Two low-molecular-weight RNAs are associated with the 70S RNA complex of Rous sarcoma virus: a previously described 4S RNA and a newly identified 5S RNA. The 4S RNA constitutes 3 to 4% of the 70S RNA complex or the equivalent of 12 to 20 molecules per 70S RNA. It exhibits a number of structural properties characteristic of transfer RNA as revealed by two-dimensional electrophoresis of oligonucleotides obtained from a T1 ribonuclease digest of the 4S RNA species. The 5S RNA is approximately 120 nucleotides in length, constitutes 1% of the 70S RNA complex or the equivalent of 3 to 4 molecules per molecules of 70S RNA, and is identical in nucleotide composition and structure to 5S RNA from uninfected chicken embryo fibroblasts. Melting studies indicate that the 5S RNA is released from the 70S RNA complex at the same temperature required to dissociate 70S RNA into its constituent 35S subunits. In contrast, greater than 80% of the 4S RNA is released from 70S RNA prior to its conversion into subunits. The possible biological significance of these 70S-associated RNAs is discussed. 相似文献

1. Human APP cDNA hybridized to a 3.5 kb mRNA in liver and brain RNA from chickens, pigeons, quail and ducks as well as in RNA from choroid plexus of chicken and quail. In contrast to all other species hitherto examined a 1.6 kb mRNA hybridizing to APP cDNA was found in abundant amounts in RNA from chicken and quail livers. 2. In the chicken, before hatching, the levels of APP mRNA in total RNA from liver and choroid plexus were higher than those in RNA from liver and choroid plexus of adults. However, RNA from the rest of the brain of chicken embryos contained less APP mRNA than RNA from brain of adults. 3. In the chicken, between 10 and 40 days after hatching, APP mRNA levels in RNA from liver were higher than adult levels, APP mRNA levels in RNA from choroid plexus were similar to adult levels and APP mRNA levels in RNA from the rest of brain were below the adult levels. 相似文献

Molybdate-stabilized, unactivated rat hepatic glucocorticoid-receptor complexes were purified by a three-step procedure which includes affinity chromatography, gel filtration and anion exchange chromatography. Following elution of unactivated steroid-receptor complexes from the final DEAE-cellulose column, RNA which remained bound to the anion exchange resin was eluted with 1 M KCl. This RNA was small and heterogeneous in size. Equivalent amounts of RNA were detected after a mock purification which was devoid of receptors, suggesting that the presence of this RNA is not dependent on that of receptors. Both a [32P]DNA complementary to the RNA eluted from DEAE-cellulose and a [32P]DNA probe synthesized from total rat liver RNA gave similar results when hybridized to total rat liver RNA. These data indicated that the RNA which co-purified with unactivated receptors through the first two steps was very similar to total RNA in overall composition. Virtually identical hybridization patterns were also detected when end-labeled probes generated from the DEAE-cellulose eluted RNA or total liver RNA were hybridized to total genomic rat DNA, suggesting that the RNA eluted from the anion exchange resin is not specific or unique. Although these results do not exclude the possibility that there could be specific RNA species associated with the unactivated glucocorticoid receptor, they do indicate that the majority of the RNA eluted from DEAE-cellulose following elution of receptor complexes appears indistinguishable from total rat liver RNA and can be detected in parallel mock purifications. 相似文献

Neurospora crassa ribosomes contain a species of ribonucleic acid (RNA) of molecular weight 54,000, similar to 5.8S ribosomal RNA previously described for other eukaryotic organisms. The 5.8S RNA from N. crassa was found to be released by heat treatment at 60 C from 25S ribosomal RNA but not from 18S ribosomal RNA. The base composition of N. crassa 5.8S RNA was similar to that of 5.8S RNA from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but differed from animal 5.8S RNA. During the course of this study, it was discovered that N. crassa 25S ribosomal RNA had a number of internal cleavages that may exist in vivo. 相似文献

