	abstract = {The 35 S percursor of the Neurospora mitochondrial large rRNA contains a 2.3-kilobase intron located towards its 3{\textquoteright} end. The intron RNA is excised in a single cleavage-ligation reaction and is detectable in mitochondria by Northern hybridization experiments. We now show (i) that the free intron RNA is a full-length linear molecule, and (ii) that it, like the Tetrahymena nuclear rRNA intron, contains an extra, noncoded guanosine residue at its 5{\textquoteright} end. The latter finding suggests that the Neurospora mitochondrial large rRNA may be spliced via a phosphoester transfer mechanism similar to that proposed for the "self-splicing" Tetrahymena intron.},
