| Comment: | Delta ribozyme is a catalytic self-cleaving structure, folded in both genomic and antigenomic RNAs of hepatitis delta virus. For review, see e.g.[1]. For the compilation of HDV sequences, see [2]. The sequence is shown for "Italy" variant, the numbering starts downstream of the cleavage site (positions 901/900) at nucleotide 900, thus the 3'-proximal nucleotide 89 corresponds to position 812 in the genomic RNA. |
