The sequence of the 3'-terminal 91 nucleotides of alfalfa mosaic virus RNA 4, the messenger for the viral coat protein, has been elucidated. A fragment containing the 3' terminus of the RNA was obtained by mild digestion with RNase T1. The primary structure of the fragment was deduced by labeling it in vitro at its 5' terminus and application of RNA sequencing techniques. The sequence is completely extracistronic and is believed to contain the binding sites for the viral coat protein and replicase.

Rainbow trout cell cultures have been exposed to 32P-labelled inorganic phosphate and the labelled RNA has been isolated. The 5S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (5S rRNA) was purified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, then digested with RNase T1 or pancreatic RNase. The products of complete digestion were separated and their sequences determined. These analyses have allowed a sequence to be proposed which differs in eight positions from that of mammalian 5S rRNAs.

In the presence of high concentrations of the monovalent salts, sodium chloride and potassium fluoride, disulfide-reduced RNase T1 having four cysteinyl residues intact regenerates the spectral properties characteristic of native RNase T1, e.e., the fluorescence spectrum of the aromatic side chains and the ultraviolet circular dichroism spectrum. The folding of the polypeptide chain proceeded without formation of disulfide bonds to yield an enzymatically active species having an activity toward RNA equivalent to 25% of that of the native enzyme at the same salt concentration of 2 m. Unfolding of RNase T1 by a denaturant, urea, was suppressed in the presence of salts, and the salt-induced chain folding was observed spectroscopically even in 6.9 m urea solution. The salts also induced the chain folding of disulfide reduced and modified (carboxymethylated or carboxamidomethylated) RNase T1 into the native conformation, as indicated by its spectroscopic properties, but did not restore the enzymatic activity.

The mRNA for the lipoprotein of the Escherichia coli outer membrane has been purified to 85% homogeneity. The purification procedure involved phenol extraction, NaCl extraction, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and Sephadex G-200, and reversed-phase column chromatography on RPC-5. The purity of the final product was estimated to be 85% by analysis of the ribonuclease T1 fingerprint of the mRNA. The purified mRNA was able to direct the synthesis of cross-reactive material with antilipoprotein serum in both the E. coli and the wheat germ cell-free protein-synthesizing systems. The size of the mRNA was determined to be 8.2 S from its mobility in polyacrylamide--agrose gels. During the purification, two other RNA species, similar in size to the lipoprotein mRNA, were also isolated. Their sizes were determined to be 8.7 and 9.1 S. They both were inactive in an E. coli cell-free protein-synthesizing system.

The pseudouridylation of ribosomal RNA of Saccharomyces carlsbergensis was investigated with respect to its timing during the maturation of rRNA and its sequence specificity. Analysis of 37-S RNA, the common precursor to 17-S, 5.8-S and 26-S rRNA and most probably the primary ribosomal transcript, shows that this RNA molecule contains already most if not all of the 36-37 pseudouridine residues found in the mature rRNAs. Thus pseudouridylation is, like 2'-0-ribosemethylation, an early event in the maturation of rRNA, taking place immediately after, or even during, transcription. The data presented show that the non-conserved sequences of 37-S precursor rRNA contain very few pseudouridine residues if any. The pseudouridine residues within the rRNA sequences are apparently clustered to a certain degree as can inferred from the occurrence of a single oligonucleotide containing 3 pseudouridines, which was obtained by digestion of 26-S rRNA with ribonuclease T1.

The nucleotide sequence of formylmethionine tRNA from an extreme thermophile, Thermus thermophilus HB8, was determined by a combination of classical methods using unlabeled samples to determine the sequences of the oligonucleotides of RNase T1 and RNase A digests and a rapid sequencing gel technique using 5'-32P labeled samples to determine overlapping sequences. Formylmethionine tRNA from T. thermophilus is composed of two species, tRNAf1Met and tRNAf2Met. Their nucleotide sequences are almost identical, and are also almost identical with that of E. coli tRNAfMet, except for slight modifications and replacements. Both species have modifications at three points which do not exist in E. coli tRNAfMet: 2'-O-methylation at G19, N-1-methylation at A59 and 2-thiolation at T55. Moreover U51 in E. coli tRNAfMet is replaced by C51 in both species, so that a G-C pair is formed between this C51 and G65. tRNAf2Met has a reversed G-C pair at positions 52 and 64 compared with those in tRNAf1Met and E. coli tRNAfMet. Other regions are mostly the same as those in all prokaryotic initiator tRNAs so far reported. The thermostability of these thermophile initiator tRNAs is discussed in relation to their unique modifications.

The secondary structure of the terminated trp leader transcript from Escherichia coli was analyzed by RNase T1 partial digestion. Base-paired regions were recovered by nondenaturing gel electrophoresis and identified by denaturing gel electrophoresis and fingerprinting. The tandem tryptophan codons in the leader peptide coding region were found to be base paired with a more distal region of the transcript. This and other secondary structures that the trp leader RNA can form help explain the physiological response of the operon as well as the behavior of regulatory mutants.

Incubation of Neurospora crassa conidia with ribonuclease (RNase) A reduces transport of L-phenylalanine by those cells. Under similar conditions, oxidized RNase A, RNase T1, and RNase T2 do not have this effect. Incubation of conidia with active RNase covalently attached to polyacrylamide beads reduces L-phenylalanine transport. This indicates that the site of enzymatic action is at the cell surface. At the lower concentration of enzyme used in this study, incubation with RNase A reduces transport of L-phenylalanine by the general (G) amino acid permease. Increasing the enzyme concentration results in reduction of transport by the neutral aromatic (N)-specific permease. The increased transport activity that accompanies onset of conidial germination is also sensitive to incubation with RNase A. Application of the enzyme to actively transporting cells does not release amino acid transported prior to enzyme addition. Cells cultured on media supplemented with [2-14C] uridine release isotopic activity after RNase A incubation. Analogous treatments with Pronase, RNase T1, RNase T2, or deoxyribonuclease I do not release isotope activity. Pronase treatment does reduce L-phenylalanine transport. Incubation of conidia with RNase A also inhibits germination of those conidia.

Mitochondrial RNA (mtRNA) was synthesized from purine and pyrimidine nucleosides in coupling with oxidative phosphorylation using isolated mitochondria. The in vivo synthesized mtRNA was adenine-uracil rich and sedimented at about 20 S by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. A major part of the newly synthesized mtRNA was shown to be poly (A)-containing RNA by the resistance to the digestion with pancreatic RNase and RNase T1 and the affinity to poly (U)-Sepharose columns or Millipore filters.

Dinucleoside diphosphates of the general type pGpN have been prepared enzymatically using ribonuclease N1. Alkylated uridines or cytidines, which are products of carcinogens acting on nucleic acids, were tested in dinucleoside diphosphates for their ability to stimulate the binding of Ala- or Val-tRNA to ribosomes. O2-Ethyl C and 3-methyl C functioned as U, but not as C. In contrast, 3-methyl U behaved as C, but not as U. Both O2 and O4-ethyl U could be recognized as C or U, although binding in both cases was weak. Thus, modifications of the hydrogen-bonding sites of U or C causes miscoding and could be considered to represent mutagenic reactions.
