- 1.1. The length of the poly(A) tail at the 3'-end of mRNA may control protein synthesis by bringing the 3'-end in close proximity to the 5'-end of the noncoding region as well as increasing the duration of mRNA translation by its binding to the poly(A) binding protein.
- 2.2. The rate-limiting step in the decay of the body of the message is the shortening of a long poly(A) tail during mRNA translation. The shortening of the poly(A) tail occurs during pre-elongation in the protein synthesis cycle.
- 3.3. The shortening of the poly(A) tail during mRNA translation may not involve RNase activity, however poly(A) binding protein seems to play a role, at least in part, in shortening of the poly(A) tail.

- 1.1. Chromatin of sea urchin embryos was chromatographed on a hydroxyapatite column, and the two largest fractions of proteins desorbed with 0.05 M and 0.2 M Na-phosphate, pH 6.8, were comparatively characterized.
- 2.2. The mol. wt ranges of these fractions were about 18,000 and 14,000 daltons, respectively, at both molarities of the phosphate buffer.
- 3.3. Both fractions at each elution molarity were found to be acidic, and to differ somewhat in their respective amino acid compositions. No important differences related to the stage of development could be detected in this respect.
- 4.4. Upon re-electrophoresis both large fractions resolved in one major and three minor bands. The amino acid composition of the major band was different for the blastula and gastrula chromatin.
- 5.5. It is likely that these fractions contain glycoprotein subunits.

- 1.1. Resting metabolic rates (RMR) below thermoneutrality in adult hyrax acclimated to 26, 15 and 10°C remained unchanged, i.e. thermal conductance (K) remained constant.
- 2.2. Conductance in juveniles decreased with acclimation to lower ambient temperatures (Ta).
- 3.3. Body temperature (Tb) dropped by 3.8°C in adults exposed to Ta of 30 – 5°C. The decrease was constant.

- 1.1. Among the digestive enzymes synthesized by pancreas, lipase is the principle lipolytic enzyme which hydrolyses dietary glycerides.
- 2.2. For its action it requires a coenzyme, colipase.
- 3.3. The molecular mechanisms of the interaction of these two are not fully understood.
- 4.4. Further, molecular events that regulate and influence lipid absorption are ill denned.
- 5.5. The rabbit is the conventional animal model for the study of lipid absorption. We have undertaken the molecular cloning, and characterization of rabbit pancreatic colipase, the coenzyme for pancreatic lipase.
- 6.6. Colipase has been cloned from a gt 11 library of an adult rabbit pancreatic cDNA by probing with an oligonucleotide derived from human colipase sequence.

- 1.1. The effect of NAD+ and its fragments, adenosine and 5'-AMP on the interaction of yeast d-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase with l-anilino-8-naphthalene sulfonate has been studied.
- 2.2. A competitive relationship between NAD+ and the dye has been demonstrated using fluorimetric technique; in the case of adenosine and 5'-AMP a direct method of analytical ultracentrifugation was employed.
- 3.3. The results obtained suggest the dye binding at the adenine subsite of the dehydrogenase.
- 4.4. The fluorescence of 1-anilino-8-naphthalene sulfonate bound to d-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase increases and the emission maximum shifts to shorter wavelengths on addition of nicotinamide mononucleotide.
- 5.5. This suggests some conformational changes to occur in the micro-environment of the bound dye in response to the interaction with the ligand in the nicotinamide subsite.
- 6.6. A quantitative relationship between the nicotinamide mononucleotide concentration on one hand, and the fluorescence change on the other, was used to determine the dissociation constant of the ligand, which was found to be 13.0 mM (0.1 M glycine buffer pH 8.5 at 20°C).

- 1.1. Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis of APH(3')-II was used to investigate the functions of key amino acids in the P-loop analogous motif of the enzyme.
- 2.2. The mutations of Gly205 → Glu, Gly210 → Ala and Arg211 → Pro considerably reduced the resistance of the resulting strains to KM and to related drugs, e.g. G418.
- 3.3. Similarly, enzyme activity in the crude extracts of these mutants was substantially reduced as well as the enzyme's affinity for Mg2+ ATP.
- 4.4. Alternatively substitutions at a highly conserved basic residue (Arg211 → Lys and Arg211 → His) were not sufficient for the enzyme to sustain the activity at a level comparable to that of the wildtype.
- 5.5. Moreover, an Arg211 → His mutation drastically reduced affinity of the enzyme for Mg2+ ATP.
- 6.6. This argues the importance of Arg211 residue in contributing to the formation of the P-loop structure in addition to its involvement in phosphoryl transfer reaction.
- 7.7. Computer analysis of the secondary structure predicted that the APH(3')-II loop connects a β -strand to an α-helix and that the above mutations caused varying degrees of structural distortions at the corresponding regions of the protein.

- 1.1. Five classes of sea bass serum lipoproteins were purified by single vertical spin ultracentrifugation and agarose column chromatography
- 2.2. VLDL, beta migrating, are the larger and less dense lipoproteins.
- 3.3. LDL are the more heterogeneous in size, ranging from 11 × 106 to 1 × 106.
- 4.4. HDL represent the predominant class which, on the basis of density and electrophoresis migration, is differentiated in three subclasses.
- 5.5. VHDL float at a density > 1.22 mg/ml, which corresponds to the density of the other serum lipoproteins. This subclass, with an apparent molecular weight of 1.5 × 105, resembles the albumin-like fatty acids binding proteins, shown in mammals and teleosts and absent in elasmobranchs.

- 1.1. Fish and snake immature erythrocytes were submitted to a comparative ultrastructural study, analysing changes in organelles involved in hemoglobin (Hb) biosynthesis.
- 2.2. Iron uptake occurs probably via transferrin, and ferruginous compounds accumulate as siderosomes, taken as iron sources for heme biosynthesis, later on caught by a double lamella.
- 3.3. Mitochondrial membrane of the inner camera differentiates to lamellated bodies that, sucessively, give rise to expansions for ferruginous material and globin chains captation, constituting prehemosomal vesicles, which become condensed vesicles, followed by prohemosomes.
- 4.4. Through an internal membrane rearrangement, prohemosomes change to hemosomes wherein, hypothetically, heme and the globin chains assembly may occur.
- 5.5. In both fish and snake erythroid cells, all stages for hemosomegenesis are similar to the stages found in erythroid cells of other vertebrate species, including humans, except that fish cells often present single organelles of still unknown function, void of internal membrane.
- 6.6. Through electrophoresis of the respective supernatants obtained after osmotical lysis of the organellar fractions, it was shown that fish hemosomes contain three Hb patterns, while snake hemosomes present two patterns.
