RNA helicase II/Gu (RH-II/Gu) is a nucleolar RNA helicase of the DEAD-box superfamily. In this study, the functional domains of RH-II/Gu molecule were mapped by fusing the protein or its deletion mutants with a green fluorescence protein and subsequently transfecting or microinjecting the recombinant constructs into HeLa cells. In addition to the identification of a nuclear localization signal (NLS) in the N-terminus and a nucleolar targeting signal in the central helicase domain, a hidden NLS and a nucleolar targeting signal were found in the C-terminal arginine/glycine-rich domain. RH-II/Gu colocalized with fibrillarin, a component of the dense fibrillar region of the nucleolus. Overexpression of the entire RH-II/Gu protein or specific domains of the protein in HeLa cells did not interfere with the normal distribution of fibrillarin. However, when the helicase domain was truncated, the distribution pattern of fibrillarin was distorted. Microinjection of the wild-type RH-II/Gu cDNA into the nucleus of HeLa cells did not disrupt normal cell growth. However, when cells were injected with mutant DNA, only a small percentage of HeLa cells progressed through the cell cycle. Analysis of centrosomes in transfected cells demonstrated that most of the mutant-expressing cells were arrested early in the cell cycle. The results suggest that each of the structural domains of RH-II/Gu is necessary for cell growth and cell cycle progression. 相似文献

The cell cycle of HeLa S3 cells synchronized by hydroxyurea was investigated by flow cytometry. Metachromatic fluorochrome acridine orange was used to strain the DNA and RNA of the cells differentially. Periodic changes in the cellular DNA and RNA contents were observed through five cell cycles. The G1 and S phases of synchronized HeLa S3 cells that contained large amounts of RNA became shorter than those of cells that contained smaller amounts of RNA. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the points in the cell cycle at which normal and transformed cells become arrested as a result of polyamine deprivation. Treatment of normal (human fibroblast line PA2 and mouse 3T3) and transformed (CHO, HeLa and SV3T3) cells with methylglyoxal bis-(guanyl-hydrazone) resulted in a significant decrease in the levels of spermidine and spermine which was associated with an inhibition of growth. Examination of the prematurely condensed chromosomes (PCC) of the polyaminedepleted cells, revealed that normal fibroblasts were preferentially arrested in early G1 phase while a majority of cells in the transformed lines were blocked in S phase. A close examination of the PCC of the transformed cells indicated a significant decrease in the number of DNA replication sites suggesting that polyamines have an important role in DNA chain initiation. 相似文献

The kinetics of DNA synthesis restoration in cultured HeLa cells and in L-929 mouse fibroblasts irradiated by gamma-rays of 60Co with a dose of 10 Gy was studied. Early after irradiation the rate of DNA synthesis in HeLa cells measured with 3H-thymidine incorporation was seen to decrease. Two hours later the incorporation starts to increase to reach the control level 4 hours after irradiation and then becomes even higher than this level. The distribution of cells among phases of the cell cycle measured with flow cytometry undergoes changes. 4-6 hours after irradiation part of S-phase cells increased contributing presumably to the elevating of 3H-thymidine incorporation observed at this time. The restoration of the incorporation was suppressed by inhibitors of protein and RNA synthesis--cycloheximide and actinomycin D. It is suggested that the processes of restoration of DNA synthesis in irradiated cells can be of inducible nature. In irradiated HeLa and L-929 cells the restoration of DNA synthesis is resistant to novobiocin, an inhibitor of DNA replication. 相似文献

Inhibition of polyamine biosynthesis by alpha-difluoromethyl ornithine potentiates the cytotoxic effects of arabinosyl cytosine in HeLa cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The object of this study was to examine the effect of inhibition of polyamine biosynthesis on the cell cycle traverse of HeLa cells using α-difluoromethyl ornithine (DFMO), a catalytic irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase. The results of this study indicate that DFMO inhibits HeLa cell growth by causing a decrease in the intracellular levels of putrescine and spermidine without any significant effect on concentration of spermine. The inhibition is readily reversible by exogenous supply of putrescine to the medium. The DFMO treatment also results in an accumulation of cells in S phase. Further, the use of an S phase-specific drug like Ara-C following DFMO treatment results in a synergistic killing of the tumor cells as revealed by the inhibition of cell growth. These observations suggest that exploitation of regulation of the cell cycle by the depletion of polyamines with the use of inhibitors like DFMO might help in designing better therapeutic regimes in combination with other cytotoxic drugs. 相似文献

