## Abstract At various times following estorgen administration, the nuclear matrix was isolated from the liver of male Xenopus laevis by sucrose gradient centrifugation of nuclei treated with a high‐salt buffer and DNase I in the presence of a proteolytic inhibitor (PMSC ‐ phenylmethyl sulfonyl chl

✦ Synopsis
Ha-Uridine microinjected in the giant axons of the squid is incorporated in a TCA insoluble material. There is no difference between stimulated and resting axons as to the amount incorporated.
The amount incorporated is increased if the stimulation precedes the microinjection of the tracer.
RNA was purified and characterized from the axoplasm, axon sheaths and from a purified membrane preparation obtained from squid retinal nerve.

## Abstract Previous work has revealed that 4S RNA is the primary species of RNA in the axoplasm from the giant axons of the squid and __Myxicola.__ This study shows that axoplasmic 4S RNA from the squid giant axon has the functional properties of tRNA. Axoplasmic RNA was charged with amino acids b
Giant squid axons were microinjected with serine, valine and leucine-C14 under controlled electrophysiological conditions. These amino acids are incorporated into TCA insoluble fraction in the isolated axon. This incorporation is higher in the stimulated axons as compared to non-stimulated ones. By
Previously, we reported the presence of a heterogeneous population of mRNAs in the squid giant axon. The construction of a cDNA library to this mRNA population has facilitated the identification of several of the constituent mRNAs which encode several cytoskeletal and motor proteins as well as enola
