Amphibian oocyte transcription

Amphibian oocyte nuclei contain numerous extra-chromosomal nuclei, each of which contains a tandem array of genes encoding ribosomal RNA. Active transcription is seen by the tree-like structures in which each branch represents a growing transcript. Untranscribed spacer DNA is seen between each transcript.


Methods developed by O.L. Miller Jr. and colleagues, the extra-chromosomal nuclei from a newt oocyte have been dispersed in low salt, and centrifuged through a sucrose cushion containing formaldehyde on to a carbon coated grid.
