Similar sets of terminal oligonucleotides from reovirus double-stranded RNA and viral messenger RNA synthesized in vitro. 1981

K E Hastings, and S Millward

Reovirus genomic double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and viral messenger RNA synthesized in vitro were labeled by periodate oxidation and [3H]borohydride reduction. The 3H label was incorporated into 3'-terminal C residues and 5'-terminal N7-methylguanosine residues. Analysis of ribonuclease digests of the 3H-labeled RNA indicated that the minus strands of dsRNA contained the common 3'-terminal sequence ... PypPupGpC and that the plus strands contained heterogeneous sequence at both the 5' termini and 3'termini that corresponded to sequences at the 5' termini and 3' termini of mRNA. These results suggest that the plus strands of dsRNA and mRNA synthesized in vitro are essentially identical sets of molecules.

D012330 RNA, Double-Stranded RNA consisting of two strands as opposed to the more prevalent single-stranded RNA. Most of the double-stranded segments are formed from transcription of DNA by intramolecular base-pairing of inverted complementary sequences separated by a single-stranded loop. Some double-stranded segments of RNA are normal in all organisms. Double-Stranded RNA,Double Stranded RNA,RNA, Double Stranded
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.
