A1 - Spring, Herbert A1 - Zentgraf, Hanswalter T1 - Absence of nucleosomes in transcriptionally active chromatin N2 - The ultrastructure of twO kinds of transcription ally active chromatin, the lampbrush chromosome loops and the nucleoli from amphibian oocytes and primary nuclei of the green alga Acetabularia, has been examined after manual isolation and dispersion in low salt media of slightly alkaline pH using various electron microscopic staining techniques (positive staining, metal shadowing, negative staining, preparation on positively charged films, etc.) and compared with the appearance of chromatin from various somatic cells (hen erythrocytes, rat hepatocytes, ClIltured murine sarcoma cells) prepared in parallel. While typical nucleosomes were revealed with all the techniques for chromatin from the latter three cell system, no nucleosomes were identified in either the lampbrush chromosome structures or the nucleolar chromatin. Nucleosomal arrays were absent not only in maximally fibril-covered matrix units but also in fibril-free regions between transcriptional complexes, including the apparent spacer intercepts between different transcriptional units. Moreover, comparisons of the length of the repeating units of rDNA in the transcribed state with those determined in the isolated rDNA and with the lengths of the first stable product of rDNA transcription, the pre-rRNA, demonstrated that the transcribed rDNA was not significantly shortened and/or condensed but rather extended in the transcriptional units. Distinct granules of about nucleosomal size which were sometimes found in apparent spacer regions as well as within matrix units of reduced fibril density were shown not to represent nucleosomes since their number per spacer unit was not inversely correlated with the length of the specific unit and also on the basis of their resistance to treatment with the detergent Sarkosyl NL-30. It is possible to structurally distinguish between transcriptionally active chromatin in which the DNA is extended in a non-nucleosomal form of chromatin and condensed, inactive chromatin within the typical nucleosomal package. The characteristic extended structure of transcriptionally active chromatin is found not only in the transcribed genes but also in non-transcribed regions within or between ("spacer") transcriptional units as well as in transcriptional units that are untranscribed amidst transcribed ones and/or have been inactivated for relatively short time. It is hypothesized that activation of transcription involves a transition from a nucleosomal to an extended chromatin organisation and that this structural transition is not specific for single "activated" genes but may involve larger chromatin regions, including adjacent untranscribed intercepts.

A1 - Sebald, Walter T1 - Identification of two products of mitochondrial protein synthesis associated with mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase from Neurospora crassa N2 - Soluble mitochondrial ATPase (F1) isolated from Neurospora crassa is resolved by dodecylsulfate- gel electrophoresis into five polypeptide bands with apparent molecular weights of 59000, 55000, 36000, 15000 and 12000. At least nine further polypeptides remain associated with ATPase after disintegration of mitochondria with Triton X-100 as shown by the analysis of an immunoprecipitate obtained with antiserum to F 1 A TPase. Two of the associated polypeptides with apparent molecular weights of 19000 and 11000 are translated on mitochondrial ribosomes, as demonstrated by incorporation in vivo of radioactive leueine in the presence of specific inhibitors of mitochondrial (chloramphenicol) and extramitochondrial ( cycloheximide) protein synthesis. The appearance of mitochondrial translation products in the immunoprecipitated A TPase complex is inhibited by' cycloheximide. The same applies for some of the extramitochondrial translation products in the presence of chloramphenicol. This suggests that both types of polypeptides are necessary for the assembly of the A TPase complex.

Mature supercoiled OolE1 DNA molecules synthesized under these conditions have an increased number of tertiary turns as shown by electron microscopy. The monomeric tightly supercoiled molecules possess a slightly slower sedimentation rate and a higher binding capacity for ethidium bromide than supercoiJed monomers synthesized at lower temperatures. Recombination deficient mutants of E. coli recA, recB and recC, which carry the ColE1 plasmid, form about the same amount of catenated molecules at the elevated temperature as a rec+ strain. In addition, we have observed by electron microscopy a small percentage (.--.5% of the circular DNA molecules) of minicircular DNA molecules in all preparations of JC 411 (CoIE1). They are homogenous in size, with a molecular weight of 1.4 X 106 daltons. Addition of chloramphenicol to a culture of Proteus mirabilis (ColE1) leads to an increased amount of higher multiple circular oligomers and to a stimulated accumulation of catenated OolE1 DNA molecules of varying sizes. ColE1 DNA synthesis is more thermosensitive than chromosomal DNA replication in P. mirabili8. Plasmid replication stops completely at temperatures above 43°C.

T1 - Morphology of nucleolar cistrons in a plant cell, Acetabularia mediterranea N2 - The structural organization of transcriptionally active DNA that contains cistrons for precursor molecules of ribosomal RNA is described in positively stained spread preparations from nuclei and nucleoli isolated from the green alga, Acetabularia mediterranea Lmx. These nuclei contain large aggregates of nucleolar subunits in which fibril-covered regions, the putative active cistrons for precursors of ribosomal RNA, alternate with fibril-free intercepts, the "spacers". The length distribution of the different intercepts of this DNA is given, and the pattern is compared with those shown in animal cell systems. The data are discussed in relation to problems of transcription and of amplification of ribosomal RNA genes.

The vegetative phase N2 - The ultrastructure of th e growin g and ma turing primary nucleus of Acetabularia medite rranea and Acetabularia major has been studied with the use of various fi xation procedures. Particular interest has been focused on the deta ils of the nuclear periphery and the perinuclear region. It is demonstrated that early in nuclear grow th a characteristic perinucl ear structura l complex is formed which is, among the eukaryotic cells, unique to Acetabularia and re lated genera. This perinuclear system consists essentially of a) the nuclear envelope with a very hi gh pore frequency and various pore complex assoc iat ion s w ith granular and/or threadlike structures some of which are continuous with the nucleolus; b) an approx imate ly 100 nm thick intermediate zone densely filled with a filam entOus material and occasional sma ll membraneous structures from which the typical cytOplasmic and nuclear organe lles and particles are excl ud ed ; c) an adjacent Iacunar labyrinthum which is interrupted by many plasmatic junction channels between the intermed iate zone and the free cytOplasm; d) numerous dense perinuclear bodies in the juxtanuclear cytOplasm which a re especia lly frequent at the junction channels and reveal a composition of aggregated fibrillar and granul ar structures; e) very dense exclusively fibrill ar agg regates which occur either in assoc iation with t he perinuclear region of the lacunar labyrinthum or, somewhat further out, in the cytOplasmic strands between the bra nches of the lacun ar labyrinthum in the form of slender, characteristic rods or "sausages".

However, limitations of space and the cascading number of pertinent literature articles made it necessary to confine this to one group of membranes and one type of cell wall components. Therefore, we shall begin our survey on the biochemical and cytological aspects of membranes by a review of the class of the pore complex bearing endomembranes, i.e. the nuclear envelope and the annulate lamellae (AL). Next year the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum and the dictyosomes will be dealt with in conjunction with a discussion of the various intracellular vesicles, the tonoplast and the plasmalemma.
