Hydrogen isotope discrimination in higher plants: Correlations with photosynthetic pathway and environment

Summary The ratio of deuterium to hydrogen (expressed as D) in hydrogen released as water during the combustion of dried plant material was examined. The D value (metabolic hydrogen) determined on plant materials grown under controlled conditions is correlated with pathways of photosynthetic carbon metabolism. C₃ plants show mean D values of-132 for shoots and -117 for roots; C₄ plants show mean D values of -91 for shoots and-77 for roots and CAM plants a D value of-75 for roots and shoots. The difference between the D value of shoot material from C₃ and C₄ plants was confirmed in species growing under a range of glasshouse conditions. This difference in D value between C₃ and C₄ species does not appear to be due to differences in the D value (tissue water) in the plants as a result of physical fractionation of hydrogen isotopes during transpiration. In C₃ and C₄ plants the hydrogen isotope discrimination is in the same direction as the carbon isotope discrimination and factors contributing to the difference in D values are discussed. In CAM plants grown in the laboratory or collected from the field D values range from-75 to +50 and are correlated with ¹³C values. When deprived of water, the D value (metabolic hydrogen) in both soluble and insoluble material in leaves of Kalanchoe daigremontiana Hamet et Perr., becomes less negative. These changes may reflect the deuterium enrichment of tissue water during transpiration, or in field conditions, may reflect the different D value of available water in areas of increasing aridity. Whatever the origin of the variable D value in CAM plants, this parameter may be a useful index of the water relations of these plants under natural conditions.     

Genetic analysis of resistance to whitebacked planthopper in twenty-one varieties of rice,Oryza sativa L.

Summary The inheritance of resistance to whitebacked planthopper Sogatella furcifera (Horvath) was studied in 21 rice varieties. Reactions of F₁; F₂ and F₃ progenies of the crosses of 21 resistant varieties with the susceptible variety TN 1 revealed that a single dominant gene governs resistance in Mushkan 41, Santhi, Siahnakidar 195, SM2-34, Tirisurkh 251, Zirijowaian 245, 18, 24A, 39, 76 S, 78, 180, 213 B, 267, 293, CI 6037-4, NP97, S39 JKW and Bansphul. In varieties 65 and 274 A, resistance is governed by one dominant and one recessive gene which segregate independently of each other. Tests for allelism with the Wbph 1 gene originally identified in N 22 revealed that the dominant gene present in all the test varieties is the same as Wbph 1. Further studies are required to determine the allelic relationships of the recessive gene found in varieties 65 and 274 A.     

13Cα and 13Cβ chemical shifts as a tool to delineate β-hairpin structures in peptides

Unravelling the factors that contribute to the formation and the stability of -sheet structure in peptides is a subject of great current interest. A -hairpin, the smallest -sheet motif, consists of two antiparallel hydrogen-bonded -strands linked by a loop region. We have performed a statistical analysis on protein -hairpins showing that the most abundant types of -hairpins, 2:2, 3:5 and 4:4, have characteristic patterns of ¹³C and ¹³C conformational shifts, as expected on the basis of their and angles. This fact strongly supports the potential value of ¹³C and ¹³C conformational shifts as a means to identify -hairpin motifs in peptides. Their usefulness was confirmed by analysing the patterns of ¹³C and ¹³C conformational shifts in 13 short peptides, 10–15 residues long, that adopt -hairpin structures in aqueous solution. Furthermore, we have investigated their potential as a method to quantify -hairpin populations in peptides.     

The energy transmission in ATP synthase: From the γ-c rotor to the α3β3 oligomer fixed by OSCP-b stator via the βDELSEED sequence

