title: The detection of messenger ribonucleic acid sequences in heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleic acid fractions of the oestrogen-stimulated rat uterus.
abstract: cDNA (complementary DNA) complementary to the abundant sequences of mRNA isolated from oestrogen-stimulated uterus was hybridized to polyadenylated and non-polyadenylated uterine hnRNA (heterogeneous nuclear RNA). High-molecular-weight polyadenylated hnRNA, isolated under denaturing conditions, was able to saturate the cDNA, but complementary sequences were low abundance when compared with homologous mRNA. The mRNA sequence content of the polyadenylated hnRNA increased considerably during oestrogen-induced growth of the uterus. Non-polyadenylated hnRNA also contained sequences complementary to the cDNA.
