The terminal fragment obtained by hydrolysis with ribonuclease T(1) of the ribonucleic acid from the bacteriophage Qbeta has been isolated and purified. The results of chemical and enzymatic hydrolysis of this fragment and of the intact RNA itself indicate that the fragment has the composition (10 Cp, 4 Up), and that the RNA has the terminal sequence -GP(9 Cp, 4 Up) CpA. These conclusions are supported by the results of an application of the sedimentation-equilibrium method in which the molecular weight of the Qbeta fragment was compared with that of the corresponding fragment from f2 phage RNA for which the terminal sequence, -GpUpUpApCpCpApCpCpCpA had previously been determined.
通过用核糖核酸酶T(1)水解噬菌体Qβ的核糖核酸而获得的末端片段已被分离和纯化。对该片段以及完整RNA本身进行化学和酶促水解的结果表明,该片段的组成为(10个胞嘧啶核苷酸,4个尿嘧啶核苷酸),并且RNA具有末端序列-GP(9个胞嘧啶核苷酸,4个尿嘧啶核苷酸)CpA。沉降平衡法的应用结果支持了这些结论,在该方法中,将Qβ片段的分子量与f2噬菌体RNA的相应片段的分子量进行了比较,f2噬菌体RNA的末端序列-GpUpUpApCpCpApCpCpCpA先前已被确定。
