A protein chaperone can stabilize the intein‐containing precursor to indirectly promote protein splicing

Abstract In tervening pro teins (inteins) interrupt host protein sequences and are removed by a self‐mediated protein splicing reaction. Inteins are abundant in the microbial world and are often found within essential genes involved in DNA replication, recombination, and repair....
