A RIBONUCLEIC ACID FRACTION FROM YEAST RELATED IN COMPOSITION TO DESOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID

Abstract
Comparison of the uptake of P32 into 2[image]+3[image] and 5[image] isomers of nucleotides obtained by alkaline and diesterase hydrolysis of yeast ribonucleic acid indicates the existence of a fraction having a high rate of turnover and a composition very similar to yeast desoxyribonucleic acid, uridylic replacing thymidylic acid.
