Studies of Blastocystis hominis

Blastocystis hominis, grown in Boeck-Drbohlav culture medium, modified by the omission of rice starch and the addition of 20% human serum and mineral oil cover to the Locke's solution overlay, can assume 3 morphologic forms. In the absence of human serum the vacuolated form, which divides by binary fission predominates. In medium with high serum content the granular form appears, with 3 types of granules. Spheroid or more elongate cytoplasmic granules predominate. In older organisms, lipid granules are found either in the peripheral cytoplasm or in the central vacuolar space. In occasional cells, variable numbers of reproductive granules develop in the central vacuolar space. These latter granules are released from the organism and give rise to typical B. hominis cells. The 3rd form, the ameba form, appears in small numbers in older cultures and in those treated with antibiotics. Ameba forms feed on bacteria and have slow pseudopodial activity. Exposure to oxygen causes rapid damage to cell membrane, with resulting leakage and collapse.     

Survival and Infectivity of Pneumocystis carinii Outside the Mammalian Host.

SUMMARY Air blower prefilters servicing HEPA-filtered Biobubble housing Pneumocystis carinii -infected rats were stored for up to five months at -80°C to room temperature. After storage, 76% of immunosuppressed rats exposed to these prefilters developed P. carinii infections. In contrast, only 4% of control immunosuppressed rats exposed to autoclaved filters had P. carinii infections. These observations indicate that the organism has a dormant form that remains infective for at least several months outside the mammalian host.     

Lack of repair of ultraviolet light damage in Mycoplasma gallisepticum

Molecules with single-stranded tails (rolling circles) were isolated as replicating intermediates in G4 progeny single-stranded DNA synthesis. Lysates from infected cells harvested late in infection during single-stranded DNA synthesis were not deproteinised but analysed directly in caesium chloride and propidium diiodide gradients. The gradient fractionated them on the basis of tail length. If the lysates were first deproteinised however, the tailed replicative intermediates banded as a peak at a density just greater than that of replicative form II DNA (RFII) and did not spread down the gradient. The origin of synthesis of the viral strand tail was mapped by electron microscopy as 55 to 60% away from the single EcoRI cleavage site. Termination molecules finishing a round of viral strand DNA synthesis have been identified as molecules consisting of a closed single-stranded DNA circle attached by a very small region to the parent double-stranded DNA circle.     

A rolling circle model of the in vivo replication of bacteriophage phiX174 replicative form DNA: different fate of two types of progeny replicative form

In a preceding paper (Schröder and Kaerner, 1972) a rolling circle mechanism has been described for the replication of bacteriophage φX174 replicative form. Replication involved nicking and elongation of the viral (positive) strand component of the RF molecule resulting in the displacement of a single-strand tail of increasing length. The synthesis of the new complementary (negative) strand on the single-strand tails appears to be initiated with considerable delay and converts the tail into double-stranded DNA. Before the new negative strand is completed the replicative intermediates split into (I) a complete RF molecule containing the “old” negative and the new positive strand, and (II) a linear, partially double-stranded “tail” consisting of the complete old positive strand and a fragment of the new negative strand.The present study is concerned with the fate during RF replication of these fragments of the rolling circles. Those RFII molecules containing the old negative strands appear to go into further replication rounds repeatedly. Some of the tails were found in the infected cells in their original linear form. “Gapped” RFII molecules, which have been described earlier by Schekman and co-workers (Schekman &; Ray, 1971; Schekman et al., 1971), are supposed to originate from the tails of rolling circle intermediates by circularization of their positive strand components. Evidence is provided by our experiments that even late during RF replication these gaps are present only in the negative strands of RFII. Appropriate chase experiments indicated that the tails finally are converted to RFI molecules. Progeny RFI molecules could not be observed to start new replication rounds under our conditions although we cannot exclude that this might happen to some minor extent.The results presented suggest that the master templates for RF replication are the first negative strands to be formed, rather than the parental positive strands.

