    Notes: Abstract. This paper presents evidence that firm-level productivity increases when the relative wage rises, or the level of unemployment rises. Both facts are consistent with the efficiency wage model. Moreover, there is support for the idea that an increase in the sector's wage with respect to the previous year also increases productivity. We obtain the empirical evidence through a double-hurdle model. We use this estimation technique because it can be established that the differences in productivity between sectors could be explained by differences in effort. It means that some of the industrial sectors of the Spanish economy may pay wage premia while others do not. We also test this implication through panel data.

    Notes: Abstract Random genomic DNA fragments from Saccharomyces cerevisiae were tested for their ability to activate transcription of a promoterless aminoglycoside phosphotransferase-encoding gene in Streptomyces. About 10% of the insertions led to kanamycin resistance when selected at low concentration (5 μg ml−1). The nucleotide sequences of five insertions that allowed growth at different concentrations of the antibiotic were determined. Three of them contained −10 and −35 consensus sequences for the major class of eubacterial promoters. In two others, a −10 sequence could be identified, but a −35 element was absent at the appropriate distance. All of the five inserts were also transcriptionally active in Escherichia coli and therefore probably belong to the major class of eubacterial promoters. Three of the characterized insertions found to match known yeast sequences did not derive from promoter regions. We conclude that sequences that function as eubacterial promoters occur at random in the yeast genome.

    Notes: Abstract A yeast mutant lacking non-specific α-mannosidase activity was found as a background marker during our search for dap2 mutants (Suárez-Rendueles, P. and Wolf, D.H. (1987) J. Bacteriol. 169, 4041–4048). The mutant (DPS-15) is characterized in detail. The mutation called amd1 segregates 2:2 in meiotic tetrads, indicating a single chromosomal gene mutation which is recessive. Diploids heterozygous for amd1 show gene dosage. Thus, it appears that AMD1 might be the structural gene for α-mannosidase. Results obtained with this mutant show that α-mannosidase is not a vital component of the vegetative cell cycle. The differentiation process of sporulation is not disturbed in homozygous mutant diploids. Mannose turnover does not seem to be altered in mutant cells.

    Notes: The glucose transport system of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was inactivated during sporulation. The glucose uptake capacity of a culture (measured with xylose as substrate) decreased to 50% when about 15% of the population was transformed into asci. At the end of sporulation the residual transport capacity was about 20% of the initial one. No changes in glucose transport were observed in a non-sporulating diploid treated in the same conditions. Reappearance of the transport did not occur during germination if this was inhibited by cycloheximide.

    Notes: Abstract It is shown that cellular parameters of the yeast cultures (e.g. intracellular volume, cellular dry weight, protein content, number of cells, and turbidity) are differently influenced by metabolic changes. Therefore, the cellular parameters change independently of each other. It is hence concluded that whenever quantitation is required, the values of these parameters should be measured independently and not calculated from the turbidity of the cultures or other parameters, as is often done.

    Notes: Abstract The symbiotic plasmid pRHc1J and the helper plasmid pJB3JI were transferred from Rhizobium “hedysari” strain RJ77 to Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GMI9023. Transconjugants harboured recombinant plasmids (R-prime plasmids) consisting of pJB3JI carrying DNA fragments, of different sizes, surrounding the Tn5mob insert in pRHc1J. Two of these R-prime plasmids (pR1 and pR2) carried nod genes and were able to restore the Nod+ phenotype of pSym− derivatives of R. “hedysari”. The R. “hedysari” nod genes harboured by both R-primes were expressed in R. leguminosarum biovar trifolii wild-type but not in a pSym− derivative.

    Notes: Abstract The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae consumes mono- and disaccharides preferentially to any other carbon source. Since sugars do not freely permeate biological membranes, cellular uptake of these compounds requires the action of ‘transporters’. The purpose of this review is to summarize the present knowledge on sugar transport in this organism. Yeast cells show two transporters for monosaccharides, the so-called glucose and galactose transporters that act by a facilitated diffusion mechanism. In the case of glucose transport, which also acts upon d-fructose and d-mannose, two components with high- and low-affinity constants have been identified kinetically. Activity of the high-affinity component is dependent on the presence of active kinases whereas activity of the low-affinity component is independent of the presence of these enzymes. Three genes, SNF3, HXT1 and HXT2, encode three different glucose transporters with a high affinity for the substrates and are repressed by high concentrations of glucose in the medium. Kinetic studies suggest that at least one additional gene exists that encodes a transporter with a low affinity and is expressed constituently. The present view is that there are several additional transporters for glucose that have not yet been identified. Galactose transport has only one natural substrate, d-galactose, and is encoded by the gene GAL2. Expression of this gene is induced by galactose and repressed by glucose. Two transporters for disaccharides have been identified in S. cerevisiae: maltose and α-methylglucoside transporters. These transporters are H+-symports that depend on the electrochemical proton gradient and are independent of the ATP level. The gene that encodes the maltose transporter is clustered with the other two genes required for maltose utilization in a locus that is found repeated at different chromosomal locations. Its expression is induced by maltose and repressed by glucose. The rate of sugar uptake in yeast cells is controlled by changes in affinity of the corresponding transporters as well as by an irreversible inactivation that affects their Vmax. The mechanisms involved in these regulatory processes are unknown at present.

    Notes: Restriction site analysis of PCR products from a conserved region of the cytochrome b gene has been used for the specific identification of sole (Solea solea), European plaice (Pleuronectes platessa) and flounder (Platichthys flesus). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the cytochrome b gene using universal primers produced a 359 bp fragment in all species analyzed. Digestion of the PCR products with Nci I, Sau 3AI and Hinf I endonucleases, followed by agarose gel electrophoresis of the digested PCR products, yielded specific profiles that enabled direct identification of the fish species. This methodology should prove useful for enforcing labeling regulations in the authentication of flatfish species.
