title: The effect of three cryoprotective diluents on the in vitro transcription of ram sperm cells.
abstract: The effect of three different solvents was investigated in run-on experiments, using purified ram sperm nuclei. The best cryoprotective diluent proved to be Nagase-Niwa, which had the most positive effect on transcription. The kinetic data of incorporation of 32P-ATP in pre-mRNA indicated that there was a stepwise increase in the level of transcription during the first 20 min of incubation, being lowest in the control and highest in the presence of the diluent Nagase-Niwa.
