    Notes: Extracts of unfertilized sea urchin eggs contain at least two isoforms of cytoplasmic dynein. One exhibits a weak affinity for microtubules and is primarily soluble. The other isoform, HMr-3, binds to microtubules in an ATP-sensitive manner, but is immunologically distinct from the soluble egg dynein (Porter et al.: Journal of Biological Chemistry 263:6759-6771, 1988). We have now further distinguished these egg dynein isoforms based on differences in NTPase activity. HMr-3 copurifies with NTPase activity, but it hydrolyzes CTP at 10 times the rate of ATP. The soluble egg dynein is similar to flagellar dynein in its nucleotide specificity; its MgCTPase activity is ca. 60% of its MgATPase activity. Non-ionic detergents and salt activate the MgATPase activities of both enzymes relative to their MgCTPase activities, but this effect is more pronounced for the soluble egg dynein than for HMr-3. Sucrose gradient-purified HMr-3 promotes an ATP-sensitive microtubule bundling, as seen with darkfield optics. We have also isolated a 20 S microtubule translocating activity by sucrose gradient fractionation of egg extracts, followed by microtubule affinity and ATP release. This 20 S fraction, which contains the HMr-3 isoform, induces a microtubule gliding activity that is distinct from kinesin. Our observations suggest that soluble dynein resembles axonemal dynein, but that HMr-3 is related to the dynein-like enzymes isolated from a variety of cell types and may represent the cytoplasmic dynein of sea urchin eggs.

    Notes: A polarity test mix consisting of acetophenone, N, N-dimethylaniline, naphthalene, decanoic acid, 2-naphthol, and n-tetracosane was spiked onto sand, and extracted with supercritical carbon dioxide, to evaluate the collection efficiency of various solvents and solvent mixtures. Nine single collection solvent systems and four mixed collection solvent systems were studied. When one-component collection solvents were employed, quantitative (above 90%) recovery of all analytes was not possible. With mixed collection solvents, recoveries of 90% or better with all analytes studied were possible.

    Notes: A nomenclature scheme for exhaustively labeling peptide fragment ions is proposed. The scheme is based on IUPAC nomenclature1-3 and the previously proposed Roepstorff nomenclature scheme4 used to label fragment ions in linear peptides. The descriptor used is specifically defined in order to increase the number of peptide and side chain linkages to which the nomenclature scheme can be applied compared with the Roepstorff scheme. The proposed descriptor can be used unambiguously to assign all possible fragments from linear, cyclized, branched, extended (i.e. β-amino acids) and retro inverso peptides. A significant advantage of the proposed scheme is its simple interface with the currently accepted Roepstorff scheme. This nomenclature scheme is able to label all theoretical fragments generated by the computer program ‘AMASS’. AMASS is proposed as a means of systematically calculating the mass of all possible fragment ions from known precursor structures. The program can help determine whether a peptide fragment was derived from an internal sequence fragment or a combination of side chain and backbone cleavages. The program AMASS and the proposed nomenclature scheme are used to illustrate a procedure for identifying fragment ions in the metastable product ion spectrum of somatostatin-14. We envisage that this procedure will be useful for identifying fragment ions which are characteristic of particular structural arrangements in dicyclic and polycyclic peptides.

    Notes: Chemical weapons use, although prohibited by the 1925 Geneva Protocol, has been reported in several armed conflicts including the Iran/Iraq war. The use of these weapons during this conflict and the concern over possible use of chemical warfare (CW) agents during the Persian Gulf war has heightened international awareness and prompted many nations to pursue with incresed vigour the signature of a new Chemical Weapons Convention. The most recent draft of the Chemical Weapons Convention contains a number of provisions aimed at developing a treaty that will enable nations to ensure compliance by all signatory nations. Compliance monitoring will be required in a number of scenarios, including the verification of alleged use, the storage and destruction of chemical weapons stocks and ensuring that industrial sites are not illegally producing CW agents. It follows from this draft treaty that compliance monitoring will require a high level of sophisticated analytical support to ensure the establishment of an enforceable treaty. The United Nations Conference on Disarmament therefore formed a multi-national Technical Group on Instrumentation to address the analytical challenges confronting signatory nations.

    Notes: The structural investigation of the products arising from 28 days incubation of albumin with high glucose concentration and further enzymatic hydrolysis has been carried out by means of high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS) under plasmaspray conditions. By this approach many different compounds have been detected, and for most of them, possible structures have been proposed on the basis of literature data and molecular weight assignments.

