Three independent approaches (binding of 125I-antibodies to polysomes, cell-free translation of polyadenylated mRNA in a wheat germ system and hybridization of RNA with a specific complementary DNA probe) were used to study the intracellular distribution of polysomes involved in the synthesis of coeruloplasmin as well as of coeruloplasmin mRNA sequences in rat liver. It was shown that only membrane-bound polysomes contain both nascent chains of coeruloplasmin and coeruloplasmin mRNA sequences. The size of coeruloplasmin polysomes is 16-18 monomers/mRNA molecule and their proportion is about 0.4-0.6% of total liver polysomes. The proportion of coeruloplasmin mRNA is 0.0025% of the total polysomal RNA and 0.29% of poly(A)-containing mRNA. These values correspond to coeruloplasmin mRNA concentration about 400-535 molecules per parenchymatous liver cell, 90% of those mRNA molecules were recovered from polysomes while the remaining 10% were from postpolysomal supernatant.

D007136 Immunoglobulins Multi-subunit proteins which function in IMMUNITY. They are produced by B LYMPHOCYTES from the IMMUNOGLOBULIN GENES. They are comprised of two heavy (IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS) and two light chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS) with additional ancillary polypeptide chains depending on their isoforms. The variety of isoforms include monomeric or polymeric forms, and transmembrane forms (B-CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS) or secreted forms (ANTIBODIES). They are divided by the amino acid sequence of their heavy chains into five classes (IMMUNOGLOBULIN A; IMMUNOGLOBULIN D; IMMUNOGLOBULIN E; IMMUNOGLOBULIN G; IMMUNOGLOBULIN M) and various subclasses.

D011132 Polyribosomes A multiribosomal structure representing a linear array of RIBOSOMES held together by messenger RNA; (RNA, MESSENGER); They represent the active complexes in cellular protein synthesis and are able to incorporate amino acids into polypeptides both in vivo and in vitro. (From Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed) Polysomes,Polyribosome,Polysome
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D002474 Cell-Free System A fractionated cell extract that maintains a biological function. A subcellular fraction isolated by ultracentrifugation or other separation techniques must first be isolated so that a process can be studied free from all of the complex side reactions that occur in a cell. The cell-free system is therefore widely used in cell biology.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.
