چکیده

A fraction of mouse RNA containing messenger RNA coding for mouse interferon was translated with high efficiency in a wheat germ system into a fully active product. This product fulfills the criteria for mouse interferon, namely: (1) it was active against vesicular stomatitis virus and herpes simplex virus in mouse cells; (2) its antiviral activity was species specific; (3) its activity was completely neutralized by mouse anti-interferon serum. The synthesis of interferon in this cell-free system requires the presence of spermine.

Protein synthesis in cell-free systems: an effect of interferon.

The activity of ribosome and cell-sap fractions from interferon-treated and control chick embryo fibroblasts was compared in mixed chick-mouse and purely chick cell-free systems capable of the synthesis of viral polypeptide(s) in response to viral ribonucleic acid (RNA). Interferon treatment of cells did not affect the intrinsic amino acid incorporation activity of these systems or their respon...

Interferon activity produced by translation of human interferon messenger RNA in cell-free ribosomal systems and in Xenopus oöcytes.

Translation of messenger RNA isolated from poly(rI)-poly(rC)-induced human fibroblasts in cell-free ribosomal systems and in Xenopus oocytes resulted in the production of biologically active proteins that had the properties of human fibroblast interferon. The translation in the oocytes was much more efficient, giving approximately 500 times higher titers of interferon activity than the cell-fre...

I-13: Transcriptome Dynamics of Human and Mouse Preimplantation Embryos Revealed by Single Cell RNA-Sequencing

Background: Mammalian preimplantation development is a complex process involving dramatic changes in the transcriptional architecture. However, it is still unclear about the crucial transcriptional network and key hub genes that regulate the proceeding of preimplantation embryos. Materials and Methods: Through single-cell RNAsequencing (RNA-seq) of both human and mouse preimplantation embryos, ...

Possible involvement of messenger RNA-associated proteins in protein synthesis

Two distinct forms of globin messenger RNA were isolated from mouse spleen cells infected with Friend erythroleukemia virus: polyribosomal messenger ribonucleoprotein particles (15S mRNP), and their corresponding protein-free mRNAs obtained by chemical deproteinization. The translation efficiencies of both messenger forms were assayed in a Krebs II ascites cell-free system. Selective removal of...

Interferon messenger RNA: translation in heterologous cells.

A viral inhibitor with the characteristics of mouse interferon is produced by avian and simian cells preincubated with RNA extracted from interferon-producing mouse cells. Similarly, RNA extracted from interferon-producing monkey cells induces a monkey interferon-like substance in avian cells and also in a line of simian cells, VERO, which normally lacks the capacity to produce its own interfer...
