    Notes: The chemokine receptor CCR5 and to a lesser extent CCR2b and CCR3 have been shown to serve as coreceptors for HIV-1 entry into macrophages. Individuals that are homozygous for a defective CCR5 allele (ΔCCR5) are highly, but not fully, resistant to infection with HIV-1. Here, we want to emphasize the importance of ΔCCR5 in in vitro as well as in vivo studies. We provide data that suggest that CCR5 polymorphism may affect the onset of AIDS dementia complex in vivo and data that show that HIV-1 replication is influenced by the ΔCCR5 allele in vitro. Knowing the CCR5 genotype of an individual will help to better interpret research results and may even provide new information about mechanisms of disease.

    The localization of histone H3.3 in germ line chromatin of Drosophila males as established with a histone H3.3-specific antiserum (1997)

    Notes: Abstract. A rabbit antiserum, specific for the histone H3.3 replacement variant, was raised with the aid of a histone H3.3-specific peptide. Immuno blot experiments demonstrated the specificity of this polyclonal antiserum. In addition, we showed on immuno blots that two monoclonal antibodies isolated from mice with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) display strong reactivity with the H3.3 histone, but not with its replication-dependent counterparts. Our observations indicate that histone H3.3 might play a role as autoantigen in SLE. We used the histone H3.3-specific antiserum to characterize the germ line chromatin in cytological preparations of Drosophila testes, because our previous studies had shown that a histone H3.3-encoding gene is strongly expressed in the germ line of Drosophila males. The antiserum reacted with some of the lampbrush loops in spermatocytes and with chromatin of the postmeiotic germ cells of males. Our data indicate that histone H3.3 is not evenly distributed throughout the chromatin of germ cells, but is concentrated in distinct regions. Histone H3.3 disappears from the spermatid nuclei, along with the other core histones, during the late stages of spermatogenesis. In Drosophila polytene chromosomes, however, a rather uniform distribution of the histone H3.3 was observed. The possible role of histone H3.3 is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper we investigate whether torsion,which arises naturally in most theories of quantumgravity, has observable implications for the Big Bangnucleosynthesis. Torsion can lead to spin flips amongst neutrinos thus turning them into sterileneutrinos. In the early Universe they can alter thehelium abundance which is tightly constrained byobservations. Here I calculate to what extent torsion ofthe string theory type leads to a disagreement withthe Big Bang nucleosynthesis predictions.

    Microbial Dynamics Associated with Multiphasic Decomposition of 14C-Labeled Cellulose in Soil (1997)

    Notes: Abstract Recent emphasis on residue management in sustainable agriculture highlights the importance of elucidating the mechanisms of microbial degradation of cellulose. Cellulose decomposition and its associated microbial dynamics in soil were investigated in incubation experiments. Population dynamics of actinomycetes, bacteria, and fungi were monitored by direct counts. Populations of oligotrophic bacteria in cellulose-amended soil were determined by plate count using a low C medium containing 4 mg C liter−1 agar, and copiotrophs using a high C medium. Cumulative 14CO2 evolution from 14C-labeled cellulose was best described by a multiphasic curve in a 28-day incubation experiment. The initial phase of decomposition was attributed mainly to the activity of bacterial populations with a low oligotroph-to-copiotroph ratio, and the second phase mainly to fungal populations. An increase in oligotroph-to-copiotroph ratio coincided with the emergence of a rapid 14CO2 evolution stage. Streptomycin reduced 14CO2 evolution during the first phase and prompted earlier emergence of the second phase, compared to the control. Cycloheximide initially promoted 14CO2 evolution but subsequently had a lasting negative effect on 14CO2 evolution. Cycloheximide addition significantly increased bacterial biomass and resulted in substantially stronger oscillation of active bacterial populations, whereas it initially reduced, and then stimulated, active fungal biomass. The observed changes in 14CO2 evolution could not be explained by observed shifts in fungal and bacterial biomass, probably because functional groups of fungi and bacteria could not be distinguished. However, it was suggested that oligotrophic bacteria prompted activation of cellulolytic enzumes in fungi and played an important role in leading to fungal dominance of cellulose decomposition.

