The mRNA for the lipoprotein of the Escherichia coli outer membrane has been purified to 85% homogeneity. The purification procedure involved phenol extraction, NaCl extraction, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and Sephadex G-200, and reversed-phase column chromatography on RPC-5. The purity of the final product was estimated to be 85% by analysis of the ribonuclease T1 fingerprint of the mRNA. The purified mRNA was able to direct the synthesis of cross-reactive material with antilipoprotein serum in both the E. coli and the wheat germ cell-free protein-synthesizing systems. The size of the mRNA was determined to be 8.2 S from its mobility in polyacrylamide--agrose gels. During the purification, two other RNA species, similar in size to the lipoprotein mRNA, were also isolated. Their sizes were determined to be 8.7 and 9.1 S. They both were inactive in an E. coli cell-free protein-synthesizing system.

Incubation of isolated rat liver mitochondria with radioactive amino acids resulted in the charging of tRNAs for arginine, asparagine, leucine, lysine, methionine, proline and valine. The aminoacyl-tRNAs were shown to be distinct from their cytosolic counterparts by chromatography on RPC-5. By electrophoresis on urea polyacrylamide slab gels it was found that all these mitochondrial aminoacyl-tRNAs were about 70-76 nucleotides long. The unique mitochondrial asparaginyl- and prolyl-tRNAs, not previously identified in mammalian cells, were shown to hybridize to mtDNA. Mitochondrial leucyl-tRNA separated into 3 peaks on RPC-5 and the first species was shown to be different than a combination of the other two by molecular size and partial RNase T1 digestion patterns. Each was coded by a separate gene on mtDNA as shown by partial additivity of hybridization. Separate genes for mitochondrial tRNAMetm and tRNAMetf, separated by RPC-5 chromatography, were also demonstrated. These results bring to 21 the number of individual tRNAs coded by mammalian mtDNA.