ATP synthase (F₀F₁) is driven by an electrochemical potential of H⁺ (H⁺). F₀F₁ is composed of an ion-conducting portion (F₀) and a catalytic portion (F₁). The subunit composition of F₁ is ₃₃. The active ₃₃ oligomer, characterized by X-ray crystallography, has been obtained only from thermnophilic F₁ (TF₁). We proposed in 1984 that ATP is released from the catalytic site (C site) by a conformational change induced by the DELSEED sequence via -F₀. In fact, cross-linking of DELSEED to stopped the ATP-driven rotation of in the center of ₃₃. The torque of the rotation is estimated to be 420 pN·å from the H⁺ and H⁺-current through F₀F₁. The angular velocity () of is the rate-limiting step, because H⁺ increased theV _max of H⁺ current through F₀, but not theK _m (ATP). The rotational unit of F₀ (=ab₂c₁₀) is /5, while that in ₃₃ is 2/3. This difference is overcome by an analog-digital conversion via elasticity around DELSEED with a threshold to release ATP. The distance at the C site is about 9.6 å (2,8-diN₃-ATP), and tight Mg-ATP binding in ₃₃ was shown by ESR. The rotational relaxation of TF₁ is too rapid (=100 nsec), but the rate of AT(D)P-induced conformational change of ₃₃ measured with a synchrotron is close to . The ATP bound between the P-loop and E188 is released by the shift of DELSEED from RGL. Considering the viscosity resistance and inertia of the free rotor (-c), there may be a stator containing OSCP (= of TF₁) and F₀-d to hold free rotation of ₃₃.     

Demonstration of ‘cardiac-specific’ myosin heavy chain in masticatory muscles of human and rabbit

Summary Human and rabbit masticatory muscles were analyzed immuno-and enzyme-histochemically using antibodies specific to cardiac , slow and fast myosin heavy chain isoforms. In human masseter, temporalis, and lateral pterygoid muscle cardiac myosin heavy chain is found in fibres that contain either fast, or fast and slow myosin heavy chain. In rabbit masseter, temporalis and digastric muscles, fibres are present that express cardiac myosin heavy chain either exclusively, or concomitantly with slow myosin heavy chain or fast myosin heavy chain. Our results demonstrate a much broader distribution of cardiac myosin heavy chain than hitherto recognized and these might explain in part the specific characteristics of masticatory muscles. The cardiac myosin heavy chain is only found in skeletal muscles originating from the cranial part of the embryo (including the heart muscle) suggesting that its expression might be determined by the developmental history of these muscles.     

Desensitization of prostaglandin F2α receptor-mediated phosphoinositide hydrolysis in cultured rat astrocytes

Desensitization of prostaglandin (PG) F₂ receptor-mediated phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis was investigated in cultured rat astrocytes. Prolonged exposure of astrocytes differentiated by dibutyryl cyclic AMP-treatment to PGF₂ caused the desensitization of subsequent PGF₂-induced PI hydrolysis. The desensitization was time- and PGF₂ dose-dependent; maximal decrease in the PI hydrolysis was observed after exposure to 10 M PGF₂ for 4 h and the degree of the desensitization was 31.7±2.7% of control. Pretreatment with either PGD₂ or PGE₂ also induced the desensitization of subsequent PGF₂-stimulated PI hydrolysis and conversely pretreatment of PGF₂ decreased the PI responses to PGD₂ and PGE₂. The desensitization prevented by phloretin and was reversible upon removal of the agonist. Protein synthesis inhibitors blocked the recovery of the desensitization. Treatment of the cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate had no effect on the desensitization. These results suggest that prolonged exposure of the astrocytes to PGF₂ caused the desensitization of the receptors.     

Comparative Analysis of the Mechanisms Underlying Nifedipine-Induced Blockade of Three Subtypes of T-Type Ca2+ Channels

We analyzed the effects of nifedipine on a family of recombinant low-threshold Ca²⁺ channels functionally expressed in Xenopus oocytes and formed by three different subunits (1G, 1H, and 1I). The 1G and 1I channels demonstrated a low sensitivity to nifedipine even in high concentrations (IC₅₀ = 98 and 243 M, maximum blocking intensity A_max = 25 and 47%, respectively). At the same time, the above agent effectively blocked channels formed by the 1H-subunit (IC₅₀ = 5 M and A_max = 41%). The nifedipine-caused effects were voltage-dependent, and their changes depended on the initial state of the channel. In the case of 1G-subunits, the blockade was determined mostly by binding of nifedipine with closed channels, whereas in the cases of 1H- and 1I-subunits this resulted from binding of nifedipine with channels in the activated and inactivated states. The obtained data allow us to obtain estimates of the pharmacological properties of the above three subtypes of recombinant channels and, in the future, to compare these characteristics with the properties of low-threshold Ca²⁺ channels in native cells.     

