    Description: German electricity giants have recently taken high-level decisions to remove selected fossil fuel operations from their company portfolio. This new corporate strategy could be seen as a direct response to the growing global influence of the fossil fuel divestment campaign. In this paper we ask whether the divestment movement currently exerts significant influence on decision-making at the top four German energy giants - E.On, RWE, Vattenfall and EnBW. We find that this is not yet the case. After describing the trajectory of the global fossil fuel divestment campaign, we outline four alternative influences on corporate strategy that, currently, are having a greater impact than the divestment movement on Germany's power sector. In time, however, clear political decisions and strong civil support may increase the significance of climate change concerns in the strategic management of the German electricity giants.

    Description: The transition towards a circular economy is high on the political agenda and support for innovative business models can be seen as one of the key strategies for its implementation. Nevertheless most of these business models rely on an increasing generation of waste and thus undermine the prevention of waste as top of the waste hierarchy. The paper aims to link this debate to more systemic eco-innovations that offer economic market potentials by reduced material inputs and waste generation. This directs the attention to sufficiency strategies that surpass the level of individual consumer choices and regards the potentials of entrepreneurial sufficiency strategies. It takes the example of waste contracting modelsin Germany as a possible approach of resource-light business models that provide existing utility aspects with altered consumption patterns and decreased resource consumption. It describes environmental and economic benefits and draws conclusions on necessary policy framework conditions.

    Description: Das zentrale Problem der Menschheit heute ist der Substanzverzehr, seine Ursache die Fixierung der Politik auf Wirtschaftswachstum. Die Lösung liegt im Gegenteil der Wachstumspolitik, in der Politik der Nachhaltigen Entwicklung. Diese Politik lässt die nachhaltigere Produktion in den Grenzen des Substanzerhalts wachsen und die weniger nachhaltige schrumpfen. Sie wird erst gelingen, wenn nicht mehr Wachstum, sondern Nachhaltigkeit das Ziel der Wirtschaftspolitik ist. Das erfordert eine neue Verantwortlichkeit für die Gemeingüter. Und es ist durchsetzbar, wenn die Sozialbindung des Eigentums auf das Kapitaleigentum ausgedehnt wird.

    Description: Alexandra Seibt untersucht Wirtschaftsverbände im Längsschnitt anhand eines Mehrmethodendesigns, bestehend aus Dokumentenanalysen, Inhaltsanalysen und teilstandardisierten Leitfadeninterviews. Die Autorin kann bei den Verbänden einen zunehmenden kombinierten Einsatz von öffentlichen und nicht öffentlichen Kommunikationsstrategien im Sinne des PA-Managements nachweisen. Verbände nutzen hierbei - wie Protestgruppen und NGOs - die Öffentlichkeit, um über die externe Kommunikation Aufmerksamkeit und Zustimmung für ihre Interessen im politischen System zu generieren. Als Fallbeispiel dienen die Verbände der Branche der erneuerbaren Energien während der Novellierungen zum Erneuerbare-Energien-Gesetz.

    Description: Although a substantial economic energy saving potential exists in the residential sector of the European Union, the energy efficiency service (EES) market is much less developed in this market segment than in other demand sectors (e.g. the industry or the public/service sector). This paper presents an analysis of the current situation and existing potentials for future expansion. A specific analysis methodology has been developed and applied by a research consortium in 18 EU countries. This methodology has mostly built upon an extensive review of the existing literature and on interviews of a large number of acknowledged experts. Its application has allowed identifying encouraging development trends in specific market segments where the possibility of aggregating the EES demand or of exploiting good relationships with customers have created interesting investment opportunities. These trends have been observed in particular in Germany, Denmark, France, Flanders (BE), Hungary, Romania and UK. The assessment performed has also allowed discussing a series of strategies and policy measures that can be adopted to overcome existing barriers to market development. The general conclusion drawn in the paper is that energy efficiency policies supporting EES markets in the residential sector are highly needed. Although EU policies have typically a limited direct impact, they can increase trust into EESs and EES providers. At the national level, a stronger collaboration of governments or local administrations with banks to finance EESs is still very necessary in many EU countries.

    Description: This paper presents a new household-level methodology for transition towards sustainability. The methodology includes measuring the resource use of households on a micro level, testing relevant measures towards a one-planet resource use, and developing mainstreaming options in co-operation with households and providers of services, products, and infrastructures. We use the MIPS (Material Input Per unit of Service) method to calculate the use of natural resources and concentrate on the material footprint as an aggregated indicator for the overall use of material resources. With HST (Household-level Sustainability Transition) methodology, we extend the material footprint methodology from just measuring household resource use to developing visions, conducting experiments, as well as learning and upscaling, all of which contribute to the whole Transition-Enabling Cycle. Results from the first application of the HST methodology on five households in Jyväskylä, Finland, show that it is possible to achieve a significantly more sustainable level of consumption by a relatively few changes in everyday living. Achieving a one-planet use of material resources, however, also requires systemic changes.

