“…RNA Was Extracted from SV3T3 Cells by the procedure of Weinberg et al (18). Any contaminating DNA was digested with electrophoretically purified DNase (Worthington Biochemical), which had been previously treated with iodoacetate to remove traces of RNase (20).…”

“…Unlike many viruses, SV40 does not depress cellular RNA and protein synthesis, and the viral capsid structural proteins do not represent more than 10% of the total cellular spectrum of polypeptides even late in lytic infection (3,4). However, in this report we will show that by combining a sensitive cell-free translation system from wheatgerm extracts (5) with relatively simple methods of purification of viral messenger RNA (mRNA) based both on the presence of polyadenylate [poly(A) ] sequences (6,7) and selective hybridization to SV40 DNA (8), it is possible to synthesize in vitro the major SV40 capsid protein, VP-1. The cell-free translation of oncogenic virus mRNA, selected by hybridization, can provide the basis for identifying additional virus-specified products in permissive and transformed cells.…”

“…In HeLa cells, the majority of mitochondrial poly(A) is covalently linked to mitochondrial DNA (mit-DNA)-coded RNA (2). Inasmuch as poly(A) in eukaryotic cells appears to be associated only with cytoplasmic messenger RNA (mRNA) and its presumptive nuclear precursors (5-10), and with viral or viral-directed RNA with messenger function (5,(11)(12)(13)(14)(15), the above evidence strongly suggests that at least a portion of the mRNA translated by mitochondrial polysomes is coded for by mit-DNA.Previously (2), no clear-cut evidence of discrete components was observed in the sedimentation patterns of poly(A)-containing RNA from HeLa-cell mitochondria. The main source of difficulty was probably the tendency of poly(A)-containing molecules to aggregate and sediment with heavier molecules.…”
