Translation of nonpolyadenylylated messenger RNA of sea urchin embryos.

A large proportion of newly synthesized polyribosomal RNA of sea urchin blastulae is not polyadenylylated. The size distributions of the polyadenylylated and nonpolyadenylylated RNA are indistinguishable (mean size of 26 S). Upon translation of sea urchin polyribosomal RNA containing poly(A) and that without poly(A) in a wheat embryo cell-free protein-synthesizing system, where polypeptide synt...

Kinetic model for the study of gene expression in the developing sea urchin.

We have derived a kinetic model to assist in the study of gene expression for systems in which rapid changes in cell number occur. This kinetic model is based upon development of the sea urchin embryo, and considers changes in the number of cells, the fraction of each cell-cycle spent in mitosis, and the overall rate of transcription. We have applied this kinetic model to the accumulation of ac...

Cell-free translation of maternal messenger RNA from sea urchin eggs.

The template activity of RNA extracted from unfertilized sea urchin eggs was demonstrated in a cell-free translation system, and, for the first time, specific proteins were identified among the products. All messenger RNA activity is recovered, under the conditions used, from the postribosomal supernatant. Histones, among many other proteins, were identified specifically as products of this "ma...

RNA Deep Sequencing Reveals Differential MicroRNA Expression during Development of Sea Urchin and Sea Star

microRNAs (miRNAs) are small (20-23 nt), non-coding single stranded RNA molecules that act as post-transcriptional regulators of mRNA gene expression. They have been implicated in regulation of developmental processes in diverse organisms. The echinoderms, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (sea urchin) and Patiria miniata (sea star) are excellent model organisms for studying development with well-c...

Genes involved in the RNA interference pathway are differentially expressed during sea urchin development.

RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) is a conserved gene silencing mechanism that involves double-stranded RNA as a signal to trigger the sequence-specific degradation of target mRNA, resulting in posttranscriptional silencing and/or translational repression. Bioinformatic searches in the sea urchin genome database identified homologs of Drosha, DGCR5, Dicer, TRBP, Exportin-5, and Argonautes. Quant...

The Effect of Protein Synthesis Inhibition on the Entry of Messenger Rna into the Cytoplasm of Sea Urchin Embryos

Emetine is a potent inhibitor of protein synthesis in sea urchin embryos. At a concentration of the drug that rapidly inhibits protein synthesis in blastulae by 95%, uridine incorporation into RNA continues for more than 1 hr and presumptive histone messenger RNA is synthesized and transported into the cytoplasm where it is apparently associated with polyribosomes. Possible explanations of this...
