Abstract
Evidence is presented that a poly(U) template selectively favors the oligomerization of the activated, 3'-5' pyrophosphate-linked dimer pdAppdAp, in comparison with the 3'-3' and 5'-5' linked dimers. In the absence of poly(U), the 5'-5' linked dimer is the most reactive, and chains are formed which are more than 60 monomer units in length.
