Abstract
An enzyme in extracts of Euglena gracilis splits both purine and pyrimidine internucleotide bonds of ribonucleic acid. Its pH optimum is at 4.5; it is very heat-labile and is rather insensitive to inhibition by metal ions or sulfhydryl group reagents. A partial purification of the enzyme is described.Entities:
