    Notes: Detonation velocities were measured in mixtures of hydrogen and oxygen containing 25 to 75 mole % hydrogen at initial temperatures from 160° to 580°K. and initial pressures from 1/2 to 2 atm. The measurements were made in a number of tubes of different diameter to permit extrapolation to a tube of infinite diameter. Theoretical detonation characteristics were computed for the same range of conditions. The measured and computed velocities are in good agreement except in rich mixtures and at subatmospheric pressures. Schlieren photographs reveal that the detonation wave front is very thin for a stoichiometric mixture but degenerates to a complicated zone of interacting shock waves and turbulent combustion as the percentage of hydrogen is reduced. The detonation velocity is found to depend only slightly on initial temperature and pressure. The computed pressures behind the detonation and reflected waves are roughly proportional to initial pressure and to the reciprocal of the initial temperature.

    Notes: The total energy, internuclear distance, vertical ionization potential, and electron density function were determined for the hydrogen molecule (H2) with a configuration interaction calculation, a Hartree-Fock calculation, all 22 density functional theory (DFT) methods built into Gaussian 92/DFT, and the Davidson and Jones natural orbital expansion of the Kolos and Roothaan wave function. These data were used to explore the performance of DFT methods in modeling the chemical bond. We noted that although the vertical ionization potentials suggested by the highest occupied molecular orbital energies of DFT methods are generally quite poor, the medium-range bahavior of the electron density from DFT methods is close to that of more accurately determined electron densities. Accordingly, we propose a method of finding an approximate vertical ionization potential for a density functional calculation from the medium-range behavior of the electron density. We explain why the density functionals' electron densities decay in a manner different from that which their orbital energies lead us to expect and explore the relationship between the errors in the exchange-correlation potentials, electron densities, and the orbital energies.   © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: In connective tissue, cell structure contributes to type I collagen expression. Differences in osteoblast microarchitecture may account for the two distinct cis elements regulating basal expression, in vivo and in vitro, of the rat type I collagen α1(I) polypeptide chain (COL1A1). The COL1A1 promoter conformation may be the penultimate culmination of osteoblast structure. Architectural transcription factors bind to the minor groove of AT-rich DNA and bend it, altering interactions between other trans-acting proteins. Similarly, nuclear matrix (NM) proteins bind to the minor groove of AT-rich matrix-attachment regions, regulating transcription by altering DNA structure. We propose that osteoblast NM architectural transcription factors link cell structure to promoter geometry and COL1A1 transcription. Our objective was to identify potential osteoblast NM architectural transcription factors near the in vitro and in vivo regulatory regions of the rat COL1A1 promoter. Nuclear protein-promoter interactions were analyzed by gel shift analysis and related techniques. NM extracts were derived from rat osteosarcoma cells and from rat bone. The NM protein, NMP4, and a soluble nuclear protein, NP, both bound to two homologous poly(dT) elements within the COL1A1 in vitro regulatory region and proximal to the in vivo regulatory element. These proteins bound within the minor groove and bent the DNA. Parathyroid hormone increased NP/NMP4 binding to both poly(dT) elements and decreased COL1A1 mRNA in the osteosarcoma cells. NP/NMP4-COL1A1 promoter interactions may represent a molecular pathway by which osteoblast structure is coupled to COL1A1 expression. J. Cell. Biochem. 69:336-352. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Stability of heterologous protein expression during production is critical for regulatory approval of vaccine and therapeutic products. Leishmania GP63, a zinc metalloproteinase that is a potential vaccine candidate, has been expressed on the surface of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Flow cytometry was used to follow the stability of GP63 expression. Expression of proteolytically active GP63 (GP63WT) was unstable whether or not methotrexate (MTX) selection was maintained. In contrast, expression of an active site mutant (GP63E265D) was stable under MTX selection. In the absence of selection, the decline in GP63E265D expression was more gradual than the loss of GP63WT expression. Different molecular mechanisms accounted for these losses and resulted in higher growth rate nonproducer populations. A dynamic population model was used to calculate the conversion rates of GP63WT producers to nonproducers. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng 53: 594-600, 1997.

