Calcium phosphate co-precipitates half its mass of ribonucleic acids made from yeast, tobacco leaf and tobacco mosaic virus when the precipitate is formed in their presence. It also precipitates deoxyribonucleic acid. Degraded nucleic acids are less completely precipitated. Less nucleic acid is adsorbed by preformed calcium phosphate. In suitable circumstances nucleic acid is fixed by leaf fibre. Autolytic changes in leaf fibre, and in calcium-chelators in leaf extracts, explain many differences in the amount of nucleic acid present in extracts made from tobacco leaves in different ways.

The amino acid sequence of dahlemense, a naturally occuring strain of tobacco mosaic virus, has been determined and compared with that of the strain vulgare (Fig. 7). In this communication the experimental details are given for the elucidation of the amino acid sequences within two tryptic peptides with 65 amino acids.
