[Specificity of synthetic polyribonucleotides hydrolysis by endoribonuclease from cobra (Naja oxiana) venom]. 1981

S A Magarill, and S K Vasilenko, and V K Raĭt

An analysis of kinetic differences in homopolyribonucleotides hydrolysis by cobra venom endoribonuclease was carried out. It was concluded that the rate and intensity of hydrolysis as well as the length of the linear parts of the kinetic curves are correlated with the content of the nucleotide units with the C3'-endo conformation in the substrates. The structure factor was shown to predominate in some cases over the temperature factor. Protamine sulfate inhibits the enzyme by blocking its phosphodiether bonds. Study on the effects of divalent metal ions demonstrated the possibility that the enzyme-Me2+ complex is functionally active and that the ion-free polyribonucleotides are true substrates.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D011131 Polyribonucleotides A group of 13 or more ribonucleotides in which the phosphate residues of each ribonucleotide act as bridges in forming diester linkages between the ribose moieties.
D002413 Cations, Divalent Positively charged atoms, radicals or groups of atoms with a valence of plus 2, which travel to the cathode or negative pole during electrolysis. Divalent Cations
D004546 Elapid Venoms Venoms from snakes of the family Elapidae, including cobras, kraits, mambas, coral, tiger, and Australian snakes. The venoms contain polypeptide toxins of various kinds, cytolytic, hemolytic, and neurotoxic factors, but fewer enzymes than viper or crotalid venoms. Many of the toxins have been characterized.
