    Notes: Bone-specific expression of the osteocalcin gene is transcriptionally controlled. Deletion analysis of osteocalcin promoter sequences by transient transfection of osseous (ROS 17/2.8) and nonosseous (R2 fibroblast) cells revealed that the most proximal 108 nucleotides are sufficient to confer tissue-specific expression. By gel mobility shift assays with wild-type and mutated oligonucleotides and nuclear extracts from several different cell lines we identified a novel transcription factor complex which exhibits sequence-specific interactions with the primary transcriptional element, the OC box (nt -99 to -76). This OC box binding protein (OCBP) is present only in osteoblast-like cells. Methylation interference demonstrated association of the factor with OC box sequences overlapping the Msx homeodomain consensus binding site. By assaying several mutations of the OC box, both in gel shift and transient transfection studies using ROS 17/2.8, we show the following. First, binding of OCBP correlates with osteocalcin promoter activity in ROS 17/2.8 cells. Increased binding leads to a 2-3-fold increase in transcription, while decreased binding results in transcription 30-40% of control. Second, homeodomain protein binding suppresses transcription. However, Msx expression is critical for full development of the bone phenotype as determined by antisense studies. Last, we show that one of the mutations of the OC box permits expression of osteocalcin in non-osseous cell lines. In summary, we demonstrate association of at least two classes of tissue-restricted transcription factors with the OC box element, the OCBP and Msx proteins, supporting the concept that these sequences contribute to defining tissue specificity. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: PSP94 has shown potential to be a serum biomarker for evaluating prostate cancer. Studies of the epitope structure is crucial for this endeavour. In this article, we have used 15 different monoclonal antibodies (MAb) to analyse the epitope structure of PSP94 and to compare with the results obtained from our previous work using polyclonal antibody and recombinant PSP94. Firstly, we determined the relative activities of the 15 MAb population by direct and competitive ELISA. The two predominant MAbs (MAb PSP-6 and -19) in 15 MAbs were selected for further studies of the epitope structure. By comparing the binding activities of recombinant GST-PSP94 and natural PSP94 with MAbs, and by comparing their affinity with MAbs in an in vitro denaturing experiment, PSP94 was shown to have a similar, prevalently linear epitope structure as we demonstrated by polyclonal antibody. Using recombinant GST fusion protein with PSP94 and with each half of the N- and C-terminal 47 amino acids (GST-PSP-N47/C47) in E. coli cells, the different epitopes recognized by 15 monoclonal antibodies were delineated and the polar distribution of the epitope structure of PSP94 was characterized. Results of direct ELISA of recombinant N47 and C47 and their competitive binding against natural PSP94 (competitive ELISA) showed that the N- and C-termini represent the immuno-dominant and immuno-recessive area separately. A majority of the monoclonal antibodies (12/15) showed preferential binding of the N-terminal sequence of the PSP94 protein. Using GST-PSP-N47 as a standard protein, an epitope map of the 15 monoclonal antibodies was obtained. The results of this study will help to define the clinical utility of PSP94. J. Cell.

    Notes: Records of electrical activity in the tracheal muscles of domestic chickens were obtained for a variety of ad libitum vocalizations. Primary attention was given to an analysis of events during the most complex call, crowing.Three pairs of muscles, Mm. tracheohyoideus, tracheolateralis, and sternotrachealis, can affect the configuration of a chicken's syrinx. The firing patterns of the three muscle pairs are related to their different abilities to affect the tension of the syringeal membranes. The influence of M. tracheohyoideus is most indirect and imprecise, and its role the least clearly defined. It appears to adjust the position of the trachea so that the syrinx is isolated from unpredictable and/or undesirable consequences of nuchal position and tracheal elasticity, and also helps draw the glottis caudad, thereby deepening the pharyngeal chamber. The other two muscles interact to control the tension of the vocal membranes. M. sternotrachealis relaxes the membranes by drawing the drum of the trachea caudad, or, via the syringeal ligament, by rotating the pessulus cranioventrad, or both. M. tracheolateralis tenses the membranes and/or prevents caudal movement of the origin of M. sternotrachealis, a necessity if the syringeal ligament is to rotate the pessulus.Vocalization depends on both syringeal configuration and appropriate air flow. Hence, tracheal muscles, syrinx, air sacs, and ventilatory muscles cooperate to form a vocal system. Cooperation elicits a surprising degree of redundancy. At least one call, a high pitched wail, may be produced by two very different techniques.

    Notes: An approach is suggested for using ligands to control exchange coupling in multinuclear ions. The idea arose from structural, EPR, and magnetic studies of [PPh4]3 (Scheme 1). Ferromagnetic coupling has been found between the CoII and each CoIII in 3 with J = -22 ± 5 cm-1 (JS1 · S2). It is suggested that dominant antiferromagnetic superexchange is absent because of the strong σ-donor capacity of the tetradentate ligand [k4-PAC*]4- (Fig. 1). The ligand interacts at CoIII primarily with a single d orbital; it is thus best able to participate in superexchange. The interaction makes the unique d orbital strongly σ-antibonding and empty for each d6, S = 1, CoIII ion in 3, that is, unavailable for antiferromagnetic coupling, but available for ferromagnetic pathways by a Goodenough-Kanamori mechanism. By corollary, when any [k4-PAC*]4--type ligand with any magnetic ion Ma in the tetradentate site binds any magnetic ion Mb in the bidentate site, ferromagnetic coupling should be favored provided Ma is not a d9 ion.

    Notes: The new anionic functionalized aryldiamine ligands [2,6-(Me2NCH2)2-4-R-C6H2]- (R = Me3SiC≡C, C6H5, Me3-Si), formally derived from [2,6-(Me2-NCH2)2C6H3]-, have been prepared as their lithium compounds. The compound [Li{2,6-(Me2NCH2)2-4-Ph-C6H2}]2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c (no. 15) with a = 13.1225(5), b = 13.5844(7), c = 18.9859(12) Å, β = 105.329(5)°, V = 3264.0(3) Å3. Z = 4. The structure refinement converged to R1 = 0.0374 for 2037 observed reflections [Fo〉4σ(Fo)] and wR2 = 0.0922 for 2560 unique data. The organolithium compounds have been used in transmetalation reactions to give the corresponding functionalized organoruthenium(II) complexes [RuII{2,6-(Me2NCH2)2-4-R-C6H2}-(terpy)]+Cl- (terpy = 2,2′;6′,2′-terpyridine). The RuII species with R = HC°C has also been synthesized.

    Notes: The 22-membered macrocycle, spanning four endocyclic pyrazole groups, viz. 1,4,9,14,17,22,27,28,29,30-decaaza-5,13,18,26-tetramethylpentacyclo[24.2.1.14,7.111,14.117,20]triacontane-5,7(28),11(29),12,18,20(30),24(27),25-octaene (22Pz), rendered the tetranuclear compound [Cu4(22Pz)2(CO3)2(MeOH)2](ClO4)4(MeOH)4. The copper(II) ions are in distorted octahedral N3O3 environments. All four pyrazole groups of each macrocycle participate in the coordination of the copper(II) ions. The cationic part of this compound is in fact a dimer of two macrocyclic ligands, each containing two copper(II) ions bridged by two carbonate ions in the highly unusual pentacoordinating fashion.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under http://www.wiley-vch.de/contents/jc_2005/1999/98332_s.pdf or from the author.
