  • Title: In vivo uptake of mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase from watermelon by mitochondria of Xenopus laevis oocytes.
    Author: Sautter C.
    Journal: Eur J Cell Biol; 1986 Aug; 41(2):263-9. PubMed ID: 3758084.
    Abstract:
    The heterologous in vivo translation system of Xenopus laevis oocytes was used to translate messenger RNA isolated from water-melon cotyledons. Immunocytochemistry was used to localize the translation products in situ within the oocyte. In addition, the translation products were immunoprecipitated from homogenized oocytes, separated on SDS-polyacrylamide electrophoresis and visualized by fluorography. A variety of watermelon proteins encoded in the injected mRNA were translated within the oocytes. Among them was the mitochondrial isoenzyme of malate dehydrogenase (mtMDH). The mtMDH was correctly imported into the mitochondria of the oocytes, as detected by immunocytochemistry.
