Deoxyribonucleic acid polymerases of Rous sarcoma virus: kinetics of deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis and specificity of the products.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) polymerase(s) of Rous sarcoma virus synthesizes two principal products-single-stranded DNA in the form of a DNA:ribonucleic acid (RNA) hybrid and double-stranded DNA. All of the single-stranded product and 50% of the double-stranded product can be hybridized to 70S viral RNA. These results, in combination with data obtained by analysis of the kinetics of double-stranded DNA synthesis, indicate that the synthesis of double-stranded DNA is a sequel to the synthesis of single-stranded DNA and is dependent upon the latter for the provision of initial template.

Hydroxyquinolines inhibit ribonucleic acid-dependent deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase and inactivate Rous sarcoma virus and herpes simplex virus.
8-Hydroxyquinoline and several of its derivatives inactivate the transforming ability of Rous sarcoma virus and inhibit its ribonucleic acid-dependent deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase activity. The copper complex of these metal-binding ligands is as active as the free ligand. The activity of the 8-hydroxyquinolines is approximately 50-fold more effective than another group of metal-binding comp...

The role of ribonucleic acid (RNA) in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis with the purified DNA polymerase from the avian myeloblastosis virus has been studied. The polymerase catalyzes the synthesis of DNA in the presence of four deoxynucleoside triphosphates, Mg(2+), and a variety of RNA templates including those isolated from avian myeloblastosis, Rous sarcoma, and Rauscher leukemia viruse...
متن کاملA primer ribonucleic acid for initiation of in vitro Rous sarcarcoma virus deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis.
The nucleotide sequence of an RNA primer molecule for initiation of Rous sarcoma virus DNA synthesis in vitro has been determined. The sequence can be drawn in a cloverleaf structure typical of tRNAs with an anticodon for tryptophan. Aminoacylation of the molecule confirms that it is tRNA-Trp. The same sequence and aminoacylation results are obtained regardless of whether the RNA is isolated fr...
متن کاملThe Classic: Integration of Deoxyribonucleic Acid Specific for Rous Sarcoma Virus after Infection of Permissive and Nonpermissive Hosts
A relatively simple but stringent technique was developed to detect the integration of virus-specific DNA into the genomes of higher organisms. In both permissive (duck) and nonpermissive (mammalian) cells which normally contain no nucleotide sequences specific for Rous sarcoma virus, transformation by the virus results in the appearance of DNA specific for Rous sarcoma virus covalently integra...
متن کاملCell cycle-dependent activation of rous sarcoma virus-infected stationary chicken cells: avian leukosis virus group-specific antigens and ribonucleic acid.
Stationary chicken embryo fibroblasts exposed to Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) remained stably infected for at least 5 days, but they did not release infectious virus or become transformed until after cell division. These infected stationary cells did not contain avian leukosis virus group-specific antigens or ribonucleic acid (RNA) hybridizable to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) made by the RSV endogen...
