The Action of Α-amanitin on Rna Synthesis in Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells
alpha-Amanitin acts in vitro as a selective inhibitor of the nucleoplasmic form B RNA polymerases. Treatment of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells with this drug leads principally to a severe fragmentation of the nucleoli. While the ultrastructural lesions induced by alpha-amanitin in CHO cells and in rat or mouse liver are quite similar, the results diverge concerning the effect on RNA synthesi...
متن کاملAlpha-Amanitin resistance of RNA polymerase II in mutant Chinese hamster ovary cell lines.
A number of mutant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines resistant to the cytotoxic action of alpha-amanitin have been isolated. The alpha-amanitin sensitivity of the different mutant cell lines varied widely, but correlated well with the alpha-amanitin sensitivity of the RNA polymerase II activity in each of these mutant cell lines. In comparison with the RNA polymerase II of wild-type cells,...
متن کاملEXPRESSION OF HUMAN PROTEINASE 3 IN CHINESE HAMSTER OVARY CELLS (CHO-CELLS)
Proteinase 3(PR3) is a human polymorphonuclear leukocyte serine proteinase and is the main target antigen for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) found in Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). We developed a stable expression system for conformationally intact recombinant PR3 (rPR3) in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-cells). The part of PR3 cDNA that encoded the active form of PR3 was s...
متن کاملRNA synthesis in the ultrastructural and biochemical components of the nucleolus of Chinese hamster ovary cells
A correlated autoradiographic and biochemical study of RNA synthesis in the nucleoli of chinese hamster ovary cells has been made. Quantitative analysis of the labeling indicates that the fibrillar ribonucleoprotein (RNP) component is labeled faster than 80S RNP and 45S RNA molecules, but approaches simultaneously a steady-state 3H to 14C ratio or grains/mum2 after 30 min of [3H]uridine incorp...
متن کاملRna Synthesis in Chinese Hamster Cells
The incorporation of methionine-methyl-(14)C into 18S ribosomal RNA of cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells in early and late interphase has been determined by zone-sedimentation analysis of phenol-extracted RNA preparations. Synchronized cell cultures were prepared for these studies by thymidine treatment and by mechanical selection of mitotic cells. The specific activity of 18S RNA labeled in...
