Purification and Characterization of a Polysome-associated Endoribonuclease That Degrades c-myc mRNA in Vitro

From the McArdle Laboratory for Cancer Research, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706

The regulation of mRNA half-lives is determined by multiple factors, including the activity of the messenger RNases (mRNases) responsible for destroying mRNA molecules. Previously, we used cell-free mRNA decay assays to identify a polysome-associated endonuclease that cleaves c-myc mRNA within the coding region. A similar activity has been solubilized and partially purified from a high salt extract of adult rat liver polysomes. Based on a correlation between protein and enzyme activity, the endonuclease is tentatively identified as a ~39-kDa protein. It cleaves the coding region stability determinant of c-myc mRNA with considerable specificity. Cleavages occur predominantly in an A-rich segment of the RNA. The endonuclease is resistant to RNase A inhibitors, sensitive to vanadyl ribonucleoside complex, and dependent on magnesium. In these and other respects, the soluble enzyme we have purified resembles the polysome-associated c-myc mRNase.
