- ArticlePrangishvili DA, Beabealashvili RS.Mol Biol Rep. 1975 Jul;2(2):129-34.Some properties of an enzyme designated as a two component ribonucleotidyl transferase from E. coli are presented. The enzyme in the presence of magnesium ions catalyzes the synthesis of polyribonucleotide chains using all four nucleoside triphosphates as substrates. The enzyme consists of two components; component A in the presence of Mg2+ catalyzes the synthesis of homo- and heteropolymers using ATP, CTP and UTP but not GTP as substrates. Component B itself does not catalyze any synthesis at all, but its addition to component A affects this component in two ways: quantitatively- the activity of component A considerably increases, and qualitatively- both components together are capable of catalyzing the synthesis of polyribonucleotides consisting of all four ribonucleotides.
