Outline of Final Research Achievements |
By in vitro selection using aminophosphonic acid 3, 5-dinitrobenzyl and tRNA analog-fused RNA library, we successfully identified a novel ribozyme that catalyzes tRNA-aminophosphonylation. By using aminophosphnyl-tRNA prepared by the identified ribozyme, we also successfully demonstrated that existing wild-type ribosome could not catalyze phosphono-peptide bond formation, P-N bond formation.
