  • Kinetic analysis of these molecules indicates that the high fidelity of this protein-splicing reaction results from the penultimate step in the process (intein-succinimide formation) being rate-limiting.

  • NMR experiments indicate that formation of the branched intermediate affects the local structure around the amide bond that is cleaved during succinimide formation.
