abstract = {The nucleotide analysis of a cytoplasmic tRNA(Leu) isolated from bovine liver revealed the presence of an unknown modified nucleotide N. The corresponding N nucleoside was isolated by different enzymatic and chromatographic protocols from a partially purified preparation of this tRNA(Leu). Its chemical characterization was determined from its chromatographic properties, UV-absorption spectroscopy and mass spectrometric measurements, as well as from those of the borohydride reduced N nucleoside and its etheno-trimethylsilyl derivative. The structure of N was established as 2'-O-methyl-5-formylcytidine (f5CM), and its reduced derivative as 2'-O-methyl-5-hydroxy-methylcytidine (om5Cm). By sequencing the bovine liver tRNA(Leu), the structure of the anticodon was determined as f5CmAA. In addition, the nucleotide sequence showed two primary structures differing only by the nucleotide 47c which is either uridine or adenosine. The two slightly differing bovine liver tRNAs-Leu(f5CmAA) are the only tRNAs so far sequenced which contain f5Cm. The role of such a modified cytidine at the first position of the anticodon is discussed in terms of decoding properties for the UUG and UUA leucine codons. Recently, precise evidence was obtained for the presence of f5Cm at the same position in tRNAs(Leu)(NAA) isolated from rabbit and lamb liver. Therefore, the 2'-O-methyl-5-formyl modification of cytidine at position 34 could be a general feature of cytoplasmic tRNAs(Leu)(NAA) in mammals.},

In addition, special attention is given to guanine replacement of queuine in the first position of the anticodon of tRNAs. A correlation between the level of this undermodification in cancer tissues and the malignancy grading could be found in human ovarian tumors, confirming the results reported in several laboratories for lymphomas and lung cancer tissues. Indeed tRNAs from primary and metastatic human ovarian malignant tumors are Q deficient as compared to tRNAs from normal tissues or benign tumors: thus queuine deficiency increases with malignancy and grading of differentiation.},

Recent improvements to the technique have shown that the resistance of adducted DNA to enzyme digestion may lead to an overestimation of the number of different adducts present in a sample.},

abstract = {The tRNAs from rapidly growing tissues, particularly from neoplasia, often exhibit queuine deficiency. In order to check whether different kinds of ovarian tumors display queuine deficiencies we have analyzed tRNA samples from 16 ovarian malignancies. The tRNAs from histologically normal myometrium (4 samples) and myoma (6 samples) were taken as healthy tissue and benign tumor references. Queuine deficiency was determined by an exchange assay using [8-3H]guanine and tRNA:guanine transglycosylase from Escherichia coli. The mean values of queuine deficiencies in tRNAs were: 10.95 +/- 2.21 (SD) pmol/A260 in gonadal and germ cell tumors (5 cases); 23.75 +/- 7.89 pmol/A260 in primary epithelial tumors (9 cases); and 34.58 +/- 7.18 pmol/A260 in metastatic tumors (2 cases). These values displayed statistically significant differences (P = 0.0003, Kruskal-Wallis test). The queuine deficiencies in tRNAs significantly increased when moving from well-differentiated through moderately differentiated to poorly differentiated tumors, with the highest values found in poorly differentiated metastatic tumors (P = 0.0002, Kruskal-Wallis test). Queuine deficiency determination in tRNAs is proposed as a factor for clinical outcome prognosis of ovarian malignancies.},

Lowest level of m5dC in relation to C and also in relation to total DNA was found in carcinoma embryonal tissue whereas maximal DNA methylation level was obtained in folliculoma tissue. This preliminary report needs further investigation of particularly genes methylation.},

abstract = {Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of HeLa cell prosomal RNAs, 3'-end labeled by RNA ligase, revealed one prominent spot. Determination of a partial sequence at the 3'-end indicated full homology to the 18 nucleotides at the 3'-end of tRNA(Lys,3) from rabbit, the bovine and the human species. An oligonucleotide complementary to the 3'-end of tRNA(Lys,3) hybridized on Northern blots with prosomal RNA from both HeLa cells and duck erythroblasts. In two-dimensional PAGE, the major pRNA of HeLa cells co-migrated with bovine tRNA(Lys,3). Reconstitution of the CCA 3'-end of RNA from both human and duck prosomes, by tRNA-nucleotidyl-transferase, confirmed the tRNA character of this type of RNA. Furthermore, it revealed at least one additional tRNA band about 85 nt long among the prosomal RNA from both species. Finally, confirming an original property of prosomal RNA, we show that in vitro synthesized tRNA(Lys,3) hybridizes stably to duck globin mRNA, and to poly(A)(+)- and poly(A)(-)-RNA from HeLa cells.},
