The rate of deamination of 5'-deoxy-5'-S-isobutylthioadenosine [(iBuS5'Ado] in chick embryo fibroblasts was substantially reduced after their infection and morphological transformation by Rous sarcoma virus. Concomitant with the reduction in rate of (iBuS)5'Ado deamination there was a decrease in
The rapidly-labeled polyribosomal RNA component from mouse sarcoma 180 cells is retained on nitrocellulose (Millipore) membrane-filters at high ionic strength. This property is due to the presence of a polynucleotide sequence rich in adenylic acid that resists both T(1) and pancreatic RNase
The poly(adenylic acid) [poly (A)] segment in mouse sarcoma polysomes in not hydrolyzed by snake venom exonuclease under conditions which cause extensive degradation of the poly(A) in deproteinized polysomal RNA. The protecting effect of polysomes is presumably caused by the interaction between the
Single-stranded polyribonucleotides, which competitively inhibit murine RNA tumor virus reverse transcriptase in vitro, were tested as inhibitors of various virus functions in cell culture. The compounds had two concentration-dependent effects. At high concentrations (100 mug/ml), both poly(adenylic
The 70S genome of two RNA tumor viruses, murine sarcoma virus and avian myeloblastosis virus, binds to Millipore filters in buffer with high salt concentration and to glass fiber filters containing poly(U). These observations suggest that 70S RNA contains adenylic acid-rich sequences. When digested
