As a prerequisite to examining mRNA metabolism in compensatory renal hypertrophy, polyadenylated RNA has been purified from normal mouse kidney polysomal RNA by selection on oligo(dT)-cellulose. Poly(A)-containing RNA dissociated from polysomes by treatment with 10 mM EDTA and sedimented heterogeneously in dodecyl sulfate-containing sucrose density gradients with a mean sedimentation coefficient of 20 S. Poly(A) derived from this RNA migrated at the rate of 6-7 S RNA in dodecyl sulfate-containing 10% polyacrylamide gels. Coelectrophoresis of poly(A) labeled for 90 min with poly(A) labeled for 24 h indicated the long-term labeled poly(A) migrated faster than pulse-labeled material. Twenty percent of the cytoplasmic poly(A)-containing mRNA was not associated with the polysomes, but sedimented in the 40-80 S region (post-polysomal). Messenger RNA from the post-polysomal region had sedimentation properties similar to those of mRNA prepared from polysomes indicating post-polysomal mRNA was not degraded polysomal mRNA. Preliminary labeling experiments indicated a rapid equilibration of radioactivity between the polysomal and post-polysomal mRNA populations, suggesting the post-polysomal mRNA may consist of mRNA in transit to the polysomes.  相似文献

Recent observations have indicated that eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF)-2 and GTP or GDP normally bind to 60 S ribosomal subunits in rabbit reticulocyte lysate and that when eIF-2 alpha is phosphorylated and polypeptide chain initiation is inhibited, eIF-2 X GDP accumulates on 60 S subunits due to impaired dissociation that is normally mediated by the reversing factor (eIF-2B). Current findings now indicate that inhibition due to phosphorylation of eIF-2 alpha is mediated, at least in part, by the inability to dissociate eIF-2 X GDP from the 60 S subunit of complete initiation complexes. At the onset of inhibition, there is an accumulation of Met-tRNA(f) and eIF-2 on the polysomes, despite a marked reduction in Met-tRNA(f) bound to 40 S subunits and Met-peptidyl-tRNA bound to the polysomes. This initial effect is not associated with the formation of "half-mers" (polysomes containing an extra unpaired 40 S subunit), and the 40 S X Met-tRNA(f) complexes, though reduced, still sediment at 43 S. When inhibition is maximal and the polysomes are largely disaggregated, there is an accumulation of 48 S complexes consisting of a 40 S subunit and Met-tRNA(f) bound to globin mRNA as well as small polysomal half-mers, such that residual protein synthesis occurs to about the same degree on "1 1/2"s and "2 1/2"s as on mono-, di-, and triribosomes. Exogenous eIF-2B increases protein synthesis on mono-, di-, and triribosomes and decreases that on half-mers. This is associated with reduced binding of Met-tRNA(f) and eIF-2 to ribosomal particles sedimenting at 80 S and greater and a shift from 48 S to 43 S complexes. These results suggest that eIF-2B must normally promote dissociation of eIF-2 X GDP from the 60 S subunit of complete initiation complexes before they can elongate but cannot when eIF-2 alpha is phosphorylated, resulting in the accumulation of these complexes, some of which dissociate into Met-tRNA(f) X 40 S X mRNA and 60 S X eIF-2 X GDP.  相似文献

Mammalian target‐of‐rapamycin (mTOR) triggers S6 kinase (S6K) activation to phosphorylate targets linked to translation in response to energy, nutrients, and hormones. Pathways of TOR activation in plants remain unknown. Here, we uncover the role of the phytohormone auxin in TOR signalling activation and reinitiation after upstream open reading frame (uORF) translation, which in plants is dependent on translation initiation factor eIF3h. We show that auxin triggers TOR activation followed by S6K1 phosphorylation at T449 and efficient loading of uORF‐mRNAs onto polysomes in a manner sensitive to the TOR inhibitor Torin‐1. Torin‐1 mediates recruitment of inactive S6K1 to polysomes, while auxin triggers S6K1 dissociation and recruitment of activated TOR instead. A putative target of TOR/S6K1—eIF3h—is phosphorylated and detected in polysomes in response to auxin. In TOR‐deficient plants, polysomes were prebound by inactive S6K1, and loading of uORF‐mRNAs and eIF3h was impaired. Transient expression of eIF3h‐S178D in plant protoplasts specifically upregulates uORF‐mRNA translation. We propose that TOR functions in polysomes to maintain the active S6K1 (and thus eIF3h) phosphorylation status that is critical for translation reinitiation.  相似文献