G4 DNA replication: I. Origin of synthesis of the viral and complementary DNA strands

The break in the complementary DNA strand of early G4 replicative form II DNA (RFII) and in the viral DNA strand of late RFII DNA was located using two single cleavage restriction enzymes (EcoRI and PstI) and by limited nick translation of the break using DNA polymerase I and ³²P-labelled deoxyribonucleotides followed by digestion with the restriction enzymes HaeIII and HindII. The break in the complementary DNA strand was unique and in HaeIII Z5 close to the EcoRI cleavage site whereas the break in the viral DNA strand was on the other side of the molecule in HaeIII Z2 approxiately 50% away from the EcoRI cleavage site. Distribution of a short ³H pulse in early G4 replicating intermediates that were synthesising both DNA strands at the same time showed that synthesis of the strands started on opposite sides of the molecule and proceeded in opposite convergent directions, suggesting that initiation of synthesis of the two strands was independent and not unified in a single growing fork.     

Comparison of partial denaturation maps with the known sequence of simian virus 40 and phi X174 replicative form DNA.

Electron microscope partial denaturation maps of two viral DNAs, simian virus 40 and φX174 replicative form, have been obtained. A simple computer program has been developed to predict denaturation maps from any given DNA sequence, based on the percentage of A · T base-pairs along the molecule. Maps constructed from the SV40 DNA and φX174 replicative form DNA base sequence show a good correlation with the experimental maps. The results show that the regions of a DNA molecule that denature first are, in fact, those regions with the highest content of adenine and thymine base-pairs.     

Transcriptional organization of the Drosophila melanogaster ribosomal RNA genes.

Five distinct DNA replicating intermediates have been separated from lysates of bacteriophage G4-infected cells pulse-labelled during the period of replicative form synthesis using propidium diiodide/caesium chloride gradients. These are a partially single-stranded theta structure that is labelled in both the viral and complementary DNA strands; partially single-stranded circles, some with an unfinished viral DNA strand (25%) and some with an unfinished complementary DNA strand (75%); replicative form II(RFII) and replicative form I(RFI) DNA labelled only in the complementary DNA strand. To explain the pulse-label data a model is proposed in which G4 replicative form replication takes place by a displacement mechanism in which synthesis of the new viral DNA strand displaces the old viral DNA strand as a single-stranded DNA loop (D-loop) and when the displacement reaches half way round the molecule (the origin of synthesis of the G4 viral and complementary DNA strands are on opposite sides of the genome, Martin &; Godson 1977) synthesis of the complementary DNA strand starts, but in the opposite direction. Strand separation of the parent helix runs ahead of DNA synthesis, releasing two partially single-stranded circles from the replicating structure which then complete their replication as free single-stranded DNA circles. No evidence was found to support a rolling circle displacement mechanism of G4 replicative form synthesis.     

The obesity in bilateral ovariectomized rats is related to a decrease in the expression of leptin receptors in the brain.

We investigated the expression levels of leptin receptors in the brain of ovariectomized (OVX) rats. The mean expression level of ob mRNA in adipose tissues of OVX rats was significantly (P < 0.01) lower than that in the SHAM operation group rats, and the mean body weight of OVX rats was significantly (P < 0.01) greater than that in the SHAM group rats. However, there were no differences between serum leptin concentrations in these two groups. The mean level of leptin receptor (OB-R) mRNA expression in the brain tissue and the mean level of long form type OB-R (OB-RL) mRNA expression in the hypothalamus of the OVX rats were significantly (P < 0.05) lower than those in the SHAM group rats. These changes were cancelled by supplementation with 17 beta-estradiol in OVX rats. These results suggested that not only changes in the expression level of ob mRNA in adipose tissue and the serum leptin concentration but also changes in the OB-R mRNA in the brain are involved in the body weight increase in OVX rats and that a decrease in OB-R makes transmission of signals to suppress the amount of food intake difficult, thus leading to an increase in body weight.
