Some properties of the protein and nucleic acid of oat necrotic mottle virus

TL;DR: In this paper, the protein and nucleic acid properties of oat necrotic mottle virus were investigated and some properties of the virus were discussed, including the properties of proteins and nuclei.

Properties of a solubilized replicase isolated from corn infected with maize dwarf mosaic virus

TL;DR: An RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (replicase) activity which catalyzes the polymerization of ribonucleotides into an acid-insoluble product has been isolated and solubilized from the leaves of maize dwarf mosaic virus infected maize.

Wheat streak mosaic virus-induced cytoplasmic expansion and membrane proliferation

TL;DR: The presence of apparently intermediate stages in myelin-like structure development in chloroplasts suggest that at least some of the myelin of wheat streak mosaic virus-infected cells originated from the chloroplAST.

Viruses of the Potyviridae with non-aphid vectors.

TL;DR: Viruses of the Potyviridae induce cytoplasmic cylindrical inclusions in their hosts whether their vectors are aphids, non-aphids, or are unknown, and these viruses have related inclusion body gene sequences.

Purification of viral RNA by means of bentonite.

TL;DR: A technique is described for the isolation of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) of higher purity and, as will be shown in the subsequent paper, of increased stability.

Assembly and Stability of the Tobacco Mosaic Virus Particle

TL;DR: The structural and physical chemical studies on TMV considered in this chapter provide a picture of the way in which the viral nucleic acid is packaged for transmission, and illustrate some general principles regarding the molecular organization of biological structures.

Spectrophotometric determination of microgram quantities of protein without nucleic acid interference

TL;DR: A spectrophotometric method which eliminates interference due to nucleic acid absorbance has been developed for determining protein concentration over the range of 5 to 180 μg/ml and the results obtained have been compared to those obtained with the Folin-Lowry and microbiuret methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dependence of the sedimentation coefficient on molecular weight of RNA after reaction with formaldehyde.

TL;DR: Reaction with formaldehyde has been used to denature the bihelical regions of RNA and convert the polynucleotides into random coils characterized by a single equation relating the logarithm of the sedimentation coefficient to that of the molecular weight.

Some Problems Concerning the Macromolecular Structure of Ribonucleic Acids

TL;DR: The chapter describes that phenol deproteinization involves the treatment of biological material with water-saturated phenol, provides immediate and practically complete inactivation of nucleases, causes no degradation of polyribonucleotide chains during the isolation procedure, completely removes the proteins, and thus secures a high purity of the RNA preparation.
