Nuclear precursor molecules of the two beta-globin mRNAs in Friend erythroleukemia cells. 1982

D S Donaldson, and A R McNab, and G Rovera, and P J Curtis

Processing of the beta major and beta minor globin pre-mRNAs has been compared in murine erythroleukemia cells induced to synthesize hemoglobin by dimethyl sulfoxide or hemin treatment, using both the Northern blot technique and S1 nuclease mapping with 3' and 5' end-labeled probes. The small intervening sequence of both beta-globin pre-mRNAs was removed in one step, although minor amounts of incompletely spliced RNA were detected. During the processing of the large intervening sequence of beta major globin pre-mRNA two internal splice sites were clearly detected. On the contrary, the beta minor globin pre-mRNA did not show any internal splice sites. A model of processing of the mouse adult beta major globin pre-mRNA is proposed.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell

D004121 Dimethyl Sulfoxide A highly polar organic liquid, that is used widely as a chemical solvent. Because of its ability to penetrate biological membranes, it is used as a vehicle for topical application of pharmaceuticals. It is also used to protect tissue during CRYOPRESERVATION. Dimethyl sulfoxide shows a range of pharmacological activity including analgesia and anti-inflammation.