UDP-GlcNAc: Galβ3GalNAc-Mucin: (GlcNAc → GalNAc) β6-N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase and UDP-GlcNAc: Galβ3(GlcNAcβ6) GalNAc-Mucin (GlcNAc → Gal)β3-N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase from Swine Trachea Epithelium

Summary Two specific -N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases involved in the branching and elongation of mucin oligosaccharide chains, namely, a 1,6 N-acetylglucosaminylsaminyltransferase that transfers N-acetylglucosamine from UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to Gal3GalNAc-Mucin to yield Gal3(GlcNAc6)GalNAc-Mucin and a 3-N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase that transfers N-acetylglucosamine from UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to Gal3(GlcNAC6)GalNAc-mucin to yield GlcNAc3Gal3 (GlcNAc6)GalNAc-Mucin were purified from the microsomal fraction of swine trachea epithelium. The 1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase was purified about 21,800-fold by procedures which included affinity chromatography on DEAE columns containing bound asialo Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein with Gal1,3GalNAc side chains. The apparent molecular weight estimated by gel filtration was found to be about 60 Kd. The purified enzyme showed a high specificity for Gal1,3GalNAc chains and the most active substrates were mucin glycoproteins containing these chains. The apparent Km of the 6-glucosaminyltrans-ferase for Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein containing Gal1,3GalNAc chains was 0.53 µM; for UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, 12 µM; and for Gal 1,3GalNAc NO₂ø, 4 mM. The activity of the 6-glucosaminyltransferase was dependent on the extent of glycosylation of the Gal3GalNAc chains in Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein.The best substrate for the partially purified 3-Glucosaminyltransferase was Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein containing Gal1,3(GlcNAc6)GalNAc side chains. This enzyme showed little or no activity with intact sialylated Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein or derivatives of this glycoprotein containing GalNAc or Gal1,3GalNAc side chains.The radioactive oligosaccharides formed by these enzymes in large scale reaction mixtures were released from the mucin glycoproteins by treatment with alkaline borohydride, isolated by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-6 and characterized by methylation analysis and sequential digestion with exoglycosidases. The oligosaccharide products formed by the 6- and 3-glucosaminyltransferases were shown to be Gal3(GlcNAC6) GalNAc and GlcNAc3 Gal3(GlcNAC6)GalNAc respectively.Taken collectively, these results demonstrate that swine trachea epithelium contains two specific N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases which catalyze the initial branching and elongation reactions involved in the synthesis of O-linked oligosaccharide chains in respiratory mucin glycoproteins. The first enzyme a 6-glucosaminyltransferase converts Gal3GalNAc chains in mucin glycoproteins to Gal3(GlcNAc6)GalNAc chains. This product is the substrate for a second 3-glucosaminyltransferase which converts the Gal3(GlcNAc6)GalNAc chains to GlcNAc3Gal(GlcNAc6)GalNAc chains in the glycoprotein. The 3-glucosaminyltransferase did not utilize Gal3GalNAc chains as a substrate and this results in an ordered sequence of addition of N-acetylglucosamine residues to growing oligosaccharide chains in tracheal mucin glycoproteins.Abbreviations NeuNAc N-acetylneuraminic acid - GalNAcol N-acetylgalactosaminitol - CGMG Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein - GalNAc-CGMG Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein containing GalNAc side chains O-glycosidically linked to serine or threonine - Gal3GalNAc-CGMC Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein containing Gal3GalNAc side chains - MES 2-(N-morpholino) Ethane Sulfonic acid - PBS Phosphate Buffered Saline     

