Summary Introduction

To determine: The results of Altman and colleagues experiments to indicate that RNase P is a ribozyme.

Introduction: RNase P acts as a catalyst during the processing of transfer RNA (Ribose nucleic acid) molecules. RNase P contains two subunits- one is a RNA molecule that possesses 377 nucleotides and other is a small protein molecule having a mass of 14 kilo Dalton. Altman and his colleagues purified this RNase P molecule and studied their important properties.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The effect of Mg2+ (magnesium ions) concentration on the function of RNA (Ribose nucleic acid) subunit in RNase P.
