Reovirus-specific messenger ribonucleoprotein particles from HeLa cells.
نویسنده
چکیده
When reovirus-infected Hela cells are incubated at 43 degrees C virus-specific messenger RNA is released from the polysomes. It accumulates free in the cytoplasm as messenger ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs). These particles have a sedimentation rate of about 50S and a buoyant density in CsCL of 1.42 g/cm3. Reovirus mRNPs contain, besides all three size classes of reovirus messenger RNA, the same spectrum of proteins found in the polysomal mRNPs from uninfected cells, plus two additional proteins with molecular masses of 70 000 d and 110 000 d, respectively. Electron microscopic examination of the reovirus mRNP fraction reveals specific Y-shaped structures with a total mean length of 0.5 micrometers.

Poliovirus Particles do not Form in Preinfected Cells with Reovirus
Background and Aims: Inhibition of viral growth in coinfected cells with two different viruses has been described. This phenomenon known as viral interference can occur in several virus host systems such as interference of enterovirus infection on poliovirus vaccine strains. In this study we superinfected reovirus infected HeLa cells with poliovirus to determine if poliovirus can replicate in s...
متن کاملTranslation of reovirus messenger RNAs synthetesized in vitro into reovirus polypeptides by several mammalian cell-free extracts.
Single-stranded reovirus RNA, synthesized in vitro by reovirus cores, functioned as messenger RNA in cell-free extracts prepared from several mammalian cells: Krebs II mouse ascites cells, mouse L cells, Chinese hamster ovary cells, HeLa cells, and rabbit reticulocytes. As shown by acrylamide gel electrophoresis, all eight polypeptides known to be specified by reovirus were synthesized in the r...
متن کاملIsolation of messenger ribonucleoproteins from HeLa cells by affinity chromatography on poly (U) sepharose.
Polysomes of HeLa cells were adsorbed on Poly(U)-Sepharose columns. This adsorption is probably due to poly(A) sequences at 3' terminus of the messenger. Stepwise elution initially removed ribosomal subunits thereafter mRNA and a set of proteins. These proteins are identical with the main components of the polysomal messenger ribonucleoprotein particles described previously. Thus, this method a...
متن کاملIn vitro translation studies of the cytoplasmic nonpolysomal particles containing messenger RNA.
We analyzed the translational capacity of different kinds of free cytoplasmic messenger ribonucleoprotein complexes (free mRNP) in a Hela cell cell free system. Native free mRNP are not translated although free mRNP washed with 0.5 M KC1 can direct polypeptide synthesis. Furthermore, the 0.5 M KC1 wash possesses a factor which inhibits the translation of 0.5 M KC1 washed free mRNP as well as gl...
متن کاملIsolation of proteins comprising native gene-specific messenger ribonucleoprotein particles using paramagnetic beads
A method for the rapid isolation of proteins comprising native messenger ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs), that utilises streptavidin-coated paramagnetic beads, coupled with biotinylated oligodeoxyribonucleotides, to pull down general and transcriptspecific mRNP complexes from crude cell-free extracts, is described. Two biotinylated oligo probes were tested for their efficacy in isolating mR...
