title: Incorporation of ribonucleoside 5'-(alpha-P-borano)triphosphates into a 20-mer RNA by T7 RNA polymerase.
abstract: The enzymatic synthesis of short boranophosphate RNA was studied by comparing the yield and pattern of abortive products of in vitro transcription at steady-state conditions with that of normal RNA. Boranophosphate short RNA can be readily synthesized by T7 RNA polymerase.
