Small ribozymes such as the hairpin, hammerhead, VS, glm S, and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) are self-cleaving RNAs that are typically characterized by kinetics and structural methods. Working with these RNAs requires attention to numerous experimental details. In this chapter we focus on four different experimental aspects of ribozyme studies: preparing the RNA, mapping its structure with reverse transcription and end-labeled techniques, solvent isotope experiments, and co-transcriptional cleavage assays. Although the focus of these methods is the HDV ribozyme, the methods should be applicable to other ribozymes.