The αβ complexes of ATP synthase: the α3β3 oligomer and α1β1 protomer

The basic structures of the catalytic portion (F₁, ₃₃) of ATP synthase are the ₃₃ hexamer (oligomer with cooperativity) and ₁₁ heterodimer (protomer). These were reconstituted from the and subunits of thermophilic F₁ (TF₁), and the ₃₃ hexamer was crystallized. On electrophoresis, both the dimer and hexamer showed bands with ATPase activity. Using the dimer and hexamer, we studied the nucleotide-dependent rapid molecular dynamics. The formation of the hexamer required neither nucleotide nor Mg. The hexamer was dissociated into the dimer in the presence of MgADP, while the dimer was associated into the hexamer in the presence of MgATP. The hexamer, like mitochondrial F₁ and TF₁, showed two kinds of ATPase activity: one was cooperative and was inhibited by only one BzADP per hexamer, and the other was inhibited by three BzADP per hexamer.     

Variant forms ofα-2-l-fucosyltransferase in human submaxillary glands from blood group ABH “secretor” and “non-secretor” individuals

The properties of the -2-l-fucosyltransferases in submaxillary gland preparations from blood group ABH secrefors and non-secretors were compared. The level of activity in the non-secretor gland homogenates amounted to about 5% only of that found in the secretor gland preparations. The enzymes from the two sources differed in solubility properties, charge and affinities for donor and acceptor substrates. The enzyme from secretor glands showed a preference for acceptors with Type 1 [d-galactosyl(1–3)-N-acetyl-d-glucosamine] structures whereas the enzyme from non-secretor glands had a preference for Type 2 [d-galactosyl(1–4)-N-acetyl-d-glucosamine] structures.These results demonstrate that expression of the secretor gene (Se) is associated with a molecular form of the -2-l-fucosyltransferase that is different from the species present in the same tissue when theSe gene is not expressed.     

Electrogenic properties of the sodium-alanine cotransporter in pancreatic acinar cells: II. Comparison with transport models

Summary In this paper, the results of the preceding electrophysiological study of sodium-alanine cotransport in pancreatic acinar cells are compared with kinetic models. Two different types of transport mechanisms are considered. In the simultaneous mechanism the cotransporterC forms a ternary complexNCS with Na⁺ and the substrateS; coupled transport of Na⁺ andS involves a conformational transition between statesNCS andNCS with inward- and outward-facing binding sites. In the consecutive (or ping-pong) mechanism, formation of a ternary complex is not required; coupled transport occurs by an alternating sequence of association-dissociation steps and conformational transitions. It is shown that the experimentally observed alanine- and sodium-concentration dependence of transport rates is consistent with the predictions of the simultaneous model, but incompatible with the consecutive mechanism. Assuming that the association-dissociation reactions are not rate-limiting, a number of kinetic parameters of the simultaneous model can be estimated from the experimental results. The equilibrium dissociation constants of Na⁺ and alanine at the extracellular side are determined to beK _N <-64mm andK _S <-18mm. Furthermore, the ratioK _N /K _N ^S of the dissociation constants of Na⁺ from the binary (NC) and the ternary complex (NCS) at the extracellular side is estimated to be <-6. This indicates that the binding sequence of Na⁺ andS to the transporter is not ordered. The current-voltage behavior of the transporter is analyzed in terms of charge translocations associated with the single-reaction steps. The observed voltage-dependence of the half-saturation concentration of sodium is consistent with the assumption that a Na⁺ ion that migrates from the extracellular medium to the binding site has to traverse part of the transmembrane voltage.     

Human HE2 (μB) and μA motifs show the same function as whole IgH intronic enhancer in transgenic mice

In the murine IgH gene intronic enhancer (ENH_iH), two major functional domains were reported. One is the E4/octomer region and another includes the A and B motifs. In the human ENH_iH, it was reported that the HE2, which corresponds to the murine B, and E6 motifs play an important role in an enhancer activity and a tissue-specificity at cellular level. Here we examined thein vivo function of the E6, A and HE2 motifs within the human ENH_iH by using the transgenic mice technique. The A and HE2 motifs together revealed almost the same enhancer function as the whole human ENH_iH, but the E6 motif had lesser enhancer acitivty and tissue-specificity.     

