    Notes: In the spermatogonia of all the genera studied, there are nineteen rod-shaped telomitic chromosomes, which differ considerably regarding their actual sizes in the different genera. However, an analysis of the measurements of second spermatocyte chromosomes shows that as regards proportional sizes and in seriation there is some degree of uniformity within the sub-family. In Aularches, Atractomorpha, Chrotogonus, Colemania and Pyrgomorpha, the members of the smallest pair of autosomes appear as roundish or oval bodies and are comparable in shape, relative size and behavior with the ‘small’ dot-like chromosomes of the general Acrididae, while in Orthacris and Zarytes they are not so and merge into the general series. The sex chromosome is the largest one in the complexes, or the second largest as in Poecilocerus. The usual forms of tetrads occur in the spermatocytes. It is found that the number of ring tetrads in any genus depends upon the length of its chromosomes; in genera with longer chromosomes there are more of them than in genera with shorter ones. While no final explanation has been offered regarding the chromosome relationship between this sub-family and the other Acrididae, some points arising out of the present study have been briefly discussed, and it is shown that a simple process of elimination of two pairs is not sufficient to explain the smaller chromosome number in Pyrgomorphinae.

    Notes: Mitotic spindles isolated from the diatom Stephanopyxis turris become thiophosphorylated in the presence of ATPγS at specific locations within the mitotic apparatus, resulting in a stimulation of ATP-dependent spindle elongation in vitro. Here, using indirect immunofluorescence, we compare the staining pattern of an antibody against thiophosphorylated proteins to that of MPM-2, an antibody against mitosis-specific phosphoproteins, in isolated spindles. Both antibodies label spindle poles, kinetochores, and the midzone. Neither antibody exhibits reduced labeling in salt-extracted spindles, although prior salt extraction inhibits thiophosphorylation in ATPγS. Furthermore, both antibodies recognize a 205 kd band on immunoblots of spindle extracts. Microtubule-organizing centers and mitotic spindles label brightly with the MPM-2 antibody in intact cells. These results show that functional mitotic spindles isolated from S. turris are phosphorylated both in vivo and in vitro. We discuss the possible role of phosphorylated cytoskeletal proteins in the control of mitotic spindle function.

    Notes: The presence of phosphorylated proteins associated with microtubule organizing centers in tissue culture cells during mitosis has been demonstrated by the use of monoclonal antibodies raised against mitotic HeLa cells [Vandre et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 81:4439-4443, 1984]. We report here that in Paramecium two of the mitosis specific antibodies, MPM-1 and MPM-2, decorate throughtout the cell cycle all the microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs) located in the cortex and in the oral apparatus (gullet). Immuno-electron microscopy showed that these antibodies labeled the electron-dense material surrounding basal bodies from which several microtubule networks as well as kinetodesmal fibers originate. During mitosis, these antibodies also stained other cortical cytoskeletal structures, the kinetodesmal fibers (MPM-1 and MPM-2) and the epiplasm (MPM-1). Among the different polypeptides recognized by the antibodies on immunoblots, three major ones of 60, 63, and 116 kDa were found to be common to the cortex (where several thousand ciliary basal bodies are anchored) and the oral apparatus (which comprises several hundred basal bodies around which various arrays of cytoplasmic microtubules are organized). Alkaline phosphatase treatment abolished the immunoreactivity of the polypeptides and the labeling observed by immunofluorescence. These results demonstrate that phosphorylated proteins are associated with all the known active microtubule organizing centers present in the cortex throughout the cell cycle of Paramecium. Furthermore they indicate that in Paramecium phosphorylation of proteins could also be involved in the cell cycle dependent dynamics of cortical cytoskeletal structures other than microtubules.

