Saturating concentrations of the initiation-specific inhibitors poly(I) and T-2 toxin inhibit protein synthesis by over 35% and cause ribosome 'run-off' from the polyribosomes. The elongation-specific inhibitor cycloheximide totally prevents protein synthesis and 'freezes' the ribosomes in the pattern of unincubated controls. These results prove that our Tetrahymena extracts are capable of protein-synthesis initiation, a conclusion which is confirmed by a 30% inhibition of synthesis by the mRNA cap analogue, 7-methylguanosine 5'-monophosphate.
起始特异性抑制剂多聚肌苷酸(poly(I))和T-2毒素的饱和浓度可使蛋白质合成抑制超过35%,并导致核糖体从多核糖体上“脱落”。延伸特异性抑制剂环己酰亚胺完全阻止蛋白质合成,并使核糖体“定格”在未孵育对照组的模式。这些结果证明,我们的四膜虫提取物能够进行蛋白质合成起始,这一结论通过mRNA帽类似物7-甲基鸟苷5'-单磷酸对合成的30%抑制得到证实。
