The formation of daughter nuclei and the reformation of nucleolar structures was studied after microinjection of antibodies to RNA polymerase I into dividing cultured cells (PtK2). The fate of several nucleolar proteins representing the three main structural subcomponents of the nucleolus was examined by immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. The results show that the RNA polymerase I antibodies do not interfere with normal mitotic progression or the early steps of nucleologenesis, i.e., the aggregation of nucleolar material into prenucleolar bodies. However, they inhibit the telophasic coalescence of the prenucleolar bodies into the chromosomal nucleolar organizer regions, thus preventing the formation of new nucleoli. These prenucleolar bodies show a fibrillar organization that also compositionally resembles the dense fibrillar component of interphase nucleoli. We conclude that during normal nucleologenesis the dense fibrillar component forms from preformed entities around nucleolar organizer regions, and that this association seems to be dependent on the presence of an active form of RNA polymerase I. 相似文献

A three-dimensional reconstruction of the distribution of Ag-NOR proteins in nucleoli of sympathetic neurons of a rat killed during the dark period of its light-dark cycle was compared with previously reported analyses on the three-dimensional distribution of fibrillar centers, the high-resolution localization of these proteins, and the morphometric results. The domain occupied by these proteins appeared to far exceed that of the fibrillar centers and included the dense fibrillar RNP component. In the present material this component in turn provided partial bridging between the units consisting of the fibrillar centers plus their surrounding dense fibrillar component. 相似文献

Nucleolar B-36 protein was localized ultrastructurally by immunocytochemistry with monoclonal antibody P2G3 and colloidal gold label in rabbit fibroblast cells before and during infection with herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1. In non-infected cells, labeling was sparse and restricted to the fibrillar component of the nucleoli. During the infectious cycle, B-36 protein appeared to be somewhat more abundant within the morphologically altered fibrillar component of the nucleoli. In addition, the protein was also detected in some but not all virus-induced intranuclear dense bodies. These observations suggest the presence of functionally distinct dense bodies. The association of B-36 protein with both structures was not disrupted by a hypotonic shock and detergent treatment, which suggest that these sites do not represent areas of passive intranuclear diffusion. Inhibition of protein synthesis late in infection, viral DNA replication or RNA synthesis did not alter the distribution of B-36 protein. We suggest that this protein may play a role in the increased compaction of the ribonucleoprotein fibrils induced by HSV infection, perhaps in association with some of the virus-encoded proteins which also have been detected in the nucleoli. 相似文献

We have investigated the fine spatial distribution of RNA and rRNA within the Ehrlich tumor cell nucleolus by in situ hybridization with a biotin-labeled probe and by two new strategies, the polyadenylate nucleotidyl transferase-immunogold technique and immuno-labeling with anti-RNA antibodies. Besides the presence, as expected, of RNA and rRNA in the granular component and the dense fibrillar component, we show, for the first time, significant label over all the fibrillar centers of the nucleoli. When RNA and DNA were detected simultaneously on the same sections, only the fibrillar centers were positive for both. These results throw light on the controversial subject of the precise location of transcribing rRNA genes within the nucleolus. The fibrillar centers, and not the dense fibrillar component, should thus be the site of rRNA synthesis. 相似文献

The distribution of the human ribosomal gene repeat within human Sertoli cell nucleoli was investigated with the help of DNA-DNA in situ hybridization at the light and electron microscopic level. Probes from both the transcribed part of the gene repeat and the "non-transcribed" spacer were found to hybridize predominantly to the dense fibrillar component of nucleoli. It therefore can be concluded that the dense fibrillar component of nucleoli is the major site of the intranucleolar location of the ribosomal DNA. This holds true not only for the dense fibrillar component adjacent to fibrillar centers, but also for the dense fibrillar component remote from the fibrillar centers. 相似文献

