	***'''[[User:Benjamin Gilman\|Benjamin Gilman]] 12:30, 14 February 2013 (EST)''': I said that I thought RNase P was discovered before the tetrahymena group I intron, but I think it took a little while to figure out that the RNA portion of it was responsible for catalysis. The best place to look wouldn't be the RNA world, it would be Sidney Altman's original papers about it, or any of the many reviews he's written since. I'd bet that Jeff owns a copy of the RNA world though if you want to check it out. The life science library also has it.		***'''[[User:Benjamin Gilman\|Benjamin Gilman]] 12:30, 14 February 2013 (EST)''': I said that I thought RNase P was discovered before the tetrahymena group I intron, but I think it took a little while to figure out that the RNA portion of it was responsible for catalysis.

		+	**'''[[User:Jeffrey E. Barrick\|Jeffrey E. Barrick]] 12:12, 17 February 2013 (EST)''':Yes. That 2'OH gives RNA more structural and catalytic possibilities. It's good for positioning metal ions and can also participate in general acid-base catalysis (which is what happens when RNA cleaves itself). Still, there are good reasons for wanting to use modified bases with other functional groups to improve in vitro selection.

	***'''[[User:Benjamin Gilman\|Benjamin Gilman]] 12:30, 14 February 2013 (EST)''': I said that I thought RNase P was discovered before the tetrahymena group I intron, but I think it took a little while to figure out that the RNA portion of it was responsible for catalysis. The best place to look wouldn't be the RNA world, it would be Sidney Altman's original papers about it, or any of the many reviews he's written since. I'd bet that Jeff owns a copy of the RNA world though if you want to check it out. The life science library also has it.		***'''[[User:Benjamin Gilman\|Benjamin Gilman]] 12:30, 14 February 2013 (EST)''': I said that I thought RNase P was discovered before the tetrahymena group I intron, but I think it took a little while to figure out that the RNA portion of it was responsible for catalysis.

Strangely, RNase P occurs nowhere in the current book. Older chapters, including ones that focused on self-splicing introns seem to have been replaced by newer topics.

	**'''[[User:Evan J WeaverIEvan Weaver]] 21:52, 15 February 2013 (CST)''': The 2' hydroxyl group can react with the phosphate group in the RNA backbone to cleave the RNA.

		+	**'''[[User:Jeffrey E. Barrick\|Jeffrey E. Barrick]] 12:12, 17 February 2013 (EST)''':Yes. That 2'OH gives RNA more structural and catalytic possibilities. It's good for positioning metal ions and can also participate in general acid-base catalysis (which is what happens when RNA cleaves itself). Still, there are good reasons for wanting to use modified bases with other functional groups to improve in vitro selection.
