Detection of reverse transcriptase activity in human cells.
Samples of three nonmalignant and seven leukemic human cells were examined for DNA polymerase activity that could be identified as RNA tumor virus reverse transcriptase. Experiments on virus-infected model animal cells provided the basis for cell fractionation procedures, and reconstituted systems of known virus, added to human cells, established a threshold of virus detection by enzyme assay a...
متن کاملDehydroepiandroesteron increased proliferation of neural progenitor cells derived from p19 embryonal carcinoma stem cells.
Introduction: The p19 line of embryonal carcinoma cells develops into neurons, astroglia and fibroblasts after aggregation and exposure to retinoic acid (RA). Dehydroepiandroesteron (DHEA) is a neurosteroid, can increase proliferation of human neural stem cell (NSC) and positively regulated the number of neurons produced. This study was initiated to assess the effect of DHEA on neural progenito...
متن کاملThe non-reverse transcriptase activity of the human telomerase reverse transcriptase promotes tumor progression (review).
In human cancer, high expression of telomerase is correlated with tumor aggressiveness and metastatic potential. Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), which regulates telomere length, can promote tumor development. Most research on hTERT has been focused on its crucial function of telomere maintenance. However, there are many phenomena that cannot be explained by its reverse transcrip...
متن کاملHuman immunodeficiency virus reverse transcriptase-associated RNase H activity.
Biochemical characteristics of the RNase H activity associated with immunoaffinity purified human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reverse transcriptase (RT) were examined. Glycerol gradient centrifugation of HIV RT resulted in a single peak of RNase H, associated with RT activity, with an apparent molecular weight of 110,000. HIV RNase H exhibited a marked substrate preference for poly(dC).[3H]pol...
متن کاملHuman Immunodeficiency Virus Reverse Transcriptase
3’-Azido-3’-deoxythymidine 5’4riphosphate (AZTTP) was an efficient substrate for the human immunodeficiency virus 1 reverse transcriptase. It was incorporated into both homopolymer and defined sequence DNA-primed RNA templates and DNA-primed DNA templates. The substrate and inhibitor kinetics of both AZTTP and dTTP were dependent on the template-primer and reaction conditions used. dTMP was inc...
