چکیده

A method is presented to separate the mRNAs coding for alpha and beta globins of rabbit reticulocytes. 10S RNA was extracted from the light and heavy polysomes created by incubation of reticulocytes with L-O-methylthreonine, and assayed for mRNA activity in an ascites cell-free extract. Tryptic digests of the in vitro products demonstrated that the heavy polysomes yielded beta globin mRNA at least 90% free of alpha mRNA activity, and that the light polysomes yielded alpha mRNA at least 70% free of beta mRNA activity.

Increased efficiency of exogenous messenger RNA translation in a Krebs ascites cell lysate.

Addition of a 0.5 M KCl wash fraction from rabbit reticulocyte ribosomes causes a 3- to 10-fold increase in the extent of translation of natural mRNAs by Krebs-cell lysates. In the presence of the wash fraction, 1 pmol of rabbit or mouse 10S RNA directs the incorporation of 80 pmol of leucine into rabbit globin. The addition of human 10S RNA results in the synthesis of equal amounts of human al...

Background & Aim: Since the mutant Hbs do not have any obvious electrical charge, globin chain separation is helpful for the diagnosis ofunknown Hbs. Therefore, the present study was carried out to detect alpha or beta chain variants by cation exchangechromatography.There are several point mutations in hemoglobin(Hb) genes which can cause hemoglobinopathy.Material and Method: count(CBC), HbA2 a...

Cell-free translation of the globin message within polydisperse high-molecular-weight ribonucleic acid of avian erythrocytes.

Polydisperse high-molecular-weight RNA of nucleated avian erythrocytes includes sequences coding for globin chains. The RNA was extracted from immature erythrocytes of ducks and fractionated under denaturing conditions by sucrose density gradient centrifugation in 99% dimethylsulfoxide. The RNA sedimenting faster than 45 S was able to direct the synthesis of duck globins in the Krebs II ascites...

Quantitative deficiency of chain-specific globin messenger ribonucleic acids in the thalassemia syndromes.

A hybridization assay procedure was devised that makes possible quantitation of the ratio of mRNA of alpha to mRNA of beta globin chains in an RNA sample. The assay uses the radioactive synthetic DNA copies obtained by incubation of RNA-dependent DNA polymerase of avian myeloblastosis virus with rabbit globin mRNA that is 80-90% enriched in mRNA specific for synthesis of alpha or beta globin ch...

Development and characterization of polyclonal antibody against human kappa light chain in rabbit

Polyclonal antibodies against kappa light chain are used to diagnose diseases producing free light chain. The kappa and lambda light chains are products of immunoglobulin synthesis and released into the circulation in minor amounts such as serum, cerebrospinal fluid, urine and synovial fluid in normal condition. The purpose of this study was the production and purification of polyclonal immunog...
