Crude RNA preparations from uteri of oestradiol-treated rats induced the implantation of delayed blastocysts when injected into the parametrium of ovariectomized pregnant rats. Treatment of donor animals with labelled oestradiol showed that this effect could not be due to contamination of the RNA extracts by oestradiol. RNase digestion of these extracts suppressed their capacity to induce implantation. Purified poly (A)-rich RNA from oestrogen-treated uteri failed to elicit implantation although it was capable of increasing epithelial height when repeatedly injected into uterine horns of ovariectomized rats. These results suggest that uterine RNA synthesis might somehow mediate the effects of oestrogen in causing implantation and that RNAs other than messenger RNA might be involved.

ABSTRACT 3″,5″ cyclic-AMP (cAMP) will stimulate the rate of tryptophanase synthesis in Escherichia coli cultures induced with tryptophan. Adding cAMP after the initiation of messenger RNA synthesis was blocked by rifampicin, did not stimulate tryptophanase synthesis. This indicates that cAMP acts at initiation of either transcription or translation and not at the level of chain elongation of either the messenger or the polypeptide chain.