Correlation between 15N NMR chemical shifts in proteins and secondary structure

Summary An empirical correlation between the peptide ¹⁵N chemical shift, ¹⁵N_i, and the backbone torsion angles _i, _i–1 is reported. By using two-dimensional shielding surfaces (_i1–1), it is possible in many cases to make reasonably accurate predictions of ¹⁵N chemical shifts for a given structure. On average, the rms error between experiment and prediction is about 3.5 ppm. Results for threonine, valine and isoleucine are worse (4.8 ppm), due presumably to ₁-distribution/-gauche effects. The rms errors for the other amino acids are 3 ppm, for a typical maximal chemical shift range of 15–20 ppm. Thus, there is a significant correlation between ¹⁵N chemical shift and secondary structure.     

Sparse distribution of γ/δ T lymphocytes around human epithelial tumors predominantly infiltrated by primed/memory T cells

Summary Evidence from the mouse system has suggested that T lymphocytes accumulating in non-lymphoid tissue, in particular epithelia, may preferentially express the T cell receptor (TCR) . In this study, we characterize the T cell receptor or phenotype of lymphocytes infiltrating human tumors of epithelial origin using monoclonal antibodies (mAb) for immunohistology and flow cytometry on cells extracted by enzyme digestion. This report shows that the majority of CD3⁺ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes are TCR ⁺ but a small percentage of TCR can be clearly defined scattered throughout the tumor tissue with apparently no microanatomical selection. So far there has been little evidence for an accumulation of activated T cells in human tumor tissues as defined by mAb against molecules appearing transiently during the acute phase of activation. Now mAb are available that can identify primed or memory T cells such as mAb UCHL-1 recognizing the CD45RO antigen. Here we show that CD3⁺ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes have a statistically significant accumulation of primed T cells, as compared to the autologous peripheral blood lymphocytes, suggesting their immune stimulation by tumor cells.     

Absolute measurement of cell expansion in plant cell suspension cultures

A method is described for the measurement of intracellular volume (V_i) in cell cultures. In principle, any stable compound that neither penetrates the plasma membrane nor binds to the cells can be used to trace the total extracellular (apoplastic) volume and hence to estimate the intracellular volume. No suitable coloured or UV-absorbing compound could be found among those tested; the main problems were binding to the cell surface and/or instability in the medium. However, [¹⁴C]mannitol was an acceptable apoplastic marker, by use of which we showed that 21–47% of total packed cell volume (PCV) was intracellular, and 14–33% of total settled cell volume (SCV) was intracellular. Therefore, measurements of PCV and SCV misrepresent cell expansion to a variable extent. Cultures of Acer, Rosa, Spinacia and Zea achieved final symplastic volumes of only 9, 14, 6 and 6%, respectively, of the total suspension culture volume.     

Design and synthesis of thrombin inhibitors

Summary As part of our programme directed at the development of enzyme inhibitors based on transition-state mimics, we discovered in the early 1980s that P3-P3 fragments of human fibrinogen A, containing the ketomethylene isostere Arg--[COCH₂]Gly at P1-P1, were potent inhibitors of thrombin. Such low-molecular-weight inhibitors are expected to be clinically useful as anticoagultant drugs. In our more recent investigations, the P1-P1 moiety has been replaced with various arginine or lysine ketones. The resulting compounds showed the following order of thrombin inhibitory potency: -ketoesters > fluoroketones >alkoxymethylketones > difluoro--ketoamides >-ketoesters >alkyl ketones. In contrast to all other lysine/arginine pairs studied previously, the inhibitor based on a lysine -ketoester proved superior to the corresponding arginine analogue. A possible explanation for this finding is discussed. All the highly electrophilic ketones (e.g., fluoroketones) were found to exhibit slow-binding kinetics with thrombin, which is likely to be a disadvantage in clinical use. Alkoxymethyl ketones were devoid of such behaviour and have been developed further to yield nanomolar inhibitors of low molecular weight and good selectivity for thrombin. One of these ketones was found to compare favourably with known thrombin inhibitors in anticoagulant assays. The synthesis of various types of inhibitor mentioned above is described, together with structure-activity correlations for inhibition of thrombin.     

