Capping structures of simian virus 40 19S and 16S mRNAs.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In vivo [methyl 3H]-labeled SV40 19S and 16S mRNA species were purified and their internal methylation as well as their capping structures analyzed. SV40 viral mRNA sedimenting in the 19S region contains approximately equal proportions of m7GpppAm and m7Gppm6Am, while the 16S mRNA contains mainly m7Gpppm6Am. N6 methyl adenosine is located internally within the RNA chains of both the 19S and 16S species.

Isolation and characterization of simian virus 40 ribonucleic acid.
Deoxyribonucleic acid-ribonucleic acid (RNA) hybridization in formamide was used to isolate simian virus 40-specific RNA. Early in the lytic cycle, a 19S viral RNA species was observed. Late in the lytic cycle, 16S and 19S viral species were found. The 16S and 19S species of viral RNA were localized in the cytoplasm. High-molecular-weight heterogeneous RNA, containing viral sequences, was isola...
متن کاملLocalization of the 5' terminus of late SV40 mRNA.
A cap-containing oligonucleotide has been isolated from a T1 ribonuclease hydrolysate of total Simian Virus 40-specific late RNA and its structure has been determined as 7mG(5')ppp(5') mAmpU(m)pUp(Up,Cp)ApGp. This oligonucleotide constitutes the major 5' terminus of both late mRNA species, 16S and 19S. Assuming that viral mRNA "caps" are derived from a 5'-terminal triphosphate or diphosphate, t...
متن کاملLeakage of nuclear transcripts late in simian virus 40-infected CV1 cells: quantitation of spliced and unspliced late 19S RNAs.
During the late phase of simian virus 40 infections of CV1 cells, the relative ratios of the spliced to the unspliced RNA molecules of the 19S family were measured. In the cytoplasm, unspliced 19S RNA represented between 1 and 2% of spliced 19S RNA. This ratio could be altered by the use of different methods of RNA extraction such that unspliced RNA was observed at 10 to 20% of spliced RNA. The...
متن کاملExpression of the late gene of simian virus 40 under the control of the simian virus 40 early-region promoter in monkey and mouse cells.
We constructed a recombinant plasmid (pVNR4) with the simian virus 40 (SV40) early promoter positioned 30 nucleotides upstream from the major SV40 late transcription initiation site at residue 325. After transfection of the recombinant plasmid DNA into COS and mouse L cells, the transcripts of the SV40 late region were analyzed by S1 nuclease and primer extension analysis. The following are the...

We demonstrate here the usefulness of cytochalasin B enucleate cells for the study of the metabolism of cytoplasmic mRNA and for determining its half-life in animal cells. Simian virus 40 infected monkey cells in which the RNA had been labeled with [3H]uridine were enucleated, and the decay of the two prominent RNAs of simian virus 40, the 19S and 16S species, was measured by analysis on sucros...
