CRYSTALLINE RIBONUCLEASE [PDF]
1. A crystalline enzyme capable of digesting yeast nucleic acid has been isolated from fresh beef pancreas. 2. The enzyme called "ribonuclease" is a soluble protein of albumin type. Its molecular weight is about 15,000. Its isoelectric point is in the region of pH 8.0. 3.

Immune Modulation by Human Secreted RNases at the Extracellular Space
The ribonuclease A superfamily is a vertebrate-specific family of proteins that encompasses eight functional members in humans. The proteins are secreted by diverse innate immune cells, from blood cells to epithelial cells and their levels in our body ...

Streptomyces RNases – Function and impact on antibiotic synthesis
Streptomyces are soil dwelling bacteria that are notable for their ability to sporulate and to produce antibiotics and other secondary metabolites. Antibiotic biosynthesis is controlled by a variety of complex regulatory networks, involving activators ...

Cleavage of pyrene-stabilized RNA bulge loops by trans-(±)-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine [PDF]
Chemical agents that cleave HIV genome can be potentially used for anti-HIV therapy. In this report, the cleavage of the upper stem-loop region of HIV-1 TAR RNA was studied in a variety of buffers containing organic catalysts.

Ribonuclease and Ribonuclease-Inhibitors Among Higher Plants
Summary1) Aqueous extracts prepared from 41 common plants were tested for ribonuclease activity and for capacity to inhibit pancreatic ribonuclease. Extracts of 5 plants (Phlox sp., Lathyrus sp., Asclepias syriaca, Allium sp. and Yucca filamentosa) were found capable of degrading ribonucleic acid, and these plants appear to constitute new sources of ...

First biochemical characterization of a novel ribonuclease from wild mushroom Amanita hemibapha [PDF]
A 45-kDa ribonuclease (RNase) was purified from dried fruiting bodies of the wild mushroom Amanita hemibapha. It was adsorbed on DEAE-cellulose, S-sepharose, and finally purified on Superdex 75. The RNase exhibited maximal RNase activity at pH 5 and in a
