RNase T1 mimicking artificial ribonuclease
Recently, artificial ribonucleases (aRNases)--conjugates of oligodeoxyribonucleotides and peptide (LR)(4)-G-amide--were designed and assessed in terms of the activity and specificity of RNA cleavage. The conjugates were shown to cleave RNA at Pyr-A and G-X sequences. Variations of oligonucleotide length and sequence, peptide and linker structure led to the development of conjugates exhibiting G...
متن کاملPicosecond time-resolved fluorescence of ribonuclease T1. A pH and substrate analogue binding study.
The tryptophyl fluorescence of ribonuclease T1 decays monoexponentially at pH 5.5, tau = 4.04 ns but on increasing pH, a second short-lived component of 1.5 ns appears with a midpoint between pH 6.5 and 7.0. Both components have the same fluorescence spectrum. Acrylamide quenches both fluorescence components, and the short-lived component is quenched fivefold faster than the predominant long co...
متن کاملEffect of ribonuclease T1 on ribosomal subunits of rat liver.
The accessibility of 28S RNA within the ribosomal subunits to ribonuclease T1 was studied, in comparing results obtained after enzyme treatment of compact, K+ deficient 60S subunits and of EDTA-treated 60S subunits. RNA, extracted from the subunits, using a mixture of sodium dodecyl sulfate and phenol was analyzed on sucrose gradients. The RNA from active subunits was only degraded in high enzy...
متن کاملAre turns required for the folding of ribonuclease T1?
Ribonuclease T1 (RNase T1) is a small, globular protein of 104 amino acids for which extensive thermodynamic and structural information is known. To assess the specific influence of variations in amino acid sequence on the mechanism for protein folding, circularly permuted variants of RNase T1 were constructed and characterized in terms of catalytic activity and thermodynamic stability. The dis...
متن کاملConformational stability of ribonuclease T1 determined by hydrogen-deuterium exchange.
The hydrogen-deuterium exchange kinetics of 37 backbone amide residues in RNase T1 have been monitored at 25, 40, 45, and 50 degrees C at pD 5.6 and at 40 and 45 degrees C at pD 6.6. The hydrogen exchange rate constants of the hydrogen-bonded residues varied over eight orders of magnitude at 25 degrees C with 13 residues showing exchange rates consistent with exchange occurring as a result of g...
