The 16S ribosomal RNA of the blue green alga Anacystis nidulans has been characterized in terms of the oligomers generated by digestion with T1 ribonuclease. A. nidulans by this criterion is definitely a procaryote; being no more distant from Bacilli or Enterics than the latter two are from one another. A. nidulans appears to be somewhat more closely related to the Bacilli than to the Enterics.

Two modifications in the Sanger two dimensional electrophoretic procedure for RNA analysis are reported. One increases resolution on the primary fingerprint to the point that digests of large RNAs, of the size 1500-3000 nucleotides yield well resolved fingerprint patterns. The other is a novel endonucleolytic procedure that proves useful in determining sequences of the large oligonucleotides produced by T1 ribonuclease. These modifications have been used in determining the catalogs of oligomers produced by T1 ribonuclease digestion of 16S rRNAs from three related organisms, Bacillus subtilis, B.pumilus and B.stearothermophilus. The possible effects of adaptation to a thermophilic niche on ribosomal RNA primary structure and the phylogenetic relatedness of the two mesophilic Bacilli are discussed.

Disulphide-rich proteins of widely differing functions were aligned with the aid of their half-cystinyl residues. This led to the grouping of ribonuclease, phospholipase A, lysozyme, snake venom toxins, bee and scorpion venom peptides, and the plant proteins potatoe carboxypeptidase inhibitor, ragweed pollen allergen, mistletoe toxins and pineapple sulfhydryl protease inhibitor into one super-family of proteins. Very few deletions/insertions were needed to effect alignment and probabilities were calculated for random occurrence of the matches that were found.

In terms of the mechanical model of molecules, a calculation has been carried out of possible positions and binding energies of 1-methyl uracyl in the contact region of the ribonuclease S active site. In the most preferential orientation, 1-methyl uracyl forms hydrogen bonds C(2)=O(uracyl)...H-N(Thr-45), N-H...Ogamma (Thr-45), C(4)=O... ...H-Ogamma (Ser-123). The base position found (atom coordinates are given) is in complete qualitative agreement with the position of the uracyl in UpcA bound to ribonuclease S as revealed by X-ray analysis. The influence studied of methyl substitution in positions 3 and 5 of the pyrimidine cycle on the base orientation within the protein field. It has been shown that the formation of hydrogen bonds with Thr-45 and Ser-123 is not prerequisite for productive fixation of the phosphoribosyl nucleotide moiety in the catalytic region of the enzyme active site.

The quantitative changes of double-stranded RNA components of nuclear ribonucleo-protein particles containing pre-mRNA was investigated in the course of incubation of particles at 37 degrees C. The incubation of purified nuclear particles revealed the fragmentation of long double-stranded RNA sequences into shorter stretches. The presence of nuclear sap in the incubation mixture resulted in degradation of the double-stranded RNAs into acid soluble products. Autodegradation and/or ribonuclease treatment of nuclear RNP particles is accompanied by quantitative changes in the minor protein constituents of informofer.

After the annealing of pre-mRNA at high Cot values, up to 20% of the material becomes resistant to the action of ribonuclease. This has been attributed to the presence of self-complementary sequences (scRNA) in the pre-mRNA. The most important properties of scRNA, which was isolated in preparative amounts, have been studied. The approximate dimensions of the complementary segments are 45-50 nucleotides. Hybridization experiments have shown that scRNA is transcribed from repeated segments of the genome. It may be postulated that the rapidly hybridizing pre-mRNA fraction consists mainly of self-complementary sequences.

Variation of ribonuclease S structure is analysed with the potential energy being minimized by a computer. The function of potential energy contains the potentials of bond and angle distortions, torsional and non-valent interactions. It is shown that after 100 iterations the potential energy is decreased from the value of 6500 kcal/mole to--1012 kcal/mole, 92% of complete change of energy fitting the first ten iterations. The root mean square deviation (r. ms. d.) of final structure from the initial one is 0.232 A (0.206 A for the backbone and 0.257 A for side groups). The forbidden non-valent contacts are completely removed after minimization. R. ms. d. of the equilibrium value is decreased from 0.097 to 0.006 A for bond lengths; from 7.660 to 3.65 degrees for valence an-les and from 9.44 to 6.95 degrees for rotation angles around the peptide bonds. Distribution of tensions along the protein chain after minimization is considerably changed, the tensions decreasing in average by 100 times.

Yersinia pestis has been characterized in terms of fingerprints of digests (pancreatic and/or T1 ribonuclease) of its 16S and 5S ribosomal RNAs. These show clearly that Y. pestis is a member of the Enterobacteriaceae and suggest that within the Family it is most closely related to Serratia and/or Proteus.

Nuclei of MPC 11 mouse myeloma cells contain several species of small RNAs related to those found in other mammalian cells. These include U1 RNA, about 190 nucleotides in length and U2 RNA, about 170 nucleotides long. The 5'-termini of 32P-labelled U1 and U2 RNAs have been investigated by a fingerprinting technique involving digestion with T2-ribonuclease. The RNAs were found to have modified 5'-terminal structures of the form m3G(5')ppp (5')AmpUmpAp for U1 RNA and m3G(5')ppp(5')AmpUmpCmpCp for U2 RNA, where m3G is N2, N27-trimethyl guanosine and Am and Um are 2'-O-methyl nucleosides. These 5'-terminal sequences are the same as those proposed for rat hepatoma U1 and U2 RNAs (Ro-Choi et al., Fed. Proc. 33, 1548, 1974) but with triphosphate rather than diphosphate links.

The theory of melting of DNA complexes with extended ligands (ties) is considered. Influence of ties interacting electorally with certain DNA regions and influence of extender ties, interacting unelectorally on the helix coil transition parameters is compared. It has been shown that both types of ties cause, coincided qualitatively, but differed quantatively, shifts of melting temperature and change of the melting range width of DNA. Comparison of theory with experiment in the case of DNA complexes with ribonuclease is given.
