Abstract: 1. tRNA of Bacillus subtilis was found to be variably contaminated with membrane teichoic acid. 2. Samples with high contents of teichoic acid showed no accepting activity for tRNA(Phe) and tRNA(Tyr). 3. Removal of teichoic acid restored accepting activity and fractions containing teichoic acid, separated on Sephadex G-150, inhibited the charging of tRNA(Tyr). 4. The presence of teichoic acid did not inhibit the charging of tRNA(His).