The nucleoli of normally functioning guinea-pig hepatocytes that have a nucleolonemal (strand-like) organization differ from identical nucleoli of other cells. Their nucleolonema consists as a rule of a fibrillar component with 45S RNA and is poor in granulas that contain pre-rNA molecules of an intermediate size and 28S rRNA, a dense fibrillar component with nascent rRNPs in its composition was not revealed. In hepatocytes stimulated by a 2/3 liver resection rearrangements in nucleoli were found. This brought to a conclusion that rRNA metabolism undergoes some changes. In 2.5 and 5 hours after the resection the hepatocytes' nucleoli were characteristic of a greater thickness of strands and a smaller size of vacuoles, appearance of distinct zones of the dense fibrillar component and an increased amount of RNP-granules. All these observations taken together point out at an increased synthesis and processing of rRNA at early stages of the prereplicative period. In 9 hours the character of changes in nucleoli was different: the vacuoles were considerably widened, whereas the thickness of strands that consisted of a well-expressed dense fibrillar, fibrillar and granular components was lesser. Such rearrangement points out at an increased transport of preribosomes from the nucleolus, a high level of synthesis and processing of nascent RNP-product being maintained. The changes of nucleolar RNP-component were followed by appearance of greater blocks of perinucleolar condensed chromatin, which may be connected with "cutting-off" some tissue-specific genes and initiation of functioning of the mitotic operon genes. 相似文献

The ultrastructure of nucleoli was examined in developing rat spermatocytes and spermatids, with the help of serial sections. In addition, the radioautographic reaction of nucleoli as examined in rats sacrificed 1 hr after intratesticular injection of 3H(5')-uridine and taken as an index of the rate of synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Primary spermatocytes from preleptotene to zygotene have small nucleoli typically composed of fibrillar centers, a fibrillar component, and a granular component, within which are narrow interstitial spaces. During early and mid-pachytene, nucleoli enlarge to about nine times their initial size, with the fibrillar and granular components forming an extensive network of cords--a nucleolonema--within which are wide interstitial spaces. Meanwhile, there appear structures identical to the granular component but distinct from nucleoli; they are referred to as extranucleolar granular elements. Finally, from late pachytene to the first maturation division, nucleoli undergo condensation, as shown by contraction of fibrillar centers into small clumps, while fibrillar and granular components condense and segregate from each other, with a gradual decrease in interstitial spaces. In secondary spermatocytes, nucleoli are compact and rather small, while in young spermatids they are also compact and even smaller. Nucleoli disappear in elongating spermatids. In 3H-uridine radioautographs, nucleolar label is weak in young primary spermatocytes, increases progressively during early pachytene, is strong by the end of mid pachytene, but gradually decreases during late pachytene up to the first maturation division. In secondary spermatocytes and spermatids, there is no significant nucleolar label. In conclusion, rRNA synthesis by nucleoli is low in young spermatocytes. During pachytene, while nucleoli enlarge and form a lacy nucleolonema, rRNA synthesis increases gradually to a high level by the end of mid pachytene. However, during the condensation and segregation of nucleolar components occurring from late pachytene onward, the synthesis gradually decreases and disappears. The small, compact spermatids arising from the second maturation division do not synthesize rRNA. 相似文献

The RNA distribution in Ehrlich tumour cell nucleoli has been investigated using RNase-gold method. This technique has been applied to sections of cells prepared under various fixation and embedding conditions. As expected, the specificity and intensity of labelling by gold particles have varied according to the experimental conditions used. Interestingly, however, it has been noted that the localization of gold particles does also vary and in particular within the fibrillar centre. This observation underlines the interest of assaying the RNase-gold complex under various conditions. The gold particles were particularly concentrated over the granular component and to a lesser extent, in the dense fibrillar component. In the latter constituent, it has been noted that the gold markers were preferentially localized at the edge of the dense fibrils. Surprisingly, a few gold particles have also been detected in the fibrillar centres. The weak labelling has persisted even after pepsin or DNase extraction but has completely disappeared after RNase extraction. Further, an inhibition of rRNA synthesis by a treatment with actinomycin D has not produced a significant decrease of the number of gold particles present in the fibrillar centre. These results suggest that fibrillar centres contain a small amount of RNA which would not correspond to pre-rRNA. 相似文献
