    Notes: An approximate analytic expression for the translational friction coefficient of a toroid modeled as a continuous shell of frictional elements is derived using the Kirkwood approximation. The accuracy of this expression was determined by comparing the friction coefficients predicted by it to those predicted by extrapolated shell-model calculations using the modified Oseen tensor. To show that these calculations do indeed yield the correct friction coefficients, actual translational friction coefficients were determined by observing settling rates of macroscopic model rings or toroids in a high-viscosity silicone fluid. Our conclusion is that the approximate expression yields friction coefficients that are about 1.5-3% low for finite rings. For thin rings, a comparison is also made with the exact result of Yamakawa and Yamaki [J. Chem. Phys. 57, 1572 (1972); 58, 2049 (1973)] for the translational friction of plane polygonal rings. This comparison shows that the approximate expression yields results which are low by 2-3% unless the rings are extremely thin, in which case the error is larger. In the limit of an infinitely thin ring the approximate expression reduces to the Kirkwood result [J. Polym. Sci. 12, 1 (1954)], which is low by 8.3%. We discuss briefly how this work may be useful in determining the structure of DNA compacted by various solvent-electrolyte systems and polyamines.

    Notes: The variable-temperature proton nmr spectra of the oligoribonucleotides in the series CpApX and the series ApGpX, X = A, G, C, U, together with the parent dimers CpA and ApG have been measured. A complete analysis of all the nonexchangeable base proton resonances and ribose H-1′ proton resonances was made. The presence of trends in the shielding abilities of the various bases at both the nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor positions were identified. The observed shieldings could be used to predict the chemical shifts of protons in related systems. Based on the empirical results from ribodinucleoside monophosphates, the temperature-dependent behavior of the J1′2′ coupling constants of the triribonucleotides suggested that the compounds in the CpApX series stacked from the 5′-end to the 3′-end, while those in the ApGpX series stacked from the 3′-end to the 5′-end.

    Notes: The complete assignment of resonances in the proton nmr spectrum of the 1-34 amino acid fragment of human parathyroid hormone [hPTH(1-34)], determined using a combination of one- and two-dimensional nmr techniques at 500 MHz, is described. In particular, homonuclear Hartmann-Hahn experiments, recorded in H2O and D2O, are used to resolve ambiguities in the connectivities between the highly overlapped resonances in the aliphatic region of the spectrum. One-dimensional multiple quantum filtering experiments are used to identify serine and phenylalanine spin systems. Analyses of the through-bond and through-space connectivities in the αH-NH fingerprint regions of the correlated spectroscopy (COSY) and nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) spectra lead to the assignment of resonances to specific amino acid residues in the polypeptide. Examination of the observed NOE cross peaks indicates that hPTH(1-34) has no detectable secondary structural elements in aqueous solution.

    Notes: The formation of a topologically closed DNA loop is important in many biological processes, including the regulation of transcription, recombination, and replication. Modeling DNA as an isotropic elastic rod, we use finite element analysis to show that the dependence of the twist (ΔTw) and the writhe (Wr) upon the linking number deficit (ΔLk) is strongly influenced by intrinsic bends. We determine how the geometry of a DNA loop changes as a function of the number of uniformly spaced coplanar 20° bends, oriented so as to open toward the center of the loop. We also calculate the geometry of DNA rods that are smoothly bent to the same extent. The response of both ΔTw and Wr of a bent DNA to changes in ΔLk falls into one of three categories, depending upon the number of bends. For a single bend of 20°, Wr increases monotonically with ΔLk and the change in ΔTw with distance is constant along the entire DNA axis. For two to ten 20° bends, Wr passes first through a local maximum, then through a local minimum, and finally increases monotonically as ΔLk increases. For eleven to eighteen 20° bends, Wr again varies monotonically with ΔLk. For all numbers of bends greater than two, the ΔTw per unit length depends upon the distribution of intrinsic bends, being constant between any two adjoining bends but varying with their position relative to the cut location. Accompanying these ΔLk-associated changes in Wr and ΔTw per unit length are characteristic changes in geometry that are specific for each category. The results of these calculations raise the possibility that intrinsic bends can serve as a control factor in the biological functions associated with loop formation in DNA. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Im geschwindigkeitsbestimmenden Schritt der Autoxydation in Methanol/Methylat reagiert Sauerstoff mit dem Monoanion von Hydrazobenzol. In stark basischem Dimethylsulfoxid/tert.-Butylalkohol kann ein Ablauf über das Dianion und Radikalanion des Hydrazobenzols erzwungen werden; dabei entsteht Kaliumhyperoxid (KO2). Im Licht dieser Ergebnisse werden die Autoxydation von Anilin und Benzhydrol diskutiert.

    Notes: As a direct test of the Cane-Westley hypothesis concerning the mode of assembly of ether rings in the polyether class of ionophore antibiotics, we describe experiments culminating in the synthesis of three putative intermediates on the monensin biosynthetic pathway and incorporation experiments with these materials and the monensin-producing organism Streptomyces cinnamonensis. The putative intermediates synthesised include the trienes [21-3H]-7 and [13-3H]-10, and the diene [9-3H]-11. The results of the incorporation experiments conducted with whole cell cultures suggest that [13-3H]-10 and [21-3H]-7 are unable to cross the intact cell membrane of S. cinnamonensis, whereas diene [9-3H]-11 can gain entry to the cellular interior, but is then degraded efficiently, most likely by a pathway closely related to β-oxidation, without being specifically incorporated into the antibiotic.

    Notes: Protein fouling can significantly alter both the flux and retention characteristics of ultrafiltration membranes. There has, however, been considerable controversy over the nature of this fouling layer. In this study, hydraulic permeability and dextran sieving data were obtained both before and after albumin adsorption and/or filtration using polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranes. The dextran molecular weight distributions were analyzed by gel permeation chromatography to evaluate the sieving characteristics over a broad range of solute size. Protein fouling caused a significant reduction in the dextran sieving coefficients, with very different effects seen for the diffusive and convective contributions to dextran transport. The changes in dextran sieving coefficients and diffusive permeabilities were analyzed using a two-layer membrane model in which a distinct protein layer is assumed to form on the upstream surface of the membrane. The data suggest that the protein layer formed during filtration was more tightly packed than that formed by simple static adsorption. Hydrodynamic calculations indicated that the pore size of the protein layer remained relatively constant throughout the adsorption or filtration, but the thickness of this layer increased with increasing exposure time. These results provide important insights into the nature of protein fouling during ultrafiltration and its effects on membrane transport. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The faint emission of light by various classes and types of polymers when heated in the presence of oxygen, oxyluminescence, was studied by means of a photomultiplier tube and sensitive microammeter. Among the polymers with a carbon-carbon backbone, the polymers having the greater number of tertiary carbon atoms generally showed greater intensities of luminosity. Polystyrene was a notable exception to this generalization. The shape of the luminosity versus time curves varied with the type of polymer. It was also found that the emission of light did not stop instantly when the oxygen atmosphere was replaced by an inert gas, but rather followed an exponential type of decay. The rate of decay appeared to be different with different types of polymers. The intensities of luminescence and the times required to reach maximum or steady state luminescence were compared with oxygen uptake data for various polymers. In general there was a qualitative, but not necessarily quantitative correlation between the luminous intensities and polymer stabilities in the presence of oxygen.