Using dissociation in 0.8 M KCl, it was established that in freshly excised Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) tuber slices less than 8% of the ribosomes were in polysomes. The first hour of aging in water was the period of most rapid polysome accumulation; over 32% of the ribosomes carried nascent polypeptide chains at the end of this time. Thereafter polysome accumulation continued to increase, but more gradually. While synthesis of high-molecular-weight RNA (presumed mRNA) was inhibited more than 95% by -amanitin during the first hour of aging, the inhibitor had no effect on polysome formation. As determined by [3H]polyuridylic acid hybridization, unaged cells contained polyadenylated RNA with a size range of 6–30S. The amount of polyadenylated RNA did not change during the first hour of aging. In control cells in water the in-vivo rate of protein synthesis increased exponentially during the first 4 h of aging without a comparable increase in polysomes. In -amanitintreated tissues a similar increase in protein synthesis was not observed despite the presence of near control levels of polysomes. It is suggested that early polysome formation depends on stored mRNA. Inhibition of mRNA synthesis by -amanitin prevents the normal development of an enhanced rate of protein synthesis which is not directly related to numbers of ribosomes in polysomes.Abbreviations Poly(A) polyadenylic acid - Poly(A)+RNA polyadenylated RNA - Poly(U) polyuridylic acid - TCA trichloroacetic acid  相似文献

We have measured the absolute molar rates of synthesis, accumulation, and turnover of blowfly salivary gland heterodisperse RNA. Twelve- and 84-hr-stage third-instar Calliphora erythrocephala larvae were injected with [3H]adenosine, and its flow into glandular ATP, heterodisperse RNA, and polyadenylated RNA was each quantitated over a 360-min time course. The results of these experiments indicate that at least 80% of the newly synthesized heterodisperse RNA mass is a >28 S nuclear species whose average first-order half-life is approximately 20 min. The remaining 20% of the heterodisperse RNA has a 6–28 S size distribution, accumulates in the cytoplasm, and is associated with functional polysomes. The average first-order half-life of this more stable species is 20–25 hr. In addition, we have independently quantitated by optical methods the developmental change in the content of polysome-associated mRNA. The mRNA in these studies also has an average first-order half-life of 25 hr and accounts for 25–55% of the mRNA mass predicted by the incorporation-kinetic analysis of the pulse-labeled heterodisperse RNA. Despite the increased polyteny of the older stage glands, the rates of synthesis and accumulation of each of the individual heterodisperse RNA classes are the same at the 12- and 84-hr stages. Collectively, these results demonstrate that salivary gland functional specialization results from the accumulation of long-lived mRNA and not from changes in the overall rate of mRNA synthesis.  相似文献

Isolation of rat liver albumin messenger RNA.   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Rat liver albumin messenger RNA has been purified to apparent homogeneity by means of polysome immunoprecipitation and poly(U)-Sepharose affinity chromatography. Specific polysomes synthesizing albumin were separated from total liver polysomes through a double antibody technique which allowed isolation of a specific immunoprecipitate. The albumin-polysome immunoprecipitate was dissolved in detergent and the polysomal RNA was separated from protein by sucrose gradient centrifugation. Albumin mRNA was then separated from ribosomal RNA by affinity chromatography through the binding of poly(U)-Sepharose to the polyadenylate 3' terminus of the mRNA. Pure albumin mRNA migrated as an 18 S peak on 85% formamide-containing linear sucrose gradients and as a 22 S peak on 2.5% polyacrylamide gels in sodium dodecyl sulfate. It coded for the translation of authentic liver albumin when added to a heterologous protein-synthesizing cell-free system derived from either rabbit reticulocyte lysates or wheat germ extracts. Translation analysis in reticulocyte lysates indicated that albumin polysomes were purified approximately 9-fold from total liver polysomes, and that albumin mRNA was purified approximately 74-fold from albumin polysomal RNA. The total translation product in the mRNA-dependent wheat germ system, upon addition of the pure mRNA, was identified as authentic albumin by means of gel electrophoresis and tryptic peptide chromatography.  相似文献

