In an attempt to prepare selenated tRNA, transformation of 4-thiouridine to selenouridine in tRNA was attempted. Feasibility studies were performed by spectrophotometrically monitored conversion of 1 methyl-4- thiocyanatouracil to 1-methyl-4-selenouracil by NaHSe. E.coli mixed tRNA were exposed to the same sequence of reactions and the identity of the products was confirmed. (DDA)
