    Aggregation of huntingtin in neuronal intranuclear inclusions and dystrophic neurites in brain (1997)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1997-09-26
    Description: The cause of neurodegeneration in Huntington's disease (HD) is unknown. Patients with HD have an expanded NH2-terminal polyglutamine region in huntingtin. An NH2-terminal fragment of mutant huntingtin was localized to neuronal intranuclear inclusions (NIIs) and dystrophic neurites (DNs) in the HD cortex and striatum, which are affected in HD, and polyglutamine length influenced the extent of huntingtin accumulation in these structures. Ubiquitin was also found in NIIs and DNs, which suggests that abnormal huntingtin is targeted for proteolysis but is resistant to removal. The aggregation of mutant huntingtin may be part of the pathogenic mechanism in HD.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉DiFiglia, M -- Sapp, E -- Chase, K O -- Davies, S W -- Bates, G P -- Vonsattel, J P -- Aronin, N -- NS 16367/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS 31579/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 26;277(5334):1990-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA 02114, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9302293" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The origin of sample memory in the Chalk River accelerator mass spectrometry sputter ion source : Proceedings of the 6th international conference on ion sources (1996)

    Notes: The origin of memory effects in the Chalk River accelerator mass spectrometry sputter ion source has been studied by tracer and elastic-recoil-detection surface analysis techniques. For 36Cl measurements, the results indicate that the memory arises from contamination of the region immediately surrounding the sample and that it can be mitigated by operating this portion of the ion source above 350 °C. This has reduced memory effects by a factor of 10 or more and has resulted in a similar improvement in background. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Field experiments in Gloucestershire, UK, in the 1990–91, 1991–92, 1993–94 and 1994–95 growing seasons explored the merits of grazing in spring a traditional tall wheat (Triticum aestivum) variety, Maris Widgeon, with more modern shorter varieties. In the first 2 years, defoliation was achieved by mowing at 7 cm in March and/or April. In the second 2 years, varieties sown at two sowing dates were grazed by sheep at a stocking rate of 42 × 50 kg sheep ha−1 for 3 or 4 days in March. Defoliation reduced crop height and interception of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). In 1991–92, mowing significantly reduced grain yield of some of the shorter varieties but not of Maris Widgeon. This interaction was related to the amount of PAR intercepted. In this year, mowing improved the establishment of undersown white clover (Trifolium repens) and perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne), but in subsequent years the conditions were much drier and undersowing failed. In the last two experiments, grazing in March did not significantly reduce grain yield of any variety. The quality of the forage eaten by the sheep had a modified acid-detergent fibre (MADF) content of less than 300 g kg−1 dry matter (DM) and a crude protein (CP) content of more than 200 g kg−1 DM in both seasons. Yield of DM and calculated metabolizable energy (ME) of different varieties removed by the sheep interacted strongly with sowing date. September-sown Maris Widgeon provided ≈ 0·7 and 0·3 t DM ha−1 (or 7·8 and 3·4 GJ ME ha−1) in March 1994 and March 1995 respectively. However, the shorter wheat varieties, Hereward and Genesis, only provided 0·3 and 0·1 t DM ha−1 when sown at the same time in the 2 years. At later sowing dates all of the varieties only provided about 0·1 t DM ha−1 when sown in October 1993, or 0·01 t DM ha−1 when sown in November 1994. Sheep grazing reduced total weed biomass in June, and reduced the emergence of weed seedlings from soil samples collected after the wheat harvest. Effects of defoliation on foliar infection by Septoria tritici were inconsistent.

    An analysis of the dynamic response of stomatal conductance to a reduction in humidity over leaves of Cedrella odorata (1999)

    Notes: Single leaves of 3-month-old Cedrella odorata seedlings were exposed to a step reduction in the ambient dew point. The resultant time series of dynamic variations in leaf surface water vapour concentration, leaf surface water vapour concentration gradient, transpiration rate and stomatal conductance to water vapour, are analysed using the data-based mechanistic (DBM) modelling methodology of Young (e.g. Young & Lees 1992; Minchin et al. 1996 ). It is shown that the identified second-order, dynamic model between transpiration rate (as the input) and stomatal conductance (as the output) provides an appropriate, physiologically meaningful, description of the system. In particular, the dynamic relationship between these two variables is remarkably linear and can be resolved in terms of two parallel, first-order, subsystems; a model which complements the results of Cowan (1977) for cotton. The model is also compared with the recently published simulation model of Haefner, Buckley & Mott (1997).

