A simple and precise method was developed for the separation of nucleosides including modified nucleosides and oligonucleotides. Nineteen kinds of nucleosides were completely separated by HPLC using an ODS column (TSK-gel ODS 80TM) and aqueous mobile phases. The RNA molecule was digested by base restrictive RNase (RNase A, RNase T1) and the digests were separated chromatographically into each oligonucleotide. The nucleoside composition of an oligonucleotide was then determined by this analytical system. It is thus possible to fit the oligonucleotide in the original RNA molecule by using modified bases as markers. The reaction site of quinacrine mustard for tRNA(Phe) (from yeast) could be determined by this analytical system.

The recombinant enzyme binase II was isolated from the culture liquid of Bacillus subtilis 3922 transformed with the pJF28 plasmid bearing the birB gene. The procedure of the enzyme purification included precipitation by polyethylene glycol with subsequent chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, heparin-Sepharose, and Toyopearl TSK-gel. The enzyme was purified 142-fold yielding a preparation with specific activity 1633 U/mg. The molecular weight of binase II is 30 kD. The enzyme is activated by Mg2+ and virtually completely inhibited by EDTA. The pH optimum for the reaction of RNA hydrolysis is 8.5. The properties of the enzyme are close to those of RNase Bsn from B. subtilis. The character of cleaving of synthetic single- and double-stranded polyribonucleotides by binase II suggests that the enzyme binds the substrate in the helix conformation, and its catalytic mechanism is close to that of RNase VI from cobra venom.
