cDNA synthesized on the bovine leukemia virus RNA template has been cloned in the pBR322 Pst I site. Colony hybridization with BLV RNA fragments and oligo (dT) has revealed a clone with cDNA insert containing 660 3'-terminal nucleotides of the BLV genome. The nucleotide sequence of the insert corresponding to U3 and R regions of the long terminal repeats (LTR) of viral genome has been determined. BLV U3, like U3 of other retroviruses, presumably contains promoter. The unusually long R region (about 230 bp), a certain homology with ATLV U3-R and some other structural features allow to group BLV LTR together with ATLV LTR in a separate class of retroviral LTR. 相似文献

In the presence of actinomycin D or a combination of actinomycin D and either camptothecin or alpha-amanatin. Aedes albopictus cells synthesize a variety of single stranded RNA species. These actinomycin D resistant species are ethidium bromide sensitive and they are present in the cell cytoplasm in an RNase resistant structure which has the sedimentation and buoyant density characteristics of mitochondria. Twelve actinomycin D insensitive RNA species can be detected by electrophoresis in 7M urea and 11 of these bind to oligo(dT)-cellulose. An identical set of oligo(dT)-cellulose binding RNA species is obtained when A. albopictus cells are labeled in the presence of camptothecin alone. The actinomycin D insensitive RNA species which bind to oligo(dT)-cellulose hybridize to mitochondrial DNA. These data indicate that the actinomycin D insensitive RNA species have a mitochondrial origin and are not associated with the replication of an inapparent contaminating virus. 相似文献

Viral messengers were used to select and purify prosomes and prosomal RNA from subribosomal fractions of HeLa cells and mouse erythroblasts. Adenovirus mRNA immobilized on oligo(dT)-cellulose and tobacco mosaic virus RNA (TMV) sedimenting in sucrose gradients associated strongly with prosomes at high salt conditions forming intermolecular RNA-RNA hybrids between prosomal RNA and viral RNA. Hybrid selection of small cytoplasmic RNAs with immobilized TMV-RNA revealed a RNA species migrating at the same position as prosomal RNA. The possible existence of a box-like sequence involved in hybridization will be discussed. 相似文献

The biophysical and biochemical properties of the virus particles released by guinea pig embryo cells treated with 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BUdR) have been compared to those of the B-type mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) and the C-type Rauscher murine leukemia virus. The high-molecular-weight (60 to 70S) RNA of the BUdR-induced guinea pig virus (GPV) has a molecular weight of 8 X 106 when measred by mixed agarose polyacylamide gel electrophoresis. The virus particles isolated from the tissue culture medium of BUdR-induced guniea pig cells have the following properties in common with MMTV: (i) a buoyant density of 1.18 g/ml in sucrose and 1.21 g/ml in CsCl, and (ii) a DNA polymerase that prefers Mg2+ over Mn2+ in an assay using the synthetic template poly(rC):oligo(dG). No nucleic acid sequence homology between GPV RNA and the viral RNAs of the MMTV, murine leukemia virus, hamster sarcoma virus, or Mason-Pfizer monkey virus could be observed in a competition hybridization assay using the radioactive-labeled GPV 60 to 70S RNA. By this same competition by hybridization assay the frequency of GPV proviral sequences was estimated to be at least 83 per haploid cellular genome of guniea pig cells. No nucleic acid sequences related to be GPV RNA were detected in the DNA of normal tissues of mice, rats, cats, dogs, baboons, or humans by direct RNA-DNA hybridization using radioactive GPV60 to 70S RNA. 相似文献

The Moloney murine sarcoma-leukemia virus [M-MSV (MuLV)], propagated at high multiplicity of infection (MOI), was demonstrated previously to contain a native genome mass of 4 X 10(6) daltons as contrasted to a mass of 7 X 10(6) daltons for Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV). The 4 X 10(6)-dalton classof RNA from M-MSV (MuLV) was examined for base sequence homology with DNA complementary to the 7 X 10(6)-dalton M-MuLV RNA genome. Approximately 86% of the M-MSV (MuLV) was protected from RNase digestion by hybridization, whereas 95% of M-MuLV was protected under identical conditions. These results indicate that the small RNA class of high-MOI M-MSV (MuLV) contains little (perhaps 10%) genetic information not present in M-MuLV. Virtually all of the 1.8 X 10(6)-dalton subunits of M-MSV (MuLV) RNA contained regions of poly(A) since 94% of the RNA bound to oligo(dT) cellulose in 0.5 M KCl. This suggests that the formation of the 1.8 X 10(6)-dalton subunits occurs before their packaging into virions and does not result from hydrolysis of intact 3.5 X 10(6)-dalton subunits by a virion-associated nuclease. 相似文献

