Double-stranded ribonucleic acid in viruses of Penicillium citrinum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The nucleic acid content of two viral populations in a strain of Penicillium citrinum is shown to be double-stranded ribonucleic acid, resolved through polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis into 10 size groups ranging from 1.17 to 3.98 megadaltons.

Fractionation of nucleic acids from Penicillium chrysogenum and associated ribonucleic acid viruses by selective exclusion and retention in agarose gels.
Double-stranded nucleic acids from a strain of Penicillium chrysogenum containing RNA viruses were isolated by agarose-gel filtration, and separated into DNA and double-stranded RNA fractions by agarose-gel chromatography in 2.5m-NaCl. The DNA fraction contained less than 1% alkali-labile polynucleotides, and sedimented homogeneously at 8-10S in alkaline sucrose gradients. In CsCl gradients it ...
متن کاملVirus particles from conidia of Penicillium species.
Virus particles and their component double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) have been isolated from conidia and mycelia of certain Penicillium species. The conidia and mycelia of P. stoloniferum NRRL 5267 contained 75 and 85 mug of dsRNA/g (dry weight), respectively. Of the total dsRNA released from NRRL 5267 conidia, 10% was nonencapsulated. Conidia of P. brevi-compactum NRRL 5260 and P. chry...
متن کاملLethality in mice of double-stranded ribonucleic acid from virus-like particles of Penicillium stoloniferum.
The LD 50 in mice of intact virus-like particles (VLP) from Penicillium stololllferum NRRL 5267 was greater than 240 mg/kg body weight, and their component double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) was 34·0 mg/kg. Judged by decreases in LD50 values, administration of sublethal amounts of actinomycin D or cycloheximide simultaneously with sublethal amounts of intact VLP or mycoviral dsRNA enhance...
متن کاملSodium dodecyl sulphate-sodium chloride extraction of Penicillium stoloniferum mycelium for viral double-stranded RNA.
Incubation of mycelia of a virus-containing strain of Penicillium stoloniferum in a I % sodium dodecyl sulphate-4 % sodium chloride (SDS-NaCl) solution liberated protein and deoxyribonucleic acid within the first hours, whereas ribonucleic acid (RNA) release continued through an extended period. Although transfer RNA (tRNA) was readily solubilized by the treatment, viral doublestranded RNA (dsR...
متن کاملForms of deoxyribonucleic acid produced by virions of the ribonucleic acid tumor viruses.
The in vitro product of mouse leukemia virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) polymerase can be separated into two fractions by sedimentation in sucrose gradients. These two fractions were analyzed for their content of single-stranded DNA, double-stranded DNA, and DNA-ribonucleic acid (RNA) hybrid by (i) digestion with enzymes of known specificity and (ii) equilibrium centrifugation in Cs(2)SO(4) gr...
