Branched Intermediate Formation Is the Slowest Step in the Protein Splicing Reaction of the Ala1 KlbA Intein from Methanococcus jannaschii

[Image: see text] We report the first detailed investigation of the kinetics of protein splicing by the Methanococcus jannaschii KlbA (Mja KlbA) intein. This intein has an N-terminal Ala in place of the nucleophilic Cys or Ser residue that normally initiates splicing but nevertheless splices efficie...
