abstract = {Identification of a modified nucleotide and its localization within an RNA molecule is a difficult task. Only direct sequencing of purified RNA molecules and high-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry analysis of purified RNA fragments allow determination of both the type and location of a given modified nucleotide within an RNA of 50-150 nt in length. The objective of this chapter is to describe in detail a few simple procedures that we have found particularly suited for the detection, localization, and quantification of modified nucleotides within an RNA of known sequence. The methods can also be used to reveal the enzymatic activity of a particular RNA-modifying enzyme in vitro or in vivo. The procedures are based on the use of radiolabeled RNA (with [32P], [14C], or [3H]) or [32P]-postlabeled oligonucleotides and two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography of labeled nucleotides on cellulose plates. This chapter provides useful maps of the migration characteristics of 70 modified nucleotides on thin-layer cellulose plates.},

abstract = {A single-strand-specific nuclease from rye germ (Rn nuclease I) was characterized as a tool for secondary and tertiary structure investigation of RNAs. To test the procedure, yeast tRNA(Phe) and tRNA(Asp) for which the tertiary structures are known, as well as the 3'-half of tRNA(Asp) were used as substrates. In tRNA(Phe) the nuclease introduced main primary cuts at positions U33 and A35 of the anticodon loop and G18 and G19 of the D loop. No primary cuts were observed within the double stranded stems. In tRNA(Asp) the main cuts occurred at positions U33, G34, U35, C36 of the anticodon loop and G18 and C20:1 positions in the D loop. No cuts were observed in the T loop in intact tRNA(Asp) but strong primary cleavages occurred at positions psi 55, C56, A57 within that loop in the absence of the tertiary interactions between T and D loops (use of 3'-half tRNA(Asp)). These results show that Rn nuclease I is specific for exposed single-stranded regions.},
