Isolation of an RNA-directed RNA polymerase-specific cDNA clone from tomato.
A 3600-bp RNA-directed RNA polymerase (RdRP)-specific cDNA comprising an open reading frame (ORF) of 1114 amino acids was isolated from tomato. The putative protein encoded by this ORF does not share homology with any characterized proteins. Antibodies that were raised against synthetic peptides whose sequences have been deduced from the ORF were shown to specifically detect the 127-kD tomato R...
متن کاملPurification and Characterization of RNA Polymerase from
We have purified and characterized a DNA-dependent RNA polymerase from the blue-green alga Fremyela dipsiphon. This enzyme, purified by gel filtration, DEAE-ceflulose chromatography, and glycerol gradient centrifugation, is comprised of five polypeptide subunits. Their masses are 161,000, 134,000, 91,000, 72,000, and 41,000 daltons. Preparative electrophoresis of the purified enzyme on nondenat...
متن کاملEnhancement of RNA Interference Effect in P19 EC Cells by an RNA-dependent RNA Polymerase
Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is a phenomenon uses double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) to specifically inhibit gene expression. The non-specific silencing caused by interferon response to dsRNA in mammalian cells limits the potential of utilizing RNAi to study gene function. Duplexes of 21-nucleotide short interfering dsRNA (siRNA) inhibit gene expression by RNAi. In some organisms, siRNA can als...
متن کاملRNA-polymerase-I-directed rDNA transcription, life and works.
In the extensive network of interdependent biochemical processes required for cell growth and division, there is mounting evidence that ribosomal DNA transcription by RNA polymerase I (pol I) not only drives cell growth via its direct role in production of the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) component of the protein-synthesis machinery, but that it is also crucial in determining the fate of the cell. Cons...
متن کاملCazdobacter crescentus RNA Polymerase PURIFICATION
Caulobacter crescentus RNA polymerase holoenzyme and core enzyme have been separated by chromatography on denatured DNA-cellulose and purified by phosphocellulose chromatography. In order to assess the functional role of the putative C. crescentus CT subunit, the enzymes were compared to Escherichia coli holoenzyme and core RNA polymerases, and the transcription of various DNA templates by C. c...
