Chemical modification of adenine residues in mouse 5S rRNA with monoperphthalate: the secondary structure of 5S rRNA.
The chemical modification of adenine residues in mouse 5S rRNA with monoperphthalate was carried out to investigate the higher ordered structure of 5S rRNA. The adenine residues at positions 11, 22 (or/and 23), 49 (or/and 50), 54 (or/and 55), 77, 83, 88, 90 and 100 (or/and 101) were modified. This result further confirmed the secondary structure of 5S rRNA constituted of 5 helices and 5 loops postulated by other chemical modifications.
