Direct evidence that ribosome bound RNA-dependent RNA polymerase does not play a role in globin messenger RNA replication.

چکیده
The radioactively labelled product of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase+ from ribosomes of immature chicken erythrocytes was tested for the presence of newly replicated globin mRNA using unlabelled globin complementary DNA. No radioactively labelled globin mRNA sequences were found in the product, providing direct confirmation that this RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is not involved in globin mRNA amplification.

Tissue-specific transcription of the globin gene in isolated chromatin.
RNA was transcribed from chrmation from mouse fetal liver or brain, by use of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase of Escherichia coli. Globin messenger RNA sequences in the transcript were measured with complementary DNA copied from globin messenger RNA with RNA-dependent DNA polymerase. Globin messenger RNA sequences were found in RNA newly transcribed from chromatin from erythropoietic tissue but no...

The synthesis of DNA complementary to rabbit globin mRNA by the enzyme RNA-directed DNA polymerase (from avian myeloblastosis virus) has been studied. The reaction is dependent on mRNA as template, oligo(dT) as primer, and the four deoxynucleoside triphosphates as substrates. The 28 S, 18 S, and 4 S RNA are not effective templates; oligo(dG), oligo(dC), and oligo(dA) are not effective primers. ...
متن کاملCell-free transcription of mammalian chromatin. Quantitative measurement of newly synthesized globin messenger RNA sequences.
Transcription of globin mRNA sequences from rabbit marrow chromatin was detected by hybridization with globin complementary DNA (cDNA). The presence of newly synthesized RNA in cDNA-globin mRNA hybrids isolated by Cs2SO4 density equilibrium centrifugation required the addition of both rabbit marrow chromatin and DNA-dependent RNA polymerase (Escherichia coli) to the transcription reaction. No g...
متن کاملEvidence for direct involvement of T7 RNA polymerase bacteriophage DNA replication.
Experiments in a number of different systems have suggested that the initiation of DNA replication is often dependent upon transcription at the origin of replication. During infection with bacteriophage T7, the T7 genome is transcribed first by the bacterial RNA polymerase and then by a phage-coded enzyme, the product of gene 1. The bacterial enzyme does not appear to be directly involved in th...
متن کاملCoupling of transcription and replication machineries in λ DNA replication initiation: evidence for direct interaction of Escherichia coli RNA polymerase and the λO protein
Transcription proceeding downstream of the λ phage replication origin was previously shown to support initial steps of the λ primosome assembly in vitro and to regulate frequency and directionality of λ DNA replication in vivo. In this report, the data are presented indicating that the RNA polymerase β subunit makes a direct contact with the λO protein, a replication initiator of λ phage. These...
