1. α-Amanitin inhibits in vitro the RNA polymerase solubilized from isolated rat liver nuclei. 2. In contrast with previous observations with whole nuclei, the inhibition occurs approximately to the same extent in the presence and in the absence of ammonium sulphate. 3. Evidence is presented that the toxin acts by interacting with the enzyme itself and not with DNA or other components.

1. The effects of various ions on the Mg2+- and Mn2+/ammonium sulphate-activated RNA polymerase activities of isolated liver nuclei were studied. 2. The Mg2+-activated RNA polymerase reaction was inhibited by more than 60% by Cd2+, SeO32−, Be2+, Cu2+, Co2+, Ca2+ and La3+, all at 1mm concentrations. 3. The Mn2+/ammonium sulphate-activated RNA polymerase reaction was strongly inhibited by Hg2+, Cd2+, Cu2+ and Ag+. The effect of Hg2+, Cd2+ and Ag+ was relieved by cysteine or mercaptoethanol. 4. Inhibition by Cu2+ was not affected by addition of DNA, and was relieved only partially by EDTA or histidine. 5. No changes of RNA polymerase activities were observed in nuclei isolated from the liver of rats treated with copper albuminate.

A cell-free system of isolated rat liver nuclei is described which permits an active incorporation of newly synthesized RNA into ‘dense’ ribonucleoprotein-like materials. The reaction is stimulated with increasing amounts of cytosol protein isolated from rat liver. This indicates that cytosol protein plays an important role in the formation of such material.
