    Notes: Abstract Resistance to the morpholine-fungicide fenpropimorph was studied in Aspergillus niger and A. nidulans. Mass selection of conidia of A. nidulans on agar amended with the fungicide at different concentrations did not yield of resistant mutants, even after UV-treatment of the conidia. In contrast, similar experiments with A. niger generated many fenpropimorph-resistant mutants. The mutants displayed cross-resistance to fenpropidin and generally showed wild-type sensitivity to the unrelated toxicants fenarimol and cycloheximide. Genetic analysis of fenpropimorph resistance in A. niger was carried out by means of the parasexual cycle. In the mutants tested, two genes located on linkage group II were involved in fenpropimorph resistance. Dominance tests showed that resistance to fenpropimorph in A. niger is recessive.

    Notes: A field trial was conducted in the south of the Netherlands over a period of 3 years (1992–94) in order to test the effect of fenpropimorph-containing fungicides on the sensitivity of Erysiphe graminis f.sp. tritici to fenpropimorph. In general, use of split applications resulted in a better protection against wheat powdery mildew than use of normal applications. This is ascribed to a better timing of the split applications. The sensitivity to fenpropimorph of the mildew population in plots treated with normal applications of both fungicides did not change during the growing seasons of the years investigated. In contrast, the sensitivity of the mildew population from plots treated with split applications of Corbel became significantly lower. A significantly lower sensitivity was also found in the mildew population from plots treated with split applications of Tilt Top in 1993 and 1994. These results indicate that split applications can increase the rate at which E. graminis f.sp. tritici can become less sensitive to fenpropimorph. Because maintenance of sensitivity of the pathogen population is valued highly, the split application strategy of fenpropimorph-containing fungicides is not recommended for wheat powdery mildew control.

    Notes: Streptomyces coelicolor has an unusually large arsenal of glutamine synthetase (GS) enzymes: a prokaryotic GSI-β-subtype enzyme (encoded by glnA ), three annotated glnA -like genes of the GSI-α-subtype and a eukaryote-like glutamine synthetase II (encoded by glnII ). Under all tested conditions, GSI was found to represent the dominant glutamine synthetase activity. A significant heat-labile GSII activity, which is very low to undetectable in liquid-grown cultures, was only detected in morphologically differentiating S. coelicolor cultures. Analysis of glnA and glnII transcription by S1 nuclease mapping and egfp fusions revealed that, on nitrogen-limiting solid medium, glnII but not glnA expression is upregulated. An OmpR-like regulator protein, GlnR, has previously been implicated in transcriptional control of glnA expression. Gel retardation analysis revealed that GlnR is a DNA-binding protein, which interacts with the glnA promoter. It is not autoregulatory and does not bind to the upstream regions of the glnA -like genes of the α-subfamily, nor to the glnII promoter in vitro . A second GlnR target was identified upstream of the amtB gene, encoding a putative ammonium transporter. amtB forms an operon with glnK (encoding a PII protein) and glnD (encoding a putative PII nucleotidylyltransferase) shown by S1 nuclease protection analysis and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). An amtB and glnA promoter alignment revealed a putative GlnR operator structure. Downstream of glnII , a gene encoding for another OmpR-like regulator, GlnRII, was identified, with strong similarity to GlnR. Gel shifts with GlnRII showed that the promoters recognized by GlnR are also targets of GlnRII. However, GlnRII also interacted with the glnII upstream region. Only inactivation of glnR resulted in a glutamine auxotrophic phenotype, whereas the glnRII mutant can grow on minimal medium without glutamine.

    Notes: Glutamine synthetase I (GSI) enzyme activity in Streptomyces coelicolor is controlled post-translationally by the adenylyltransferase (GlnE) as in enteric bacteria. Although other homologues of the Escherichia coli Ntr system (glnK, coding for a PII family protein; and glnD, coding for an uridylyltransferase) are found in the S. coelicolor genome, the regulation of the GSI activity was found to be different. The functions of glnK and glnD were analysed by specific mutants. Surprisingly, biochemical assay and two-dimensional PAGE analysis showed that modification of GSI by GlnE occurs normally in all mutant strains, and neither GlnK nor GlnD are required for the regulation of GlnE in response to nitrogen stimuli. Analysis of the post-translational regulation of GlnK in vivo by two-dimensional PAGE and mass spectrometry indicated that it is subject to both a reversible and a non-reversible modification in a direct response to nitrogen availability. The irreversible modification was identified as removal of the first three N-terminal amino acid residues of the protein, and the reversible modification as adenylylation of the conserved tyro-sine 51 residue that is known to be uridylylated in E. coli. The glnD insertion mutant expressing only the N-terminal half of GlnD was capable of adenylylating GlnK, but was unable to perform the reverse deadenylylation reaction in response to excess ammonium. The glnD null mutant completely lacked the ability to adenylylate GlnK. This work provides the first example of a PII protein that is modified by adenylylation, and demonstrates that this reaction is performed by a homologue of GlnD, previously described only as a uridylyltransferase enzyme.

    Notes: Abstract. The glutamine synthetase II (GSII, encoded by glnII) activity detectable in crude extracts from Streptomyces coelicolor is low compared to the activity of glutamine synthetase I (GSI, encoded by glnA) and to that of GSII from S. viridochromogenes. We have identified and sequenced a 3.9-kb BglII-BamHI fragment carrying the glutamine synthetase II gene (glnII) from S. coelicolor. Besides glnII, this region contains four ORFs (orf1–orf4). While homologues of orf1 and orf2 were also found in the glnII region of the S. viridochromogenes chromosome, this was not the case for orf3 and orf4, which encode a putative hydrolase and a transcriptional regulator (Ptr) of the MarR family, respectively. High-resolution S1 nuclease mapping showed that the S. coelicolor glnII gene is expressed from two overlapping promoters. The first comprises a vegetative promoter sequence and the second contains sequence elements that are recognized by Eσ31. Similar promoter structures were found upstream of the S. viridochromogenes glnII gene. The involvement of ptr in glnII regulation was studied by gel retardation assays. Recombinant Ptr interacted with the upstream region of ptr, but not with the promoter region of glnII. A ptr gene replacement mutant (S. coelicolor IP) was also constructed. RT-PCR analysis of RNA from wild-type S. coelicolor and the IP mutant demonstrated that expression of orf3 depends on Ptr. Thus, the difference in gene organization between S. coelicolor and S. viridochromogenes is not responsible for the difference in GSII activity.

    Notes: Developing trends in disc brake technology for rail applicationThe substitution of conventional ferrous materials by light-alloy solutions gives the opportunity for significant reduction of the rotating masses in the bogie and by that a decrease of energy consumption. The potential of conventional Al-cast-alloys is not suitable to solve this. Castable MMC-materials are a high-promising alternative. Under economic pressure MMC-solutions need not to be only superior but also cost effective. And due to the low ductility of those particulate reinforced materials there is a need for new concepts.Locally optimised disks consist of a ductile carrier [body] with wear resistant rubbing surfaces. This led to several prototype disk brakes manufactured by different casting processes.This paper gives an overview about the state-of the-art and newly developed manufacturing routes and materials, metallic and non- metallic, for rail disk brake application.

Here, the authors create such contacts in graphene by etching constrictions and use them to identify ballistic transport and quantized conductance of size-confined Dirac fermions.
