    Description: The basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) domain is an essential highly conserved DNA-binding domain found in many transcription factors in all eukaryotic organisms. The bHLH domain has been well studied in the Animal and Plant Kingdoms but has yet to be characterized within Fungi. Herein, we obtained and evaluated the phylogenetic relationship of 490 fungal-specific bHLH containing proteins from 55 whole genome projects composed of 49 Ascomycota and 6 Basidiomycota organisms. We identified 12 major groupings within Fungi (F1–F12); identifying conserved motifs and functions specific to each group. Several classification models were built to distinguish the 12 groups and elucidate the most discerning sites in the domain. Performance testing on these models, for correct group classification, resulted in a maximum sensitivity and specificity of 98.5% and 99.8%, respectively. We identified 12 highly discerning sites and incorporated those into a set of rules (simplified model) to classify sequences into the correct group. Conservation of amino acid sites and phylogenetic analyses established that like plant bHLH proteins, fungal bHLH–containing proteins are most closely related to animal Group B. The models used in these analyses were incorporated into a software package, the source code for which is available at www.fungalgenomics.ncsu.edu .

    Notes: We develop a second-order response theory to investigate the effects of external periodic perturbations on a chemical reaction at a stable steady state in an open reactor. We apply the theory to the quadratic Schlögl model, a single-variable nonlinear reaction. In the presence of oscillating reactant or product concentrations or oscillating rate coefficients, the average intermediate concentration, the fluxes, and the dissipation are each a Lorentzian function of frequency with midpoint at the inverse relaxation time of the system. Thus even very short relaxation times can be determined by measuring average rates as a function of frequency of the perturbation. The amplitude of the Lorentzian depends on the chemical mechanism of the reaction and is proportional to the square of the amplitude of the applied perturbation. We also show that energy from the perturbation can be used to drive the reaction in a direction opposite of that predicted by the Gibb's free energy difference of reactants and products, even under circumstances where the overall affinity is independent of the perturbation.

    Notes: The frequency dependence of the average rates of reactions catalyzed by one or more catalysts in a weak oscillating field is derived. The average rates are sums of Lorentzian curves whose characteristic frequencies are the inverse relaxation times of the normal modes of the kinetic system and whose amplitudes are quadratic in the field. The signs of the Lorentz amplitudes can be either positive or negative, so the rates versus frequency can have a variety of shapes, including frequency windows. One can get relaxation times and amplitudes by measuring steady-state rates as a function of the frequency of the field. The theory is applied to determine the Lorentz amplitudes and characteristic frequencies of ion transport rates catalyzed by Na+–K+–ATPase in erythrocytes.

    Notes: The nonlinear response of a two-state chemical transition to an oscillating electric field is examined. A reaction for which this analysis is particularly relevant is a conformational transition of a membrane protein exposed to an ac electric field. Even a modest externally applied field leads to a very large local field within the membrane. This gives rise to nonlinear behavior. The applied ac field causes harmonics in the polarization and can cause a dc shift in the state occupancy, both of which can be observed and used to determine kinetic parameters. Fourier coefficients are calculated for the enzyme state probability in the ac field, exactly for infinite frequency, and in powers of the field for finite frequency. Kramers–Kronig relations are proved and response functions are given for the leading terms of the harmonics. The results are extended to the spherical symmetry relevant to suspensions of spherical cells, vesicles, or colloidal particles. If the protein catalyzes a reaction, free energy is transduced from the electric field to the output reaction, even if that reaction is electrically silent. Many transport enzymes are ideal examples. The ac field can cause the enzyme to pump ions or molecules through the membrane against an (electro)chemical potential. The efficiency of this energy transduction can be as high as 25%.

    Notes: A four-state transport protein that has electric charges that move concomitantly with conformational changes can transduce energy in either direction between an alternating membrane potential and a concentration gradient. An alternating electric potential of very large amplitude is considered, and the rapid-equilibrium approximation is used for the conformational changes. This permits deriving simple expressions for the transport flux, the power supplied by the alternating potential, and the power applied to the concentration gradient.

    Notes: Random noise is typically thought of as the enemy of order rather than as a constructive influence. Recent work has shown however that under certain circumstances, noise and Brownian motion can facilitate transmission of information via a mechanism know as stochastic resonance, and help systems use chemical energy and nonequilibrium fluctuations to drive directed motion via fluctuation driven transport. In this focus issue we have collected several articles that capture the flavor of these developing fields and point the way to new directions for research. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
