Association of rapidly-labelled RNAs with actin in nuclear matrix from mouse L5178Y cells.
    Experimental cell research, 1985, Volume: 160, Issue:2

    More than 90% of rapidly-labelled nuclear RNA was associated with a nuclear matrix prepared from mouse leukemia L5178Y cells. The binding was not affected with up to 4 M NaCl; however, these RNAs were released from the nuclear matrix by treatment with a low ionic strength buffer (5 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 7.5, containing 1 mM ATP, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 0.2 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and 0.4 mM calcium chloride), without destruction of the sphere of the nuclear matrix. Actin filaments in the nuclear matrix were depolymerized with this buffer accompanied with rapidly-labelled RNAs. When the depolymerization was inhibited by slight modifications of the low ionic strength buffer (replacement of ATP by the same concentration of GTP; replacement of calcium ion by the same concentration of magnesium ion; addition of 20 micrograms/ml of phalloidine, which is a specific inhibitor of actin depolymerization), the release of rapidly-labelled RNAs from the nuclear matrix was also inhibited. The complex containing rapidly-labelled RNAs and matrix proteins was solubilized by a sonication from the nuclear matrix, and subjected to cesium chloride equilibrium centrifugation. Rapidly-labelled RNAs were concentrated on the bottom of the gradient accompanied with a small number of proteins (68K, 60K, 43K and 40K). The 43K protein was identified as actin by immunoblotting. By RNase digestion before equilibrium centrifugation, actin in the bottom fractions disappeared. These results suggest that rapidly-labelled RNAs anchor on the actin filaments in the nuclear matrix.
