    Notes: Effects of time, temperature, and pH during the steam explosion of poplar wood were studied with the aim of optimize both pentoses recovery and enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency. Steam explosion of acid impregnated wood chips allowed the recovery of 70% of potential xylose as monomers (217°C, 120 s) Enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated fiber with Trichoderma reesei CL-847 cellulase system increased progressively with the severity of the steam treatment conditions. The best yield in term of glucose recovery after 24 h of enzymatic hydrolysis was 70% of potential glucose (225°C, 120 s). Deactivation by adsorption on lignin of Trichoderma reesei cellulases and inhibition of these enzymes by low-molecular-weight phenols and trihydroxybutyric acids were noticed.

    Notes: Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and pOb24 mRNAs are known to be early markers of adipose cell differentiation. Comparative studies of the expression of pOb24 and LPL genes during adipose conversion of Ob1771 preadipocyte cells and in mouse adipose tissue have shown the following: (1) the expression of both genes takes place at confluence; this event can also be triggered by growth arrest of exponentially growing cells at the G1/S stage of the cell cycle; (2) In contrast to glycerol-3°phosphate dehydrogenase mRNA, the emergence of pOb24 and lipoprotein lipase mRNAs requires neither growth hormone or tri-iodothyronine as obligatory hormones nor insulin as a modulating hormone; (3) in mouse adipose tissue, pOb24 mRNA is present at a high level in stromal-vascular cells and at a low level in mature adipocytes, and in contrast LPL mRNAs are preferentially expressed in mature adipocytes. Thus, these two genes do not appear to be regulated in a similar manner, as also shown by the differential inhibition of their expression by tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β ).

    Notes: Fragile X-linked mental retardation is an enigmatic inheritable syndrome in which severe mental retardation, a cytogenetically detectable fragile site at Xq27.3 (FraX) and a number of dysmorphic features are associated. Genetic analysis shows that the mode of inheritance is more complex than a straightforward X-linked recessive trait and probably involves a two-step process for which several models have been proposed. Early attempts ‘at cloning the fragile site’ provided several DNA segments lying in its general vicinity, and large scale DNA mapping methods were extensively applied in an effort to generate maps including this region. These efforts were complemented by more focussed methods such as microdissection; together these approaches have now provided a number of DNA segments within a 5cM interval around FraX, and with the help of these new probes the site is indeed being cloned. Unravelling the nature of the sequence(s) responsible for the mental retardation syndrome will probably take some time, however.

    Notes: It is useful to envision two fundamentally different ways by which the timing of plant development is regulated: developmental stage-transition mechanisms and time-to-flowering mechanisms. The existence of both mechanisms is indicated by the behavior of various mutants. Shoot stage transitions are defined by dominant mutants representing at least four different genes; each mutant retards transitions from juvenile shoot stages to more adult shoot stages. In addition, dominant leaf stage-transition mutants in at least seven different genes have similar phenotypes, but the leaf rather than the shoot is the. focus (and at least two of these genes encode domain proteins.) One mutant, Hairy sheath frayed 1-0 (Hsf1-O) simultaneously affects shoot and leaf; this mutant's behavior initiated our interest in plant heterochronism(1). The second type of timekeeping involves time-to-flowering. As with most plant but not animals species, cultivars of the maize species vary greatly for the time-to-flowering quantitative trait: between 6 and 14 weeks is common. It is via the 'slipping time frames' interaction that takes place between stage-transition mutants and time-to-flowering genetic back-grounds that unexpected and radical phenotypes occur. We see a reservoir of previously unsuspected morphological possibilities among the few heterochronic genotypes we have constructed, possibilities that may mimic the sort of variation needed to fuel macroevolution without having to posit (as done by Goldschmidt(2)) any special macromutational mechanisms.

