[Biosynthesis of extracellular ribonuclease by Bacillus pumilus]
Abstract:
Conditions for the biosynthesis of alkaline extracellular ribonuclease by Bacillus pumilus were studied and their comparison with that of the biosynthesis of ribonuclease by Bacillus intermedius was made. It was estimated that ribonuclease of Bacillus pumilus is synthesized post-exponentially, its synthesis is inhibited by inorganic phosphate and is stimulated by actinomycin D, as the synthesis of ribonuclease by Bacillus intermedius. At the same time essential differences in dynamic of enzyme formation, extent of phosphate inhibition and spores forming conditions of the comparing cultures were found.

Types of RNA
Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.

Ribosomal RNA Synthesis
Ribosome biogenesis begins with the synthesis of 5S and 45S pre-rRNAs by distinct RNA polymerases. The primary transcripts are extensively processed and modified before they are bound and folded by ribosomal proteins and assembly factors,...
