    Notes: Abstract This paper presents the results of pollen analyses from organic sediments of seven cores (299 spectra) in a mountainous area of the north-west Iberian peninsula. The pollen diagrams, supported by seven14C dates, are used to construct a regional pollen sequence covering the main stages of vegetation dynamics, from the last phases of the Late-glacial until the present. During the Late-glacial Interstadial an important development of cryophilous forests (Betula andPinus) was recorded, although various mesophilous and thermophilous tree elements were also present. The Younger Dryas, palynologically clearly defined, is characterized by an important reduction in tree pollen percentages and the expansion of steppe formations (Poaceae andArtemisia). At the beginning of the Holocene, there was an expansion ofQuercus and a spread of other trees, which combined to give a vegetation cover of varied composition but dominated by mixed deciduous forests. Such forest formations prevailed in these mountains until 3000 years ago, when successive deforestation phases are recorded at various times as a result of increased farming activity. The results are compared with data from other mountainous areas in the northern Iberian peninsula and southern France.

    Notes: Abstract An l-amino-acid oxidase (EC 1.4.3.1) that catalyzes the oxidative deamination of twelve l-amino acids has been purified 21-fold and with 14% yield to electrophoretic homogeneity from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells by ammonium-sulfate fractionation, gel filtration through Sephacryl and Superose, anion-exchange chromatography and preparative electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels. The native enzyme is a protein of 470 kDa and consists of eight identical or similarsized subunits of 60 kDa each. Optimum pH and temperature were 8.2 and 55° C, respectively, with a Q10 (45–55° C) of 1.7 and an activation energy of 45 kJ · mol−1. Its absorption spectrum showed, in the visible region, maxima at 360 and 444 nm, characteristic of a flavoprotein with a calculated flavin content of 7.7 mol FAD per mol of native enzyme. Apparent K m values of the twelve l-amino acids which can act as substrates of l-amino-acid oxidase ranged between 31 μM for phenylalanine and 176 μM for methionine. The effect of several specific group reagents, chelating agents and bivalent cations on enzyme activity has also been studied.

    Notes: Abstract The dynamics of vegetation in the North Iberian Peninsula have been historically established from peaty and lacustrine records obtained in strongly continental mountainous areas. Pollen records located in areas with a more oceanic climate, have allowed a more precise evaluation of the changes and differences in the vegetation development of the various biogeographical areas in the North Iberian Peninsula, during the Late-glacial and Holocene. It was found that: (1) The vegetation of the Cantabrian–Atlantic province in northern Iberian Peninsula responded to climatic changes during the last 16000 years. (2) Tree vegetation declined during the Oldest Dryas, with steppe vegetation in the interior and cryophilous vegetation along the coast. (3) During the time of the Lateglacial Interestadial, lowlands, arboreal vegetation was dominant in the landscape (Pinus, Betula, Quercus, Corylus). (4) During the Younger Dryas the differences between coast and interior are less obvious. (5) During the Holocene oceanic decidious forests of Quercus robur, Corylus avellana, Tilia sp. and Fagus sylvatica were present along the coast. At low altitudes, in the interior, forests of Quercus robur / pyrenaica, enclaves of pine woods and Mediterranean types of forest (Quercus ilex, Olea europea) were present. At higher altitudes Pinus (P. sylvestris and P. uncinata) or mixed forests of Pinus and Betula were dominant.
