چکیده

In vitro poly(dA) synthesis on poly(dT) template can be initiated by poly(A) primer. Poly(A) chains are covalently extended by DNA polymerase. The reaction product consists of poly(dA) chain with poly(A) at their 5'-ends, hydrogen bonded to the template poly(dT). The primer poly(A) is linked to the product poly(dA) via a 3':5'-phosphodiester bond, and can be specifically removed by ribonuclease H from chick embryos, leaving a 5'-phosphate end of poly(dA). Poly- or oligoriboadenylate longer than the (pA)5 could serve as a priming activity to synthesize poly(A) covalently linked to poly(dA).

Covalent attachment of polyribonucleotides to polydeoxyribonucleotides catalyzed by deoxyribonucleic acid ligase.

DNA ligase isolated from Escherichia coli or phage T4-infected E. coli catalyzes the covalent joining of the 5’-phosphate termini of polydeoxyribonucleotides and 3’-hydroxyl termini of polyribonucleotides. This reaction occurs with poly(dA) and poly(A) in the presence of poly(dT). The 5’-phosphate terminus of poly[d(A-T)] can be linked by an intramolecular reaction to its 3’-hydroxyl terminus s...

Mechanism of action of ribonuclease H isolated from avian myeloblastosis virus and Escherichia coli.

Purified preparations of RNA-dependent DNA polymerase isolated from avain myeloblastosis virus contain RNase H activity. Labeled ribohomopolymers are degraded in the presence of their complementary deoxyribopolymer, except [(3)H]poly(U).poly(dA). The degradation products formed from [(3)H]poly(A).poly(dT) were identified as oligonucleotides containing 3'-hydroxyl and 5'-phosphate termini, while...

Uracil in deoxyribonucleotide polymers reduces their template-primer activity for E. coli DNA polymerase I.

The physical and biochemical properties of two pairs of synthetic DNA template-primers were investigated. The copolymer poly(dA-dU) . poly(dA-dU) and the homopolymer duplex poly(dA). poly(dU) were characterized by a lower Tm and by a higher buoyant density value than the respective thymine polynucleotides poly(dA-dT) . poly(dA-dT) and poly(dA) . poly(dT). The polymerizing and the primer terminu...

Comparisons of the fidelity of transcription of RNA polymerase I and II following N-hydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene treatment.

Using hepatic RNA polymerase I and II from either normal or N-2-hydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene (N-OH-AAF)-treated rats or E. coli RNA polymerase, the degree of misincorporation of noncomplementary nucleotides was assessed with the synthetic templates, poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC) and poly (dA-dT).poly(dA-dT). The predominant base-pair transformation that was transcribed in the presence of Mg++ or Mn+...

Biochemical properties of oligo [(+)-carbocyclic-thymidylates] and their complexes.

We report here spectroscopic and biochemical data of a novel series of sugar-modified oligodeoxy-nucleotides, the carbocyclic oligothymidylates, c(dT)3-20. In c(dT)n a methylene group has been substituted for the oxygen atom of the deoxyribose ring of the natural thymidylate unit. c(dT)10-20 form helical structures, in contrast with oligothymidylates or poly(dT), based on absorbance versus temp...