The effect of putrescine, spermidine and spermine diacridines on the growth of HeLa cells and of P-388 and L-1210 leukemia cells has been evaluated and compared to that of the parent compound, 9-aminoacridine. The diacridines are more effective growth inhibitors than 9-aminoacridine. The primary site of action appears to be the inhibition of RNA synthesis. 相似文献

In vitro cultured BHK and HeLa cells were labelled for several cell division cycles with 32-P-phosphate until they were equilibrated with radiophosphorus. After infection with Semliki forest virus (or mock-infection) these cells were analyzed for viral and ribosomal RNA by sucrose gradient centrifugation. From their radioactivities the mass of each RNA species was calculated. It was found that the BHK and HeLa cells contained on average 11.0 plus or minus 3.1 pg and 6.3 plus or minus 1.9 pg of ribosomal RNA (28 S + 18 S) respectively per cell. At the end of the viral growth cycle, i.e. at 8 h post infection the average mass of viral genome produced per cell was 1.0 -1.9 pg and 0.3 - 0.5 pg in BHK and HeLa cells respectively, of which only 1/10 to 1/20 was released as mature virus particles. The amount of the second major virus specific messenger, the 26 S RNA, was estimated from its ratio to the viral genome after labelling with 3-H-uridine in the presence of actinomycin D. These two viral RNAs were found to be present in roughly equimolar amounts. 相似文献

To estimate the polyamine distribution in bovine lymphocytes and rat liver, the binding constants (K) for DNA, RNA, phospholipid, and ATP were determined under the conditions of 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 2 mM Mg2+, and 150 mM K+. The binding constants of spermine for calf thymus DNA, Escherichia coli 16 S rRNA, phospholipid in rat liver microsomes and ATP were 1.15 x 10(2), 6.69 x 10(2), 2.22 x 10(2), and 5.95 x 10(2) M-1, respectively. From these binding constants and experimentally determined cellular concentrations of macromolecules, ATP, and polyamines, spermine distribution in the cells was estimated. In bovine lymphocytes, the mols of spermine bound to DNA, RNA, phospholipid, and ATP were 0.79, 3.7, 0.23, and 4.3 per 100 mol of phosphate of macromolecules or ATP, respectively. In rat liver, they were 0.19, 1.0, 0.05, and 0.97/100 mol of phosphate of macromolecules or ATP, respectively. The binding constants of spermidine for macromolecules and ATP were smaller than those of spermine, but a similar tendency was observed with spermidine distribution among macromolecules and ATP in the above two cells. The amount of polyamine bound to DNA and phospholipid was significantly lower than that to RNA. When either the Mg2+ or K+ concentration increased, the amount of free spermine and that bound to RNA and ATP increased, but the amount of spermine bound to DNA and phospholipid decreased. The results indicate that most polyamines exist as a polyamine-RNA complex in cells. Under the conditions that globin synthesis is stimulated by spermine in a rabbit reticulocyte cell-free system, the amount of spermine bound to RNA was very close to the value estimated in the cells. 相似文献

The effects of canavalmine, a structural analogue of spermine, were studied in cultured murine erythroleukemia cells 745A. Canavalmine exerted an inhibition on murine erythroleukemia cell growth at concentrations over 50 microM. The cell proliferation was, however, restored when canavalmine was removed from the culture medium after 24 h. Treatment of the cells with 500 microM canavalmine blocked the accumulation of intracellular polyamines. Especially, both spermine and spermidine levels were reduced below 50% of those in control cells after 48 h and below 30% after 96 h. The decreased contents of spermine and spermidine were compensated for by the increased content of canavalmine incorporated within the cells. In these cells, RNA and protein contents also decreased. The degree of growth inhibition by canavalmine during the cell cycle was examined using synchronized cells. Serum-induced growth stimulation was inhibited by canavalmine most effectively in the cells at G1 phase prior to DNA synthesis. The antiproliferative effect decreased when canavalmine was added to the cells after commencement of DNA synthesis. The results suggest that the growth-inhibitory action of canavalmine on murine erythroleukemia cells is most likely due to an inhibition of early events of the cell cycle, possibly due to the interference of a structure-specific function of spermidine and/or spermine on DNA replication. 相似文献

