Hybridization of pigeon globin messenger RNA with complementary DNA synthesized in vitro by reverse transcription: influence of the homopolymeric regions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The kinetics of hybridization of pigeon globin messenger RNA with complementary cDNA synthesized by means of AMV reverse transcriptase is complex. Addition of poly A or poly U in excess to the reaction mixture normalized the kinetics. It is concluded that association of the complementary homopolymeric regions of mRNA and cDNA accelerates the complex formation between heteropolymeric sequences in a fraction of the molecules.

Cell-free transcription of mammalian chromatin. Quantitative measurement of newly synthesized globin messenger RNA sequences.
Transcription of globin mRNA sequences from rabbit marrow chromatin was detected by hybridization with globin complementary DNA (cDNA). The presence of newly synthesized RNA in cDNA-globin mRNA hybrids isolated by Cs2SO4 density equilibrium centrifugation required the addition of both rabbit marrow chromatin and DNA-dependent RNA polymerase (Escherichia coli) to the transcription reaction. No g...

Details are presented of the in vitro synthesis of double-stranded DNA complementary to purified Xenopus globin messenger RNA, using a combination of reverse transcriptase, fragment 'A' of E. coli DNA polymerase 1 and S1 endonuclease. After selection of duplex DNA molecules approaching the length of Xenopus globin messenger RNA by sedimentation of the DNA through neutral sucrose gradients, the ...
متن کاملDefects in DNA and globin messenger RNA in homozygotes for hemoglobin Lepore.
Globin messenger RNA (mRNA) isolated from three patients homozygous for hemoglobin Lepore is shown to have a marked reduction of the amount of beta-like globin mRNA (Lepore-globin mRNA sequences) compared with alpha-globin mRNA by molecular hybridization. The relative amounts of alpha- and Lepore mRNA are similar to the amounts of alpha- and Lepore globin synthesized in intact cells and by isol...
متن کاملChicken globin gene number.
Using complementary DNA prepared from adult chicken globin messenger RNA, we show the existence of 2-3 non-cross-hybridising globin sequences in the chicken genome, each of which is present in only one copy per haploid genome. This was done by solution hybridization to total DNA under conditions of cDNA excess. The data agreses with results of RNA-driven hybridisation of globin complementary DN...
متن کاملA RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity: implications for chromatin transcription experiments.
Mercurated nucleoside triphosphates have been used for transcription of chicken oviduct chromatin with E. coli RNA polymerase. The newly synthesized RNA was purified from preexisting RNA by SH-agarose chromatography and analyzed for the content of specific mRNA sequences. The apparent preferential production of ovalbumin mRNA sequences was not inhibited by actinomycin D, although total RNA synt...
