	Ribonuclease - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ribonuclease, abbreviated commonly as RNase, is an nuclease that catalyzes the breakdown of RNA into smaller components.
		RNase A (e.g., bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A: PDB 2AAS, EC 3.1.27.5) is one of the hardiest enzymes in common laboratory usage; one method of isolating it is to boil a crude cellular extract until all enzymes other than RNase A are denatured.
		RNase H is a ribonuclease that cleaves the RNA in a DNA/RNA duplex to produce ssDNA.

		Ribonuclease activity was visualized by staining the gel with washing buffer supplemented with 0, 2%(w/v) toluidine blue O (Sigma, Munich, Germany) and destaining with washing buffer.
		Ribonuclease activity was assayed at 37°C in PBS (pH7, 2) by co-incubation of 0, 16 μg/ml of mRNA or 166 nM of 18-mer homopolymers and the indicated final dilution of ribonuclease preparations.
		Since a similar specificity was observed for the major ribonuclease extracted from mammalian's epidermis [38,39] we anticipate that the utilization of C-low RNA may be a method to increase the efficacy of RNA-therapies delivered transcutaneously, intradermally or subcutaneously.

	Ribonuclease inhibitor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The outer layer is composed of α-helices and the inner layer of parallel β-strands.
		Ribonuclease inhibitor (RI) is a large (~450 residues, ~49 kDa), acidic (pI ~4.7), leucine-rich repeat protein that forms extremely tight complexes with certain ribonucleases.
		The affinity of RI for ribonucleases is perhaps the highest for any protein-protein interaction; the dissociation constant of the RI-RNase A complex is roughly 20 fM under physiological conditions while that for the RI-angiogenin complex is even smaller (<1 fM).

		Ribonuclease is an enzyme that degrades RNA, which is an essential cell function.
		Scientists have known since the 1950s that mammalian ribonuclease is toxic to certain types of cancer, but only in quantities too large to be useful from a clinical standpoint.
		Subsequent work with frog ribonuclease has led to a new drug, Onconase, which is now in Stage III human trials for treating lung cancer.

	TB #152: Choice of Ribonucleases for a Ribonuclease Protection Assay
		Ribonuclease protection assays (RPAs) are a technique used for detection and quantitation of specific RNAs.
		The method is based on the ability of ribonuclease to specifically degrade single-stranded RNA while leaving intact a labeled antisense RNA probe that is hybridized to its target.
		Ribonuclease protection assays are more sensitive than Northern blots for the detection of mRNAs, more tolerant of partially degraded RNA, and are able to distinguish between transcripts of multi-gene families that co-migrate on Northern blots.

	Worthington Ribonuclease
		Pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase I) catalyzes cleavage of the phosphodiester bond between the 5'-ribose of a nucleotide and the phosphate group attached to the 3'-ribose of an adjacent pyrimidine nucleotide forming a 2',3'-cyclic phosphate which may then be hydrolyzed to the corresponding 3'-nucleoside phosphate.
		Ribonuclease B has a molecular weight of 14,700 ± 300 daltons.
		It is a glycosylated derivative of RNase A. Ribonuclease is inhibited by heavy metal ions and it is competitively inhibited by DNA.
