    Notes: Summary There are sequences homologous to 5S ribosomal RNA in the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeats of the plant-parasitic nematodeMeloidogyne arenaria. This is surprising, because in all other higher eukaryotes studied to date, the genes for 5S RNA are unlinked to and distinct from a tandem rDNA repeat containing the genes for 18S, 5.8S, and 28S ribosomal RNA. Previously, only prokaryotes and certain “lower eukaryotes” (protozoa and fungi) had been found to have both the larger rRNAs and 5S rRNA represented within a single DNA repeat. This has raised questions on the organization of these repeats in the earliest cell (progenote), and on subsequent evolutionary relationships between pro- and eukaryotes. Evidence is presented for rearrangements and deletions withinMeloidogyne rDNA. The unusual life cycles (different levels of ploidy, reproduction by meiotic and mitotic parthenogenesis) of members of this genus might allow rapid fixation of any variants with introduced 5S RNA sequences. The 5S RNA sequences inMeloidogyne rDNA may not be expressed, but their presence raises important questions as to the evolutionary origins and stability of repeat gene families.

    Notes: Summary The arrangement of core histone genes and their transcriptional polarity has been determined for three species of sea stars (Pisaster ochraceus, P. brevispinus, andDermasterias imbricata) representing two orders which diverged over 500 million years ago. Each species has approximately 500 core histone cluster repeats per haploid genome. The close phylogenetic relationship between thePisaster species is evident from the correspondence of restriction sites in the repeat element, identical arrangement of core histones, and high degree of sequence homology in both the coding and spacer regions of the H3 gene. TheDermasterias repeat has the same gene order and transcriptional polarity of core histones, but its restriction map is significantly different. Moreover, theDermasterias H3 gene has the same amino acid sequence, but in comparison toPisaster nucleotide sequences, shows a high level of silent substitutions. Analyses of the nucleotide sequence of the 5′ and 3′ regions surrounding the H3 gene from each species demonstrate the presence of appropriately spaced consensus and processing signal segments. The 3′ spacer segment of theDermasterias H4 gene contains an unusual, threefold tandemly repeated, 21-nucleotide, AT-rich sequence. No similar sequence is seen in theP. brevispinus H4 3′ region, but these two species show a striking regularity of distribution of five different homologous oligomers in the 3′ spacer.

    Notes: Summary The organization and maternal expression of histone genes differ greatly between the two echinoderm classes represented by the sea stars and sea urchins. We have isolated and characterized a 5.3-kb genomic DNA fragment encoding core histone genes in the sea starPisaster ochraceus. The majority of histone genes are organized as tandem repeats of the 5.3-kb fragment, which is present in as many as 700 copies per haploid genome. The identity, precise location, and transcriptional polarity of individual core histone genes within the repeat were determined by DNA sequence analyses. The gene order in the sea star (H2B, H2A, H4, H3) is different from that in sea urchins (H2B, H3, H2A, H4). What is remarkable is the low level of maternal histone mRNA inP. ochraceus eggs relative to that in sea urchins. This observation supports a recent suggestion that major changes in mode of gene expression, rather than in gene organization or copy number, can be correlated with major events in echinoderm evolution.

    Notes: Positive ion fast atom bombardment mass spectra of maltooligosaccharides reductively aminated with 2-aminopyridine (Gn-AP) contain abundant [M + H]+ ions. Determination of G2-AP and G3-AP produced from G5-AP by the action of α-amylases, based on the abundance of their [M + H]+ ions relative to that of cellobiose reductively aminated with 2-amino-6-methylpyridine as the internal standard, allowed rapid and reproducible assay of these enzymes. It was advantageous for clinical investigation that the proportion of pancreatic and salivary α-amylase activities could be determined.

    Notes: The proton magnetic resonance in the vitrain of Yūbari caking coal and its residue of pyridine extraction has been studied over the range 90 to 423°K. At lower temperature the absorption line consists of a broad component. At higher temperature this component begins to decrease rapidly in the line width and resolves into two components. This rapid narrowing of the absorption line width suggests a glass transition attributed to the molecular motion in coal. The variation of the second moment of the absorption line with temperature reflects the line width variation. From these results some information on the molecular motion and arrangement in coal have been obtained.

