The highly charged RNA molecules, with each phosphate carrying a single negative charge, cannot fold into well-defined architectures with tertiary interactions in the absence of ions. For ribozymes, divalent cations are known to be more efficient tha... Read More about Ion Condensation onto Ribozyme Is Site Specific and Fold Dependent.