POLYADENYLIC ACID-CONTAINING RNA FROM RAT BRAIN 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
A portion of rat brain RNA contains poly(A) sequences and binds to oligo(dT)-cellulose. Young rats have a greater amount of brain RNA which contains poly(A) than do adult animals. The length of the poly(A) sequence from the brain RNA of young animals was shown to be somewhat longer than that from the RNA of adults. The RNA which bound to the oligo(dT)-cellulose was found to be large and heterogeneous, and to be almost free of ribosomal or of small mol. wt. RNAs. When the polysomal RNA which bound to the oligo(dT)-cellulose columns and that which did not were used to prime a cell-free protein synthesizing system there was a noticeable difference in their‘messenger’activity; the RNA which bound to the oligo(dT)-cellulose was much more active than the unbound material. However, in the case of the nuclear RNA there was not as great a difference between the material which was bound and that which was not bound. 相似文献

Kirsten murine sarcoma-leukemia virus (Ki-MSV[MLV]) was found to contain less RNase H per unit of viral DNA polymerase than avian Rous sarcoma virus (RSV). Upon purification by chromatography on Sephadex G-200 and subsequent glycerol gradient sedimentation the avian DNA polymerase was obtained in association with a constant amount of RNase H. By contrast, equally purified DNA polymerase of Ki-MSV(MLV) and Moloney [Mo-MSV(MLV)] lacked detectable RNase H if assayed with two homopolymer and phage fd DNA-RNA hybrids as substrates. On the basis of picomoles of nucleotides turned over, the ratio of RNase H to purified avian DNA polymerase was 1:20 and that of RNase H to purified murine DNA polymerase ranged between <1:2,800 and 5,000. Based on the same activity with poly (A).oligo(dT) the activity of the murine DNA polymerase was 6 to 60 times lower than that of the avian enzyme with denatured salmon DNA template or with avian or murine viral RNA templates assayed under various conditions (native, heat-dissociated, with or without oligo(dT) and oligo(dC) and at different template enzyme ratios). The template activities of Ki-MSV(MLV) RNA and RSV RNA were enhanced uniformly by oligo(dT) but oligo(dC) was much less efficient in enhancing the activity of MSV(MLV) RNA than that of RSV RNA. It was concluded that the purified DNA polymerase of Ki-MSV(MLV) differs from that of Rous sarcoma virus in its lack of detectable RNase H and in its low capacity to transcribe viral RNA and denatured salmon DNA. Some aspects of these results are discussed. 相似文献

Factor D, a protein purified from rabbit liver that selectively enhances traversal of template oligodeoxythymidine tracts by diverse DNA polymerases, was examined for the sequence specificity of its binding to DNA. Terminally [32P]-labeled oligomers with the sequence 5'-d[AATTC(N)16G]-3', N being dT, dA, dG, or dC, were interacted with purified factor D and examined for the formation of protein-DNA complexes that exhibit retarded electrophoretic mobility under nondenaturing conditions. Whereas significant binding of factor D to 5'-d[AATTC(T)16G]-3' is detected, there is no discernable association between this protein and oligomers that contain 16 contiguous moieties of dG, dA, or dC. Furthermore, factor D does not form detectable complexes with the duplexes oligo(dA).oligo(dT) or poly(dA).poly(dT). The preferential interaction of factor D with single-stranded poly(dT) is confirmed by experiments in which the polymerase-enhancing activity of this protein is protected by poly(dT) against heat inactivation two- and four-fold more efficiently than by poly(dA) or poly(dA).poly(dT), respectively. 相似文献

We have constructed a cDNA library for the trimethylguanosine-capped small RNAs (sRNAs) in the acellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum. Capped sRNAs were purified from total cellular RNA of vegetative microplasmodia by preparative immunoprecipitation with anti-trimethylguanosine antibody. The purified RNA was analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Approx. eleven different capped sRNAs were observed with a size range of 70-204 nucleotides (nt). Based on their approximate sizes, the presence of trimethylguanosine cap, and the presence of a lupus type-Sm antigen, molecules U1-U7 (excluding U3) were identified. Further confirmation of the identity of molecule U1a was established by Northern hybridization, U4a by colony hybridization, and U6 and U7a by direct chemical sequence analysis. Purified capped sRNAs were tailed with oligo(A), and inserted into oligo(dT)-tailed plasmid pCDV1. The cDNAs were used to transform Escherichia coli strain HB101. Approx. 1.9 X 10(5) ampicillin-resistant (ApR) transformants were obtained per microgram of tailed sRNA. Dot-blot hybridization, using Physarum RNA precipitated with anti-cap antibody as a probe, indicated that approx. 94% of the ApR colonies contained recombinant DNAs. The library was screened by colony hybridization using heterologous sRNA probes. Clones hybridizing with heterologous sRNAs U1, U2, U4 and U7 were each represented in the library in approximately the same frequency as their relative abundance in the Physarum sRNA population they were derived from. The insert of one Physarum U4 clone was sequenced and was found to have 57.1% homology with nt 1-91 of the published sequence for rat U4 RNA. A 12-nt 'functional' subdomain of the rat U4 molecule was 83.3% conserved in Physarum U4. 相似文献