RNA sequence relatedness among avian RNA tumor virus genomes was analyzed by inhibition of DNA-RNA hybrid formation between 3H-labeled 35S viral RNA and an excess of leukemic or normal chicken cell DNA with increasing concentrations of unlabeled 35S viral RNA. The avian viruses tested were Rous associated virus (RAV)-3, avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV), RAV-60, RAV-61, and B-77 sarcoma virus. Hybridization of 3H-labeled 35S AMV RNA with DNA from normal chicken cells was inhibited by unlabeled 35S RAV-0 RNA as effeciently (100%) as by unlabeled AMV RNA. Hybridization between 3H-labeled 35S AMV RNA and DNA from leukemic chicken myeloblasts induced by AMV was suppressed 100 and 68% by unlabeled 35S RNA from AMV and RAV-0, respectively. Hybridization between 3H-labeled RAV-0 and leukemic chicken myeloblast DNA was inhibited 100 and 67% by unlabeled 35S RNA from RAV-0 and AMV, respectively. It appears therefore that the AMV and RAV-0 genomes are 67 to 70% homologous and that AMV hybridizes to RAV-0 like sequences in normal chicken DNA. Hybridization between AMV RNA and leukemic chicken DNA was inhibited 40% by RNA from RAV-60 or RAV-61 and 50% by B-77 RNA. Hybridization between RAV-0 RNA and leukemic chicken DNA was inhibited 80% by RAV-60 or RAV-61 and 70% by B-77 RNA. Hybridization between 3H-labeled 35S RNA from RAV-60 or RAV-61 and leukemic chicken myeloblast DNA was reduced equally by RNA from RAV-60, RAV-61, AMV or RAV-0; this suggests that RNA from RAV-60 and RAV-61 hybridizes with virus-specific sequences in leukemic DNA which are shared by AMV, RAV-0, RAV-60, and RAV-61 RNA'S. Hybridization between 3H-labeled 35S RNA from RAV-61 and normal pheasant DNA was inhibited 100% by homologous viral RNA, 22 TO 26% BY RNA from AMV or RAV-0, and 30 to 33% by RNA from RAV-60 or B-77. Nearly complete inhibition of hybricization between RAV-0 RNA and leukemic chicken DNA by a mixture of AMV and B-77 35S RNAs indicates that the RNA sequences shared by B-77 virus and RAV-0. It appears that different avian RNA tumor virus genomes have from 50 to 80% homology in nucleotide sequences and that the degree of hybridization between normal chicken cell DNA and a given viral RNA can be predicted from the homology that exists between the viral RNA tested and RAV-0 RNA. 相似文献

It was shown previously that E. coli RNA polymerase and T7 RNA polymerase being incubated with oligonucleotides of different length derived from RNA endonuclease hydrolysate bind selectively to certain oligonucleotides with the length larger than or equal to 5. The data presented demonstrate that T3 RNA polymerase also binds selectively from the isoplith mixtures certain oligonucleotides starting from pentanucleotides. Adding of excess of T3 RNA polymerase it was possible to exhaustively extract the recognizable oligonucleotides from the isoplith mixture. However, the exhausted by T3 RNA polymerase mixture of pentanucleotides still contained those which are bound selectively by T7 and E. coli RNA polymerases. The data suggest that various RNA-polymerases recognize different oligoribonucleotides. It was shown that T3 DNA inhibits the selective binding of penta-or heptaribonucleotides to T3 RNA polymerase competing obviously for the enzyme. The T3 RNA polymerase bound penta- or heptanucleotides inhibit DNA-dependent RNA synthesis carried out by the enzyme; the isoplith mixtures which do not contain T3 RNA polymerase bound oligonucleotides are deprived of the inhibitory properties. Only those isoplith mixtures contain T3 RNA polymerase bound oligonucleotides which were derived from symmetrically transcribed RNA which have obviously promoter simulating sequences. The data provide evidence that T2 RNA polymerase binds selectively the oligonucleotides mimicking the promotor recognition sites. 相似文献

