    Notes: Kinesin from porcine brain was prepared by a procedure based on the strong binding of the protein to microtubules in the presence of sodium fluoride and ATP. The protocol reduces the requirement for taxol and AMP-PNP. The kinesin is active in terms of its ability to move microtubules on glass slides and its ATPase. The ATPase of this kinesin is about 8 nmol/min/mg; it is activated to 19 nmol/min/mg in the presence of microtubules. The relationship between gliding velocity and ATP concentration follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Using the motility assay, the maximal velocity is 0.78 μm/sec, and the Km values is 150 μM for ATP. For GTP the corresponding values are 0.38 μm/sec and 1.7 mM. ADP is a competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.29 mM).Crude preparations of kinesin do not support motility on glass slides, whereas gel-filtered kinesin does. A search for potential inhibitory factors showed that one of them is MAP2; however, its inhibitory effect becomes visible only in certain conditions. MAP2 bound to microtubules does not inhibit kinesin-induced motility. However, when MAP2 and kinesin are preadsorbed to the glass surface independently of microtubules, MAP2 prevents the interaction of kinesin with microtubules, as if it formed a “lawn” that acted as a spacer and thus repelled the MAP-free microtubules or crosslinked the MAP-containing ones. The repelling effect of MAP2 domains (projection or assembly fragments obtained by chymotryptic cleavage) added separately is less pronounced and be overcome by kinesin. These results reinforce the view of MAP2 as a spacer molecule.

    Notes: We have studied the ultrastructural distribution of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs), small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), and ribosomal proteins during mouse spermatogenesis and spermiogenesis by means of specific antibodies and immunocytochemistry.All the above components were detectable from primary spermatocytes until the spermatid elongation phase, when the RNA synthetic activity is known to cease. Ribosomal protein (P1/P2 and L7) labeling disappeared as early as during the acrosome phase, and nucleoli were no longer labeled even during the cap phase. The nucleoplasmic structures labeled with the different anti-nucleoplasmic RNP immunoprobes corresponded, until the acrosome phase, to those previously observed as targets of the same antibodies in the nucleoplasm of somatic cell nuclei. Clusters of interchromatin granules of spermatocyte and early spermatid nuclei exhibit some labeling for hnRNP when compared with nuclei of Sertoli cells or previously analyzed liver or tissue culture cells, where these structural constituents usually remain weakly labeled or unlabeled.In spermatids in step 10, another type of nuclear granule, resembling perichromatin granules, but occurring in aggregates, can be observed. These structural constituents were labeled with antibodies recognizing nucleoplasmic snRNP antigens and therefore suggesting a non-nucleolar origin of these granules.Finally, we have observed nucleoplasmic areas of fibrogranular material, occurring only in primary spermatocytes. These components were labeled with anti-ribosomal protein antibodies but did not contain either hnRNPs or snRNPs. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The late embryonic and postembryonic genesis of the bursa cloacae (Fabricii) of struthioniforms and other birds is described and discussed. The bursa of ostrich and emu is a wall organ of the caudal cloacal chamber. The bursa of rhea is, like the bursa of Gallus, a cranial appendix of the proctodeum. Lobuli bursales of struthioniforms are composed of a peripheral pars lymphoepithelialis (PLE) and a central pars lymphoreticularis (PLR). By contrast, lobuli bursales of Gallus are composed of a peripheral PLR and a central PLE. The fine structure of the bursa of struthioniforms is described. Other than in Gallus, the apical cell association of the PLE of struthioniforms shows secretory granules. This study thus far does not answer in detail the question of how the imprinting mechanism of the B-lymphocytes operates. It is assumed that they are imprinted in the PLE. Postcapillary venules in the PLR are responsible for the transport of B-lymphocytes. Hormonal bursectomies have been made to get information about the involution of the bursa of struthioniforms. In these species, involution means a gradual metaplasia while in Gallus it means a complete degeneration of the bursa.

    Notes: All tRNA sequences so far known can be folded into a cloverleaf structure. Physical data and chemical reactions allow us to draw conclusions on secondary (cloverleaf) and tertiary structure. N-oxidation of adenosine to adenosine-1-N-oxide can be done with monoperphthalic acid in non-base-paired regions of polynucleotides and can be followed easily by changes in absorption of ultraviolet light. Thus this method can be used to determine the structure of tRNA's. A fingerprint of the N-oxidation product of tRNAyeastPhe reveals that all adenosine residues are protected except the 3′-terminal adenosine and the three adenosine residues in or adjacent to the anticodon. On this basis a conformation of tRNAyeastPhe is proposed. Similar tertiary structures can be constructed for the other tRNA's. In order to connect tertiary structure of a tRNA and recognition by its aminoacylating enzyme, the rate of aminoacylation, as a function of temperature, was measured. Neither changes in the anticodon nor specific changes at the 3′-terminal adenosine abolish aminoacylation. Single crystals of tRNAyeastPhe were obtained from aqueous solutions upon addition of various organic solvents.

