Precursors of globin mRNA in erythroid-enriched bone marrow cells of mouse. 1978

Y Hayashi, and E I Mikami

RNA from erythroid-enriched bone marrow cells of mouse was analyzed under two kinds of denaturing conditions (in 99% formamide and formaldehyde treatment), and globin mRNA sequence-containing RNAs larger than 18S in addition to 16S and 10S were detected by hybridization at a comparatively high Rot with complementary DNA (cDNA) to globin mRNA (10S). The existence of precursor RNAs larger than 18S was confirmed by two different methods; (i) recentrifugation in 99% formamide of RNA collected from the corresponding regions of RNA fractions and following detection of globin mRNA sequences, (ii) the specific isolation of [3H]labeled precursor RNA with a cDNA-cellulose column and fractionation in a 99% formamide-sucrose gradient. Furthermore, pulse-chase experiments indicated that some large RNAs with globin mRNA sequences could be chased to 10S RNA during a 30 min chase in the presence of a high concentration of actinomycin D (10 microgram/ml). From the results it was assumed that 35-37S RNAs with globin mRNA sequences were possible primary transcripts of globin genes and other RNAs with globin mRNA sequences in 16S, 20S, and 26S regions were intermediate precursors of 10S globin mRNA.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008970 Molecular Weight The sum of the weight of all the atoms in a molecule. Molecular Weights,Weight, Molecular,Weights, Molecular

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.

D003609 Dactinomycin A compound composed of a two CYCLIC PEPTIDES attached to a phenoxazine that is derived from STREPTOMYCES parvullus. It binds to DNA and inhibits RNA synthesis (transcription), with chain elongation more sensitive than initiation, termination, or release. As a result of impaired mRNA production, protein synthesis also declines after dactinomycin therapy.

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.

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. Messenger RNA,Messenger RNA, Polyadenylated,Poly(A) Tail,Poly(A)+ RNA,Poly(A)+ mRNA,RNA, Messenger, Polyadenylated,RNA, Polyadenylated,mRNA,mRNA, Non-Polyadenylated,mRNA, Polyadenylated,Non-Polyadenylated mRNA,Poly(A) RNA,Polyadenylated mRNA,Non Polyadenylated mRNA,Polyadenylated Messenger RNA,Polyadenylated RNA,RNA, Polyadenylated Messenger,mRNA, Non Polyadenylated
