RESUMO
R-DNA polymerase, D-DNA polymerase, DNase and RNase H activities in mitochondria from chick embryonic brain were studied by ion-exchange chromatography. Two main fractions were separated according to their chromatographic behaviour: a fraction M Ib which is eluted with the washing buffer from two successive DEAE-cellulose columns and a fraction M IV which is eluted at 400 mM KC1 from a phosphocellulose column. Although the two fractions contain both the DNA polymerase and the degrading activities, all the specific activities are higher in fraction M IV than in fraction M Ib. Heat inactivation experiments have shown that R-DNA polymerase is inactivated in both fractions, whereas RNase H and DNase are not affected. Thus, degrading activities and R-DNA polymerase activity seem to be catalyzed by different molecular entities. However the fact that in most cases these activities co-chromatograph suggests that the corresponding molecules form rather stable complexes.
