Mitochondrial Dna Synthesis

Temperature-sensitive (ts) A1S9 mouse L cells continue to synthesize double-stranded covalently closed mitochondrial (mt) DNA at a temperature (38.5 °C) which is nonpermissive for chromosomal DNA replication. The amount of mt DNA made appears to be quantitatively linked to nuclear DNA synthesis. Nuclear DNA replication proceeds normally for 6–8 h after the cells are shifted to 38.5 °C, and then declines to reach a minimum at 20–24 h. The level of mt DNA synthesis remains high during this period and decreases once the ts lesion has been established.

Cellular Dna

Temperature-sensitive mutants of polyoma virus have been examined to determine whether they are able to induce the synthesis of cellular DNA under conditions where viral gene products are defective. Two ‘early’ mutants, and one ‘late’ mutant of polyoma induce cellular DNA synthesis normally under conditions where virus growth is inhibited because viral gene products are defective.

Mitochondrial Dna Synthesis

The effects of continuous incubation in hydroxyurea (HU) solutions (0.2, 0.4, 0.8 mg/ml) on germination of rape seeds and growth of young seedling axes were studied during 132 hours from initial soaking. Germination turned out to be unaffected by the treatment. Root growth was first increasingly inhibited by the HU concentration tested, but after prolonged incubation a complete arrest of the root growth was noted at all HU concentrations. The elongation growth of hypocotyls was found to be stimulated by a HU 0.2 mg/ml concentration while it was markedly suppressed by 0.4 mg/ml, and completely arrested by 0.8 mg/ml Inhibition of growth of the upright hypocotyl part at higher HU concentration was found to be accompanied by the unbending of the hooked under-cotyledonary part. It is suggested that inhibition of nuclear endomitotic DNA synthesis In elongating hypocotyl cells, suppresses only partially their growth, whereas a complete inhibition of the hypocotyl growth results from arrest of the mitochondrial DNA synthesis.

Comparison Of Experiments

One hundred and ninety-eight temperature-sensitive mutants of Paramecium tetraurelia were isolated after nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis. In some experiments, mutants were recovered with the aid of a bromouracil (BU) selection system. Fifty-six mutants showed cessation of cell division within one cell cycle at the restrictive temperature and were designated ts-0. Fourteen of the ts-0's showed a greater than 90% reduction in rnacronuclear deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis at the restrictive temperature. Two ts-0. DNA-defective lines continued protein synthesis at greater than 50% the normal rate after arrest of DNA synthesis. Hence, these two mutants may be directly affected in the replication process itself. The two mutants are allelic and, in addition, a third 'leaky' allele was recovered. Comparison of experiments in which either BU selection or no selection was employed shows that a greater than 10-fold enrichment for ts mutants resulted from BU selection.
