Cell-free translation of messenger RNA for human bisphosphoglyceromutase. 1984

A Dubart, and P H Romeo, and A Tsapis, and M Goossens, and R Rosa, and J Rosa

mRNAs prepared from different human tissues were translated in a cell-free reticulocyte lysate system and, when present, the neosynthesized bisphosphoglyceromutase ( BPGM ) was specifically isolated by immunoprecipitation and analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Analysis of the translation products showed that bisphosphoglyceromutase was synthesized in vitro with its mature molecular weight and messenger RNA specifying the synthesis of BPGM exhibited a sedimentation coefficient of 12 S in human reticulocytes. This synthesis seems to be highly tissue specific since we could not evidence any synthesis of this enzyme using mRNA obtained from non erythroid tissue. The BPGM synthesis represents 0.1% of the total neosynthesized non heme proteins in human reticulocyte and ten times less (0.01%) in human fetal liver.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008099 Liver A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances. Livers
D010770 Phosphotransferases A rather large group of enzymes comprising not only those transferring phosphate but also diphosphate, nucleotidyl residues, and others. These have also been subdivided according to the acceptor group. (From Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) EC 2.7. Kinases,Phosphotransferase,Phosphotransferases, ATP,Transphosphorylase,Transphosphorylases,Kinase,ATP Phosphotransferases
D011061 Poly A A group of adenine ribonucleotides in which the phosphate residues of each adenine ribonucleotide act as bridges in forming diester linkages between the ribose moieties. Adenine Polynucleotides,Polyadenylic Acids,Poly(rA),Polynucleotides, Adenine
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D012156 Reticulocytes Immature ERYTHROCYTES. In humans, these are ERYTHROID CELLS that have just undergone extrusion of their CELL NUCLEUS. They still contain some organelles that gradually decrease in number as the cells mature. RIBOSOMES are last to disappear. Certain staining techniques cause components of the ribosomes to precipitate into characteristic "reticulum" (not the same as the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM), hence the name reticulocytes. Reticulocyte
D001731 Bisphosphoglycerate Mutase An enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of phosphate from C-3 of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate to C-2 of 3-phosphoglycerate, forming 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. EC 5.4.2.4. Diphosphoglyceromutase,Bisphosphoglycerate Synthase,Bisphosphoglyceromutase,Diphosphoglycerate Mutase,Mutase, Bisphosphoglycerate,Mutase, Diphosphoglycerate,Synthase, Bisphosphoglycerate
D002474 Cell-Free System A fractionated cell extract that maintains a biological function. A subcellular fraction isolated by ultracentrifugation or other separation techniques must first be isolated so that a process can be studied free from all of the complex side reactions that occur in a cell. The cell-free system is therefore widely used in cell biology.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
