Robert J. Schwartz,* Jay A. Haron, Katrina N. Rothblum, and Achilles Dugaiczyk abstract: a-Actin is found exclusively in skeletal muscle tissue and appears to be induced during myogenesis. The mechanism underlying the induction of muscle gene tran-scription can be studied with a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) probe complementary to the a-actin messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) sequence. Such a probe was produced by cloning complementary DNA (cDNA) transcribed from a breast muscle RNA preparation enriched for actin mRNA. Double-stranded DNA was inserted into the Pstl restriction site of plasmid pBR322, and the resulting hybrid DNA molecules were used to transform Escherichia coli RR1. Bacterial colonies were preliminarily screened by hybridization to two different [32P] cDNA preparations, ie, one of which contained sequences of a-actin mRNA and its major contaminant, while the other contained only the major contaminant sequence. The presence of an actin-specific gene insert was documented in plasmid pAC269 with translation assays. Total muscle mRNA was hybridized to pAC269 DNA-cellulose, and the hybridized message was then eluted and translated in a mRNA-dependent reticulocyte lysate. The mRNA which hybridized to pAC269 directed the translation of a protein of 42 000 Mr which was subsequently identified as actin by electrophoretic mobility (one and two dimensions), deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) affinity, and cyanylation peptide mapping. Restriction en-donuclease and heteroduplex mapping of pAC269 detected a 1.4-kilobase insert which is~ 95% of the previously measured length of the actin mRNA. When pAC269 was used as a hybridization probe, it was found that the muscle-specific a-actin sequence hadonly a 70% homology with thenonmuscle/3-and y-actin sequences. Also a difference of 13 C was observed in thermal melts between muscle and nonmuscle actin mRNAs hybridizedto pAC269. These differences in hom-ology and thermal melting will allow the specific quantitation of actin mRNA content during myogenesis and should also aid in the identification of the a-actin natural gene. e actins are a family of contractileproteins found in all eukaryotic cells (Garrels & Gibson, 1976; Storti et al., 1976;