    Notes: Markers of endothelium have been studied in a new endothelial cell line derived from human umbilical cord vein cells by microinjection of a recombinant gene that includes a deletion mutant of the human vimentin gene regulatory region controlling the large T and small t antigen coding region of the SV40 virus. In culture, this immortalized venous endothelial cell line (IVEC) demonstrated morphological characteristics of endothelium; uptake of acetylated low density lipoprotein and presence of the Factor VIII-related antigen. Treatment of IVEC cells with Interleukin-1β (IL-1 β) at 10 U.ml-1 activates the expression of cell adhesion molecules such as endothelial leucocyte adhesion molecule (ELAM-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), as observed in primary culture. Prostacyclin secretion was induced in the IVEC cells by 100 nM PMA treatment and thrombin at 0.5 U/ml. Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activity detected in IVEC cells was present but lower than ACE activity in primary endothelial cells and was completely blocked by enalaprilat (1 μM), a specific ACE inhibitor. The presence of ACE mRNA was also demonstrated in IVEC cells by RT-PCR amplification. Our data demonstrate that endothelial cells immortalized by use of this recombinant gene retain the morphological organization and numerous differentiated properties of endothelium. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Free-flow isoelectric focusing was adapted to preparative scale separations and chemical engineering methods were used to describe the main mechanisms operating in the apparatus. A mixture of human serum albumin (pI 4.6) and β-lactoglobulin (pI 5.22) was separated in pH gradients, generated with carrier ampholytes of different origin and covering the pH ranges 4-6.5, 3.5-5, 4-5.5 and 4.5-5.0. Best results were obtained in the pH 4-5.5 range. The experimental results have validated the results obtained with a numerical model.

    Notes: The intra- and inter-species differentiation of 90 strains of Yersinia belonging to six species were studied independently by computer-assisted statistical analysis of data from enzyme electrophoretic polymorphism and ribosomal DNA (rDNA) restriction fragment length polymorphism. Two corresondence analyses (CA) demonstrated the concordance between the bacterial classification obtained from enzymatic and genomic data. This concordance was reinforced by an algorithm of the correspondence established between the two dendrograms drawn from previous computations. Comparison of CA with similarity analysis (also called “numerical taxonomy”) indicated that the intra- and inter-species differentiation obtained by the two methods are similar. The advantage of CA is that it gives a synthetic geometrical representation of the results (factorial planes), displaying both the main features of the clusters of strains (location and dispersion) and their essential character (i.e.: enzyme electrophoretic variant, rDNA fragment size).

    Notes: A modification of crossed immunoelectrophoresis for the analysis of plasma lipoproteins is described and is called polyacrylamide gel-crossed immunoelectrophoresis. The incorporation of albumin in the first-dimensional gel facilitates the transfer of the larger lipoproteins containing apolipoprotein B from the first-dimensional gel to the second dimension. Furthermore, under this condition the quantitation of total apolipoprotein B by polyacrylamide gel-crossed immunoelectrophoresis is in good agreement with the results obtained by rocket immunoelectrophoresis or nephelometry. The correlation between polyacrylamide gel-crossed immunoelectrophoresis and rocket immunoelectrophoresis is good for total apolipoprotein B (p 〉 0.001) and apolipoprotein A-I (p 〉 0.001). Polyacrylamide gel-crossed immunoelectrophoresis also offers interesting aspects to study the plasma lipoprotein classes and subclasses in different cases: normal plasma, current and complex dyslipoproteinemias in the presence or absence of lipoprotein small a. In a case of dyslipoproteinemia of Fredrickson′s Type V polyacrylamide gel-crossed immunoelectrophoresis demonstrates the presence of a small-sized Lp (a) major peak in the low density lipoprotein (LDL) zone and of a large-sized Lp (a) minor peak in the very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) zone.

    Notes: A novel version of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) termed degenerate oligonucleotide-primed PCR (DOP-PCR) was used to fingerprint the bacterial genome of Yersinia enterocolitica species. Eight well-characterized reference strains of Y. enterocolitica (ribotype, serotype, biotype and zymotype) were examined. Optimal experimental conditions for reproducibility, sensitivity and specificity were obtained using a single DOP-primer. All the strains gave distinct DOP-PCR profiles composed of 12 to 19 fragments with sizes from 200 to 1.500 bp. Thus, the DOP-PCR, which has so far been used to fingerprint human, mouse, fruitfly and plant DNA, is also well-suited to bacterial DNA.
