Ontology Term : Pfam:PF01348 Type II intron maturase EMBL-EBI

Description  Group II introns use intron-encoded reverse transcriptase, maturase and DNA endonuclease activities for site-specific insertion into DNA [2]. Although this type of intron is self splicing in vitro they require a maturase protein for splicing in vivo. It has been shown that a specific region of the aI2 intron is needed for the maturase function [1]. This region was found to be conserved in group II introns and called domain X [3].