Methodological problems in evolutionary biology VIII. Biology and culture

Biology cannot accommodate all aspects of culture. Aspects of culture that a biological approach can take into account can be covered by the biological categories of phenotype and environment. There is no need to treat culture as a separate category. Attempts to elaborate biological explanations of cultural variation will meet with success only if biologists expand theories of development, and integrate them in evolutionary biology. The alternative — elaborating the idea of so-called cultural inheritance — makes little sense from a biological point of view.     

Immobilized Lotus tetragonolobus agglutinin binds oligosaccharides containing the Lex determinant

A defined set of oligosaccharides and glycopeptides containing -linked fucose were used to examine the specificity of the immobilized fucose-binding lectin Lotus tetragonolobus agglutinin (LTA1), also known as lotus lectin. Glycans containing the Lewis x determinant (Lex) Gal1-4[Fuc1-3]GlcNAc1-3-R were significantly retarded in elution from high density LTA-Emphaze columns. The lectin also bound the fucosylated lacdiNAc trisaccharide GalNAc1-4[Fuc1-3]GlcNAc. The lectin did not bind glycans containing either sialylLex or VIM-2 determinants, nor did it bind the isomeric Lea, Gal1-3[Fuc1-4]GlcNAc-R. Although 2-fucosyllactose Fuc1-2Gal1-4Glc) was retarded in elution from the columns, larger glycans containing the H-antigen Fuc1-2Gal1-3(4)GlcNAc-R interacted poorly with immobilized LTA. Our results demonstrate that immobilized LTA is effective in isolating glycans containing the Lex antigen and is useful in analyzing specific fucosylation of glycoconjugates.

Coral growth in high-nutrient,low-pH seawater: a case study of corals cultured at the Waikiki Aquarium,Honolulu, Hawaii

Fifty-seven species of hermatypic corals have been maintained and grown in high-nutrient seawater at the Waikiki Aquarium, Honolulu, Hawaii. In this study we document the chemical conditions of aquarium water in terms of dissolved nutrients and carbon. Aquarium water is characterized by concentrations of inorganic nutrients that are high relative to most natural reef ecosystems: SiO₃ 200 M; PO₄ 0.6 M; NO₃ 5 M; NH₄ 2 M. In contrast, concentrations of organic nutrients are lower than most tropical surface ocean waters: DOP 0.1 M and DON 4 M. The incoming well-water servicing the facility has low pH, crating over-saturation of carbon dioxide. The coral communities in aquaria took up inorganic nutrients and released organic nutrients. Rates of nutrient uptake into aquaria coral communities were similar to nutrient uptake by natural reef communities. Coral growth rates were near the upper rates reported from the field, demonstrating corals can and do flourish in relatively high-nutrient water. The growth of corals does not appear to be inhibited at concentrations of nitrogen up to 5 M. Statements implying that corals can only grow in low nutrient oligotrophic seawater are therefore oversimplifications of processes that govern growth of these organisms. Some basic guidelines are given for maintenance of coral communities in aquaria.     

Ganglioside-cholera toxin interactions: a binding and lipid monolayer study

Summary On t.l.c. plates ¹²⁵I-cholera toxin binds to a disialoganglioside tentatively identified as GD_lb with about 10 times less capacity than to ganglioside GM₁. Binding of labeled toxin to both gangliosides was abolished in presence of excess amounts of unlabeled B subunit. Ganglioside extracts from human or pig intestinal mucosa showed toxin binding to gangliosides GM₁ and GD_1b. In ganglioside-containing lipid monolayers the penetration of the toxin was independent of the ganglioside binding capacity.Abbreviations GM₂ Gal-NAc14Gal(3-2NeuAc)14G1c1Cer - GM₁ Gal3Ga1-NAc14Gal(32NeuAc)14G1c11Cer - GD_1a NeuAc23Ga113Gal-NAc14Gal(32NeuAc)14G1c11Cer - GD1b Gall3Gal-NAcl4Gal(32NeuAc82NeuAc)14Glc11Cer - GT_1b NeuAc23Ga113Ga1-NAcal4Gal(3-2NeuAc82NeuAc)14G1c11Cer - dpPC 1,2-hexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine - dpPE 1,2-hexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine
