    Notes: A Biofilm Airlift Suspension (BAS) reactor was operated with nitrifying biofilm growth and heterotrophic suspended growth, simultaneously converting ammonium and acetate. Growth of heterotrophs in suspension decreases the diffusion limitation for the nitrifiers, and enlarges the nitrifying capacity of a biofilm reactor. Neither nitrifiers nor heterotrophs suffer from additional oxygen diffusion limitation when the heterotrophs grow in suspension. Control of the location of heterotrophic growth, either in suspension or in biofilms over the nitrifying biofilms, was possible by manipulation of the hydraulic retention time. A time delay for formation and disappearance of the heterotrophic biofilms of 10 to 15 days was observed. Surprisingly, it was found that in the presence of the heterotrophic layers the maximum specific activity on ammonia of the nitrifying biofilms increased. The reason for the increase in activity is unknown. The effect of heterotrophic biofilm formation on oxygen diffusion limitation for the nitrifiers is discussed. Some phenomena compensating the increased mass transfer resistance due to the growth of a heterotrophic layer are also presented. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng 53: 397-405, 1997.

    Purification and cloning of aggrecanase-1: a member of the ADAMTS family of proteins (1999)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1999-06-05
    Description: We purified, cloned, and expressed aggrecanase, a protease that is thought to be responsible for the degradation of cartilage aggrecan in arthritic diseases. Aggrecanase-1 [a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs-4 (ADAMTS-4)] is a member of the ADAMTS protein family that cleaves aggrecan at the glutamic acid-373-alanine-374 bond. The identification of this protease provides a specific target for the development of therapeutics to prevent cartilage degradation in arthritis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tortorella, M D -- Burn, T C -- Pratta, M A -- Abbaszade, I -- Hollis, J M -- Liu, R -- Rosenfeld, S A -- Copeland, R A -- Decicco, C P -- Wynn, R -- Rockwell, A -- Yang, F -- Duke, J L -- Solomon, K -- George, H -- Bruckner, R -- Nagase, H -- Itoh, Y -- Ellis, D M -- Ross, H -- Wiswall, B H -- Murphy, K -- Hillman, M C Jr -- Hollis, G F -- Newton, R C -- Magolda, R L -- Trzaskos, J M -- Arner, E C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Jun 4;284(5420):1664-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Inflammatory Diseases Research, DuPont Pharmaceuticals Company, Wilmington, DE 19880-0400, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10356395" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mutation of a gene encoding a protein with extracellular matrix motifs in Usher syndrome type IIa (1998)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1998-06-20
    Description: Usher syndrome type IIa (OMIM 276901), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by moderate to severe sensorineural hearing loss and progressive retinitis pigmentosa, maps to the long arm of human chromosome 1q41 between markers AFM268ZD1 and AFM144XF2. Three biologically important mutations in Usher syndrome type IIa patients were identified in a gene (USH2A) isolated from this critical region. The USH2A gene encodes a protein with a predicted size of 171.5 kilodaltons that has laminin epidermal growth factor and fibronectin type III motifs; these motifs are most commonly observed in proteins comprising components of the basal lamina and extracellular matrixes and in cell adhesion molecules.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Eudy, J D -- Weston, M D -- Yao, S -- Hoover, D M -- Rehm, H L -- Ma-Edmonds, M -- Yan, D -- Ahmad, I -- Cheng, J J -- Ayuso, C -- Cremers, C -- Davenport, S -- Moller, C -- Talmadge, C B -- Beisel, K W -- Tamayo, M -- Morton, C C -- Swaroop, A -- Kimberling, W J -- Sumegi, J -- 5PO1 DC01813-05/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- DC03402/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- EY07003/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Jun 12;280(5370):1753-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology and Microbiology, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE 68198, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9624053" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mutation of the Alzheimer's disease amyloid gene in hereditary cerebral hemorrhage, Dutch type (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-06-01
    Description: An amyloid protein that precipitates in the cerebral vessel walls of Dutch patients with hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis is similar to the amyloid protein in vessel walls and senile plaques in brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease, Down syndrome, and sporadic cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Cloning and sequencing of the two exons that encode the amyloid protein from two patients with this amyloidosis revealed a cytosine-to-guanine transversion, a mutation that caused a single amino acid substitution (glutamine instead of glutamic acid) at position 22 of the amyloid protein. The mutation may account for the deposition of this amyloid protein in the cerebral vessel walls of these patients, leading to cerebral hemorrhages and premature death.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Levy, E -- Carman, M D -- Fernandez-Madrid, I J -- Power, M D -- Lieberburg, I -- van Duinen, S G -- Bots, G T -- Luyendijk, W -- Frangione, B -- AG 05891/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jun 1;248(4959):1124-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, New York University Medical Center, NY 10016.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2111584" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Polyphenoloxidases immobilized in organic gels: Properties and applications in the detoxification of aromatic compounds (1995)

    Notes: Gelatine gels originate from water in oil microemulsions in which the ternary system consists of isooctane/ sulfosuccinic acid bis [2-ethyl hexyl] ester/water; the solubilization of gelatin in the water pool of these microemulsions transforms them into viscous gels in which it is possible to cosolubilize various reactive molecules. These gels were used to immobilize two phenoloxidases, a laccase from Trametes versicolor and a tyrosinase from mushroom. The best balance between gel retention and catalytic activity was reached at a gelatine concentration of 2.5% (w/v) in the case of tyrosinase, while laccase immobilization was independent of gelatine concentration. Both enzymes kept the same optimum pH as the corresponding soluble controls, while a partial loss of activity was observed when they were immobilized. Immobilized enzymes showed an increased stability when incubated for several days at 4°C with a very low release from the gels in the incubation solutions. The immobilization of tyrosinase and of laccase enhanced stability to thermal inactivation. Furthermore, gel-entrapped tyrosinase was almost completely preserved from proteolysis: more than 80% of the activity was maintained, while only 25% of the soluble control activity was detected after the same proteolytic treatments. A column packed with gel-immobilized tyrosinase was used to demonstrate that enzymes immobilized with this technique may be reused several times in the same reaction without loosing their efficiency. Finally, gel-entrapped tyrosinase and laccase were capable of removing naturally occurring and xeno-biotic aromatic compounds from aqueous suspensions with different degrees of efficiency. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    A method for the control of the dissolved oxygen tension in microbial cultures (1967)

    Notes: A method for the control of dissolved oxygen tension in growing microbial cultures is described. The apparatus consists of a motor-driven air sparge pipe which may be lowered or raised to give a variable point of entry of the air stream into the culture liquid and hence a variable gas dispersion and gas-liquid contact time. Control of the sparge pipe position is by means of a feedback control loop consisting of a dissolved oxygen probe, an on/off controller, and a reversing electric motor which drives the sparge pipe. The difficulty presented by the relatively slow response of the oxygen probe has been overcome by incorporating an adjustable rate of control action.

    Notes: A relatively simple, autoclavable medium was developed that would support the growth of the mouse fibroblast (MFL) cell line in suspension culture. This medium was prepared in three stages with decreasing quantities of serum. As the serum was reduced from 5% to none, the amount of Bacto-Peptone was increased from none to 0.5%. The reduction and finally elimination of serum did not affect proliferation adversely, but actually seemed to produce more rapid growth and higher levels of cell population.

    Notes: The rates of release of 7 enzymes from bakers' yeast have been measured. The disruption process did not cause loss of activity of these enzymes. The various operating pressures, temperatures, and initial yeast concentrations used did not affect the rates of enzyme release relative to protein release. The release of acid phosphatase and invertase was faster than the overall protein release. Alcohol, glucose-6-phosphate, and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenases were released slightly faster or at the same rate as the overall protein and alkaline phosphatase and fumarase were released more slowly. These observations correlate well with the reported locations of these enzymes in the yeast cell.

    Notes: One of the main reasons for immobilizing an enzyme is to enable its reuse, or continuous use, in a reactor. Consequently immobilized enzyme stability is an important factor in enzyme reactor design. The performance of the reactor will decrease if during operation the support material disintegrates into smaller particles that pass out of the reactor system.When β-galactosidase is immobilized by covalent attachment to AE-cellulose, the smaller particles have a higher activity. After subjection of the immobilized enxyme to a shear stress the average particle size decreases and the total enzymic activity increases. A loss of small particles from the reactor, although constituting a small weight percent loss of support, will result in a disproportionately large loss in activity. The relevance of these observations to reactor performance is discussed.
