Title
Analysis of a 5S RNA–protein complex isolated from the ribosomes of rye embryos
Tristan A. Dyer; Saul Zalik Canadian Journal of Biochemistry 1979. doi:10.1139/o79-186
Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation A low molecular weight RNA–protein complex was released from rye ribosomes after formamide treatment.
- Observation Electrophoresis of the rye RNP yielded one RNA band and one protein band.
- Observation The rye RNP protein had an approximate molecular weight of 41 000.
- Observation The rye RNP RNA component was identified as 5S ribosomal RNA.
- Mechanism The authors infer that nucleotides 68 to 108 primarily interact with protein in the complex and possibly in ribosomes.
