Purification of Mouse Immunoglobulin Heavy‐Chain Messenger RNAs from Total Myeloma Tumor RNA

AUFFRAY, Charles, ROUGEON, François·1980·European Journal of Biochemistry

Abstract

A procedure is described for the large‐scale purification of light (L) and heavy (H) chain mRNAs from plasmacytomas produced in mice. Intact RNA is selectively precipitated in high yield from frozen tumors homogenized in 3 M LiCl and 6 M urea. L and H‐chain mRNAs were purified by oligo(dT)‐cellulose chromatography and either sucrose gradient centrifugation in conditions preventing aggregation or by means of high‐resolution preparative gel electrophoresis under non‐denaturing conditions. γ2a and α H‐chain mRNAs sedimented as major components at 15.5 S and 16.5 S respectively, when L‐chain mRNAs sedimented as 12‐S species. H‐chain mRNAs isolated by continuous elution during preparative gel electrophoresis were completely separated from both L‐chain mRNA and residual 18‐S rRNA, and migrated as single components of 1900 ± 50 nucleotides on analytical denaturing gels. The partially purified H‐chain mRNAs were translated into major components of molecular weights of 56000 (γ2a) and 60000 (α) in an mRNA‐dependent rabbit reticulocyte lysate, whereas L‐chain mRNAs yielded polypeptides of molecular weights of 25000 (λ) and 27000 (к). Up to 95% of the translation products directed by the purified mRNAs were immunoprecipitated using specific antisera. The purity of L and H‐chain mRNAs was assessed by hybridization of corresponding cDNAs with excess recombinant plasmid DNA. The results indicated a minimum purity of 47% (γ2a), 62% (α), for H‐chain mRNAs and 60% (к), for L‐chain mRNAs.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
