Developmental changes in levels of translatable mRNAs for enolase isozymes in chicken brain.

Using chicken brain mRNAs, alpha and gamma enolase precursors were synthesized in the rabbit reticulocyte cell-free translation system. The product proteins showed molecular weights almost identical to those of the mature subunits. The levels of translatable mRNAs for alpha and gamma subunits were determined by the cell-free translation system and immunoprecipitation with specific antisera, during development of chicken brain. The level of alpha mRNA was high at any developmental stage of the brain. On the other hand, the gamma mRNA level was very low at the early embryonic stage, and increased rapidly during development of the brain. These changes were closely correlated with those of the corresponding enzyme activities, indicating that the levels of enolase activities in developing brain were controlled primarily by the level of the translatable alpha and gamma mRNAs.[1]
