The stability of globin mRNA in murine erythroleukemia cells (Friend cells) before and during DMSO-induced differentiation was investigated. Cells were exposed to 3H-uridine for 2 hr and then transferred to medium without the radioactive precursor. The loss of radioactivity in total RNA, poly(A)-containing RNA and globin mRNA was followed. The globin mRNA was isolated using a highly specific globin cDNA column. In uninduced cells and cells early in differentiation, the globin mRNA decays with a half-life of less than 50 hr. After 4 days of induction, the globin mRNA decays with a half-life of 17 hr, demonstrating a change in stability during the induction process. Although the stability of globin mRNA changes during induction, this is not true for total poly(A)-containing RNA. At all times of induction, the poly(A)-containing RNA decays as two populations, one with a half-life of 6 hr and the other with a half-life of 36 hr. The half-life of the rRNA also remains unchanged during differentiation.
