Two adenines with pK(a) values close to neutral pH were identified in the catalytic triad and the bulge. Protonation of the adenine opposite to the catalytic triad is stabilized within a G(syn)-AH(+) (anti) base pair. The pH-dependent anti-to-syn flipping of this G in the catalytic triad modulates the known interaction with the linker region between domains 2 and 3 (J23) and simultaneously the binding of the catalytic Mg(2+) ion to its backbone. Hence, this here identified shifted pK(a) value controls the conformational change between the two steps of splicing.
