摘要:
We have designed hammerhead ribozymes that cleave c-Ha-ras mRNA mutated at codon 12 (GGU --> GUU). Plasmids containing the ribozyme-encoding genes were expressed under the control of the long terminal repeats of Rous sarcoma virus in NIH3T3 cells transfected with the activated c-Ha-ras gene. These ribozymes were found to inhibit formation of foci (by about 50%) by cleaving the oncogene mRNA, rather than by hybridizing to it. Furthermore, when the activated c-Ha-ras gene was cotransfected with the ribozyme-encoding gene, three morphologically flat colonies were found and isolated. We also found that expression of c-Ha-ras was suppressed in cells containing ribozymes.
