Low frequency of (5'-3') -C-G- connection in 70S RNA from simian sarcoma virus.

Abstract

The frequency of oligonucleotides obtained from simian sarcoma virus RNA by digestion with ribonuclease T1 was compared with the frequency expected of an RNA molecule in which nucleotides are arranged in random distribution. Oligonucleotides containing C-residue attached to 3'-Gp were found significantly less in simian sarcoma virus 70S RNA than expected by random distribution.
