The accessibility of ds- and ss-segments of phage MS2 RNA to ds- and ss-specific nucleases (RNase III, nuclease SV and nuclease S1) was studied. The results show that the RNA has hydrolysis sites for all the nucleases used. These sites are unvariable in a wide range of the conditions (ionic strength, pH, bivalent cations and temperature) and are not changed also after denaturation-renaturation of the RNA. This testifies that the distribution and interactions of ds- and ss-segments in the whole molecule are very specific and stable.

D004722 Endoribonucleases A family of enzymes that catalyze the endonucleolytic cleavage of RNA. It includes EC 3.1.26.-, EC 3.1.27.-, EC 3.1.30.-, and EC 3.1.31.-. Endoribonuclease
D006868 Hydrolysis The process of cleaving a chemical compound by the addition of a molecule of water.
D001435 Bacteriophages Viruses whose hosts are bacterial cells. Phages,Bacteriophage,Phage
D001665 Binding Sites The parts of a macromolecule that directly participate in its specific combination with another molecule. Combining Site,Binding Site,Combining Sites,Site, Binding,Site, Combining,Sites, Binding,Sites, Combining
D012260 Ribonucleases Enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of ester bonds within RNA. EC 3.1.-. Nucleases, RNA,RNase,Acid Ribonuclease,Alkaline Ribonuclease,Ribonuclease,RNA Nucleases,Ribonuclease, Acid,Ribonuclease, Alkaline
D012330 RNA, Double-Stranded RNA consisting of two strands as opposed to the more prevalent single-stranded RNA. Most of the double-stranded segments are formed from transcription of DNA by intramolecular base-pairing of inverted complementary sequences separated by a single-stranded loop. Some double-stranded segments of RNA are normal in all organisms. Double-Stranded RNA,Double Stranded RNA,RNA, Double Stranded
D012367 RNA, Viral Ribonucleic acid that makes up the genetic material of viruses. Viral RNA
D015719 Single-Strand Specific DNA and RNA Endonucleases Enzymes that catalyze the endonucleolytic cleavage of single-stranded regions of DNA or RNA molecules while leaving the double-stranded regions intact. They are particularly useful in the laboratory for producing "blunt-ended" DNA molecules from DNA with single-stranded ends and for sensitive GENETIC TECHNIQUES such as NUCLEASE PROTECTION ASSAYS that involve the detection of single-stranded DNA and RNA. Single Strand Specific DNA and RNA Endonucleases
D043244 Ribonuclease III An endoribonuclease that is specific for double-stranded RNA. It plays a role in POST-TRANSCRIPTIONAL RNA PROCESSING of pre-RIBOSOMAL RNA and a variety of other RNA structures that contain double-stranded regions. Dicer Enzyme,RNase D,RNase III,Ribonuclease D,Enzyme, Dicer
