In vertebrate oocytes, meiotic progression is driven by the sequential translational activation of maternal messenger RNAs stored in the cytoplasm. This activation is mainly induced by the cytoplasmic elongation of their poly(A) tails, which is mediated by the cytoplasmic polyadenylation

RNase L activated by 2-5A (a series of 2'-5'-linked adenylic oligoribonucleotides) is a key enzyme of the interferon system. To study RNase L (endonuclease L) in intact cells independently of intracellular 2-5A and of its activity, we have developed polyclonal

The bluetongue virus ssRNA-binding protein, NS2, is a phosphoprotein that forms viral inclusion bodies in infected cells. Recombinant NS2 was expressed in the baculovirus expression system and purified to homogeneity from insect cells. Purified NS2 bound nucleosides. Further investigation revealed

The stoichiometry of GTP hydrolysis during peptide elongation in the processes of codon-specific translation and misreading of polyuridylic acid was determined in a cell-free system in which all ribosomes were active in peptide synthesis. Ribosomes carrying oligophenylalanine presynthesized on poly(U)

We have used two approaches to identify possible substrates of the insulin receptor (IR) tyrosine kinase. First, we used a potent tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, phenylarsine oxide (PAO), which is reported to be specific for the insulin-induced signal transduction route, to