Hydrocortisone acetate injected into pseudopregnant rabbits induced casein synthesis and a parallel accumulation of casein mRNA. These effects were not accompanied by any enrichment of total RNA in the mammary cell. Hydrocortisone acetate did not favour the attachment of polysomes to endoplasmic reticulum. Casein mRNA concentration was enhanced in free and membrane-bound polysomes. After long treatments, the concentration of casein mRNA reached a plateau in membrane bound polysomes whereas it continued to be accumulated in free polysomes, suggesting that a substantial part of casein synthesis is then carried out by free polysomes. Progesterone injected with high doses of prolactin was unable to prevent the stimulatory action of prolactin on the synthesis of casein, the accumulation of casein mRNA and mammary gland growth, as judged by DNA content. By contrast, the increase in the total RNA content of mammary gland was still significantly reduced by progesterone. In addition, progesterone inhibited almost completely the formation of membrane-bound polysomes and the anchorage of casein mRNA to endoplasmic reticulum. From these data, it was concluded that the formation of the endoplasmic reticulum is not a prerequisite for the initiation of casein synthesis. Glucocorticoids do not play a major role in the formation of the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golai apparatus and in the binding of casein synthesizing polysomes to membranes. Progesteronne is capable of inhibiting preferentially and gradually the stimulation of cellular functions requiring the most potent prolactin stimulation.  相似文献

The cytoplasm of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)-infected BHK cells has been separated into a fraction containing the membrane-bound polysomes and the remaining supernatant fraction. Total poly(A)-containing RNA was isolated from each fraction and purified. A 17S class of VSV mRNA was found associated almost exclusively with the membrane-bound polysomes, whereas 14,5S and 12S RNAs were found mostly in the postmembrane cytoplasmic supernatant. Poly(A)-containing VSV RNA synthesized in vitro by purified virus was resolved into the same size classes. The individual RNA fractions isolated from VSV-infected cells or synthesized in vitro were translated in cell-free extracts of wheat germ, and their polypeptide products were compared by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. The corresponding in vivo and in vitro RNA fractions qualitatively direct the synthesis of the same viral polypeptides and therefore appear to contain the same mRNA species. By tryptic peptide analysis of their translation products, the in vivo VSV mRNA species have been identified. The 17S RNA, which is compartmentalized on membrane-bound polysomes, codes for a protein of molecular weight 63,000 (P-63) which is most probably a nonglycosylated form of the viral glycoprotein, G. Of the viral RNA species present in the remaining cytoplasmic supernatant, the 14.5S RNA codes almost exclusively for the N protein, whereas the 12S RNA codes predominantly for both the NS and M proteins of the virion.  相似文献

Messenger ribonucleoprotein particles in developing sea urchin embryos   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Messenger RNA entering polysomes during early development of the sea urchin embryo consists of both oogenetic and newly transcribed sequences. Newly transcribed mRNA enters polysomes rapidly while oogenetic mRNA enters polysomes from a pool of stable, nontranslatable messenger ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs) derived from the unfertilized egg. Protein content may relate to differences in the regulation of newly transcribed and oogenetic mRNAs. Oogenetic poly(A)+ mRNA was found to be present in both polysomal and subpolysomal fractions of cleavage stage and early blastula stage embryos. This mRNA was found to be present in subpolysomal mRNPs with a density of 1.45 g/cm3 in Cs2SO4. Poly(A)+ mRNPs released from polysomes of embryos cultured in the presence of actinomycin D sedimented in a broad peak centered at 55 S and contained RNA of 21 S. The density of these particles was sensitive to the method of release; puromycin-released mRNPs had a density of 1.45 g/cm3, while EDTA caused a shift in density to 1.55 g/cm3, indicating a partial loss of protein. The results with newly synthesized mRNAs contrast sharply. Newly transcribed mRNA in subpolysomal mRNPs had a density of 1.55–1.66 g/cm3, a density approaching that of deproteinized RNA. Messenger RNA released from polysomes either by EDTA or puromycin was examined to determine the possible existence of polysomal mRNPs. When [3H]uridine-labeled mRNA was released from late cleavage stage embryo polysomes by either technique, and centrifuged on sucrose gradients, two broad peaks were found. One peak centered at 30 S contained 21 S mRNA while the other at 15 S contained 9 S histone mRNA. When these fractions were fixed with formaldehyde, they banded on Cs2SO4 gradients at a density of 1.60–1.66 g/cm3, very similar to that of pure RNA. We conclude that the newly transcribed mRNA may be present in stable mRNPs containing up to 10% protein in either subpolysomal or polysomal fractions. These mRNPs are clearly distinguishable from the protein-rich mRNPs containing oogenetic mRNAs.  相似文献

