Proportional polyploidization of 5S RNA genes in the ovary of Drosophila melanogaster mutants containing three 5S RNA gene loci.

Abstract:

:The 5S RNA gene content of polyploid cells of the ovary of Drosophila melanogaster has been compared in animals with two or three gene clusters. The amount of 5S RNA genes is exactly proportional to the number of gene clusters as determined by DNA-RNA filter hybridization. In contrast, the number of rDNA genes in endomitotic cells remains constant regardless of different numbers of nucleolus organizer regions (Spear, 1974).

  • Conversion of post-elongation stage DNA to mature DNA occurs even if movement of the replication fork has stopped.

    abstract::During DNA synthesis there is a distinct stage immediately after the joining of large DNA replication intermediates (post-elongation stage). The conversion of this DNA to mature DNA was analysed in cells treated with aphidicolin to stop the movement of the replication fork. In such cells mature DNA is formed. In contr...