    Notes: Fibronectin (FN) is an important adhesive noncollagenous glycoprotein involved in maintenance of the extracellular matrix and cell adhesiveness, loss of which has been implicated in the metastatic potential of cells. Regulation of FN occurs at the transcriptional level by the active metabolite of vitamin D3, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3). Transient transfection of homologous and heterologous promoter reporter constructs into ROS 17/2,8 (rat osteosarcoma), NIH 3T3 (mouse fibroblast), and MCF-7 (human mammary carcinoma) cell lines showed a consistent two- to threefold induction of transcription when stimulated with 1,25-(OH)2D3. These heterologous promoter transfection studies with gel shift analysis locate a third, natural DR6-type vitamin D responsive element (VDRE) at nucleotide positions -171 to -154 in the murine FN promoter. Interestingly, this VDRE is also present in rat and human FN promoters. This study shows that 1,25-(OH)2D3 induces FN transcription from an existing elevated basal transcriptional activity by acting through two putative hexameric core binding motifs which bind VDR homodimers. Furthermore, the FN VDRE is the first homodimer-type VDRE that is not overlaid by a DR3-type structure. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Sequential activation of cell type-specific genes occurs during osteoblast development. The promoter of one such gene, osteocalcin, has been widely studied, but the DNA sequences that govern osteoblast-specific expression have not been defined. The proximal osteocalcin promoter linked to pTKCAT directs strong promoter activity in osteoblast-like ROS17/2.8 cells and comparatively weak promoter activity in nonosteoblastic NIH3T3 cells. To identify sequences important in conferring cell-specific expression of the osteocalcin gene, a deletion series of the human proximal promoter was constructed and the activities assessed in ROS17/2.8 and NIH3T3 cells. These studies identified a 30 bp sequence within the proximal promoter (osteocalcin repressor element-1 [ORE-1]) which is responsible for repressing the transcriptional activity in NIH3T3 cells. In electrophoretic mobility shift assays from both NIH3T3 and ROS17/2.8 cells, a protein complex bound to the ORE-1 that was related to a complex which binds the G/C-rich repressor element in the collagen type I (α1) promoter. In addition, there was a second complex from NIH3T3 cells but not ROS17/2.8 cells that bound the ORE-1 fragment. The presence of this additional factor in NIH3T3 cells parallels the observation that constructs carrying the ORE-1 sequence have repressed promoter activity relative to the analogous constructs lacking the ORE-1 when transfected into NIH3T3 and suggests that the NIH3T3-specific factor is a repressor. These data indicate that the G/C element in the ORE-1 contributes to the repression of osteocalcin gene transcription in a nonosteoblast cell line. The high homology between the ORE-1 sequence and a related sequence and a related sequence in the collagen type I (α2) proximal promoter suggests that homologous regions in other osteoblast-expressed genes may function similarly.

    Notes: Homeodomain proteins are characterized by a conserved domain with a helix-turn-helix motif. These proteins act as regulatory factors in tissue differentiation and proliferation. However, their role in the regulation of osteoblast differentiation is unknown. In this study we have identified and characterized a homeobox gene in osteoblast-like cells. This gene, termed rHox, was isolated from a cDNA library derived from rat osteoblast-like cells. The nucleotide sequence of the 1,375 base pair (bp) cDNA contains a noncoding leader sequence of 329 bp, a 735 bp open reading frame, and 312 bp of 3′ noncoding sequence. Sequence comparison demonstrates that rHox is identical to the mouse Pmx gene (also called MHox) at the amino acid level and 90% homologous at the nucleotide level. Both Southwestern blotting and gel shift analyses indicate that rHox has potential to bind both the collagen l α 1 and the osteocalcin promoters. Transfection experiments using an rHox expression vector showed a strong repression of target promoter activity, regardless of whether the target promoters contained homeodomain binding reponse elements. These data suggest that rHox is a potent negative regulator of gene expression, although the specific role of rHox in bone gene regulation remains to be determined. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The receptors for retinoic acid (RA) and for 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD), RAR, RXR, and VDR are ligand-inducible members of the nuclear receptor superfamily. These receptors mediate their regulatory effects by binding as dimeric complexes to response elements located in regulatory regions of hormone target genes. Sequence scanning of the tumor necrosis factor-α type I receptor (TNFαRI) gene identified a 3′ enhancer region composed of two directly repeated hexameric core motifs spaced by 2 nucleotides (DR2). On this novel DR2-type sequence, but not on a DR5-type RA response element, VD was shown to act through its receptor, the vitamin D receptor (VDR), as a repressor of retinoid signalling. The repression appears to be mediated by competitive protein-protein interactions between VDR, RAR, RXR, and possibly their cofactors. This VDR-mediated transrepression of retinoid signaling suggests a novel mechanism for the complex regulatory interaction between retinoids and VD. J. Cell.