RNASwift is an inexpensive, versatile method for the rapid extraction of RNA. Existing RNA extraction methods typically use hazardous chemicals including phenol, chloroform and formamide which are often difficult to completely remove from the extracted RNA. RNASwift uses sodium chloride and sodium dodecyl sulphate to lyse the cells and isolate the RNA from the abundant cellular components in conjunction with solid phase extraction or isopropanol precipitation to rapidly purify the RNA. Moreover, the purified RNA is directly compatible with downstream analysis. Using spectrophotometry in conjunction with ion pair reverse phase chromatography to analyse the extracted RNA, we show that RNASwift extracts and purifies RNA of higher quality and purity in comparison to alternative RNA extraction methods. The RNASwift method yields approximately 25 μg of RNA from only 108Escherichia coli cells. Furthermore, RNASwift is versatile; the same simple reagents can be used to rapidly extract RNA from a variety of different cells including bacterial, yeast and mammalian cells. In addition to the extraction of total RNA, the RNASwift method can also be used to extract double stranded RNA from genetically modified E. coli in higher yields compared to alternative methods. 相似文献

Membranes from cells infected with Sindbis virus had associated with them viral ribonucleic acid (RNA) polymerase and about 60 to 70% of the viral RNA labeled when short pulses were used. This RNA contained most of the replicative intermediate and replicative form of viral RNA found in the infected cells. The use of "Mg(2+) sarkosyl crystals" permitted the isolation of membrane-bound nucleic acids and allowed the demonstration that Sindbis virus RNA was synthesized on a membrane-viral RNA complex. Viral RNA from the infecting virions first became associated with the membranes during the latent period and, subsequently, slowly detached. The attachment of the viral RNA to the membranes did not require active viral RNA polymerase, since RNA from ts6, an RNA(-) temperature-sensitive mutant of Sindbis virus, associated with cellular membranes at a nonpermissive temperature. However, the subsequent detachment of the RNA from the membranes was restricted in the absence of viral RNA synthesis. The results indicate that association of viral RNA with cellular membranes may represent an early step occurring during the replication of Sindbis virus RNA. 相似文献

Newly-synthesized, high molecular weight RNA from salivary gland polytene chromosomes and from the nuclear sap was investigated by RNA/DNA hybridization. Salivary glands were incubated for 90 min with radioactive nucleosides and afterwards fixed. Chromosomes and nuclear sap were subsequently isolated by microdissection. Labelled RNA, extracted from three different chromosomal fractions and from the nuclear sap, was subjected to different hybridization procedures under conditions which primarily allow repeated nucleotide sequences to interact.In one type of experiments RNA was hybridized by a microtechnique to filter-bound DNA at increasing RNA/DNA input ratios. Nuclear sap RNA saturated 0.25−0.30% of the DNA, while the chromosomal RNA fractions had not reached a plateau even after hybridization with 0.5−1% of the DNA. Thus chromosomal RNA appears to contain sequences which are absent from, or present in only low concentration in, the nuclear sap. Nuclear sap RNA hybrids also showed a higher thermal stability than chromosomal RNA hybrids, which may reflect a higher precision of base-pairing in hybrids formed by nuclear sap RNA.In a second type of experiments the time dependence of hybrid formation was investigated. The hybridization rate for nuclear sap RNA was about three times as high as the corresponding rate for chromosomal RNA. This result indicates a relative enrichment of rapidly hybridizing RNA sequences in the nuclear sap.The difference in hybridization properties between chromosomal and nuclear sap RNA may be due to a predominance in the nuclear sap of RNA from a special chromosomal puff, the Balbiani Ring 2 (BR2), which has been shown to contain highly repeated DNA sequences. A comparison between the hybridization properties of nuclear sap RNA and BR2 RNA indicated that 55–70% of nuclear sap RNA may be derived from BR2.The specific hybridization rate of chromosomal RNA points to an average multiplicity of about 30 for its complementary DNA sequences. On the basis of the present and previous results it is suggested that the repeated DNA is arranged in families of related sequences and that sequences belonging to a particular family are distributed in different chromosomes. 相似文献

