Differential breakdown of phylogenetically diverse ribosomal RNA's inserted via liposomes into mammalian cells

D Lavelle, MJ Ostro, and D Giacomoni

Liposomes were used to deliver ribosomal RNA's from the different organisms into cultivated mouse plasmacytoma cells. Ribosomal RNA from Escherichia coli was degraded intracellularly within 1 hour, whereas mouse and yeast ribosomal RNA's were degraded more slowly. This indicates that cells can discriminated between different ribosomal RNA's.
