The target is cleaved 3' to the last nucleotide of the intron binding site (IBS)1, one of three regions that form base pairs with the intron's exon binding sites (EBS)1-3. We solved the NMR solution structure of the d3'-hairpin of the Sc.ai5gamma intron containing EBS1 in its 11 nt loop in complex with the dIBS1 DNA 7mer and compare it to the analogous RNA.RNA contact. The EBS1.dIBS1 helix is slightly flexible and non-symmetric. NMR data reveal two major-groove binding sites for divalent metal ions at the EBS1.dIBS1 helix and Surface Plasmon Resonance experiments show that low concentrations of Mg2+ considerably enhance the affinity of dIBS1 for EBS1. Our results indicate that identification of both RNA and DNA IBS1 targets, presentation of the scissile bond, and stabilization of the structure by metal ions are governed by the overall structure of EBS1.dIBS1 and the surrounding loop nucleotides but are irrespective of different EBS1.(d)IBS1 geometries and interstrand affinities.
