poly(A) + H2O 35-nucleotide poly(A) chain, Tyr-313 and Glu-390 are crucial for RNA specificity of RNase II, Arg-500 residue in the active site is crucial for activity but not for RNA binding. Inside the cavity the unique specific contacts for ribose established by RNase II are those with the 2nd and 4th nucleotides from the 3'-end of the RNA molecule. These contacts are necessary and sufficient for cleavage to occur, and therefore, they seem to be responsible for the RNA specificity versus DNA in RNase II Escherichia coli 5'-AMP + oligonucleotide
