The spectrophotometric analysis of 45S precursor rRNA shows that it contains more G and C residues than does mature 28S or 18S rRNA. The helical content and the length of double-helical segments in 45S and 28S rRNA are similar.

The majority of chloroplast 1.1X106-mol.wt. rRNA molecules are nicked at specific points in the polynucleotide chain, the molecules being kept intact at low temperatures by their secondary structure. Conditions that break hydrogen bonds and lead to loss of secondary structure cause dissociation of the molecule.

Mg2+ was shown to affect the conformation of rRNA over the range of 0.03-1.2M-KCl. The species studies were Escherichia coli S-rRNA and L-rRNA (the RNA moieties of the smaller and larger subribosomal particles respectively) and rabbits S-rRNA and L-rRNA. 2. The addition of Mg2+ to rRNA in reconstitution buffer (0.35M-KCl0.01M-Tris/HCl, pH7.2) at 20° C let to an increase in bihelical secondary structure through the formation of additional (mainly A-U) base-pairs (e.g. an additional approx. 58 A-U base-pairs per molecule of E. coli S-rRNA as judged by u.v. difference spectrophotometry…