Neuroblastoma cytoplasm was fractionated on sucrose gradients into polysomes (>90 S) and non-polysomal particles (<90 S). Purified RNA from these fractions was translated using a wheat germ lysate and translation products were compared by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Non-polysomal messenger RNA directed the synthesis of a specific subset of polysomal mRNA translation products. Careful comparison of individual translation products demonstrated that specific mRNAs were not randomly distributed between polysomes and the non-polysomal fraction.Fractionation of both RNA populations into polyadenylated (poly(A)+) and non-adenylated (poly(A)?) species indicated that specific, abundant non-polysomal mRNAs were not less adenylated than their polysomal counterparts. Furthermore, comparison of translation products from assays of subsaturating and supersaturating RNA concentrations demonstrated that no simple correlation could be made between the relative initiation efficiency of a specific mRNA and its distribution between polysomes and non-polysomal particles.  相似文献

The role of the mRNA-binding protein human antigen R (HuR) in stabilization and translation of AU-rich elements (ARE) containing mRNAs is well established. However, the trafficking of HuR and bound mRNA cargo, which comprises a fundamental requirement for the aforementioned HuR functions is only poorly understood. By administering different cytoskeletal inhibitors, we found that the protein kinase Cδ (PKCδ)-triggered accumulation of cytoplasmic HuR by Angiotensin II (AngII) is an actin-myosin driven process functionally relevant for stabilization of ARE-bearing mRNAs. Furthermore, we show that the AngII-induced recruitment of HuR and its bound mRNA from ribonucleoprotein particles to free and cytoskeleton bound polysomes strongly depended on an intact actomyosin cytoskeleton. In addition, HuR allocation to free and cytoskeletal bound polysomes is highly sensitive toward RNase and PPtase and structurally depends on serine 318 (S318) located within the C-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM3). Conversely, the trafficking of the phosphomimetic HuRS318D, mimicking HuR phosphorylation at S318 by the PKCδ remained PPtase resistant. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments with truncated HuR proteins revealed that the stimulus-induced association of HuR with myosin IIA is strictly RNA dependent and mediated via the RRM3. Our data implicate a microfilament dependent transport of HuR, which is relevant for stimulus-induced targeting of ARE-bearing mRNAs from translational inactive ribonucleoprotein particles to polysomes.  相似文献

Total poly(A)-containing RNA in different polysomal and supernatant cytoplasmic fractions was analysed after pulse-labelling in dividing myoblasts and fused myotubes. In particular, the peak of 26 S RNA (putative messenger for the large subunit of myosin) is located in a light region of the gradient coinciding with the monosome-trisome fractions prior to fusion, and is found in the heavy polysomes only after fusion. These heavy polysomes are free (i.e. not membrane bound). Treatment of the light part of the polysome gradient with EDTA shows that the 26 S RNA found here does not exist as part of a polysomal complex, but is present as a ribonucleoprotein particle cosedimenting in this region. Previous experiments had indicated that in actively dividing myoblasts 26 S RNA has a relatively short half-life but that it becomes “stable” after the cessation of mitosis just prior to fusion. RNA chase experiments performed in the present study show that the “short-lived” 26 S RNA from dividing myoblasts, which is present as a ribonucleoprotein particle, does not enter the heavy polysomes. In contrast, the more stable 26 S RNA also initially present as a ribonucleoprotein, just prior to and in the early stages of fusion, can be shown by chase experiments to enter the heavy polysomes later in fusion. Hence accumulation of 26 S RNA seems to precede its activation as a messenger.  相似文献

