[New mechanism for regulation of genetic expression].
DNA sequence studies of mutated and wild type alleles of an intron in the mosaic mitochondrial gene for cytochrome b have revealed the possible existence of a protein coded in the intron and involved in RNA splicing. This protein would be endowed with properties of intrinsic autotomy of its own messenger RNA.
