Amino Acidsinto the Proteins ofMitochondrial Ribosomes from Neurospora crassa Sensitive to Cycloheximide and lnsensitive to Chloramphenicol

چکیده
Radioactive amino acids were incorporated in vivo into N eurospora crassa cells, and the mitochondrial ribosomes were isolated. The incorporation of radioactivity into the proteins of these ribosomes was inhibited by cycloheximide, but not by chloramphenicol. It is therefore concluded that these proteins are synthesized on the cycloheximide sensitive and chloramphenicol insensitive cytoplasmic ribosomes.

متن کاملIdentification of two products of mitochondrial protein synthesis associated with mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase from Neurospora crassa.
Soluble mitochondrial ATPase (F1) isolated from Neurospora crassa is resolved by dodecylsulfate-gel electrophoresis into five polypeptide bands with apparent molecular weights of 59000, 55000, 36000, 15000 and 12000. At least nine further polypeptides remain associated with ATPase after disintegration of mitochondria with Triton X-100 as shown by the analysis of an immunoprecipitate obtained wi...
متن کاملSites of biosynthesis of outer and inner membrane proteins of Neurospora crassa mitochondria.
Outer and inner membranes of Neurospora crassa mitochondria were separated by the combined swelling, shrinking, sonication procedure. Membranes were characterized by electron microscopy and by marker enzyme activities. A red carotenoid pigment was found to be concentrated in the outer membrane. The inner mitochondrial membrane was resolved into about 20 protein bands on polyacrylarnide gel elec...
متن کاملAn assessment of in vivo mitochondrial protein synthesis in Neurospora crassa.
This paper describes a procedure which was designed to maximally inhibit the synthesis in vivo of all proteins except those synthesized in the mitochondria. To this end a 15min preincubation of Neurospora crassa cells with 100 fig of cycloheximide per ml was employed before 14Cleucine was introduced. A small fraction of the protein synthesized by the whole cell (2.15%) was found to be completel...
متن کاملThe Intracellular Site of Synthesis of Mitochondrial Ribosomal Proteins in Neurospora Crassa
The intracellular site of synthesis of mitochondrial ribosomal proteins (MRP) in Neurospora crassa has been investigated using three complementary approaches. (a) Mitochondrial protein synthesis in vitro: Tritium-labeled proteins made by isolated mitochondria were compared to (14)C-labeled marker MRP by cofractionation in a two-step procedure involving isoelectric focusing and polyacrylamide ge...
