For identification and distribution of actin microfilaments in hand-isolated nuclei of R. temporaria oocytes (stage 6, according to Dumont, 1972) different methods were used: heavy meromyosin decoration, antiactin immunofluorescence with monoclonal antibodies, staining with rhodamine phalloidin, and electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. The nuclei of R. temporaria oocytes contain a considerable quantities of actin microfilaments which form intranuclear meshwork. Microfilaments are connected with the nucleoli, nucleolar RNP-complexes and nuclear envelope. Immunofluorescence with antiactin monoclonal antibodies reveals a strong staining of microfilaments and nucleoli. A slight staining of nucleoli is observed after the treatment of nuclei with rhodamine phalloidin. A specific role of intranuclear microfilaments in direct transport of nucleolar material from the nucleus into the oocyte cytoplasm, in stabilization of the karyosphere (the late diplotene oocyte complex of chromosomes with numerous nucleoli) is discussed in addition to its keeping in a definite region of the nucleus. A supposition is drawn on the functional significance of the connection between microfilaments and nuclear matrix. Based on our own and literature data, a conclusion is drawn, that the intranuclear filament actin may be one of the leading components in morpho-functional organization of the nucleus as the whole.
