ABSTRACT IN FRENCH : Lorsque les taux de leucocytes et de plaquettes dans le sang ont été abaissées par l’effet secondaire de certaines chimiothérapies, ces taux peuvent être ramenés rapidement et sans danger à leurs valeurs normales par les ARN-fragments, les R.L.B.
ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH : When the leucocytes and blood platelets have their counts reduced in the blood following chemotherapy, they can be rapidly and safely, restored to normal values by injecting cellular ARN fragments, which the authors call R.L.B. factors.
78 – Découpage des ARN ribosomiques d’Escherichia coli par la ribonucléase U2 et transcription in vitro des “ARN-fragments” en ADN complémentaire
C.R. Acad. Sci., 1978, 286, pp. 1825-1828 (série D).
Available in French only
ABSTRACT: Under well defined conditions ribosomal RNAs purified from Escherichia coli can be degraded by ribonuclease U2 giving rise to RNA fragments of 60-70 nucleotides. In vitro, these fragments are efficently transcribed into a complementary DNA by DNA polymerase RNA dependent, partially purified from extracts of E. coli. In vivo, “RNA-fragments-U2” inhibit the development of plant tumors.

76 – Endogenous RNA-Bound RNA Dependent DNA Polymerase Activity in Neurospora crassa
Botany Department, Howard University, Washington, DC
Exp. Mycology, 1977, 1, pp. 173-182.
Available in English only
ABSTRACT: Evidence indicating the presence of a RNA-bound RNA-dependent DNA polymerase (RDDP) in the eukaryotic fungus Neurospora crassa is presented. This enzyme, free of DNA-dependent DNA polymerase, is capable of synthesizing DNA only in the presence of all four deoxyribonucleoside 5′-triphosphates and Mg2+. The DNA polymerase activity is decreased considerably if the RNA bound to the enzyme is eliminated. The activity can be restored by addition of some particular RNA but not by addition of DNA. Both template RNA and the synthesized DNA product sedimented on sucrose density gradients are approximately 6 S. RNA-bound RNA-dependent DNA polymerase partially purified from extracts of N. crassa was distinguishable from known DNA-dependent DNA polymerases. DNA synthesized by RDDP was acid-precipitable and complementary to enzyme-bound RNA.

75 – Particular small size RNA and RNA fragments from different origins as tumor inducing agents in Datura stramonium
Molecular Biology Reports, 1976, 2, pp. 497-506.
Available in English only
ABSTRACT: Particular RNA fragments obtained by action of pancreatic ribonuclease on purified RNAs originating from species totally unrelated to Agrobacterium tumefaciens (Escherichia coli, rabbit, monkey) are capable if inducing the formation of transplantable tumorous tissue when introduced at wounded sites in inverted stems of Datura stramonium maintained under axenic conditions on a medium containing auxin and kinetin. Reovirus RNA and a small size RNA (5-6 S) isolated from RNA bound RNA directed DNA polymerase from Escherichia coli also induced the appearance of tumorous tissues which grow on solid synthetic medium in the absence of auxin and kinetin.