    Regulation of tomato fruit growth by epidermal cell wall enzymes (1998)

    Notes: Water relations of tomato fruit and the epidermal and pericarp activities of the putative cell wall loosening and tightening enzymes Xyloglucan endotransglycosylase (XET) and peroxidase were investigated, to determine whether tomato fruit growth is principally regulated in the epidermis or pericarp. Analysis of the fruit water relations and observation of the pattern of expansion of tomato fruit slices in vitro, has shown that the pericarp exerts tissue pressure on the epidermis in tomato fruit, suggesting that the rate of growth of tomato fruit is determined by the physical properties of the epidermal cell walls. The epidermal activities of XET and peroxidase were assayed throughout fruit development. Temporal changes in these enzyme activities were found to correspond well with putative cell wall loosening and stiffening during fruit development. XET activity was found to be proportional to the relative expansion rate of the fruit until growth ceased, and a peroxidase activity weakly bound to the epidermal cell wall appeared shortly before cessation of fruit expansion. No equivalent peroxidase activity was detected in pericarp tissue of any age. It is therefore plausible that the expansion of tomato fruit is regulated by the combined action of these enzyme activities in the fruit epidermis.

    Notes: Detached barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) shoots, maintained at different air temperatures and VPDs, were fed ABA via the sub-crown internode in a leaf elongation assay. Analysis of variance of leaf elongation rate (LER) showed significant effects of temperature (T), fed [ABA] and the interaction T × [ABA]. However, the interaction became non-significant when LER was modelled against the [ABA] of the elongation zone, [EZ-ABA]When detached barley shoots were fed sap from droughted maize (Zea mays L.) plants, sap [ABA] could not explain the growth inhibitory activity. Measurement of [EZ-ABA] accounted for this ‘unexplained’ growth inhibition.The detached shoot experiments indicated that [EZ-ABA], and not xylem sap [ABA], was an appropriate explanatory variable to measure in droughted plants. However, ABA accumulation in the elongation zone could not explain a 35% growth reduction in intact droughted plants; thus we considered an interaction of water status and ABA.Using a coleoptile growth assay, we applied mild osmotic stresses (ψ=0 to −0.06 MPa) and 10−4 mol m−3 ABA. Individually, these treatments did not inhibit growth. However, osmotic stress and ABA applied together significantly reduced growth. This interaction may be an important mechanism in explaining leaf growth inhibition of droughted plants.

    Stomatal behaviour, photosynthesis and transpiration under rising CO2 (1999)

Definitions of the variables used and the units are given in 〈link href="#t1"〉Table 1

The literature reports enormous variation between species in the extent of stomatal responses to rising CO2. This paper attempts to provide a framework within which some of this diversity can be explained. We describe the role of stomata in the short-term response of leaf gas exchange to increases in ambient CO2 concentration by developing the recently proposed stomatal model of Jarvis & Davies (1998). In this model stomatal conductance is correlated with the functioning of the photosynthetic system so that the effects of increases in CO2 on stomata are experienced through changes in the rate of photosynthesis in a simple and mechanistically transparent way. This model also allows us to consider the effects of evaporative demand and soil moisture availability on stomatal responses to photosynthesis and therefore provides a means of considering these additional sources of variation. We emphasize that the relationship between the rate of photosynthesis and the internal CO2 concentration and also drought will have important effects on the relative gains to be achieved under rising CO2.〈tabular xml:id="t1"〉1〈title type="main"〉 .

    Whole-plant ABA flux and the regulation of water loss in Cedrella odorata (1997)

    Notes: Three-month-old Cedrella odorata seedlings were exposed to a soil-drying treatment. During this period, xylem sap was periodically collected from the plant by applying pneumatic pressure to the roots. This also allowed whole-plant water status to be measured by recording the balancing pressure applied. The concentration of ABA in xylem sap (C) was related to the whole-plant transpiration rate (V) which was measured with a sap flow gauge. The analysis of these paired measurements centred on how the reciprocal of C (R) varied with respect to V. This revealed that (1) the observed increases in C could not be explained by the reductions in V alone, (2) initially, decreases in V were associated with proportional increases in the whole-plant ABA flux (M), and (3) this relationship broke down at low values of V since zero flow was associated with a finite value for C estimated to be 41 pmol ABA mmol−1 H2O. A simple static model is developed from the observations that is able to explain the data well, and the results are discussed in terms of the effects of ABA on stomatal conductance (gsw).

    Notes: Abstract. A porcine small intestine directionally cloned cDNA library was constructed in the vector lambda Zap II. Clones were hybridized with total labeled cDNA such that putative high-copy number transcripts could be differentiated from middle- and low-copy number transcripts prior to selection and characterization by DNA sequencing. More than 2000 non-hybridizing and 242 hybridizing clones were collected. In total, 839 clones were sequenced from the 3′ end of the cDNA, and after inter-clone comparison, the unique clones were sequenced from the 5′ end of the cDNA. The 5′ data were used to query the sequence in databases and resulted in the identification of 630 different gene transcripts, of which 604 are new porcine genes. The identity of 361 transcripts could be identified from sequence comparison studies. The validity of this semi-random selection approach was verified by the identification of a large number of unique transcripts.
