  • Title: Separation of specific initiation factors involved in the translation of myosin and myoglobin messenger RNAs and the isolation of a new RNA involved in translation.
    Author: Heywood SM, Kennedy DS, Bester AJ.
    Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A; 1974 Jun; 71(6):2428-31. PubMed ID: 4526305.
    Abstract:
    Two messenger specific factors, phosphocellulose fractions 3 and 4, have been isolated from the initiation factor 3 fraction of red muscle initiation factors by chromatography on phosphocellulose. When added to a reticulocyte cell-free system containing both myoglobin and myosin mRNAs, phosphocellulose fraction 3 is found to specifically stimulate the synthesis of myoglobin while phosphocellulose fraction 4 is found to specifically stimulate the synthesis of myosin. In addition, a new RNA, isolated from the initiation factor 3 fraction, is shown to specifically inhibit the translation of heterologous mRNAs.