Kinetics of incorporation of (3H) uridine into cytoplasmic RNA fractions of rat liver is investigated. The fractions include free and membrane bound polysomes, rough membranes sedimenting with mitochondria and free cytoplasmic RNA particles. (1) Poly(A) containing RNA, isolated by oligo-dT cellulose, amounts to 0.4% of the total RNA in the homogenate, 0.5% in bound polysomes, 3.4% in free polysomes and 16% in free cytoplasmic RNA particles. (2) The rate of (3H) uridine incorporation into RNA lacking poly(A) proceeds uniformly in all subcellular fractions except for free cytoplasmic RNA particles, which accumulate negligible amounts of radioactivity. (3) The initial labelling of RNA containing poly(A) is most active in free cytoplasmic RNA particles supporting their identity as mRNA en route to polysomes. The initial specific radioactivities decrease in the following order: homogenate, bound polysomes, rough membranes sedimenting with mitochondria, free polysomes. The data suggest that mRNA is supplied to free and membrane-bound polysomes via different routes. The kinetic analysis indicates that free cytoplasmic RNA particles may be a precursor of mRNA of free polysomes rather than that of bound polysomes. (4) The kinetic differences of free and membrane bound polysomes are also demonstrated by comparing the radioactivity of RNA containing poly(A) to the total radioactivity at various incorporation times. In bound polysomes this decreases from 31% at 1 h to 10% at 25 h, whereas in free polysomes the corresponding ratio increases from 10 to 13%. RNA containing poly(A) of free cytoplasmic RNA particles represents 64% of the total radioactivity throughout the experiment.  相似文献

Rana pipiens tyrosinase mRNA was isolated from Stage 22 (tailfin circulation) embryos by indirect immunoprecipitation of embryonic polysomes using highly specific rabbit anti-tyrosinase and goat-(anti-rabbit) immunoglobulins. Analysis on sucrose gradients indicated that anti-tyrosinase bound specifically to embryonic polysomes of the 300-350 S class coincident with the location of nascent tyrosinase enzyme activity and tyrosinase mRNA. These same anti-tyrosinase-bound polysomes were fully immunoprecipitated by the addition of goat-(anti-rabbit) IgG. Poly(A+) RNA was obtained from phenol-extracted antibody. polysome complexes by sequential passage over oligo(dT)-cellulose. The final purification of tyrosinase mRNA was achieved by preparative sucrose gradient fractionation. Tyrosinase mRNA sedimented as a single 13 S peak in 5-30% sucrose gradients and tracked on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels as a single band of 4.5 X 10(5) Da (1275 nucleotides). When assayed in a cell-free translation system, this mRNA directed the synthesis of a single 35,000-Da protein which co-migrated with native tyrosinase on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels and which was greater than 98% immunoprecipitable by anti-tyrosinase immunoglobulin. Final purification was 4103-fold over the starting polysomal RNA.  相似文献

Protein synthesis rates in Xenopus laevis oocytes from stage 1 through stage 6 were measured. In addition, the translational efficiencies, total RNA contents, and percentages of ribosomes in polysomes in growing oocytes at several stages were determined. Stage 1 oocytes synthesize protein at a mean rate of 0.18 ng hr−1 while stage 6 oocytes make protein at a rate of 22.8 ng hr−1. Polysomes from growing and full-grown oocytes sedimented in a sucrose gradient with a peak value of 300 S, corresponding to a weight-average packing density of 10 ribosomes per mRNA. Ribosome transit times of endogenous mRNAs were essentially unchanged at all stages examined. While the oocyte's total ribosomal RNA content was observed to increase about 115-fold during oogenesis, the percentage of ribosomes in polysomes remained constant at approximately 2%. Taken together, the data suggest that the 127-fold increase in protein synthesis which occurs during Xenopus oogenesis involves the progressive recruitment onto polysomes of mRNA from the maternal stockpile.  相似文献

Polysomes from the salivary glands of Chironomus tentans were investigated to determine whether Balbiani ring 75S RNA is incorporated into polysomal structures, and thus probably acts as messenger RNA. A new extraction technique for obtaining ribonucleoproteins was applied that gives a high yield of polysomes with only moderate degradation of the cytoplasmic, high molecular weight RNA. The polysomes sedimented in a broad region (200-2,000S) with a peak value of about 700S, which suggested that they were partly of very large sizes. This was confirmed by visualization of the polysomes in the electron microscope: 400S polysomes contained mainly 11-16 ribosomes, and 1,500S polysomes about 60 ribosomes per polysome. However, polysomes containing 100 or more ribosomes were also observed. It was further established that most of the cytoplasmic 75S RNA was located in polysomes, preferentially in the most rapidly sedimenting ones. From the available information on Balbiani ring RNA in cytoplasm and the present demonstration of 75S RNA molecules in polysomes, it was concluded that at least some Balbiani ring RNA, generated as 75S RNA within the Balbiani rings, eventually enters polysomes without being measurably changed in size. The present information on the potential amino acid coding sequences in 75S RNA is discussed in relation to the large size of the polysomes observed.  相似文献