    Description: The electric utility sector in Australia, Germany and the U.S. are all going through major changes driven by declining sales, increasing use of distributed energy sources and policy responses to global climate change. This paper discusses efforts in each of these countries to reform their electric industries, address climate change and promote energy efficiency. Going forward, we see a role for government, utilities and private market energy efficiency efforts in all three countries, although the emphasis will vary by country and will evolve over time. Where all three parties can work together with a common vision, reform efforts are likely to be more successful and more sustained. In all three countries the future is uncertain. In the face of this uncertainty, energy efficiency supporters need to keep abreast of these changes, and find more flexible and nimble policy strategies for energy efficiency to prosper, as the future is likely to unfold in unexpected ways.

    Description: Das Auslaufen einiger Tausend der rund 20.000 Strom- und Gas-Konzessionsverträge hat in Deutschland zu einer Rekommunalisierungswelle geführt. Von 2005 bis heute gab es über 120 Stadtwerke-Neugründungen und 200 Stromnetzübernahmen. Das Wuppertal Institut hat die Gründe dafür und die damit verbundenen Chancen für die Gemeinden untersucht und die Ergebnisse in einer Sondierungsstudie veröffentlicht. Vielerorts stellte sich heraus, dass die Altkonzessionäre das örtliche Verteilnetzgeschäft nur suboptimal ausführten. Außerdem haben im Zuge der Energiewende zahlreiche Kommunen erkannt, dass sich mit der Übernahme der örtlichen Strom- und/oder Gasverteilnetze die Gestaltungsspielräume in der Energieversorgung deutlich verbessern lassen. Die Autoren beschreiben in diesem Artikel fünf Empfehlungen im Hinblick auf Rekommunalisierungen für Städte und Gemeinden.

    Description: After a wave of privatizations in the end of the 1990s, the electrical power supply of many municipalities in Germany has been returned into public hands. Many municipalities discover chances and possibilities for local action, which arise with remunicipalisation. The local policy-makers realize that remunicipalisation offers the opportunity of implementing an independent energy policy at local level which is critical in creating a transformation to a sustainable energy system based on energy efficiency and renewable energies. This scoping study provides an introduction to the topic of establishing municipal utilities in Germany. The findings of the authors' study provide important new insights into the possibilities to decentralise and democratise the German power sector. The findings were identified on the basis of a comprehensive screening of all newly established municipal utilities in Germany. As most network concession contracts in Germany expire by 2016, there has now existed a window of opportunity to rebuild the local energy supply. As a result, 72 new local power companies were established in Germany within just seven years (between early 2005 and late 2012). The results of this unique study will inform about details regarding regional concentration, the size of municipalities, the legal forms of the newly founded municipal public utility and the role of strategic partnerships. Furthermore, the founding of 72 municipal utilities since 2005 leads us to ask for the reasons. The study reviews the German trend towards municipal ownership of local utilities, assessing their performance based on 10 targets related to the energy transition, climate protection, and the local economic impact. Based on expert opinions, the study finds out that the likelihood of these targets being reached is "high to very high". The Japanese translation of the scoping study is completed by a foreword by Prof. Dr. Jörg Raupach-Sumiya (Professor, College of Business Administration, Ritsumeikan University) highlighting the importance of this study for Japan's energy policy.

    Description: Die Produktion von Kunststoffen ist eine Geschichte extremen Wachstums: waren es global 1950 noch 1,7 Millionen, sind es 2012 weltweit 288 Millionen Tonnen (Mt). 57 Mt davon werden in der EU erzeugt mit einem gleichzeitigen Abfallvolumen von 25 Mt. Einher gehen hohe Verbräuche fossiler Rohstoffe mit entsprechenden Umweltbelastungen und massiven Schäden, die durch Plastikmüll verursacht werden. Das Wuppertal Institut hat im Auftrag des Naturschutzbunds Deutschland (NABU) untersucht, wie sich dieser Wachstumstrend in Deutschland ohne Gegensteuerung fortsetzen wird und mit welchen Strategien die Plastikflut eingedämmt werden kann. Die Autoren der Studie errechneten einen Steigerung um 28 Prozent bis zum Jahr 2030, insbesondere in den Bereichen Verpackungen und Bau. Für die künftig wichtigsten Anwendungsbereiche wurden in der Studie jeweils drei konkrete Ansätze zur Verringerung des Kunststoffeinsatzes aus den Bereichen Industrie, Handel und Haushalte ausgewählt. Diese neun Optionen wurden an Fallbeispielen auf ihre Vor- und Nachteile und die grundsätzliche technische, rechtliche und ökonomische Machbarkeit hin diskutiert. Umsetzungsansätze liefert die Studie für den politischen Raum, für Unternehmen und den privaten Konsum.

    Description: Unternehmen sind heutzutage mit einer Vielzahl von Herausforderungen und Veränderungen konfrontiert, die zugleich Chance und Risiko für ihre wirtschaftliche Weiterentwicklung darstellen. Dazu gehören nicht nur grundlegende Trends wie Klimawandel, Ressourcenknappheit oder Urbanisierung, sondern auch der Wandel von Technologien, Geschäftsmodellen, gesetzlichen Rahmenbedingungen oder der gesellschaftlichen Akzeptanz. All dies hat globale und nationale Veränderungen in Märkten zur Folge und stellt die darin operierenden Unternehmen vor konkrete Herausforderungen. Die Auseinandersetzung mit der Zukunft gewinnt somit immer mehr an Bedeutung und stellt einen wichtigen Faktor für den langfristigen und nachhaltigen Erfolg eines Unternehmens dar. Die Strategische Frühaufklärung unterstützt Unternehmen dabei, Herausforderungen und Veränderungen rechtzeitig zu identifizieren und darauf zu reagieren. Stefan Reicherz erstellt eine flexible Blaupause hierfür: Individuell an ein Unternehmen angepasst, liefert sie diesem die notwendigen Informationen und Hilfsmittel, um erfolgreiche Strategische Frühaufklärung durchzuführen - und damit aus Risiken Chancen werden zu lassen.

