ADP-ribosyltransferase in isolated nuclei during the cell cycle of Physarum polycephalum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
ADP-ribosyltransferase was measured in isolated nuclei of Physarum polycephalum. Activity was determined with and without exogenous DNA and histones. During the synchronous cell cycle the activity measured with exogenous substrates exhibited a typical peak enzyme pattern with a maximum of activity in S-phase, whereas activity measured without exogenous substrates displayed a step enzyme pattern. Both activities doubled in each cell cycle.

Specific nuclear elimination in polyploid plasmodia of the slime mold Physarum polycephalum.
In growing plasmodia of the myxomycete Physarum polycephalum (G2-phase), three distinct classes of nuclei with a relative DNA content of 1x, 2x, and 4x are observed in the presumed haploid strain CL. The 2x and 4x species comprise up to 35% and 5% of the nuclei. Quantitative cytofluorometric studies of nuclei isolated in either G2- or S-phase or after FUDR treatment (G1 arrest) show that the th...
متن کاملChange of the nuclear pore frequency during the nuclear cycle of Physarum polycephalum.
The change of the nuclear pore frequency during the nuclear cycle of synchronous plasmodia of Physaru- polycephalum was investigated. Counts were made on platinum-carbon replicas of isolated nuclei. Pore numbers varied markedly at any given time of the nuclear cycle, possibly due to the variable DNA contents of the nuclei. The average pore frequency per nucleus increased from 336 at 1 h after m...
متن کاملReplication of Nucleolus-associated Dna during "g2 Phase" in Physarum Polycephalum
In the myxomycete, Physarum polycephalum, the bulk of nuclear DNA replication occurs during a period of a few hours immediately following upon mitosis. During the remainder of the intermitotic period, incorporation of thymidine-(3)H continues at a low rate in the region of the nucleolus (radioautographs). A few nuclei incorporated thymidine-(3)H into the extranucleolar chromatin at a high rate ...

Endogenous RNA polymerase activity of isolated nuclei from Physarum polycephalum was determined at high (400 mM KCl) and low (5--100 mM KCl) ionic strength. The activity of RNA polymerase B (alpha-amanitin-sensitive UMP incorporation) and of RNA polymerase A (plus C) (alpha-amanitin-resistant UMP incorporation) was compared in accurately sized nuclear samples derived from macroplasmodia at dist...
متن کاملNuclear acidic protein changes during differentiation in Physarum polycephalum.
A class of acidic nuclear phosphoproteins has been isolated throughout the mitotic cycle and at two points during differentiation in the slime mold Physarum polycephalum. The electrophoretic profiles of these proteins are reproducible and unchanging throughout the mitotic cycle, but reproducible changes occur during differentiation. The proteins are rapidly synthesized after mitosis, and their ...
