Analysis Note
Protein determined by biuret
Biochem/physiol Actions
Hydrolyzes RNA, RNA-Core, 3′-alkyl- and 3′-aryl-nucleoside phosphates, and polydeoxyribonucleotides with 3′-phosphate end groups to 3′-mononucleotides.
Polynucleotides having 5′-phosphomonoester end groups are not attacked.
Unit Definition
One unit will produce acid soluble nucleotides equivalent to a ΔA260 of 16 in 30 min at pH 6.5 at 37 °C, in a 2.0 mL reaction mixture. Substrate: RNA-Core. Actual A260 is measured on the supernatant after precipitation of the unhydrolyzed RNA with uranyl acetate-perchloric acid reagent.