In the liver of rats fed the azocarcinogen 3'-methyl-4-dimethylaminoazobenzene (3'MeDAB) reiterated RNA sequence transcribed from middle repetitive DNA are released into the cytoplasm. The same repetitive nucleotide sequences can be isolated from the chromatin of the liver of control animals in the form of metabolically highly active, 13 000 daltons RNA. This small, chromatin-associated RNA originates from nuclear RNA larger than 10 S. The discontinuation of the feeding of the azocarcinogen will not stop the release of the nuclear reiterated RNA sequences into the cytoplasm. The repetitive sequences of nuclear RNA which are released into the cytoplasm in animals fed the azocarcinogen can no longer be found in the chromatin in the form of small RNA molecules. The results can be explained by the assumption that the reiterated RNA sequences are involved in the upholding of RNA processing. A cell-specific processing of RNA will be maintained by the interaction of reiterated RNA fragments from already processed RNA with the reiterated complementary sequences on RNA yet to be processed. Existence of such a feed-back circuit would make it possible to explain how a temporary interference of the azocarcinogen with RNA processing will result in the disappearance of specific reiterated RNA sequences from the chromatin. It could also explain the continuation of the release of the same repeated RNA sequences into the cytoplasm as part of larger RNA molecules even after the removal of the carcinogen. 相似文献

Nodamura virus (NoV) and Flock House virus (FHV) are members of the family Nodaviridae. The nodavirus genome is composed of two positive-sense RNA segments: RNA1 encodes the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and RNA2 encodes the capsid protein precursor. A small subgenomic RNA3, which encodes nonstructural proteins B1 and B2, is transcribed from RNA1 during RNA replication. Previously, FHV was shown to replicate both of its genomic RNAs and to transcribe RNA3 in transiently transfected yeast cells. FHV RNAs and their derivatives could also be expressed from plasmids containing RNA polymerase II promoters. Here we show that all of these features can be recapitulated for NoV, the only nodavirus that productively infects mammals. Inducible plasmid-based systems were used to characterize the RNA replication requirements for NoV RNA1 and RNA2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Induced NoV RNA1 replication was robust. Three previously described NoV RNA1 mutants behaved in yeast as they had in mammalian cells. Yeast colonies were selected from cells expressing NoV RNA1, and RNA2 replicons that encoded yeast nutritional markers, from plasmids. Unexpectedly, these NoV RNA replication-dependent yeast colonies were recovered at frequencies 10(4)-fold lower than in the analogous FHV system. Molecular analysis revealed that some of the NoV RNA replication-dependent colonies contained mutations in the NoV B2 open reading frame in the replicating viral RNA. In addition, we found that NoV RNA1 could support limited replication of a deletion derivative of the heterologous FHV RNA2 that expressed the yeast HIS3 selectable marker, resulting in formation of HIS+ colonies. 相似文献

Fragmented 125I-labelled RNA from RNA tumor viruses was hybridized to unlabelled RNA from cells, viruses, and homoribopolymers. The viral RNA interacted with all RNA tested, except for certain homoribopolymers. Complex formation with unlabelled RNA was verified by nuclease resistance, buoyant density measurements, and thermal stability in solutions of different ionic strength. The RNAase-resistant complex involved 20-30% of the sequences in the 125I-labelled viral RNA and formed preferentially with nuclear RNA of cells. 125I-labelled hemoglobin mRNA, 125I-labelled immunoglobulin light chain (lambda2) mRNA, or 125I-labelled viral RNA from encephalomyocarditis virus (EMC) dit not from RNAase-resistant complexes with unlabelled cellular RNA. 相似文献
