The structure of the ribosomal 5 S RNA was examined using Fe(II)-EDTA, a solvent-based reagent that cleaves the phosphodiester backbone of both double- and single-stranded RNA but is restricted by the three-dimensional structure. In the yeast 5 S RNA, cleavages were significantly restricted in six specific regions of the molecule; restrictions in only two of these regions were clearly dependent on a high salt/magnesium ion environment. A comparison of four RNAs of diverse origin revealed strong similarities in the cleavage profiles supporting a highly conserved higher order structure. Taken together with previous studies these data provide a more detailed modeling of the three-dimensional structure.
