Synchronized Cell Division in Tetrahymena Pyriformis following Inhibition with Vinblastine
The ability of Tetrahymena pyriformis to undergo synchronous division following release of inhibition with vinblastine was examined. The degree of synchrony was shown to be correlated with the period of time spent under the influence of vinblastine. Cells were inhibited for different periods of time with vinblastine and then washed free of the inhibitor with fresh medium. The increase in cell n...
متن کاملRibosome Synthesis in Tetrahymena Pyriformis
The cellular site of synthesis of ribosomal RNA in Tetrahymena pyriformis was studied by analyzing the purified nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA from cells pulse labeled with uridine-(3)H. The results of studies using zonal centrifugation in sucrose density gradients show that the ribosomal RNA is synthesized in the nucleus as a large precursor molecule sedimenting at 35S. The 35S molecule undergoes...
متن کاملMacromolecular Events Leading to Cell Division in Tetrahymena Pyriformis after Removal and Replacement of Required Pyrimidines
Tetrahymena pyriformis were brought to a non-growing state by removal of pyrimidines from their growth medium. During pyrimidine deprivation cell number increased 3- to 4 fold, and this increase was accompanied by one or more complete cycles of macronuclear DNA replication. Autoradiographic studies show that endogenous protein and RNA were turning over throughout starvation and that RNA breakdo...
متن کاملMicronuclear Ribonucleic Acid in Tetrahymena Pyriformis
The presence of RNA in the micronucleus of Tetrahymena pyriformis was detected by electron microscope radioautography after incubation with tritiated precursors. The specificity of RNA labeling was shown by ribonuclease digestion. The period of appearance of labeled RNA in the micronucleus is approximately coincident with the DNA synthesis period for the micronucleus. Pulse-chase experiments sh...
متن کاملCiliary Membrane Differentiations in Tetrahymena Pyriformis
We have examined thin sections and replicas of freeze-fractured cilia of Tetrahymena pyriformis. The ciliary necklace located at the base of all freeze-fractured oral and somatic cilia has been studied in thin sections. Since electron-dense linkers have been found to connect both microtubule doublets and triplets to the ciliary membrane at the level of the necklace, the linkers and the associat...
