Poly(A) binds to initiation factors and increases cap-dependent translation in vitro.
Both the 5' cap (m7GpppN) and the 3' poly(A) tail of eukaryotic mRNAs are important regulators of translation efficiency in vivo. Their function, however, is markedly reduced in in vitro translation systems derived from either rabbit reticulocytes or wheat germ. The impact of exogenous poly(A) on cap-dependent translation was examined in vitro. The translation of uncapped mRNA was preferentiall...
متن کاملThe ATP-dependent interaction of eukaryotic initiation factors with mRNA.
The interaction of three protein synthesis initiation factors, eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF)-4A, -4B, and -4F, with mRNA has been examined. Three assays specifically designed to evaluate this interaction are RNA-dependent ATP hydrolysis, retention of mRNAs on nitrocellulose filters, and cross-linking to periodate-oxidized mRNAs. The ATPase activity of eIF-4A is only activated by RNA which ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial activities of 1,4-benzoquinones and wheat germ extract.
We evaluated the antibacterial activities of selected edible Korean plant seeds against the food-borne pathogens Staphylococcus aureus KCTC1927, Escherichia coli KCTC2593, Salmonella typhimurium KCTC2054, and Bacillus cereus KCTC1014. While screening for antibacterial agents, we discovered that wheat germ extract contains 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (DMBQ) and is highly inhibitory to S. aure...
متن کاملFormation of an 80 S methionyl-tRNA initiation complex with soluble factors from wheat germ.
Wheat germ supernatant is resolved into four fractions, C3alpha, C3beta, D and A, all of which are required in addition to elongation EF1 and EF2 for tobacco mosaic virus-RNA (TMV-RNA)-catalyzed amino acid polymerization. Fractions C3beta and D function in the binding of Met-tRNAiMet to the 40 S ribosomal subunit forming an unstable 40 S-Met-tRNA1Met complex that is detected in sucrose gradient...
متن کاملComparison of MCNP4C, 4B and 4A Monte Carlo codes when calculating electron therapy depth doses
ABSTRACT Background: accurate methods of radiation therapy dose calculation. There are different Monte Carlo codesfor simulation of photons, electrons and the coupled transport of electrons and photons. MCNPis a general purpose Monte Carlo code that can be used for electron, photon and coupledphoton-electron transport.Monte Carlo simulation of radiation transport is considered to be one of the ...
