The location of SV40 specific sequences in the heterogeneous nuclear RNA of transformed mouse cells. 1979

J N Wood

Rapidly labelled nuclear RNA from an SV40 transformed mouse 3T3 line was isolated, and different molecular size classes pooled. The fractions were treated with Ehrlich ascites exonuclease III for various lengths of time, and the digestion of the 3' ends of the RNA measured by the appearance of TCA-soluble material. The resulting partially degraded RNA populations were then hybridised to SV40 DNA. The data suggest that a high proportion of the viral specific sequences are located near the 3' ends of heterogeneous nuclear RNA.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007668 Kidney Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations. Kidneys
D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.
