Abstract

Two different U and S4-U containing polymers with U:s4U ratio of 3:1 and 5:1 were synthesized. Their activity as messenger RNA was studied in an amino acid incorporation cell-free system from rat liver. It was shown that both copolymers can stimulate the incorporation of phenylalanine into oligophynylalamyl-tRNA.
