    Notes: Abstract A novel chemotype (C type) having a lemon-like odor segregated out in the F2 progeny of a cross between PK and PL chemotypes ofPerilla frutescens. Chemical analysis of C-type plants revealed that geranial was the major component of essential oils in the leaves. Genetic analysis suggested that geranial is accumulated by individuals homozygous for two pairs of recessive, polymeric genes,fr 1 andfr 2, which are incapable of converting geranial into perillene.

    Notes: The conformations of synthetic human growth hormone-releasing factor fragment (1-29) in the presence and the absence of l, 2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylglycerol liposome as well as in aqueous 2, 2, 2-trifluoroethanol solution were investigated by CD spectroscopy. The secondary structure of the peptide in each solution was analyzed by two methods. Both results show that the peptide has an unordered structure in the aqueous solution. whereas it folds into helical structure in the aqueous alcohol and in the phospholipid solution. In addition, although the peptide exists as almost complete helix in the 50 vol % aqueous alcohol (80-90% helicity), it does not reach full helicity even in the solution containing excess amount of phospholipid liposome (maximum 65-70% helicity). The conformational difference is explained by the characteristic amphipathy of the peptide, i.e., the necessity to twist the separated amphipathic helical parts in the interaction with the phospholipid membrane probably makes the helicity of the peptide decrease.

    Notes: The formation of α-helical assembly by complexing biologically active peptides with de novo designed protein is described. The de novo designed protein described here is a cystinelinked 4-helix bundle protein constructed with 80 amino acid residues and forms a hydrophobic core region surrounded by 4 helices in an aqueous solution. The biologically active peptides, such as melittin and human growth hormone releasing factor, contain the sequences that are able to form amphiphilic helices. These peptides alone do not form the α-helix structure in a diluted solution with low ion strength. But on mixing with the designed helix bundle protein, the peptides are strongly bound to the protein with the induction of α-helical structure in the biologically active peptides. The content of induced α-helix is in accord with that estimated from the amphiphilic sequence. The results mean that a novel architecture composed of α-helices is formed. Fluorescent and temperature-scanning measurement revealed that the α-helical assembly is constructed with hydrophobic interaction. Also, it is shown by means of fluorescence depolarization that the assembly has a compact globular form corresponding to 1 : 1 complex. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: 3-Methylene-5,5′-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidinone (α-MDMP), a cyclic analog of N-substituted methacrylamide, was synthesized and polymerized with α,α′-azobis (isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) in solution. Poly(α-MDMP) is only soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at room temperature. Thermogravimetry of poly(α-MDMP) showed 10% weight loss at 355°C in air and 400°C under nitrogen, respectively. The kinetics of α-MDMP homopolymerization with AIBN was investigated in DMSO. The rate of polymerization (Rp) can be expressed by Rp = k[AIBN]0.49[α-MDMP]1.0 and the overall activation energy has been calculated to be 73.2 kJ/mol. Monomer reactivity ratios in copolymerization of α-MDMP (M2) with methyl methacrylate (M1) are r1 = 0.71 and r2 = 0.71, from which Q and e values of α-MDMP are calculated as 0.75 and -0.43, respectively. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The present article describes the synthesis and emulsion copolymerization of a block-type amphiphilic poly(2-oxazoline) macromonomer possessing a polymerizable vinyl ester group. The macromonomer was synthesized by one-pot two-stage block copolymerization of 2-oxazolines using vinyl iodoacetate as initiator. 2-Methyl- and 2-n-butyl-2-oxazolines were employed for the construction of hydrophilic and hydrophobic segments, respectively. The surface activities evaluated by the surface tension of the macromonomer in water were fairly good. Emulsion copolymerization of vinyl acetate with the macromonomer was carried out. The macromonomer acted as a polymeric surfactant, as well as a comonomer. The resulting copolymer latex particles were spherical and their diameter was in the sub-micron range. The effects of the composition of the macromonomer on the emulsion copolymerization and the resulting latex particles were examined. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Abstract The ovipositional response of a Rutaceae-feeding papilionid butterfly,Papilio protenor, toCitrus host plants was evoked by the synergistic action ofl-(−)-stachydrine,d-(−)-quinic acid, (−)-synephrine, andl-(−)-proline that characterize the chemical compositions of the leaves and epicarp ofCitrus plants (C. natsudaidai andC. unshiu). The stimulatory activity of their mixture was enhanced by the addition of flavanone glycosides, naringin and hesperidin, which coexist in these plants and have previously been demonstrated to serve as oviposition stimulants. However, sugars such as sucrose, glucose, and inositols, which abound in plant tissues, exerted no effect on egg-laying by the females. On the other hand, chlorogenic acid present in the leaves of another host plant,Fagara ailanthoides, was found to act as an excellent synergist. However, there existed significant qualitative dissimilarities between the chemical compositions of the leaves ofC. unshiu andF. ailanthoides. This strongly suggests thatP. protenor is likely to utilize different categories of compounds as chemical cues in recognizing each plant as a host.

    Notes: For the purpose of separating alcohol-water mixtures by the use of the pervaporation technique, new composite membranes composed of polyion complexes (PIC) as a separating layer were developed. The polyion complex structure, consisting of polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polycation, provided excellent permeation rate and selectivity. Among the polycations, ionenes, which have quaternary ammonium groups in the backbone chain, were effective in giving membranes of higher permselectivities. High selectivity of PIC membranes was observed at high ethanol concentration regions in the feed mixture. For the azeotropic mixture of water/ethanol (95 wt % EtOH) at 60°C, the PAA-based PIC membrane had the following separation properties: separation factor ∼ 3,500 and permeation rate ∼ 1.6 kg/m2 h.

    Notes: Initially amorphous and semicrystalline films of poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) with different molecular weights were drawn by two-stage drawing, that is, coextrusion at low temperatures (25-160°C) followed by tensile drawing at high temperatures (200-245°C). Both films could be drawn up to a draw ratio of 8-10 by this method under controlled conditions. The tensile modulus and strength of drawn samples were greatly affected by the draw temperature for the first stage, predrawn morphology, and molecular weight. The remarkable effects of these variables on the tensile properties are closely related to the difference in the resultant amorphous chain orientation of the samples, reflecting the disentanglements and chain slippage during drawing, and the dissipation of chain orientation after processing.

    Notes: A transparent poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogel disc covalently immobilized with Type I collagen, fibronectin, and an adhesive oligopeptide and preseeded with corneal epithelial cells was implanted in rabbit cornea using a technique of lamellar keratoplasty, and the tissue response was studied by light and electron microscopy. Covalent immobilization of type I colagen on the surfaceof hydrogel was found to support growth and adhesion of the corneal epithelium in vitro. the in vivo experiment showed that cell seeding could prevant infection of the hydrogel. However, the implanted disc was rejected from the host cornea by epithelial downgrowth and the exchange between the seeded cells and host corneal epithelia was not observed until 14 days after surgery. The rejection might have occurred because of unsatisfactory fixation of the hydrogel to the host cornea.