Using the presence of poly(A) tracts as a marker for mRNA, we have examined the distribution of this class of RNA between polysomes and free RNP particles. This has been done in mature oocytes and in embryos aged for various times from fertilization through to hatching of a larva. The proportion of ribosomes that are in polysomes to those that are not has been calculated. In mature oocytes, 58% of the poly(A)+ RNA and 72% of the ribosomes are not in polysomes. By 1 hr, this drops to 51% of the poly(A)+ RNA and 48% of the ribosomes. By 7 hr, a plateau is reached: 30% of each are not in polysomes. The poly(A)+ RNA in the cytoplasm of oocytes and 1-hr embryos is found in particles with an average size of 50S and a range of 30–70S. The poly(A)+ RNA ranges in size from 7 to 40S, with an average size of 22S. The polyA from this RNA is 50–200 nucleotides long with an average of 115 nucleotides. These data have allowed us to calculate that 1–2% of the total RNA is poly(A)+ RNA.  相似文献

Glycoprotein mRNA (G mRNA) of vesicular stomatitis virus is synthesized in the cytosol fraction of infected HeLa cells. Shortly after synthesis, this mRNA associates with 40S ribosomal subunits and subsequently forms 80S monosomes in the cytosol fraction. The bulk of labeled G mRNA is then found in polysomes associated with the membrane, without first appearing in the subunit or monomer pool of the membrane-bound fraction. Inhibition of the initiation of protein synthesis by pactamycin or muconomycin A blocks entry of newly synthesized G m RNA into membrane-bound polysomes. Under these circumstances, labeled G mRNA accumulates into the cytosol. Inhibition of the elongation of protein synthesis by cucloheximide, however, allows entry of 60 percent of newly synthesized G mRNA into membrane-bound polysomes. Furthermore, prelabeled G mRNA associated with membrane-bound polysomes is released from the membrane fraction in vivo by pactamycin or mucomycon A and in vitro by 1mM puromycin - 0.5 M KCI. This release is not due to nonspecific effects of the drugs. These results demonstrate that association of G mRNA with membrane-bound polysomes is dependent upon polysome formation and initiation of protein synthesis. Therefore, direct association of the 3' end of G mRNA with the membrane does not appear to be the initial event in the formation of membrane-bound polysomes.  相似文献

HeLa cells propagated in spinner culture for 3-4 days without replenishing medium or serum progressively decrease the amount of mRNA and rRNA in polysomes, as well as the elongation rate. Treatment of these cells with low doses of cycloheximide shifts at least two thirds of the subpolysomal ribosomal particles into polysomes, indicating that the rate of ribosome attachment limits translation in these cells. Transfer of serum factor-depleted cells to fresh medium containing 10% calf serum likewise results in an extensive translocation of mRNA and rRNA into polysomes. Polysome absorbance profiles and sizes suggest that serum stimulation causes these changes by enhancing initiation rate. Newly recruited mRNAs derive from both subpolysomal translocation and recent nuclear RNA export, and contain a greater proportion of poly(A)-deficient mRNA molecules than the pre-stimulated polysomal mRNA population. Kinetic measurements show that these events occur principally within 20 min after serum addition, suggesting rapid modifications of preexisting components are involved. The phosphorylation kinetics of ribosomal protein S6, which closely parallel the alterations in translational activity, suggest that this modification may influence ribosome function.  相似文献

Polysomes were prepared from Sindbis virus-infected BHK cells. The major species of RNA in these polysomes was identified as 26S RNA (interjacent RNA) by (i) disrupting the polysomes with EDTA; (ii) treating the infected cells with puromycin; and (iii) isolating polysomes from cells infected with a temperature-sensitive mutant that does not form nucleocapsids. Small amounts of 42S RNA and 33S RNA were also found in polysomes.  相似文献
