    Notes: The effects of the male antifertility agent, α-chlorohydrin, six of its derivatives, and glycidol were studied on the metabolism of washed ram spermatozoa in vitro with fructose as substrate. The α-chlorohydrin derivatives were the amino, the phosphorylated, and four glycol-bridge (ketal) compounds. All compounds except glycidol, in a concentration between 0.1 and 100 mM, reduced the aerobic glycolsis and/or oxidation of fructose. However, there was not a high correlation between the ability of these compounds to inhibit the metabolism of ram spermatozoa in vitro and their antifertility activity when administered to male rats. Other factors are clearly involved in their antifertility activity, eg, the concentration of the compounds in the epididymis and their conversion of either more or less spermicidal compounds in the body.

    Notes: Interactions of catecholamines with acidic sites in the biophase are likely to be involved in the control of the receptors activity as well as in storage and transport mechanisms. In view of the importance of the phenomena a model study of ethanolamine-phosphate complexes was made. The electrostatic interaction energy surface was calculated in the charge density multipole expansion approximation with terms up to quadrupole. The consecutive minimal energy conformation shows the importance for the interaction with the biophase of the catechol ring steric and electronic relation to the side chain.

    Notes: Aminoacyladenylates play a central part in both protein enzymatic and polypeptide prebiotic synthesis. Previous general studies on aminoacyladenylate conformations were extended to some aspects related to polypeptide prebiotic synthesis. Major conclusions drawn from these quantum mechanical PCILO calculations are: (1) In the presence of an ammonium group the glycylphosphate system forms a double seven-membered ring. This folded conformation possesses an important rigidity. This occurs in neutral or acidic solutions. It agrees with experimental observations showing that there is no polymerization in this case, in the absence of catalyst. Thus the catalytic part of montmorillonite clays, which can break the ring by compensation of the anionic and cationic charges, can be understood. (2) When the amine group remains in its neutral form (in basic solutions), numerous stereo structures are allowed for the glycylphosphate stem, among which a ring of weak stability. This is still in good agreement with the observation of polycondensation at high pH without catalyst. (3) The phosphate linking system is flexible enough to allow the extension of the polypeptide chain between the clay layers. This is in accordance with the mechanism proposed by Paecht-Horowitz in which the phosphate is locked on the edge of the montmorillonite sheet.

    Notes: Standard histological and SEM techniques have been used to examine the pair of statocyst organs located in the telson of the isopod, Cyathara polita. Each organ is formed as an invagination of the dorsal cuticle of the telson. The invagination narrows to form a stalk between the statocyst and dorsal surface. A canal courses longitudinally through this stalk and forms a continuous channel between the lumen of the cyst and the external environment. On the luminal floor of each statocyst, there are three pits; each correlates with a nodule protruding from the ventro-medial wall. From each pit, a single, bifurcating hair projects dorsally to contact the single concretion within the statocyst lumen. No other static organs have been found in this animal. Thus, maintenance of equilibrium in this species appears to be under the control of but six hairs, three in each statocyst. Innervation of each statocyst is provided by a branch of a nerve which connects anteriorly with the last abdominal ganglion.

    Notes: As a component of studies to search for effects of 60-Hz electric field exposure on mammalian endocrine function, concentrations of melatonin, 5-methoxytryptophol, and serotonin-Nacetyl transferase activity were measured in the pineal glands of rats exposed or sham-exposed at 65 kV/m for 30 days. In two replicate experiments there were statistically significant differences between exposed and control rats in that the normal nocturnal increase in pineal melatonin content was depressed in the exposed animals. Concentrations of 5-methoxytryptophol were increased in the pineal glands of the exposed groups when compared to shamexposed controls. An alteration was also observed in serotonin-N-acetyl transferase activity, with lower levels measured in pineal glands from exposed animals.

    Notes: There have been a number of reports in the literature concerning growth-related changes in various animal species exposed to high-strength electric fields. Many of the laboratories reporting such effects have not documented and controlled for the secondary factors that are associated with generating high-strength electric fields (ie, corona, ozone, harmonic distortion, cage vibration, spark discharge). We have designed an exposure system in which we eliminated or minimized these secondary factors, therefore enabling us to examine only the effects of electric fields per se. Sprague-Dawley rats and Swiss-Webster mice were exposed to 60-Hz electric fields at kV/m for up to four months. In 17 individual experiments, we found a greater number of experiments in which the exposed rats had lower body weights than controls. This trend was not evident in data obtained from 14 individual mouse experiments. In more exhaustive growth studies, we found no significant differences in body weights, organ weights, or O2 consumption between exposed and sham-exposed controls. Our failure to detect any major changes in growth was probably the result of eliminating or minimizing the secondary factors associated with electric field exposure.

    Notes: In a study of the regulation of enzyme patterns in imaginal discs the aldehyde oxidase pattern was determined for some homoeotic mutations of D. melanogaster. Earlier indications that suggested that this pattern follows the determinitive state of compartments within imaginal discs were confirmed by the aldehyde oxidase (AO) pattern of both the wing and haltere discs from en1; bx3, en1; pbx, and en1; bx3 pbx larvae and the antennal discs from Antp73b and ssa larvae.We additionally analyzed whether AO activity depended on the determinative state of an entire compartment or was expressed autonomously in clones. Homozygous engrailed clones were induced by mitotic recombination. From the AO clones found in normally negative areas of the posterior compartment it was concluded that enzyme activity depended upon the determinative state of the cells and was not a function of the compartment as a whole.The results are described with reference to a scheme in which compartmental and subcompartmental selector genes are thought to determine a binary code on which AO patterns depend.

    Notes: Making use of different information measures, the Pauli exclusion principle and the first Hund rule were found to be related to a trend toward acquiring a maximum information content of the atoms and molecules, and more generally, for any fermion system. The bosons conversely always have a minimum (zero) information content with respect to the permutation symmetry of their wave functions. Some new interpretations of the Pauli principle are presented.

    Notes: Infrared spectroscopy has been employed to study possible base pair interactions, in nonpolar media, between O6-methylguanine and uracil, cytosine and adenine; and between derivatives of N4-hydroxycytosine and adenine. The association constants of O6-methylguanine with uracil, cytosine, and adenine are well below 1M-1, whereas those for interaction of 1-methyl-N4-methoxycytosine and its 5-methyl derivative with adenine are identical, K = 14M-1. The significance of the latter finding is discussed in relation to the conformation of the exocyclic N4-methoxy group. Quantum chemical calculations, with the aid of the perturbation method, were carried out for the interaction of O6-methylguanine with uracil, cytosine, and adenine, to establish the most energetically favoured configurations for interactions of the free bases, and of the same base pairs in the B form of DNA. The role of the conformation of the exocyclic  - OCH3 group in O6-methylguanine is discussed. The relevance of both the experimental and theoretical results to mutagenesis by O6-methylguanine and N4-hydroxycytosine is examined.

    Notes: It is the intent of this article to illustrate certain aspects of the present status of electrochemistry as regards theoretical interpretations. First a brief critical review of classical electrochemical kinetics is given and the directions are indicated in which improvement in theoretical treatments are hardly needed. Next, experimental results on the cathodic discharge of tin in darkness and in light are presented, and a tentative explanation based on the assumption that adatoms (and not adions) diffuse on the electrode surface as a result of stabilization by light is presented.