    Notes: We have identified a novel .ca 400 kDa cell-cycle dependent kinetochore associated protein in human cells, designated CENP-F, using human autoimmune serum. Immunofluorescence staining using the native serum, affinity purified antibodies, or antibodies raised against a cloned portion of CENP-F first reveals CENP-F homogeneously distributed throughout the nucleus of HeLa cells in the G2 stage of the cell cycle. Progression into prophase is accompanied by the localization of CENP-F to all the kinetochore regions of the karyotype. Kinetochore association is maintained throughout metaphase, but at the onset of anaphase CENP-F is no longer detected in association with the kinetochore but is found at the spindle mid-zone. By telophase, it is concentrated into a narrow band on either side of the midbody. Studies of the interaction of CENP-F with the kinetochore indicate that this protein associates with the kinetochore independent of tubulin and dissociation is dependent on events connected with the onset of anaphase. Nuclease digestion studies and immunoelectron-microscopy indicate that CENP-F is localized to the kinetochore plates and specifically to the outer surface of the outer kinetochore plate. The distribution of CENP-F closely parallels that of another high molecular weight kinetochore associated protein, CENP-E. Comparative studies indicate that there are antibodies in the CENP-F reactive autoimmune serum that recognize determinants present in the central helical rod domain of CENP-E. Immune depletion experiments confirm that CENP-F exhibits the distribution pattern in cells that was seen with the native autoimmune serum. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: We studied the effect of cytochalasins (B, D, and E) on the F-actin content in human neutrophils and lymphocytes using NBD-phallacidin labeling followed by flow cytometry. All three cytochalasins induced a concentration- and time-dependent increase in the F-actin content in both cell types. The order of potency was cytochalasin D 〉 E 〉 B. The increase in F-actin content was accompanied by a decrease in the G-actin content as measured by DNase I inhibition assay. These observations suggest that in intact cells cytochalasins may function differently compared to purified and semipurified systems, and their effects may be modified through other actin-binding or sequestering proteins. 2-deoxyglucose (20 mM) caused a decrease in the basal F-actin content and significantly reduced the change induced by the cytochalasins. These results suggest that the state of actin in intact cells is regulated by cytosolic ATP levels, primarily by the integrity of the glycolytic pathway. Based on these observations, we conclude that the mechanism of action of cytochalasins in intact cells is more complex than current models suggest.

    Notes: A kinetic model is developed for the drying of solids in fluidized beds, assuming a falling rate period following a constant rate period. Experimental data obtained using batch and continuous single and spiral fluidized beds are satisfactorily matched with the assumed drying kinetics and the residence time distribution of solids appropriate for the type of dryer.

    Notes: Unsteady axial mixing due to addition of a batch of sodium chloride solution at the top of a water-filled tube (2.63 cm i.d.) has been studied by measuring the developing concentration profile and the advancing front with dye added to the brine. Data have also been obtained with added baffle plates, with the use of a viscous aqueous solution, and in smaller diameter (1.48, 1.91 cm) tubes. Results can be approximately correlated by means of a model based on unsteady one-dimensional turbulent dispersion. Laminar flow affects the behavior of the advancing front at which the salt concentration is lowest.

    Notes: A mathematical model is developed to describe steady-state nonequilibrium surface diffusion of an adsorbing gas through an energetically homogeneous porous medium by assuming that the adsorption isotherm is linear and that the gas-surface mass transfer can be described by the linear driving force model. Analytical solutions for the model are reported. It is found that the conventional assumption of local thermodynamic equilibrium between the gas and surface phases within the porous medium can seriously underestimate the surface diffusivity when the mass transfer rate is finite. Also, the length of the porous medium becomes a critical variable in that case.Meaningful estimation of surface diffusivity also requires that the gas phase diffusivity through the porous medium be accurately known. The estimated surface diffusivity is model dependent when local thermodynamic equilibrium is not established instantaneously. Modeling surface diffusion can be very complex when the surface is energetically heterogeneous.

    Notes: A framework is developed to describe kinetics and column dynamics of ad(de)sorption from bulk liquid mixtures using surface excess as the variable to quantify the extent of adsorption. It is found that the transient rate of change of surface excess with time from a multicomponent liquid mixture can be expressed in terms of a surface excess linear-driving-force model. A local-equilibrium model can be developed to describe the column dynamics of ad(de)sorption from liquid mixtures. Both self-sharpening and proportionate pattern mass-transfer zones can be formed depending on the shape of the surface-excess isotherm and the selectivity of adsorption. Analysis of column dynamics for liquid mixture adsorption can be carried out analogous to that for adsorption from gas mixtures, when a constant pattern mass-transfer zone is formed. The length of the mass-transfer zone and the composition-time column effluent profile can also be derived analytically for such a case. Experimental kinetics and column dynamics data for ad(de)sorption of ethanol-water mixtures on a large-pore activated carbon are analyzed using these models.

    Notes: In this article, we present a model to describe sorption kinetics of gaseous adsorbates onto bidispersed heterogeneous microporous particles. This model describes adsorption and desorption of gaseous adsorbates with allowance for the energy distribution of adsorption site for both equilibrium isotherm and diffusion of the adsorbed species. The adsorbed species of all energy level diffuse in two directions inside the particle. One direction is the direction along the particle coordinate while the other is the direction perpendicular to the particle coordinate (that is, the direction into the grain of the solid). This model is more fundamental than models previously proposed by Do and coworkers. Effects of energy distribution on the adsorption and desorption dynamics are investigated. Extensive experimental analysis of adsorption and desorption dynamics of ethane and propane onto Ajax activated carbon are carried out to validate this theory.
