✦ Synopsis


The question about the nature of promoters in the transcriptional units containing SV-40 sequences in transformed cells was analyzed. It was found that the pulse-labeled RNA hybridizing to SV-40 DNA contains small but significant amounts of triphosphorylated 5 '-ends detected as pppGp in alkaline hydrolyzates of this RNA. In another series of experiments the fragments of RNA containing triphosphorylated 5'-ends about 100 nucleotides in length have been isolated by hydroxyapatite chromatography. Some of them form hybrids with SV-40 DNA. The conclusion is drawn that at least some of SV-40 promoters are used for transcription initiation in SV-40 transformed cells.
