    Notes: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays an important role in growth and differentiation. The human placenta expresses high levels of the receptor. In the placenta, as in many other human tissues, EGFR is encoded by two RNA transcripts of 5.8 kb and 10.5 kb. The placenta also expresses a putative truncated EGFR transcript of 1.8 kb, which encodes only the ligand binding domain of the receptor. The etiology and role of these variant EGFR transcripts is unknown. Using the human placenta as a model to study this area, we report (1) the relationships among these transcripts suggest that the induction of alternate pathways of EGFR RNA processing is involved in their etiologies; (2) the 10.5 kb transcript may be the principal transcript involved in determining the level of the protein receptor; and (3) the isolation of a soluble protein with characteristics consistent with a translational product corresponding to the 1.8 kb transcript, which may act in regulating the activity of EGFR. Together these results suggest that alternate processing of EGFR RNA into variant transcripts may represent a novel mechanism involved in the regulation of the receptor protein. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The mechanisms of wear in ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) acetabular cups were investigated on both laboratory simulator-tested cups and a clinically retrieved component. Two different levels of wear process were identified: one characterized by the formation and detachment of platelet-like flakes from initial machining marks, and the other by the formation of fine ripples and fibrils by repeated passes of microscopic asperities on the femoral head. Both wear processes could be described by a criterion of critical plastic strain. A theoretical model was developed to account for the generation of the microscopic wear particles based on such a critical strain criterion. Its predictions of the dependence of the UHMWPE wear rate on surface roughness and applied load were in excellent agreement with previously published experimental correlations. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Saccharomyces cerevisiae possesses a single essential gene (GLC7) encoding protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). Elevated expression of this gene from the GAL1 promoter is highly detrimental to the cell, causing a growth defect and aberrant bud morphology, which leads to cells exhibiting long, extended buds. By comparison, expression of GLC7 from the weaker MET3 promoter was without significant effect on either growth or morphology. However, repression of GLC7 expression from the MET3 promoter in cells where the MET3-GLC7 fusion was the sole source of PP1 resulted in a mitotic delay. Such cultures showed a massive decrease in the rate of proliferation in conjunction with a significant increase in the proportion of large, budded cells. 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole dihydrochloride (DAPI) staining and anti-tubulin immunofluorescence analysis of these cells revealed that many were blocked in mitosis, with a short spindle and DAPI-stained material stretched between the mother and daughter cell within the bud neck. These results support a role for PP1 in the completion of mitosis in S. cerevisiae.

    Notes: Permittivity ∊′ and dielectric loss ∊″ of novolac have been determined in the temperature interval from  - 150 to 150°C and in the frequency interval from 102.5 to 106 Hz. Novolac exhibits a main and a secondary relaxation process. For the main relaxation a master curve of ∊″ was calculated, the shape of which was described by the Havriliak - Negami function (HN). The parameters of the HN fit were interpreted by a model that relates the values to the polymer structure. Furthermore, the temperature dependence of the dielectric relaxation times was analyzed by a WLF approach for the main relaxation and an Arrhenius approach for the secondary relaxation. The dielectric relaxation times of the main relaxation were correlated with the electrical conductivity and the melt viscosity.

    Description: In response to specific ligands, various STAT proteins (signal transducers and activators of transcription) are phosphorylated on tyrosine by Jak protein kinases and translocated to the nucleus to direct gene transcription. Selection of a STAT at the interferon gamma receptor as well as specific STAT dimer formation depended on the presence of particular SH2 groups (phosphotyrosine-binding domains), whereas the amino acid sequence surrounding the phosphorylated tyrosine on the STAT could vary. Thus, SH2 groups in STAT proteins may play crucial roles in specificity at the receptor kinase complex and in subsequent dimerization, whereas the kinases are relatively nonspecific.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Heim, M H -- Kerr, I M -- Stark, G R -- Darnell, J E Jr -- AI32489/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI34420/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1995 Mar 3;267(5202):1347-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Cell Biology, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7871432" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
