Abstract:
Two hexanucleotides A-U-G-U-G-A and C-A-A-U-U-G were synthesized from the chemically synthesized trimers C-A-A and A-U-G by addition of 2'-O-(o-nitrobenzyl)nucleoside diphosphates using polynucleotide phosphorylase isolated from either Escherichia coli or Micrococcus luteus. In each reaction the preference of the enzyme was tested. The o-nitrobenzyl group was removed after addition of the mononucleotide and the deblocked product was isolated by chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex in high yields.