    Description: Ziel dieser Studie ist es, einen aktuellen Überblick über den Stand der Recyclingwirtschaft in Deutschland zu geben. Der Fokus liegt dabei vor allem auf den Marktprozessen, die bereits heute ökonomische Anreize zur Schließung von Stoffkreisläufen geben, bzw. auf spezifischen Hemmnissen, die genau solchen Entwicklungen im Wege stehen. Aufbauend auf der Analyse spezifischer Hemmnisse für einzelne Abfallfraktionen (rechtliche und institutionelle Hemmnisse, Marktmacht, Informationsdefizite etc.) leitet die Studie verschiedene Instrumente und handlungsorientierte Ansätze ab, die zu einer Verbesserung der Kreislaufführung beitragen könnten; dabei kann Deutschland auch von bestehenden Best-Practice-Ansätzen im Ausland profitieren. Dazu gehören unter anderem der verstärkte Einsatz ökonomischer Instrumente, Maßnahmen zur verstärkten Integration von Abfallwirtschaft und Produktionssektor, Urban Mining Konzepte, internationale Vereinbarungen zum Rohstoffrecycling sowie Green Tech Funds.

    Description: Nach einer langen Phase der Stabilität ist die Stromwirtschaft in den vergangenen 15 Jahren stark in Bewegung geraten. Zunächst stand der Wechsel von staatlich überwachten und regulierten Gebietsmonopolen hin zu liberalisierten Erzeuger- und Verbrauchermärkten an. Im Moment befinden wir uns in einem ähnlichen Umbruch, weg von konventioneller hin zu erneuerbarer Energieerzeugung. Im vorliegenden Beitrag soll der Leitfrage nachgegangen werden, ob die Paradigmen der einzelnen Phasen miteinander vereinbar sind, welche noch immer ihre Daseinsberechtigung haben und welche modifiziert werden sollten.

    Description: Nach einer langen Phase der Stabilität ist die Stromwirtschaft in den vergangenen 15 Jahren stark in Bewegung geraten. Mit der Liberalisierung stand zunächst der Wechsel von Gebietsmonopolen hin zu wettbewerblich organisierten Erzeuger- und Verbrauchermärkten an. Derzeit findet ein ganz ähnlicher Umbruch statt, der vom Übergang von konventioneller hin zu erneuerbarer Stromerzeugung gekennzeichnet ist. Aber sind die Paradigmen der einzelnen Phasen miteinander vereinbar und hat jede für sich noch immer ihre Daseinsberechtigung, oder ist hier eine Modifizierung notwendig? Das Strommarktdesign der Zukunft kann nicht auf einem leeren Blatt entworfen, sondern es müssen bestehende Strukturen berücksichtigt werden. Gleichzeitig ist die Frage zu beantworten, ob die Wahl zwischen regulatorischen oder marktbasierten Ansätzen sich auch anhand der mit ihnen möglichen Präzision der Steuerung unterscheidet.

