Abstract

We used direct microinjection of poly(A)+RNA into individual hypoxanthine/guanine phosphoribosyltransferase-deficient or thymidine kinase-deficient cells and detected the specific in vivo translation products as an assay for human hypoxanthine/guanine phosphoribosyltransferase or thymidine kinase mRNAs. The incorporation of [3H]hypoxanthine or [3H]thymidine into cells in response to injected mRNA was assayed in situ by autoradiography. Methylmercuric hydroxide/agarose gel analysis showed that human hypoxanthine/guanine phosphoribosyltransferase mRNA contains approximately 1,530 nucleotides, which is twice the number required for its protein coding capacity. The mRNA for human cytoplasmic thymidine kinase is estimated to be approximately the same length; thus, the size of the cytosol thymidine kinase subunit can be predicted to be approximately 47,000 daltons, if the full coding capacity of its mRNA is utilized.
