Title: Synthesis of 5S and 4S RNA in metaphase-arrested HeLa cells. Author: Zylber EA, Penman S. Journal: Science; 1971 May 28; 172(3986):947-9. PubMed ID: 5573566. Abstract: The continued synthesis of both 5S and 4S RNA in metaphase-arrested HeLa cells is demonstrated; 5S RNA is apparently synthesized at approximately 74 percent of the interphase rate, while 4S RNA is synthesized at approximately one-third the rate. The ratio of uridine incorporation to RNA methylation is used to correct for the alteration in the specific activity of the pyrimidine pool during metaphase arrest.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
