Abstract

Specific heavy atom derivatization of valyl and arginyl tRNA's from E. coli has been effected by the use of the N-hydroxysuccinimide esters of certain carboxylic acids. The derivatized tRNA's have been separated from underivatized material and shown to be stable under the conditions required for crystallization.
