Abstract

Group I introns are small RNAs (250-500 nt) capable of catalyzing their own splicing from the precursor RNA. They are widely distributed across the tree of life and have intricate relationships with their host genomes. In this work, we review its basic structure, self-splicing and its mechanisms of gene mobility. As they are widely found in unicellular eukaryotes, especially fungi, we gathered information regarding their possible impact on the physiology of fungal cells and the possible application of these introns in medical mycology.

I 组内含子：结构、剪接及其在医学真菌学中的应用。

I 组内含子是一种小型 RNA（250-500 nt），能够催化自身与前体 RNA 的剪接。它们广泛分布于生命树中，与其宿主基因组有着错综复杂的关系。在这项工作中，我们将回顾其基本结构、自我剪接及其基因移动机制。由于它们广泛存在于单细胞真核生物，尤其是真菌中，我们收集了有关它们对真菌细胞生理可能产生的影响以及这些内含子在医学真菌学中可能应用的信息。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
