    Notes: Biochemical evidence is presented for the autophagic destruction of liver mitochondria in the influenza B virus model of Reye's syndrome in mice. Separation of lysosomes and autophagic vacuoles from mitochondria was accomplished by prior treatment of the mice with Triton WR-1339, resulting in uptake of detergent by these organelles (tritosomes), reducing their densities. The organelles were banded in a discontinuous sucrose gradient. Total protein in the heavy tritosomal fraction increased from 1-2% in controls to 7-8% in virus-treated animals. Ornithine carbamoyl transferase (OCTase), a mitochondrial marker, increased from 2-3% (controls) to 11-15% (virus-treated), and glucose-6-phosphatase, a marker for endoplasmic reticulum, increased from 1-2% (controls) to 8-10% (virus-treated). β-Galactosidase, a soluble enzyme in the lysosome, and OCTase also increase in the cell extract fraction following virus treatment, indicating that there was turnover of heavy lysosomal contents.

    Notes: The amdS gene of A. nidulans has proved extremely favourable for the isolation of mutations affecting gene regulation. Trans-acting regulatory genes involved in amdS induction by small molecular weight effectors have been identified - amdR (ω-amino acids) facB (acetate) and amdA (acetate). Another gene, the areA gene, has properties expected of a major activator gene involved in nitrogen metabolite repression of amdS. All of these regulatory genes are also involved in the control of various other functions encoded by structural genes unlinked to amdS. Mutations in the 5′-region adjacent to amdS have been isolated and allow the identification of independent cis-acting sequences which are the target sites for the regulatory genes. The involvement of these sequences in regulatory product binding has been deduced from titration studies using transformants containing multiple copies of the 5′ sequences. A combination of genetics and molecular analysis is allowing a detailed characterization of this system.

    Notes: A computer-aided graphics approach to correlating transmission electron microscope images of freeze-fractured and thin-sectioned samples is outlined. Any three-dimensional model of the imaged structure can be mathematically sectioned to provide a two-dimensional representation of the model in the “fracture” plane. The method is used to demonstrate that the structure of lamellar liquid crystalline liposomes is based on a family of Dupin cyclides; closed, parallel surfaces with a conjugate ellipse and hyperbola as curvature defects.

    Description: Hemoparasitic diseases are endemic in half the world's livestock production areas and are the greatest obstacle to improved meat, milk, and fiber production in the Third World. The most prevalent of these diseases, anaplasmosis, occurs throughout tropical and subtropical regions and is responsible for 50,000 to 100,000 cattle deaths annually in the United States alone. Despite its prevalence and the severity of the losses, an effective immunoprophylaxis for anaplasmosis has not been developed. A neutralization-sensitive epitope on a surface protein with a molecular weight of 105,000 (Am 105) of the causative rickettsia Anaplasma marginale was identified by monoclonal antibody inhibition of infectivity. This epitope was determined to be common to eight isolates with antigenic, morphologic, and protein structural differences. Cattle immunized with Am 105 purified by immunoaffinity chromatography were protected against challenge with virulent Anaplasma marginale. The identification of Am 105 as bearing isolate-common epitopes capable of inducing protection in immunized cattle provides the basis for the development of an effective subunit vaccine for bovine anaplasmosis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Palmer, G H -- Barbet, A F -- Davis, W C -- McGuire, T C -- GM 07853/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1986 Mar 14;231(4743):1299-302.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3945825" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
