Isolation of ribosomal subunits containing intact rRNA from human placenta: estimation of functional activity of 80S ribosomes
Anal Biochem.

Abstract
We have elaborated a method for the isolation of ribosomal subunits from fresh unfrozen human placenta containing intact rRNA and a complete set of ribosomal proteins. Activity of 80S ribosomes obtained by reassociation of 40S and 60S subunits in nonenzymatic poly(U)-dependent binding of Phe-tRNA(Phe) was equal to 80% (above 1.5 mol [14C]Phe-tRNA(Phe) is coupled to 1 mol of ribosomes). The activity of 80S ribosomes in poly(U)-directed synthesis of polyphenylalanine was tested in a polysome-free protein-synthesizing system from rabbit reticulocytes. About 100 mol of phenylalanine residue was polymerized by a mole of ribosomes at a rate of 0.83 residues per minute in this system (2 h, 37 degrees C).
