Abstract: | Summary Oligouridylates with more than eight chain units can serve as a template for the template-directed condensation of ImpA catalyzed by Pb2+ ion. The templates and the Pb2+ ion catalyst facilitate the formation of longer oligoadenylates with five or more units. The ratio of 3–5 linked oligomers to the 2–5 isomers increases with increasing chain length of the oligouridylate template. Short oligouridylates up to a hexamer tend to decrease the yield of oligoadenylates, and do not affect the selectivity of internucleotide linkage.Abbreviations EDTA