    Notes: A method for clonal analysis has been developed which allows the characterization of the number and type of progeny cells produced by each single cell arising during clonal evolution. The method is based on a symmetry of self-renewal exhibited by sister cells of the human promyelocytic leukemia cell line -HL60-. This permits the use of one of the sister cells to measure the potential for self renewal of the other.Using a system of sequential daughter cell transfers in semisolid medium, we have analysed self-renewal and differentiation in individual clones exposed to all-trans retinoic acid or dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). We find that in clones exposed to chemical inducers of differentiation commitment occurs as an all-or-none event which is preceded by coordinated but reversible losses of self-renewal potential.It is concluded that the differentiation pathway of HL60 cells has two distinct portions. These are, first, a predeterministic portion, reflected by coordinated but reversible losses of self-renewal potential, and second, a deterministic portion, reflected by irreversible phenotypic differentiation.

    Notes: Brewer's yeast preparations influence glucose metabolism in vivo and in isolated tissues. We have studied the effect of a brewer's yeast extract on glucose metabolism and grwoth of rat hepatoma and human embryonic cells. Growth of the rat hepatoma cells was very much stimulated by the extract in a concentration-dependent manner. Glucose uptake was, on the other hand, appreciably inhibited, and lactate uptake completely abolished by the extract. Insulin stimulated cell growth and inhibited lactate uptake but did not affect the glucose level. Insulin and the extract had additive effects on growth and lactate uptake of the hepatoma cells. The inhibition by the brewer's yeast extract of glucose uptake was, however, antagonized by insulin. Niacin or Cr3+, which are suggested to be components of a “glucose tolerance factor” of brewer's yeast, did not affect growth or glucose and lactate uptake. The glucose uptake of the human embryonic cells was strongly inhibited by the brewer's yeast extract. Cell growth and lactate production were not influenced by the extract or by insulin; however, when both insulin and extract were present simultaneously, a slight stimulation of growth and inhibition of lactate production was observed. The results indicate that brewer's yeast can have appreciable direct effects on cells and that not all of these effects are “insulin-like”.

    Notes: We studied the phenotypic features of some typical human mesenchymal cells, including decidual stromal cells and adult and fetal fibroblasts under different cell culture conditions by using antibodies to intermediate filament proteins and desmoplakins. In cell culture, the decidual stromal cells rapidly acquired typical fibroblastoid appearance with abundant arrays of vimentin filaments while the cytokeratin-positive epithelial cells, occasionally found in typical epithelioid colonies, lacked vimentin positivity and showed desmoplakin positivity. Within a few days, many of the stromal cells started to present cytokeratin positivity when cultured either in Condimed® or in Chang® medium. The cytokeratin positivity was first detected in small, scattered cytoplasmic dotted fibrils or in perinuclear dotlike aggregates with fibrillar projections. Later, denser cytokeratin-positive fibrillar arrays could also be seen in stromal cells, which lacked desmoplakin positivity as judged by two monoclonal antibodies. Decidual stromal cells were also cloned and in five out of ten clones some of the cells acquired a similar cytokeratin positivity when transferred into Chang® or Condimed® medium. Immunoblotting results indicated that cytokeratins 8, 18, and 19 can be found in these cultures. Similar cytokeratin positivity could also be seen in the same culture conditions in cultured fetal fibroblasts from skin, chorionic villi, and lung but not in young or adult skin fibroblast cultures. The present results suggest that decidual stromal cells as well as some embryonal mesenchymal cells can acquire epithelial differentiation in vitro as judged by the emergence of cytokeratin proteins. This ability appears to be lost in the corresponding adult cell. The results furthermore suggest that cytokeratin fibrils can be organized in the cytoplasm without an apparent organization center and that neither the appearance of desmoplakins nor the formation of cell-to-cell contacts are required for cytokeratin filament assembly.

    Notes: Pathways of glutamine metabolism in resting and proliferating rat thymocytes were evaluated by in vitro incubations of freshly prepared or 60-h cultured cells for 1-2 h with [U14C]glutamine. Complete recovery of glutamine carbons utilized in products allowed quantification of the pathways of glutamine metabolism under the experimental conditions. Partial oxidation of glutamine via 2-oxoglutarate in a truncated citric acid cycle to CO2 and oxaloacetate, which then was converted to aspartate, accounted for 76 and 69%, respectively, of the glutamine metabolized beyond the stage of glutamate by resting and proliferating thymocytes. Complete oxidation to CO2 in the citric acid cycle via 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase and isocitrate dehydrogenase accounted for 25 and 7%, respectively. In proliferating cells a substantial amount of glutamine carbons was also recovered in pyruvate, alanine, and especially lactate. The main route of glutamine and glutamate entrance into the citric acid cycle via 2-oxoglutarate in both cells is transamination by aspartate aminotransferase rather than oxidative deamination by glutamate dehydrogenase. In the presence of glucose as second substrate, glutamine utilization and aspartate formation markedly decreased, but complete oxidation of glutamine carbons to CO2 increased to 37 and 23%, respectively, in resting and proliferating cells. The dipeptide, glycyl-L-glutamine, which is more stable than free glutamine, can substitute for glutamine in thymocyte cultures at higher concentrations.