Säurekatalysierte Methanolyse von 1 ergab die Methylester von vier Fettsäuren [Palmitat (Hauptbestandteil), Stearat, Margarat und ein Isomeres von Margarat] und Cholesterin. Auf Grund synthetischer und spektroskopischer Untersuchungen wurden die Strukturen von 5 und 8 als 5,8α-Epidioxy-5α-cholest-6-en-3β-ol und 5,8α-Epidioxy-5α-cholesta-6,9(11)-dien-3β-ol festgestellt.
    Notes: From the albumen glands of the sea hare Aplysia juliana, collected in Kumamoto Prefecture, a mixture of cholesteryl esters (1) and two 5,8α-epidioxysterols 5 and 8 have been isolated. Acid-catalyzed methanolysis of 1 afforded four methyl esters of fatty acids [palmitate (major component), stearate, margarate, and an isomer of margarate] and cholesterol. 5 and 8 were identified by spectroscopic and synthetical evidence to be 5,8α-epidioxy-5α-cholest-6-en-3β-ol and 5,8α-epidioxy-5α-cholesta-6,9(11)-dien-3β-ol, respectively.

    Description / Table of Contents: Biologisch aktive Glycoside aus Asteroidea, XV.  -  Asymmetrische Synthese von Phytosphingosin und Phytosphingosinanhydrobase: Ermittlung der absoluten StereochemieDie erste asymmetrische Synthese eines Phytosphingosins, (2S,3S,4R)-2-Amino-1,3,4-hexadecantriol (2), wurde mit Hilfe von kinetischer Racemattrennung und asymmetrischer Epoxidation durchgeführt. Die absolute Stereochemie von Phytosphingosin aus Seesternen (Acanthaster planci und Asterina pectinifera) stimmt mit der von 2 überein. Die Phytosphingosinanhydrobase 19 wurde ebenfalls durch asymmetrische Synthese dargestellt und die Struktur mit Hilfe von 2D-COSY-, NOESY- und Differenz-NOE-Experimenten ermittelt.
    Notes: The first asymmetric synthesis of a phytosphingosine, (2S,3S,4R)-2-amino-1,3,4-hexadecanetriol (2), was accomplished by kinetic resolution and asymmetric epoxidation. The absolute stereochemistry of the phytosphingosine from starfishes (Acanthaster planci and Asterina pectinifera) was established to be the same as for 2. The phytosphingosine anhydro base 19 was also asymmetrically synthesized, and the structure was determined on the basis of NMR analyses involving 2D-COSY, NOESY, and difference NOE experiments.

    Notes: Previously proposed 13C NMR spectral assignments of cycloartenol (9,19-cyclolanost-24-en-3β-ol) (1) and cycloartanol (9,19-cyclolanostan-3β-3-ol) (2) were re-examined by means of 13C-enrichment experiments and LIS measurement of 13C chemical shifts. Revised signal assignments are proposed for C-7, C-11, C-16, C-18, C-21 and C-28 of 1 and C-7, C-11, C-12, C-15 and C-16 of 2. Experimental proof for the skeleton formation mechanism of 1 based on 13C NMR spectral findings is presented.

    Notes: Comparison of the 1H and 13C chemical shift data of bryonolic acid (D : C-friedoolean-8-en-3β-ol-29-oic acid) and its derivatives (13 species) revealed that the conformational features of these compounds in CDCl3 solution depend on whether the functional groups at C-29 are trigonal, such as COOCH3, or tetrahedral, such as CH2OH. In order to study the conformational features of these two groups of compounds, vicinal coupling constants between the protons on the E rings of the methyl ester of D : C-friedoolean-8-en-29-oic acid, D : C-friedoolean-8-en-29-oic and its acetate were measured. Comparison of the results with the steric geometries to be expected from the molecular mechanics calculation for the E-ring moieties of these derivatives in the S form (D-E rings: boat-boat form) and the F form (D-E rings: chair-chair form) led to the conclusion that the compounds having a trigonal functional group at C-29 mainly adopt the S form, and those having a tetrahedral functional group at C-29 are present as mixtures of the S and F form in equilibrium in the solutions.
