Abstract
Noradrenaline added to perfused rabbit heart previously perfused with labelled precursors causes, after 2.5 and 5.0 min, a general increase of specific radioactivity or RNA in subcellular fractions, but no augmentation of acetylation of F2a2 and F2a1 histone fractions and no stimulation of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase activities. Synthesis of spermidine and spermine is enhanced at 10.0 min of treatment, when there is also a fall in specific radioactivity of RNA. The cytoplasmic Mn2+-stimulated polyadenylate polymerase activity is strongly enhanced 30s to 2.5 min after injection of noradrenaline or of dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Both the cyclic nucleotide and noradrenaline have no influence in vitro on the polyadenylate polymerase reaction.
