Effect of unilateral nephrectomy on the RNA synthesis in hypertrophic rat kidney. 1980

I Rahden-Starón, and W Sendecki

1. The hypertrophic rat kidney after unilateral nephrectomy showed a time-dependent increase in the RNA/DNA ratio. This was associated with the increased rate of alpha-amanitin-insensitive RNA synthesis in isolated nuclei. 2. The increased activity of solubilized RNA polymerase was due to polymerase I, II and III as judged from the DEAE-Sephadex chromatography. 3. Chromatin DNA from hypertrophic kidneys was more susceptible to DNAase I than DNA from control kidneys.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D006984	Hypertrophy	General increase in bulk of a part or organ due to CELL ENLARGEMENT and accumulation of FLUIDS AND SECRETIONS, not due to tumor formation, nor to an increase in the number of cells (HYPERPLASIA).	Hypertrophies
D007668	Kidney	Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations.	Kidneys
D007700	Kinetics	The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008297	Male		Males
D009392	Nephrectomy	Excision of kidney.	Heminephrectomy,Heminephrectomies,Nephrectomies
D002843	Chromatin	The material of CHROMOSOMES. It is a complex of DNA; HISTONES; and nonhistone proteins (CHROMOSOMAL PROTEINS, NON-HISTONE) found within the nucleus of a cell.	Chromatins
D003850	Deoxyribonuclease I	An enzyme capable of hydrolyzing highly polymerized DNA by splitting phosphodiester linkages, preferentially adjacent to a pyrimidine nucleotide. This catalyzes endonucleolytic cleavage of DNA yielding 5'-phosphodi- and oligonucleotide end-products. The enzyme has a preference for double-stranded DNA.

D004247	DNA	A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004720	Endonucleases	Enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of the internal bonds and thereby the formation of polynucleotides or oligonucleotides from ribo- or deoxyribonucleotide chains. EC 3.1.-.	Endonuclease
