In addition, cytochemical reactions of nuclear structures and biochemical determinations of nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA and of genome DNA content were performed. The data obtained and the structures observed are interpreted as demonstralions of transcriptional activities of different gene classes. The most prominent class is the nucleolar cistrons of precursors of ribosomal RNA which occur highly repeated in clusters in the form of regularly alternating intercepts on deoxyribonucleoprotein axes of transcribed rDNA, the fibril-covered matrix units, and the fibril-free "spacer" segments. A description and a classification of the various structural complexes which seem to represent transcriptional activities is given. Quantitative evaluations of these arrangements are presented. The morphology and the dimensions of such structures are compared with the RNA molecular weight determinations and with the corresponding data reported from various animal cell systems. It is suggested that the formation of the giant nucleus is correlated with, and probably due to, an enormous amplification of transcriptionally active rDNA and packing of the extrachromosomal copies into the large nucleolar aggregate bodies.}, subject = {Cytologie}, language = {en} } @article{JacklSebald1974, author = {Jackl, G. and Sebald, Walter}, title = {Identification of two products of mitochondrial protein synthesis associated with oligomycin-sensitive ATPase from Neurospora crassa}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-82093}, year = {1974}, abstract = {no abstract available}, subject = {Physiologische Chemie}, language = {en} } @article{SebaldMachleidtOtto1973, author = {Sebald, Walter and Machleidt, W. and Otto, J.}, title = {Products of mitochondrial protein synthesis in Neurospora crassa.

The mean value of the matrix unit corresponds fairly well to a 2.6 million D peak of pre-rRNA but the distribution of both matrix units and labelled pre-rRNAs shows an asymmetrical heterogeneity indicating the existence of some larger primary transcription products of rDNA.
