Carbodiimide-induced protein--RNA crosslinking in mammalian ribosomal subunits. 1982

M Buisson, and A M Reboud

RNA--protein interactions in the 60 S subunits of rat liver ribosomes were studied using 1-ethyl-3-dimethylaminopropyl carbodiimide (EDC) under conditions which neither changed the sedimentation coefficient of subunits nor the intactness of their rRNA. EDC induced RNA--protein and protein--protein crosslinkings. Proteins crosslinked to 28 S RNA were identified by two-dimensional gel electrophoreses as L17, L19, L23a and L37a, shown to react with 28 S RNA when using a low dose of UV radiation. Attempts have also been made to use EDC for the studies of RNA--protein interactions in 40 S ribosomal subunits.

D002234 Carbodiimides Compounds with the general formula RN Carbodiimide
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli

D012270 Ribosomes Multicomponent ribonucleoprotein structures found in the CYTOPLASM of all cells, and in MITOCHONDRIA, and PLASTIDS. They function in PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS via GENETIC TRANSLATION. Ribosome
D012335 RNA, Ribosomal The most abundant form of RNA. Together with proteins, it forms the ribosomes, playing a structural role and also a role in ribosomal binding of mRNA and tRNAs. Individual chains are conventionally designated by their sedimentation coefficients. In eukaryotes, four large chains exist, synthesized in the nucleolus and constituting about 50% of the ribosome.