    Description: Dieses Wuppertal Paper befasst sich mit folgenden Leitfragen: Wie wichtig sind Stadtwerke für die Energiewende? Was sind dabei die besonderen Beiträge von Stadtwerken? Hier ist insbesondere zu berücksichtigen, dass kommunal betriebene Kraft-Wärme-Kopplungs-Anlagen (KWK-Anlagen) ein wichtiger Komplementär zum Ausbau der erneuerbaren Energien darstellen und dass kommunale KWK-Anlagen inzwischen einen nennenswerten Beitrag zur Sicherstellung der Residuallast liefern. Zudem geht es um die Leitfrage, welche Rahmenbedingungen die Rolle von Stadtwerken als zentrale Akteure der Energiewende und insbesondere als Betreiber von KWK-Anlagen erschweren.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Au cours de la phase inhabituelle de mue d'un isopode d'eau courante,Lirceuts brachyrus, la moitié postérieure de l'exosquelette est éliminée 24 heures avant la moitié antérieure. A ce stade, une reminéralisation se développe dans la partie postérieure alors que la partie antérieure est dans un stade de pré-mue. Le pourcentage de différence en calcium dans les deux moitiés à mi-mue et mue complète est respectivement de 22% (p〈0.01) et 33% (p〈0.01), indiquant une complexation du calcium pendant la mue. La rapidité de la reminéralisation est illustrée par le fait que le contenu minéral total double dans la partie postérieure entre la mi-mue et la mue totale et dans la partie antérieure entre la fin de la mue et un jour après. Le carbonate de calcium, sous forme de calcite, a pu être identifié par diffraction électronique de coupes fines des téguments.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Während der ungewöhnlichen Häutungssequenz des Frischwasser-IsopodenLirceus brachyurus (Harger) wird die hintere Hälfte des äußeren Skeletts 24 Std vor der vorderen Hälfte abgestoßen. In der halbgehäuteten Phase erfolgt Remineralisation im hinteren Teil, während der vordere Teil in einem Vorhäutungszustand ist. Der prozentuale Unterschied des Calciums in den zwei Hälften bei Halb- und Vollhäutungszustand ist 22% (p〈0,01) bzw. 33% (p〈0,01), was andeutet, daß Calcium während der Häutung abgesondert wird. Die Geschwindigkeit der Remineralisation erhellt aus der Tatsache, daß sich der Gesamtmineralgehalt im hinteren Teil zwischen Halt- und Vollhäutung, in der vorderen Hälfte jedoch zwischen Endhäutung und einem Tag nach der Häutung verdoppelt. Calciumcarbonat in kristalliner Calcitform wurde mittels Elektronendiffraktion von dünnen Hautschnitten nachgewiesen.
    Notes: Abstract During the unusual molt sequence of the fresh-water isopod,Lirceus brachyrus (Harger), the posterior half of the exoskeleton is shed 24 hours before the anterior half. At the half-molt stage, occurs in the posterior part while the anterior portion is in a pre-molt condition. The percentage difference in calcium in the two halves at half-molt and full-molt is22 (p〈0.01) and33 (p〈0.01) respectively, an indication that calcium is sequestered during The rapidity of remineralization is illustrated by the fact that the total mineral content doubles in the posterior part between half and full molt and in the anterior half between the end of molt and one day after ecdysis. Calcium carbonate in the calcite cystalline form was demonstrated by electron diffraction of thin sections of the integument.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Un échantillon minéral provenant de Burgess, Canada s'est révélé être un speciment exceptionnellement pur de fluoroapatite après analyse chimique et cristallographique. La composition globale de cet échantillon est la suivante: $$(Ca^2 )9.98(Sr^{2 + } ,Na^ + ,K^ + ,Mg^{2 + } )0.02(PO_4^{3 - } )5.98(HCO_3^ - ,CO_3^{2 - } )0.02(F^ - )2$$ . L'axe cristallographique C est de 6.865 A et l'axe a de 9.374 A. Des expériences d'échanges réalisés à l'aide de45Ca,32P et18F indiquent la présence de gros cristallites de surface spécifique de l'ordre de 1 m2/g. Il apparait que l'interprétation physique des processus d'échange ne nécessite pas l'existence de compartiments séparés, avec chacun son propre facteur cinétique, les échanges semblent être simplement liés à un changement exponentiel dans l'énergie libre de la réaction. Pour la réaction suivante: $$(Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 OH solide + (F^ - ) \rightleftarrows (Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 F solide + (OH^ - )$$ , la constante thermodynamique de 101.26 a été calculée, suggérant que le fluorapatite se forme toujours aux dépens de l'hydroxyapatite dans des conditions physiologiques. Cette transformation se continue en abaissant le pH.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine Mineralprobe aus Burgess, Kanada, erwies sich nach chemischer und kristallographischer Analyse als außergewöhnlich reines Fluorapatit. Die Gesamtzusammensetzung entspricht: $$(Ca^{2 + } )_{9,98} (Sr^{2 + } ,Na^ + ,K^ + ,Mg^{2 + } )_{0,02} (PO_4^{3 - } )_{5,98} (HCO_3^ - ,CO_3^{2 - } )_{0,02} (F^ - )_2 $$ . Die kristallographische c-Achse wurde bestimmt und ergab 6,865 Å, und die a-Achse ergab 9,374 Å. Austauschwerte, welche durch Anwendung von45Ca,32P und18F erhalten wurden, deuteten auf große Kristalliten mit einer spezifischen Oberfläche von ca. 1 m2/g. Die Befunde deuten darauf hin, daß für die physikalische Erklärung des Austauschvorganges keine separaten Kompartimente mit eigenen kinetischen Faktoren nötig sind, sondern daß der Austausch mit dem exponentiellen Wechsel in der freien Energie der Reaktion in einfacher Beziehung steht. Für die Reaktion $$(Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 OH_{in fester Form} + (F^ - ) \rightleftarrows (Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 F_{in fester Form} + (OH^ - )$$ wurde als thermodynamische Konstante 101,26 errechnet, was darauf deutet, daß unter physiologischen Bedingungen immer Fluorapatit auf Kosten von Hydroxyapatit entsteht. Diese Umwandlung wird erhöht, wenn das pH erniedrigt wird.
    Notes: Abstract A mineral specimen from Burgess, Canada, proved upon chemical and crystallographic analyses to be an exceptionally pure sample of fluorapatite. The over-all composition corresponds to $$(Ca^{2 + } )_{9.98} (Sr^{2 + } ,Na^ + ,K^ + ,Mg^{2 + } )_{0.02} (PO_4^{3 - } )_{5.98} (HCO_3^ - ,CO_3^{2 - } )_{0.02} (F^ - )_2 $$ . The crystallographic c-axis was determined to be 6.865 Å, and the a-axis 9.374 A. Exchange data obtained by employing45Ca,32P, and18F indicate the presence of large crystallites with a specific surface of the order of 1 m2/g. It is indicated that the physical interpretation of the exchange process does not require the existence of separate departments, each with its own kinetic factor, but that the exchange may be simply related to the exponential change in the free energy of the reaction. For the reaction $$(Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 OH_{solid} + (F^ - ) \rightleftarrows (Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 F_{solid} + (OH^ - )$$ the thermodynamic constant has been calculated to be 101.26, implying that fluorapatite always will form at the expense of hydroxyapatite under physiologic conditions. This transformation will be furthered by lowering the pH.

