Abstract
Ribonucleosides can be produced by calcium-catalyzed cleavage of RNA f ollowed by dephosphorylation of calcium salts of mononucleotides by in tact mycelium of Spicaria violacea as a biocatalyst. Under optimal con ditions the efficiency of degradation of baker's yeast RNA to a mixtur e of ribonucleosides is 96% of the theoretical value.
