An RNA 28-mer (Rz28) was obtained as a major product by in vitro transcription with T7 RNA polymerase of a promoter-template DNA, which contains a sequence for the enzyme component, RNA 24-mer (Rz24), of a mutant hammerhead ribozyme system, Sequence analysis and enzymatic probing study showed that Rz28 has 4 extra nucleotides at the 3'-terminus, the sequence of which is complementary to that of the 5'-terminal sequence of Rz24, and forms a stable hairpin structure, NMR studies using a N-15-guanine-labeled derivative suggested that Rz28 contains tandem G:A pairs that are not of the side-by-side type which is found in the crystal structure of hammerhead ribozyme complexes, Comparison of the HMQC spectra of N-15-guanine-labeled Rz28 and Rz24 suggested that Rz24 also contains the same type of tandem G:A pairs.
