A comparative electron microscopical study of RNA from different sources

Abstract

Electron micrographs of ribosomal RNA from Escherichia coli, microsomal RNA from calf, rat, and chick liver, Bacillus cereus RNA and E. coli soluble RNA are presented. Filaments of about 10 A in diameter could be observed in preparations obtained from aqueous solutions of high molecular weight RNA. When ammonium acetate solutions were used a tendency for coiling and aggregation was observed. E. coli soluble RNA appears as small, sometimes elongated particles the smallest diameter being of about 10 A.
