Preliminary studies on ribonucleases from Poa pratensis seeds
Ribonuclease was extracted from Poa pratensis seeds with 0.1 M acetate buffer, pH 5.1, and then precipitated with alcohol. The enzyme was separated into 5 fractions (I-V) after chromatography on DEAE-cellulose at pH 5.1.

A Comparative Overview of the Role of Human Ribonucleases in Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay. [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells possess surveillance mechanisms that detect and degrade defective transcripts. Aberrant transcripts include mRNAs with a premature termination codon (PTC), targeted by the nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) pathway, and mRNAs lacking a ...

The reaction of ribonuclease inhibitor with modified ribonucleases [PDF]
1. The effect of chemical modification of ribonuclease on its reaction with ribonuclease inhibitor has been studied. 2. Removal of free amino groups from the enzyme with nitrous acid or by acetylation did not affect the reaction. Some changes altered the stoicheiometry of the reaction and ribonuclease S was found to be inhibited linearly by increasing ...
