Based on these studies, we designed a series of Group I aptazymes in which the anti-theophylline aptamer was substituted for either a portion of P6 or P5 (Figure 1).
In particular, a series of nested deletions of the P6 stem-loop have been shown to partially or completely compromise ribozyme activity [ 15 ] . More importantly, either magnesium or the tyrosyl tRNA synthetase from Neurospora mitochondria (CYT18) can suppress many of these defects [ 16 17 ] . Previous studies with other introns have also revealed that deletion of the P5 stem-loop can modulate ribozyme activity [ 18 19 ] . We hypothesized that sites where deletions modulated ribozyme activity might also prove to be sites where aptamer conformational changes would modulate ribozyme activity.
, 7-methyltheophylline); the anti-theophylline aptamer is known to discriminate between caffeine and theophylline by a factor of 10,000-fold [ 10 ] . No effector-dependent growth differences were observed with cultures containing
The anti-theophylline aptamer was attached at the same point as had previously proven successful in the design of theophylline-dependent cleavases and ligases [ 13 14 ] .
In order to examine effector-specificity in vivo , a new series of Group I aptazymes was constructed in which the anti-theophylline aptamer was mutated to bind 3-methylxanthine (3MeX2P6) [ 34 ] . These variants proved to be responsive to 3-methylxanthine both in vitro and in vivo (Figure 6a).
