[Abstract] Polysome profile analysis is a frequently performed task in translational control research that not only enables direct monitoring of the efficiency of translation but can easily be extended with a wide range of downstream applications such as Northern and western blotting, genome-wide microarray analysis or qRT-PCR. Here, we describe a method for the isolation and quantification of high-quality polysome-bound mRNA complexes from small quantities of liquid-nitrogen-frozen solid tissue samples of rice shoots/roots. The mRNA obtained can be further analyzed by methods that evaluate polysomal mRNA abundance at the individual transcript or global level.
[摘要] Polysome谱分析是翻译控制研究中经常执行的任务,不仅能够直接监测翻译的效率,而且可以很容易地扩展到广泛的下游应用,如Northern和western印迹,全基因组微阵列分析或qRT- PCR。 在这里,我们描述了一种从少量液氮冷冻固体组织样本的水稻芽/根中分离和定量高质量多糖结合mRNA复合物的方法。 获得的mRNA可以通过在单个转录物或全局水平评估多核糖体mRNA丰度的方法进一步分析。

[Abstract] During mRNA translation, 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits bind to target mRNA forming into an 80S complex (monosome). This ribosome moves along the mRNA during translational elongation to facilitate tRNA reading codon, where translation is activated and many monosomes can bind the same mRNA simutaneously, which forms polysomes. Polysomes can be size-fractionated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The more specific mRNA in polysomes implies more active translational status of the mRNA.
[摘要] 在mRNA翻译期间,40S和60S核糖体亚基结合靶mRNA形成80S复合物(单体)。 这种核糖体在翻译延长过程中沿着mRNA移动以促进tRNA阅读密码子,其中翻译被激活并且许多单体可以同时结合相同的mRNA,其形成多核糖体。 多聚体可以通过蔗糖密度梯度离心进行大小分级。 多核糖体中更特异的mRNA意味着mRNA的更有活性的翻译状态。