    Notes: Despite its being weaker base poly(2-vinylpyridine) polymerized DL-β-phenylalanine NCA at a much faster rate than pyridine and α-picoline. Poly(2-vinylpyridine) adsorbs NCA by hydrogen bonding with the cooperation of a few pyridine groups. This results in a high local concentration of NCA. The syndiotactic configuration of pyridine group seemed to be least suitable for the cooperative hydrogen bonding. Adsorbed NCA is activated to form an “activated” NCA which in turn reacts with an NCA adsorbed on the same polymer chain. Since the polymer chain is flexible, this intramolecular reaction takes place frequently, resulting in the acceleration of polymerization. The intramolecular reaction along the polymer chain is dependent on the degree of polymerization of polymer catalyst. A suitable model was proposed for the intramolecular reaction to explain the effect of degree of polymerization.

    Notes: 5-Bromouracil-substituted DNA was isolated form B. Subtilis and phage PBSH. The three DNA fractions of Different densities (TT, TB, and BB) were irradiated with u.v. (313nm). The number of single-strand and double-strand breaks was determined. The breakage rates are given. It was found that in hybrid DNA (TB) double-strand breaks occur depending linearly on dose. In BB-DNA the observed double-Strand bresks can be divided into two fractions with a linear and quadratic dose dependence respectively. The results can be explained by assuming intramolecular energy transfer from the BU-containing strand to its complementary strand.

    Notes: Differential enthalpic analysis of a series of 3′,5′-cyclic nucleotides indicates that homolytic cleavage of the six-membered phosphate ring occurs either immediately prior to or concurrent with decomposition of the crystal lattice. Homolysis is followed by a rapid polymerization to yield oligonucleotides. The enthalpies of these reactions have, with the exception of guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic phosphate, almost identical values of 25 kcal/mole. The anomalous case is attributed to a more stabilized phosphate ring as a result of hydrogen bonding through the two position of the purine ring. The pair of overlapping exothermic peaks observed in each of the thermograms for cAMP and cIMP is related to the presence of two conformational arrangements within the unit cell of each compound.

    Notes: The total energy and the electronic properties of some syn purine nucleosides have been determined as a function of the rotation angle around the C-N glycosidic linkage. Invariably, the crystallographic coordinates provide a state lying at or very near the minimum on the potential energy curve according to the extended Hückel parametrization here employed. The ribose moiety always carries a net positive charge whereas the base is always negatively charged. Changes in dipole moment magnitudes for the overall structure as well as in net atomic charges are noted upon rotation around the glycosidic linkage indicating that potential functions for polynucleotides may be in error if such changes are ignored.

    Notes: The primary amine initiated homopolymerization of γ-benzyl-L-glutamate NCA in dioxane at 25°C, 35°C, 50°C, and 65°C has been investigated. The reactions were virtually independent of temperature indicating an activation energy of less than 1 kcal/mole. The entropy of activation was estimated to be -65 entropy units at 300°K. The reaction proceeded in two stages. The first stage was zero-order with respect to monomer, whereas the second was first-order with respect to monomer. Both stages were first-order with respect to initiator. These results were interpreted by assuming that the rate constant for propagation was not independent of the degree of polymerization up to the point where a conformational transition to α-helix occurred.

    Notes: The kinetics of interaction between proflavine and poly I.poly C at 25°C, neutral pH, and moderate ionic strength have been studied by relaxation methods. The qualitative features of this system resemble those previously reported by Crothers and co-workers for proflavine-DNA and proflavine-poly A·poly U interactions-two relaxations are observed coresponding to a fast bimolecular step followed by a slower isomerization. These results can best be accommodated by a two-step mechanism leading from the free dye through an “outside-bound” complex to the intercalated complex. Quantitative comparison of the various rate constants for proflavine binding to different double-helical polynucleotides shows that the rates are slower for both ribohomopolymer pairs than for DNA. The rates for poly I·poly C are approximately three times faster than these for poly A·poly U.

    Notes: Infrared and Raman spectra of aqueous poly(rA-rU)·poly(rA-rU), the double-helical complex containing strands of alternating riboadenylate and ribouridylate residues, display significant differences from one another and from corresponding spectra of poly(rA)·poly(rU), the double-helical complex of riboadenylate and ribouridylate homopolymers. Parallel studies on the copolymer and homopolymer complexes by cesium sulfate density gradient centrifugation, ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy, hydrogenion titration, 1-N oxidation of adenine residues by monoperphthalic acid and X-ray diffraction reveal, however, that the geometry of base pairing between adenine and uracil is closely similar in each complex and apparently of the Watson-Crick type. Therefore the differences observed between vibrational spectra of poly (rA-rU)·poly (rA-rU) and poly(rA)·poly(rU) are not due to different base-pairing schemes but may be attributed to differences in vibrational coupling between vertically stacked bases. Vibrational coupling may also account for the differences between infrared and Raman spectra of the same complex. Thus, the present results indicate that infrared and Raman frequencies of RNA in the region 1750-1550 cm-1 should be dependent on the base sequence.

