  • Title: The cleavage of transfer RNA by a single strang specific endonuclease from Neurospora crassa.
    Author: Tal J.
    Journal: Nucleic Acids Res; 1975 Jul; 2(7):1073-82. PubMed ID: 125412.
    Abstract:
    Endonuclease from Neurospora crassa (NcNase), an enzyme with specificity for polynucleotides lacking an ordered structure, was shown to cleave su+3 tRNATyr from E. coli preferentially in the anticodon region. The enzyme cleaved unfractionated tRNA primarily to 30 - 50 nucleotide size fragments, implying that most or all tRNA species are also cleaved in the anticodon region. The 3' terminal sequence C-A was cleaved as well. The results are discussed with respect to the three dimensional structure of tRNA.
