The mixing of two histoincompatible human lymphocyte cell lines generated the release of a soluble factor which was capable on non-specifically enhancing the in vitro immune response of normal mouse spleen cells against sheep erythrocytes. The mediator was secreted into the supernatant of the allogeneic cell cultures within 24 h of cultuvation. The human enhancing factor (HEF) must be added to assay cultures on day 2, of a 5-day culture period, for its activity to be manifest. HEF was resistant to DNase, RNase and heating at 56 degrees for 30 min, but was inactivated by exposure to protease or elevated temperature (80 degrees for 30 min). The molecular weight of HEF, purified by ammonium sulphate fractionation, followed by Sephadex gel filtration, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, was approximately 38,000 Daltons.

A new procedure for R17 RNA preparation was devised using a 300 liters fermenter. The key factor in processing such a large quantity is the purification of phage particles prior to RNA extraction. The method involves the preparation of 250 liters of crude lysate, condensation of phage particles by the partition method, purification by DEAE-cellulose column, and removal of adherent proteins by a series of high-salt washes. The method permits preparation of approximately 3 g of phage particles free of ribosomal fragments and RNase. Phage RNA extracted in gram quantities using conventional methods often contain phenol. Thus repeated extraction of R17 RNA with salt-alcohol mixture is required.

The methionine acceptor activity of a crude tRNA from bakers' yeast was resolved into two peaks (I and II) by column chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-25 with a 1 M phosphate system. Methionine tRNA from peak II was not formylated by E. coli methionyl-tRNA transformylase [EC 2.1.2.9.] after being charged with methionine, whereas that from peak I was formylatable under the same conditions. A substantial amount of unlabelled methionine tRNA, tRNAMetm, was highly purified from the peak II fraction by successive chromatographic procedures. The purified tRNAMetm was digested with pancreatic ribonuclease A [EC 3.1.4.22] and ribonuclease T1 [EC 3.1.4.8]. The digestion products were isolated into individual components and completely sequenced. The results of sequence analysis of the two RNase digests were in good agreement and indicated that the chain length of this tRNA is 76, including 13 modified nucleotides. These oligonucleotide fragments can be constructed into a unique total sequence, assuming a few conventional features of clover leaf structure for the tRNA was established by analyses of partial digestion products with RNase T1, as reported in the accompanying paper.

A fraction containing membrane-bound tobacco mosaic virus RNA replicase was isolated form tobacco mosaic virus-infected tobacco callus cultures. The replicase activity reached a maximum 60 h after inoculation and then declined. The enzyme activity was insensitive to actinomycin D and DNase. The corresponding fraction from healthy callus contained essentially no activity. The viral RNA synthesis in vitro proceeded linearly for 30 min and required the four nucleotide triphosphates and Mg2+ ions. Mn2+ was a poor substitute for Mg2+. During RNA synthesis the product was at least 70% resistant to RNase in 2X SSC (0.15 M NaCl plus 0.015 M sodium citrate), but completely digested by RNase in 0.1X SSC. Analysis of the product by polns) that appeared to be replicative form and a partially RNase-resistant structure similar to replicative intermediate form. Washing the membrane-bound replicase with Mg2+-deficient buffer solubilized enzyme. The solubulized enzyme was further purified by DEAE-Sephadex column chromatography. The DEAE-purified enzyme was nearly completely dependent upon tobacco mosaic virus RNA for activity. Analysis of the product on a sucrose gradient revealed a double-stranded RNA with sedimentation of 16S and smaller heterogeneous RNase-sensitive products.

Poly(A)-containing mRNAs labeled with [methyl-3H]methionine were isolated from nucleated erythroid cells obtained from the spleens of anemic mice. The RNAs were further separated into non-globin poly(A)-containing RNAs and highly purified globin mRNA by globin cDNA-cellulose affinity chromatography. DEAE-Sephadex column chromatography of the T2 ribonuclease digestion products of the cDNA-purified globin mRNA fraction yielded methylated resistant fragments with charges of -4.7 (Cap 1) and -5.3 (Cap 2). Digestion of the non-globin RNA fraction revealed a similar pattern with the addition of a methylated mononucleotide identified as 6-methyladenosine at -2 charges. Alkaline phosphatase treatment of the T2 resistant fragments reduced their charges by approximately 2, which is consistent with the removal of one terminal phosphate. Treatment of the globin T2 and alkaline phosphatase-resistant fragments withpenicillium P1 nuclease and alkaline phosphatase yielded a P1-resistant core structure in both fragments. In addition to the core, 2'-O-methylcytidine (Cm) was released from the more negatively charged globin fragment. The P1-resistant cores of the cap structures eluted from DEAE-Sephadex with the known standard m2G5'ppp5'Am and were found to be pyrophosphatase-sensitive establishing a 5'-5'-triphosphate linkage. The pyrophosphatase and alkaline phosphatase digestion products of the globin Cap 1 and Cap 2 core structures were analyzed by high voltage electrophoresis and paper chromatography and found to be 7-methyiguanosine (m7G) and the dimethylated nucleoside 6-methyl-2'-O-methyladenosine (N6mAm). A small amount of the singularly methylated adenosine, 2'-O-methyladenosine (Am) was also observed. The predominant sequences of the methylated nucleosides in the globin cap structures are therefore m7G5'ppp5'N6mAm and m7G5'ppp5'N6mAmpCm.

Extracts of vaccinia-infected HeLa cells were rendered free from infectious virus by centrifugation followed by membrane filtration and were shown to be toxic to uninfected HeLa cells in the presence of hypertonic MgSO4, used as a macromolecular uptake inducer, under conditions which did not kill control cells. Extracts from uninfected cells were nontoxic. This biological test was adapted to a semi-quantitative assay which was used to monitor the purification of the cytotoxic factor by DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-100 chromatography. The cytotoxic factor was purified 100-fold, shown to be of molecular weight 30 -- 100,000 daltons, acidic and completely inactivated by soluble trypsin but not by ribonuclease under conditions believed to degrade both single- and double-stranded RNA species. It was demonstrated to be virus specific by approrpiate immunosorbent chromatography. Extracts were also prepared from vaccinia-infected HEp-2, RK and W-K cells respectively. A virus-specific factor, toxic to uninfected HeLa cells, with similar chromatographic properties to that isolated from infected HeLa cells, was isolated from these three additional cell lines. The concept of virus induced cytotoxins, substances which exert their toxic effect in the host cells in which they are made, is discussed.

A DNA polymerising complex directed by endogenous DNA has been partially purified from 11-day-old embryonic chick brain microsomes by DEAE-cellulose and phosphocellulose column chromatography. The active fractions are eluted together with an exogenous DNA-directed DNA polymerase; after Sephadex gel filtration, the endogenous activity remains associated with a high molecular weight DNA-directed DNA polymerase. The endogenous activity of the complex has been shown to be RNase-resistant and actinomycin-sensitive. It requires potassium, an ATP-regenerating system and all four deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates for full activity. The significance of this activity with regard to the protovirus hypothesis is discussed.

1. Large-scale isolation of tRNA from barley embryos is described, involving: phenol extraction, RNA deproteinization with the chloroform-isoamyl alcohol mixture, batch sorption on DEAE-cellulose, NaCl gradient elution of tRNA from DEAE-cellulose, and deaminoacylation of tRNA in the presence of bentonite. The procedure yielded tRNA free of protein and RNase activity. 2. The amino acid acceptor activity of the crude barley tRNA, its melting profiles and chromatographic patterns on Sephadex G-100 and BD-cellulose were similar to those of tRNA from other sources.
