✦ Synopsis

We have examined some aspects of the biosynthesis of human small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). The sensitivity of U5 and U4 snRNA synthesis to a-amanitin in whole cells suggests that RNA polymerase I I is involved in the synthesis of these RNA species, in addition to that of U1, U2, and U3 snRNA. Two RNA bands were detected, whose properties are compatible with being U3 and U4 RNA precursors. The cytoplasmic U1 RNA precursor (pU1) was retained by an anti-RNP antibody column, while the cytoplasmic precursors to U1 and U2 (pU2) RNA were immunoprecipitated by monoclonal anti-Sm antibodies. Therefore, soon after their transcription, these cytoplasmic RNA precursors assemble with the polypeptides which bear the RNP (pU1) and Sm (pU1 and pU2) antigenic determinants. It has been shown before that, shortly after protein synthesis is interrupted, the apparent cytoplasmic-+nuclear transition of newly made U2 RNA is inhibited, while U2 RNA transcription is not. The present data indicate that the trimming of the U2 RNA precursor to mature U2 RNA is not affected early after suppression of protein synthesis.

There are gaps in what is known about the metabolism of some mammalian small RNA species. Our present observations can be summarized as follows. The level of radiolabeled mature U1 KNA doubled between 2 and 24 hr of label chase, while that of all other small RNA species tested did not change. These

The small molecular weight monodisperse nuclear RNA's are synthesized in contact-inhibited cultures of 3T3 cells. The level of synthesis of these RNA's, and of ribosomal and transfer RNA's, appears to be oiily 8-20% of that observed in growing cultures. The synthesis of all of these relatively stabl
