The nature of the RNA products synthesized in vitro with a cell-free extract from TMV-infected tobacco leaves. 1980

F Rongxiang, and W Xiaofeng, and Q Bingyi, and C Faxing, and B Ming

A cell-free extract containing TMV-RNA replicase was prepared from TMV-infected tobacco leaves. It could synthesize double-stranded RNAs in the presence of four nucleoside triphosphates (among them, UTP was tritium-labelled), magnesium ion and actinomycin D. It was confirmed by polyacrylamide-agarose gel electrophoresis, RNase treatment, thermal denaturation and self annealing that 3H-ds RNAs, obtained from phenol-SDS extraction and Serva cellulose column chromatography, consisted of replicative form (RF) and replicative intermediate (RI) of TMV-RNA, with molecular weights of 40 X 10(6) and 5.0 X 10(6), respectively. Molecular hybridization competition experiment showed that 60-70% of the nascent RNAs in the 3H-ds RNA were plus strand of tMV-RNA.

D010947 Plants, Toxic Plants or plant parts which are harmful to man or other animals. Plants, Poisonous,Plant, Poisonous,Plant, Toxic,Poisonous Plant,Poisonous Plants,Toxic Plant,Toxic Plants
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.

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
