Summary

The RNA moieties of ribonuclease P purified from both E. coli and B. subtilis can cleave tRNA precursor molecules in buffers containing either 60 mM Mg2+ or 10 mM MG2+ plus 1 mM spermidine, and in vitro, the RNA and protein subunits from one species can complement sub units from the other species in reconstitution experiments.