    Notes: A simple model is introduced to investigate the stability of a sedimenting entanglement. The sedimenting entanglement is represented by a sedimenting sieve. Solvent can pass through it, but single-chain molecules that flow into it become entangled and their flow decreases or, if permanent entanglements form, ceases entirely. With this model we are able to find the conditions under which the mass of a sedimenting entanglement remains constant, grows or decays to a stable value, grows beyond limit, or decays to the mass of a single chain. The theory is applied to the sedimentation of small concentrations of large chain molecules in solutions of small chain molecules in solutions of small chain molecules for the case in which the entanglements are long-lived. Equations are derived which, (1) give the stable entanglement mass as a function of rotor speed and concentration and, (2) for a given concentration predict the rotor speed at which the entanglement mass grows without limit. Numerical results for small concentrations of T2 DNA sedimenting in solutions of T7 DNA are presented.

    Notes: The solution bebavior of poly-L-proline Form II has been studied in water and aqueous salt solutions by both elastic and quasi-elastic light -scattering techniques. The results of this study suggest that polyproline Form II can exist in water at 24 °C as an associated polymer complex and that certain salts which do not appear to affect the helix integrity, e.g., guanidinium-HCl, resutl in dissociation of the aggregate. Other neutral salts, of the variety effective in mediating unfolding of the Form II helix (e.g., 4M NaClO4) also induce aggregate dissociation, but 4M CaCl2 results in enhanced aggregation of polyproline. Kinetic experiments indicate that a time of 20 hours is necessary for the completion of the “large” to “small” transformation (at 22°C) which is induced by the addition of 4M NaClO4. Thus it appears that neutral salts additives in aqueous solutions of polyproline influence both the state of aggregation and the conformation of this polymer.

    Notes: The dielectric relaxation of namtive DNA and DNA-proflavine complexes at different DNA phosphate (P) to dye (D) ratios, were investigated in the frequency range 100 c/sec to 100 Kc/sec. The proflavine molecules were found to have a profound effect on the static dielectric constant and the relaxation time of the polymers. The static dielectric constant was oberserved to decrese with increasing level of added proflavine. At P/D = 1, the variation of dielectric constant with frequency was small. Relaxation time (τ) was greater for the DNA-proflavine complexes compared to that for free DNA, Maximum value of the relaxation time was obtained at P/D = 10. The increase in the relaxation time and decrease in the static dielectric constant were attributed to the increase in length and meutralization of surface charges of the DNA molecules, respectively, as aresult of proflavine binding.

The solvent 4M CaCl2 results in a reduction of polymer structural orgganization. These findings corroborate suggestion of polyproline aggregation and solution behavior in aqueous neutral salt solytion (see preceding article).

    Notes: A detailed study on the deuterium NMR of hydrated collagen in the presence of alkali and alkaline earth salt is reported. The effect of different salts in reducing the deuteron quadrupole splitting are similer at low molar content of salt. At higher salt contents, larger ions are more effective. The ressults are explained by the blocking of water binding sites to collagen by hydrated ions. When the temperature is reduced, only part of the adsorbed water iss frozen, and the amount of “unfreezable water” decreases with the increase in ionic sizes(LiCl 〈 MgCl2 〈 KCL 〈 KCNS). The freezing temperature is also lowered in the presence of salts. A description of the structure of hydrated collagen based upon the observed facts is given.

    Notes: Poly-γ-L-glutamic acid has been synthesized by the activated pentachlorophenyl ester polymerization method and the molecule weight of the polymer was found to be 16,000. Comparative conformational studies on the synthetic and on the native polyglutamic acid mbtained from B. anthracis and B. subtilis were carried out using optical rotatory dispersion, circular dichroism, peptide absorption spectrum, and titration data. These results show that poly-γ-glutamic acid does not exhibit any conformational order under the conditions of investigation. At low degrees of ionization, restriction of conformational freedom via random “hypercoiling” of the chain appears likely.

    Notes: Ultraviolet absorption, fluorescence excitation and emission, and fluorescence anisotropy demonstrate that the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbone 3,4-benzpyrene, Pyrene, anthracene, and 9-methylanthracene bind to histone IV after the sow conformational change in the presence of divalent phosphate anion. These hydrocarbons do not bind, within our limits of detection, to histone IV in the diosorderde form at low pH or to the form produced by the fast conformational change when the slow change is prevented. High anisotropy values for the bound hydrocarbon indicate a high degree of aggregation for the histone IV.

    Notes: The aggregation of native acid-soluble collagen (N-ASC) and of pronase-treated acid soluble collagen (P-ASC) was examined in solution under conditions which varied from those of minimum collagen-collagen interaction to those leading to incipient fiber formation. Molecular weights and weight distributions were determined in the analytical ultracentrifuge using the Yphantis high speed sedimentation equilibrium and Aarchiblad approach-to-equilibrim techniques. The aggregation was pH and ionic strength dependent in each case. Under conditions of minimum aggregation (low pH, low ionic strength), N-ASC showed the presence of permant aggregates. At higher pH and ionic strength, a higher fraction of aggregate was formed but these were of the same charcter and molecular weight as the permanent aggregates. The aggregates were of a single molecular size, with a weight of 1.5 × 106 daltons, compared with a monomer collagen weight of 3.1 × 105 daltons. The P-ASC formed aggregates also but to a much lower extent and the maximum aggregate size corresponded to dimers in molecular weight. These data show the major importance of molecular end-regions in collagen aggregation to form native type fibers and, by virtue of the discrete size of the N-ASC aggregates, support the microfibrillar hypothesis for the assembly of collagen fibrills.

