Telomerase trafficking and assembly in Xenopus oocytes.
The core components of telomerase are telomerase RNA (TR) and telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT). In vertebrate cells, TR and TERT have been reported to associate with intranuclear structures, including Cajal bodies and nucleoli as well as telomeres. Here, we examined the time course of both TR localization and assembly of TR with TERT in Xenopus oocytes. The major trafficking pathway for ...
متن کاملAssembly of Torpedo acetylcholine receptors in Xenopus oocytes
To study pathways by which acetylcholine receptor (AChR) subunits might assemble, Torpedo alpha subunits were expressed in Xenopus oocytes alone or in combination with beta, gamma, or delta subunits. The maturation of the conformation of the main immunogenic region (MIR) on alpha subunits was measured by binding of mAbs and the maturation of the conformation of the AChR binding site on alpha su...
متن کاملMicrotubule assembly in cytoplasmic extracts of Xenopus oocytes and eggs
We have investigated the differences in microtubule assembly in cytoplasm from Xenopus oocytes and eggs in vitro. Extracts of activated eggs could be prepared that assembled extensive microtubule networks in vitro using Tetrahymena axonemes or mammalian centrosomes as nucleation centers. Assembly occurred predominantly from the plus-end of the microtubule with a rate constant of 2 microns.min-1...
متن کاملIn vivo regulation of MPF in Xenopus oocytes.
Entry into M phase in the eukaryotic cell cycle is controlled by the oscillating activity of MPF. The active component of MPF is now known to be the p34cdc2 protein kinase originally found in yeast. The p34cdc2 protein kinase displays a characteristic M-phase-specific histone H1 kinase activity when it interacts with cyclins, which are proteins that oscillate through the cell cycle and are thou...
متن کاملActin in Xenopus oocytes
It has been found that a high-speed supernatant fraction from Xenopus oocytes extracted in the cold will form a clear, solid gel upon warming. Gel formation occurs within 60 min at 18 degrees-40 degrees C, and is, at least initially, temperature reversible. Gelation is strictly dependent upon the addition of sucrose to the extraction medium. When isolated in the presence of ATP, the gel consist...