    Notes: The tube diameter in the reptation model is the distance between a given chain segment and its nearest segment in adjacent chains. This dimention is thus related to the cross-sectional area of polymer chains and the nearest approach among chains, without effects of thermal fluctuation and steric repulsion. Prior calculated tube diameters are much larger, about 5 times, than the actual chain cross-sectional areas. This is ascribed to the local freedom required for mutual rearrangement among neighboring chain segments. This tube diameter concept seems to us to infer a relationship to the corresponding entanglement spacing. Indeed, we report here that the critical molecular weight, Mc, for the onset of entanglements is found to be Mc = 28 A/(〈R2〉0/M), where A is the chain cross-sectional area and 〈R2〉0 the mean-square end-to-end distance of a freely jointed chain of molecular weight M. The new, computed relationship between the critical number of backbone atoms for entanglement and the chain cross-sectional area of polymers, Nc = A0,44, is concordant with the cross-sectional area of polymer chains being the parameter controlling the critical entanglement number of backbone atoms of flexible polymers.

    Notes: Poly(methyl methacrylate-g-(propylene oxide-b-ethylene oxide)) and poly (methyl methacrylate-g-(ethylene oxide-b-propylene oxide)), comprising chemically dissimilar sequences, exhibit intramolecular phase separation. These compositions have applications in coatings and as surface-tension modifiers. This paper presents the thermal behavior of these graft copolymers: separate samples of the homopolymer and of the grafts were also analyzed to provide comparisons. The phase behavior has been analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry and by dynamic-mechanical thermal measurements. Two glass transitions (Tg) are observed, caused by the partial incompatibility within the copolymers. The activation energy of the Tg relaxation process of the main chain is decreased by the graft chain. The influence of poly(propylene oxide-b-ethylene oxide) grafts on the thermal degradation of the poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) main chain was studied by using thermogravimetric analysis. Prolysis of the graft copolymers occurs in three stages and begins on the graft chain and at a lower temperature than the pyrolysis of pure PMMA. Both the phase behavior and the thermal stability are found to depend sensitively on the composition of the copolymer. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The solid-state extrusion technique has been used to prepare uniaxially oriented polyethylene bars with rectangular end cross sections of 6 × 50 mm2. They were extruded at 110°C from billets of high density polyethylene. The tensile modulus and strength for the extrudate with a draw ratio (DR) of 14 were 17.9 and 0.32 GPa, respectively. The mechanicals were also measured in the transverse direction by means of the proportional elastic limit (PEL) bending test. The PEL results do not change after DR 14 due to the fibrillate structure formation. Crystallinity and shrinkage tests were made on samples taken over the bar cross section. They show that uniform properties were achieved across the width of the bar with proper die design. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: In order to improve the mechanical properties of polypropylene film, a new processing combining extrusion and zone-annealing has been applied. It was found that there are suitable conditions for each step in the combined processing. When the coextrusion draw ratio was low, the total draw ratio and modulus could be increased by the zone-annealing subsequently done. The highest modulus was obtained when the film was coextruded at extrusion draw ratio 4 and then zone-annealed at 120°C under 7 kg/mm2. The value was 12 GPa in Young's modulus or 17 GPa in dynamic modulus. The peak temperature of αc dynamic dispersion for the combinedly processed film was 109°C, which is higher by 10°C than that for the as-coextruded film. Four drawing methods were compared in dynamic viscoelasticity. These methods are the coextrusion, zone-drawing/zone-annealing, two-step coextrusion, and the combined processing by coextrusion and zone-annealing. The highest dynamic modulus for each method was arranged in the above order. The combined processing indicated the most effective improvement in mechanical properties, because it is believed that lamellae in the original film were broken by cooperating interaction of shear stress, compression, and tension on coextrusion and then the superstructure with a high crystallinity and a high molecular orientation was formed on zone-annealing.

    Notes: The performance of PET [poly(ethylene terephthalate)] and a copolymer of PET has been tested as an adhesive for chromium-coated steel. Crystallinity in the polyesters is found to limit adhesion, probably by restricting chain mobility. Lamination temperatures above the melting point of each polyester give the best adhesion. Degradation of the polyesters at yet higher temperature resulted in both reduced polymer cohesion and adhesion.Optimum bonding to steel was obtained at lamination temperatures between 230 and 275°C for the copolyester and between 280 and 300°C for PET. The standard laminate compression time was 15 min at 50 kg/cm2. Adhesion was evaluated by the ASTM T-peel test. Assessments were made by both the peel energy and the peak load for peel.