    Notes: The sedimentation coefficient and intrinsic viscosity of nicked and closed circular PM2 bacteriophage DNA have been measured as a function of pH in the alkaline region. A gradual increase in the sidimentation coefficient, and a corresponding decrease in the intrinsic viscosity, are observed for the superhelical (closed) circle in the pH region from 10.5 to about 10.9. This has been tentatively interpreted in terms of the known dependence of sedimentation coefficient upon the number of superhelical turns. At slightly higher pH values, the curve passes through the minimum (sedimentation coefficient) and maximum (intrinsic viscosity) expected when the superhelical turns present at neutral pH are unwound by partial alkaline denaturation. Sedimentation studies of the relaxed (nicked) circular species have revealed the existence of DNA forms in the pH region from 11.27 to 11.37 which sediment considerably faster than the closed circle in the same pH region. These have been identified as partially denatured nicked circles, in which varying fractions of the duplex structure have undergone alkaline denaturation, but strand separation has not yet occurred. Varying fractions of a slower species, either undenatured or completely denatured nicked circles, are also observed in some of these experiments. A corresponding result is observed in the intrinsic viscosity vs. pH curve.When nicked circular PM2 DNA is exposed to various alkaline pH's, rapidly neutralized, and sedimented at neutral pH, the expected sharp transition from native to denatured (strand-separated) molecules is seen. However, a very narrow pH range is noted in which native and denatured forms coexist in a single experiment. The above experiments carried out upon the closed form also reveal a narrow pH range in which the bulk of the transition from native closed circles to the collapsed cyclic coil takes place, in acccord with an earlier study on a different DNA. This transition is shown never to be completely effected, however, as there is a fraction (7-8%)of the closed circles which renature to the native form, regardless of the alkaline pH employed. This same phenomenon was not observed in the case of artificially closed λb2b5c DNA circles. Possible explanations for some of the above results are discussed.

    Notes: Polymerizations of DL-phenylalanine NCA by block copolymers of sarcosine and DL-phenylalanine, designated by (Phe)m(Sar)n and capable of reaction at the phenylalanyl terminal, were investigated in nitrobenzene solution at 25°C. With increasing n for constant m (m = 0, 1, 2, and 5), the polymerization rate greatly increased. Previously the acceleration of the initiation reaction in the polymerization of DL-phenylalanine NCA by polysarcosine (m = 0) was reported. The present results showing the acceleration by the copolymers of sarcosine and DL-phenylalanine indicate the presence of the polymer effect in the propagation reaction as well. However, the polymer effect was most marked with polysarcosine (m = 0), and decreased with increasing m.The same polymerizations by sequential copolymers composed of ten sarcosine units and two DL-phenylalanine units were also investigated. Again with these copolymer catalysts the polymerization rate was larger than that by monomeric amines. But the polymer effect decreased sharply when the phenylalanine units take positions near the terminal amine group of the copolymer catalyst.These two deteriorating effects of the phenylalanine unit have been interpreted in terms of the decrease of the flexibility of polymer chain, caused possibly by an intramolecular hydrogen bond of the phenylalanine unit.

    Notes: Accurate equilibrium binding data for the oxygenation of hemoglobin are used (a) to show that various models for cooperativity are inconsistent with the best available experimental data, (b) to determine the equilibrium constants for binding of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate to hemoglobin molecules in intermediate stages of oxygenation, and (c) to deduce a mechanism for allosteric effects in hemoglobin which is consistent with the best available experimental data. The total free energy of cooperativity is defined and discussed.

    Notes: A conductivity dispersion has been measured at very low frequencies (VLF) on several concentrated DNA solutions. By measuring simultaneously their electric birefringence decay, it is shown that the dielectric relaxation (which is related to the conductivity dispersion) is due to the molecular orientation. Different polarization mechanisms are discussed. It is concluded that the DNA polarizability measured in the VLF range can only be explained by the orientation of a permanent ionic dipole. It is suggested that such permanent dipoles could be caused by small differences in the ionic composition between the two molecular “ends;” the difference could either be stable (asymmetrical localization of protein impurities for instance) or transient (fluctuating dipoles explained by the Kirkwood-Schumaker theory).

    Notes: In the present work, the synthesis of the three primary oligomers of α-L-glutamic acid is described; the general formula is the following: [I] The choice of protective groups at the both ends of the chain allows for the good solubility in the water and the liberation of free carboxyl groups on the side chain. Thus, models are obtained for the study of thermodynamic properties of solutions and especially of the interactions between polyanions and cations. The prepared products are characterized by different techniques such as mass spectrometry potentiometry, tonometry, and thin-layer chromatography. The results are in agreement and lead to the conclusions that the molecules have the general formula of [I] and are stereoregular.

