Function and structure in ribonucleic acid phage Q beta ribonucleic acid replicase. The roles of the different subunits in transcription of synthetic templates.
Phage Q/3 RNA-dependent RNA replicate consists of four subunits: one is RNA phage specific (subunit II), the other three, present in the uninfected cell, are the protein biosynthesis elongation factors EF-Tu (subunit III) and EF-Ts (subunit IV) and the translation interference factor i (subunit I). When the protein biosynthesis elongation factors are removed by centrifugation of the initiated e...
متن کاملTetracycline does not directly inhibit the function of bacterial elongation factor Tu
Understanding the molecular mechanism of antibiotics that are currently in use is important for the development of new antimicrobials. The tetracyclines, discovered in the 1940s, are a well-established class of antibiotics that still have a role in treating microbial infections in humans. It is generally accepted that the main target of their action is the ribosome. The estimated affinity for t...
متن کاملQ beta RNA bacteriophage: mapping cis-acting elements within an RNA genome.
We have identified, for the first time, regions of cis-acting RNA elements within the bacteriophage Q beta replicase cistron by analyzing the infectivities of 76 replicase gene mutant phages in the presence of a helper replicase. Two separate classes of mutant Q beta phage genomes (35 different insertion mutants, each containing an insertion of 3 to 15 nucleotides within the replicase gene, and...
متن کاملMouse hepatitis virus does not induce Beta interferon synthesis and does not inhibit its induction by double-stranded RNA.
Mouse hepatitis virus (MHV) does not induce interferon (IFN) production in fibroblasts or bone marrow-derived dendritic cells. In this report, we show that the essential IFN-beta transcription factors NF-kappaB and IFN regulatory factor 3 are not activated for nuclear translocation and gene induction during infection. However, MHV was unable to inhibit the activation of these factors and subseq...
متن کاملRNA replication by Qf 3 replicase : A working model ( RNA - dependent RNA polymerase / viral replication )
Two classes of RNA ligands that bound to separate, high affinity nucleic acid binding sites on Qj8 replicase were previously identified. RNA ligands to the two sites, referred to as site I and site II, were used to investigate the molecular mechanism ofRNA replication employed by the four-subunit replicase. Replication inhibition by site Iand site 1I-specific ligands defined two subsets of repl...
