Mitochondrial Dna Synthesis

Cortical cells of fetal rat adrenals in tissue culture were treated with 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) during their proliferative phase and during ACTH stimulation when nuclear DNA synthesis has almost ceased. Pretreatment with 0.5 mug/ml/day of BrdU inhibited the ACTH-induced differentiation of cortical cells as well as the secretion of corticosterone and 18-OH-deoxycorticosterone (18-OHDOC). When nuclear DNA synthesis was suppressed and mitochondrial DNA synthesis was stimulated by ACTH BrdU addition (30 mug/ml/day) permitted normal untrastructural differentiation of cortical cells, except that the development of mitochondrial inner membranes was inhibited. Simultaneously mitochondrial inner membranes was inhibited. Simultaneously mitochondrial 11beta- and 18-hydroxylations were strongly inhibited while cytoplasmic 21-hydroxylation was not affected.

Mitochondrial Dna Synthesis

Temperature-sensitive (ts) A1S9 mouse L cells continue to synthesize double-stranded covalently closed mitochondrial (mt) DNA at a temperature (38.5 °C) which is nonpermissive for chromosomal DNA replication. The amount of mt DNA made appears to be quantitatively linked to nuclear DNA synthesis. Nuclear DNA replication proceeds normally for 6–8 h after the cells are shifted to 38.5 °C, and then declines to reach a minimum at 20–24 h. The level of mt DNA synthesis remains high during this period and decreases once the ts lesion has been established.

Mitochondrial Dna Synthesis

The effects of continuous incubation in hydroxyurea (HU) solutions (0.2, 0.4, 0.8 mg/ml) on germination of rape seeds and growth of young seedling axes were studied during 132 hours from initial soaking. Germination turned out to be unaffected by the treatment. Root growth was first increasingly inhibited by the HU concentration tested, but after prolonged incubation a complete arrest of the root growth was noted at all HU concentrations. The elongation growth of hypocotyls was found to be stimulated by a HU 0.2 mg/ml concentration while it was markedly suppressed by 0.4 mg/ml, and completely arrested by 0.8 mg/ml Inhibition of growth of the upright hypocotyl part at higher HU concentration was found to be accompanied by the unbending of the hooked under-cotyledonary part. It is suggested that inhibition of nuclear endomitotic DNA synthesis In elongating hypocotyl cells, suppresses only partially their growth, whereas a complete inhibition of the hypocotyl growth results from arrest of the mitochondrial DNA synthesis.
