    The enzymatic and physiochemical properties of poly(A) polymerases IIA and IIB from cultured hamster fibroblasts were investigated. The enzymes show an absolute requirement for Mn2+ as the divalent ion. Although Mg2+ alone is inactive, maximum activity is observed in the presence of both Mn2+ and Mg2+. An optimal pH of approx. 8 is found for polymerases IIA and IIB. The enzymes, however, differ somewhat in the pH curves as well as in the Mn2+ and Mg2+ concentration curves. Poly(A) polymerases IIA and IIB have an isoelectric point of about 6 and a sedimentation coefficient of 3.5--4 S. The molecular weights, obtained by gel filtration chromatography, are 145 000 and 155 000 for enzymes IIA and IIB, respectively. Poly(A) polymerases IIA and IIB can utilize a variety of natural and synthetic RNAs as well as DNA as primers. Poly(A) polymerase IIA is saturated at much lower concentrations of primer than enzyme IIB. On the other hand, the chain length of the product synthesized by polymerase IIA is independent of the primer concentration, whereas, with polymerase IIB, the length of the product decreases when the concentration of RNA is increased.
