چکیده

1. DNA has been isolated from different mammalian tissues. The DNA preparations were free from RNA, protein and polysaccharides and have a similar range of sedimentation coefficients (approx. 24s). 2. Protein was removed by a two-stage extraction with a phenol-cresol mixture by using a detergent with 4-aminosalicylate in the first stage and sodium chloride in the second. 3. Polysaccharides remained in solution when DNA was precipitated with 2-butoxyethanol in the presence of 0.5m-sodium chloride and 1.5m-sodium benzoate. 4. Ribosomal RNA was removed by precipitation in the presence of 3m-sodium chloride at 0 degrees , when DNA remained soluble.

Multiple forms of mammalian deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase. An attempt to relate their interactions with nuclei and free deoxyribonucleic acid in vitro with their possible functions in vivo.

THE DNA POLYMERASES OF THE FOLLOWING EUKARYOTIC TISSUES WERE STUDIED: regenerating rat liver, normal rat liver, rat thymus, normal mouse liver and Ehrlich ascites-tumour cells. In all cases two main polymerase forms are observed, one of mol.wt. 200000, preferring denatured DNA to native calf thymus DNA primer, designated type I, and the other, designated type II, of mol.wt. 100000, showing a va...

Isolation and Evaluation of Collagen from the Fish (Thunnus Tonggol) Skin: A Biological Material for Medical Tissue Engineering

Introduction: Collagen bears many applications in pharmacy and medicine, health and cosmetic products as well as food industry. In recent years, much attention has been paid to separation of collagen from marine organisms arising from the fact that its use in the diet is not restricted and triggers no risk of contagious diseases as well as religious restrictions. Moreover, fish collagen is uniq...

Fatty Acid Amides of Ethanolamine in Mammalian Tissues.

While investigating the metabolism of ethanolamine by rat liver microsomes, we observed an incorporation of this amine into microsomal lipid that was dependent on the presence of a fatty acid as cosubstrate (1). It was shown that the product of the enzymatic reaction was the fatty acid amide of ethanolamine and that the reaction was synthetic, since little hydrolysis of added fatty acid amide c...
