Popis: Met-tRNA f bound at low Mg ion concentrations to rabbit reticulocyte 40 S ribosomal subunits in the presence of ApUpG and a eukaryotic tRNA binding factor serves readily as a substrate for a Met-tRNA hydrolase from rabbit reticulocytes. This hydrolysis occurs rapidly at 0 °C, appears to be specific for Met-tRNA f , and is not inhibited by 60 S ribosomal subunits. These reactions may be responsible for the accumulation of deacylated tRNA f Met observed in ribosomes isolated from sodium fluoride-treated cells.