Thymidine as a synchronizing agent. I. Nucleic acid and protein formation in synchronous HeLa cultures treated with excess thymidine 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Synchronous cultures of HeLa cells obtained by selective detachment of mitoses were treated with high concentrations of thymidine. The inhibitor was added soon after completion of cell division and rates of cell enlargement and accumulation of DNA, RNA and protein were compared for untreated and thymidine-treated cultures at various points of the cell cycle. It was found that concentrations of thymidine which in randomly growing cultures inhibit the rate of cell division by more than 90% allowed a considerable degree of DNA synthesis and did not affect the rate of accumulation of RNA and protein, when applied to cells in the G1 phase of synchronous culture. Treated and untreated cells enlarged at the same rate throughout their life cycle. The results show that concentrations of thymidine commonly employed to produce cell synchrony do not arrest the cells at the G1-S boundary, but allow slow progress through S in respect to DNA synthesis, and near-normal progress towards G2 as regards RNA and protein accumulation and cell enlargement. 相似文献

Cyclin B1 mRNA expression varies markedly through the cell cycle with its peak in G2/M and lowest level in G1. Cyclin B1 mRNA levels are also transiently reduced in HeLa cells after gamma-irradiation, coincident with the radiation-induced G2 block. In order to understand the mechanisms underlying these variations, we have measured cyclin B1 mRNA stability in HeLa cells during different phases of the cell cycle. The half-life of the mRNA measured after actinomycin D administration is 1.1-1.8 h in both early and late G1, 8 h in S and 13 h in G2/M. We therefore conclude that altered RNA stability is important in modulating cyclin B1 mRNA levels through the HeLa cell cycle. Furthermore, 3 h after irradiation of HeLa cells in S phase with 10 Gy, the half-life of cyclin B1 mRNA is reduced to 5 h; it is further reduced to 2-3 h at 14 h after irradiation. Thus, decreased stability contributes to the reduction in cyclin B1 mRNA following irradiation. 相似文献

Two different fluorescence cytochemical methods, the formaldehyde-fluorescamine (FF) method and the orthophthalaldehyde (OPT) method as well as an immunocytochemical method have been developed for the localization of spermidine and spermine. Of these three methods, the FF-method is the most easy to perform. We have studied the relationship between fluorescence intensity induced by the FF-method and cellular polyamine levels measured by HPLC in MCF-7 cells and HeLa cells. The experiments were designed to obtain different cell concentrations of polyamines. Cells grown on microscope slides in Petri-dishes were partly depleted of spermidine by two days inhibition of their ornithine decarboxylase activity using alpha-difluoromethylornithine. One hr before harvest the cells were exposed to different concentrations (0-30 microM) of spermidine. Microfluorometric results and chemical determinations of spermidine and spermine were obtained from each separate slide. The cellular total polyamine (spermidine + spermine) concentration on the slides varied between 4 and 15 nmol per mg protein (MCF-7 cells) and 5 and 26 nmol per mg protein (HeLa cells) and the corresponding microfluorometric results between 60 and 115 arbitrary units (MCF-7 cells) and 80 and 160 arbitrary units (HeLa cells). Simple regression analysis showed a good linear relationship between cellular polyamine concentration and FF-fluorescence yield. The correlation coefficient for MCF-7 cells was 0.86 and for HeLa cells 0.82, significance of the correlations was p less than or equal to 0.0001. Our results add further credence to the specificity of the FF-method and indicate that the method may be useful for microfluorometric quantitation of polyamines in situ. 相似文献

HeLa cells were made strictly dependent upon polyamine by growth in the presence of alpha-difluoromethylornithine, a specific inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase. Under these conditions, the specific activity of the cellular polyamine pools eventually equilibrated to that of exogenously supplied [14C]putrescine; however, the process was very slow, requiring half-equilibration times of about 16 h for spermidine and 28 for spermine. Thus, the distribution of radioactivity in individual polyamines became a valid measure of polyamine content only after a continuous 4-day incorporation period. When propagated in polyamine-labeled cells, two picornaviruses were found to incorporate substantially different amounts of polyamine: about 0.6% of the cell pool for human rhinovirus 14 but only 0.04% for poliovirus. This content of polyamine was sufficient to neutralize nearly 27% of the negative charge of the RNA in human rhinovirus 14 but only 1.6% in poliovirus. 相似文献
