Programmed macromolecular synthesis in regenerating karyoplasts.

چکیده
Conditions for the preparation, purification, and maintenance of karyoplasts which could regenerate to reform whole viable cells were defined. Results of biochemical analyses of such karyoplasts at various times during regeneration indicated that a reproducible biosynthetic program was followed. Thus, an examination of the polypeptides made during regeneration by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that the pattern of radiolabeled polypeptides synthesized at each time studied was specific and was significantly different from that observed at other times during regeneration. Polypeptides associated with three major cellular fractions--nuclear, cytoskeletal-microtrabecular, and soluble--were among the most dramatically regulated molecules. Other polypeptides, such as the major components of microfilaments and intermediate filaments, were synthesized at relatively constant rates and were assembled into structures throughout regeneration. Likewise, microtubules appeared to be reformed throughout regeneration, even in the absence of identifiable centriole-associated organizing centers. Finally, analysis of DNA synthesis by autoradiography showed that, even when prepared from whole cells synchronized at the G1/S interface, karyoplasts could not begin making DNA until they had regenerated an almost complete complement of cytoplasm.

In this paper, a series of well-defined polyethylene-b-polytetrafluoroethylene diblock copolymers (PE–b– PTFEs) were prepared by a coupling reaction of hydroxyl-terminated polyethylene (PE–OH) and isocyanateterminated 1H,1H-perfluoro-1-tetradecanol (PFDO–NCO). PE–OH was prepared by the coordination chain transfer polymerization using 2,6-bis[1-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino ethyl] pyridine iron (...
متن کاملEffects of 6-thioguanine on macromolecular events in regenerating rat liver.
Regenerating rat liver was used as a semisynchronous system in which to investigate the effects of 6-thioguanine on biochemical processes occurring in discrete phases of the cell cycle. 6-Thioguanine inhibited the first wave of DNA biosynthesis in regenerating rat liver. This effect appeared to be the result of a decrease, caused by 6-thioguanine, in the induction of several enzyme activities (...
متن کاملSynthesis, Characterization and Thermal Stability Study of Styrene-based Ionomers I) Programmed Heating Experiments (10 oC/min to 500 oC)
Ionomers are generally described by copolymers having either acrylic or methacylic acid as one component and the other component is mostly either ethylene or styrene. The objective of this research was to study the thermal behaviour and stability of ionomers of styrene with some alkali metal acrylates. These materials have been synthesized by neutralization of the respective copoly...

We investigated the effects of capillin, a constituent of Artemisia monosperma, on four human tumour cell lines: colon carcinoma H729, pancreatic carcinoma MIA PaCa-2, epidermoid carcinoma of the larynx HEp-2 and lung carcinoma A549. Cells were treated with capillin to examine both the anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects, as well as the molecular mechanism underlying these effects. Cha...
