Abstract:
:Interferon induces the synthesis of an enzyme which synthesizes 2',5'-oligoadenylate [2',5'-oligo(A)] when activated by double-stranded RNA. The 2',5'-oligo(A) in turn activates an endonuclease (RNase L). Concentrations of 2',5'-oligo(A) sufficient to activate RNase L are formed in interferon-treated HeLa cells infected with reovirus, and a large fraction of cellular mRNA is degraded (T. W. Nilsen, P. A. Maroney, and C. Baglioni, J. Virol. 42:1039-1045, 1982). We report here that in spite of this mRNA degradation, protein synthesis was not significantly inhibited in these cells. When mRNA synthesis was inhibited with 5,6-dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosylbenzimidazole, protein synthesis was markedly decreased, as shown by reduced incorporation of labeled amino acids and a decrease in polyribosomes. This suggested that the turnover of mRNA could be compensated for by increased production of mRNA. The relative concentration of specific mRNAs was measured with cloned cDNA probes. The amount of these mRNAs present in control cells was comparable to that in interferon-treated cells infected with reovirus, whereas it was decreased in the latter cells treated with 5,6-dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosylbenzimidazole.
