II self‐splicing types are mobile elements that can move into unoccupied sites in homologous genes (homing), or into new genomic sites (transposition). This mobility is mediated by intron‐encoded proteins: site‐specific endonucleases in the case of group I introns and chimaeric proteins containing reverse transcriptase activity for group II introns.
