Electrophoretically homogeneous messenger RNA for rat preproinsulin has been prepared from an islet cell tumor by the use of oligo(dT(-cellulose chromatography and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The molecular weight of the mRNA is about 210,000, as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in formamide, and its sedimentation coefficient is 9.3 S in sucrose gradients containing 0.2 M NaCl. These results indicate that the synthesis of preproinsulin is directed by a monocistronic mRNA 600 nucleotides in length and requires approximately 55% of the molecule's coding capacity.
通过使用寡聚(dT)-纤维素层析和蔗糖密度梯度离心法,从胰岛细胞瘤中制备了大鼠胰岛素原前体的电泳均一信使核糖核酸(mRNA)。通过在甲酰胺中进行聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳测定,该mRNA的分子量约为210,000,在含有0.2M氯化钠的蔗糖梯度中其沉降系数为9.3S。这些结果表明,胰岛素原前体的合成由长度为600个核苷酸的单顺反子mRNA指导,并且需要该分子约55%的编码能力。