    Notes: Abstract Crop roots provide dynamic nutrient environments within agroecosystems that can influence the relative abundance and activity of oligotrophic and copiotrophic microorganisms. Copiotrophic organisms grow in carbon (C)-rich environments and their distribution implies that C abundance favors their survival. Survival of oligotrophic organisms is dependent on their ability to multiply and maintain activity in habitats of low C flux. To determine if spatial variation in available C along the root coincides with different physiological groups of bacteria, we isolated bacteria from the rhizosphere at different locations along the tap root of lettuce and tomato plants grown under greenhouse and field conditions. In all five experiments, the overall numbers of both oligotrophs and copiotrophs were high at the upper portions of the root and lower at tip locations and in the bulk soil environment. Consistent patterns in the ratio of copiotrophic to oligotrophic (C:O) bacteria along the roots of lettuce and tomato were obtained and clearly showed that the C:O ratio was different for these two crop species. With lettuce, C:O ratios were high at the root tip (1.22 to 1.61) and upper mid-root locations (0.90 to 1.30), intermediate at the lower mid-root locations (0.73 to 0.95), and low at the root base (0.56 to 0.76). With tomato, C:O ratios were low at root tip locations (0.50 to 0.68) and high at mid and base locations along the root (1.20 to 1.28). These differences may reflect qualitative and quantitative differences in root exudates between these crop species. In our experiments, nitrogen (N) concentrations and lateral branch sites, providing C sources, were important factors influencing bacterial populations in the rhizosphere of lettuce and tomato. Competitive interactions between microorganisms and physiological constraints with respect to substrate affinity may be two important mechanisms influencing bacterial populations and structure of rhizosphere communities.

    Moving Waves of Bacterial Populations and Total Organic Carbon along Roots of Wheat (1999)

    Notes: Abstract To determine if spatial variation in soluble carbon sources along the root coincides with different trophic groups of bacteria, copiotrophic and oligotrophic bacteria were enumerated from bulk soil and rhizosphere samples at 2 cm intervals along wheat roots 2, 3, and 4 weeks after planting. There was a moderate rhizosphere effect in one experiment with soil rich in fresh plant debris, and a very pronounced rhizosphere effect in the second experiment with soil low in organic matter. We obtained wavelike patterns of both trophic groups of bacteria as well as water-soluble total organic carbon (TOC) along the whole root length (60 or 90 cm). TOC concentrations were maximal at the root tip and base and minimal in the middle part of the roots. Oscillations in populations of copiotrophic and oligotrophic bacteria had two maxima close to the root tip and at the root base, or three maxima close to the tip, in the middle section, and at the root base. The location and pattern of the waves in bacterial populations changed progressively from week to week and was not consistently correlated with TOC concentrations or the location of lateral root formation. Thus, the traditional view that patterns in bacterial numbers along the root directly reflect patterns in exudation and rhizodeposition from several fixed sources along the root may not be true. We attributed the observed wavelike patterns in bacterial populations to bacterial growth and death cycles (due to autolysis or grazing by predators). Considering the root tip as a moving nutrient source, temporal oscillations in bacterial populations at any location where the root tip passed would result in moving waves along the root. This change in concept about bacterial populations in the rhizosphere could have significant implications for plant growth promotion and bioremediation.

    Notes: Abstract  The human MAGE3 gene is expressed in a significant proportion of tumors of various histological types, but is silent in normal adult tissues other than testis and placenta. Antigens encoded by MAGE3 may therefore be useful targets for specific antitumor immunization. Two antigenic peptides encoded by the MAGE3 gene have been reported previously. One is presented to cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) by HLA-A1, the other by HLA-A2 molecules. Here we show that MAGE3 also codes for a peptide that is presented to CTL by HLA-B44. MAGE3 peptides containing the HLA-B44 peptide binding motif were synthesized. Peptide MEVDPIGHLY, which showed the strongest binding to HLA-B44, was used to stimulate blood T lymphocytes from normal HLA-B44 donors. CTL clones were obtained that recognized not only HLA-B44 cells sensitized with the peptide, but also HLA-B44 tumor cell lines expressing MAGE3. The proportion of metastatic melanomas expressing the MAGE3/HLA-B44 antigen should amount to approximately 17% in the Caucasian population, since 24% of individuals carry the HLA-B44 allele and 76% of these tumors express MAGE3.

    Notes: Abstract  Daudi Burkitt’s lymphoma cells, unlike other tumor cell lines, stimulate human T cells coexpressing the variable (V) region genes TCRG-V9 and V TCRD-V2 to proliferate and secrete lymphokines. Hybrids, derived by the fusion of Daudi cells with the human melanoma cell line MZ2-MEL 2.2, retain the morphology of melanoma cells. Unlike the parental melanoma cell line, these Daudi × MZ2-MEL 2.2 hybrids stimulate secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) by CD4-positive Vγ9/Vδ2 T-cell clones. Whereas the stimulator phenotype of Daudi cells behaves as a dominant trait in Daudi × melanoma hybrids, the expression of B-cell differentiation markers is suppressed. Thus, the γ/δ T-cell ligand expressed by Daudi cells behaves as a dominant tumor antigen in Daudi × melanoma hybrids and is unrelated to the differentiated B-cell phenotype. Dominant expression of the Daudi ligand for human Vγ9/Vδ2 T cells in these hybrids may provide a basis for defining the stimulatory principle at the molecular level.