    Notes: In continuation of our studies on the effect of the base and the phosphate groups on the glycosyl and the sugar-phosphate backbone conformation, we have carried out semi-empirical potential energy calculations on the common 5′- and 3′5′-ribopyrimidine mono- and diphosphates by considering simultaneous rotations about the glycosyl (χ) and the C(4′)-C(5′) (ψ) bonds. This calculation provides an assessment of the nature and orientation of the base on the sugar-phosphate backbone conformation of nucleotides and polynucleotides. It is found that the attractive inetractions between the 5′-phosphate group and the base mutually stabilize the antiand the gauche-gauche (gg) conformations about χ and ψ, respectively, in 5′-ribopyrimidine nucleotides. The introduction of the 3′-phosphate group as in 3′,5′-ribopyrimidine diphosphates, still leaves the anti-gg as the most favored conformation with the important difference that the probability of occurrence of the anti, gauche-trans (gt) is how substantially increased. This is dependent to a large extent on the sugar conformation and to a lesser extent on the base. Uracil and thymine show a greater probability for the anti-gt than cytosine. The syn conformation is considerably less likely and its occurrence is also dependent on the base type, cytosine showing a lesser tendency than uracil and thymine. For the syn base, the most favourec conformation for ψ is gt, since gg is sterically disallowed and tg is destabilized by electrostatic repulsive interactions between the 3′ and 5′-phosphate groups. Thus, there is a striking correlation between the glycoysl and the backbone C(4′)-C(5′) bond conformations. The rest of the bonds of the backbone are considerable less dependent on the glycosyl conformation. These studies reveal that in poly-ribopyrimidine nucletides the majority of the nucleotide residues are expected to occur in the anti-gg conformation.

    Notes: The effect of poly dispersity on the nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of samples of poly-γ-benzyl-L-glutamateein the helix-random coil transition is studied. In the transitionregion the α-CH proton resonance shows two peaks whose behavior does not change appreciably upon fractionation by gel permeation chromatography. Theoretical spectra were computed with both a polydispersity model of the transition and a model for slow nucleationof helix from completely random coil molecules. The results suggest that the double peak behavior in the nmr spectra results from a slow rate of helix nucleation rather than polydispersity.

    Notes: A conformational analysis has been carried out for the cyclic peptide antibiotic alamethicin. Unlikely structures were first eliminated by constructing van der Waals' energy maps for near-neighbor contacts and using these maps to generate forty complete alamethicin structures free of steric overlaps. The energies of the forty conformations were minimized; optimizing all dihedral angles first in sets and then simultaneously, to give a family of five low-energy structures. In the conformation of lowest energy three of the seven α-amino isobutyric acid residues occur in a six-residue α-helix and three at the two chain reversals. Judged by the change in conformational energy as a function of the change in dihedral angle, the flexibility of the chain is determined by both the type of peptide unit and its position in the molecule.The model has features consistent with reported circular dichorism and surface balance measurements and has two polar centers separated by a lipophilic region. It does not contain the large central pore required by some theories for the action of alamethicin on cell membrances. It therefore probably acts by altering membrance structres rather than by shuttling ions through a pore in the membrance.

    Notes: The conformation and packing scheme for guanosine-3′, 5′-cytidine monophosphate, GpC, were computed by minimizing the classical potential energy. The lowest energy conformation of the isolated molecule had dihedral angles in the range of helical RNA's and the sugar pucker was C3′ endo. This was used as the starting conformation in a packing search over orientation space, the dihedral angles being flexible in this step also. The packing search was restricted by constraints from our x-ray data, namely, (1) the dimensions of the monoclinic unit cell and its pseudo-C2 symmetry (the real space group is P21), (2) the location of the phosphorous atom, and (3) the orientation of the bases. In addition, a geometric function was devised to impose Watson-Crick base pairing. Thus, a trial structure could be sought without explicit inclusion of intermolecular potentials. An interactive computer graphics system was used for visualizing the calculated structures.The packing searches yielded two lowest energy schemes in which the molecules had the same conformation (similar to double-helical RNA) but different orientations within the unit cell. One of these was refined by standard x-ray methods to a discrepancy index of 14.4% in the C2 pseudocell. This served as the starting structure for the subsequent refinement in the real P21 cell.5

    Notes: A model for the hydration behavior of human stratum corneum has been developed from measurements on in vitro samples isolated in a manner which minimized tissue treatment and trauma. Water sorption/desorption rate measurements as a function of water activity, temperature, and tissue integrity are reported. These data, together with thermodynamic data (infrared and nmr results reported earlier) are consistent with a model in which rapidly sorbed/desorbed water (ca. 0.5 mg water/mg stratum corneum) is associated with (“bound” by) the tissue, while slowly sorbed/desorbed “free” water (up to 12 mg water/mg stratum corneum) is kinetically restricted and probably intracellular in location. Both equilibrium water binding and desorption kinetic data suggest structural changes of this cellular water barrier upon hydration. Evidence for hysteresis in water sorption isotherms (reported by others) could not be reproduced.

    Notes: Poly(ortho-, meta-, and para-γ-nitrobenzyl-L-glutamates) were studied by circular dichroism (CD) and optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) in two helicogenic solvents, hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) and dichloroethane (EDC), and two non-helicogenic solvents, dichloracetic acid (DCA) and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). The corresponding glutamates were also studied in DCA and TFA. The symmetric nitrobenzylic chromophore is optically active when the polymers are in solution in DCA and TFA. The corresponding glutamates are also optically active under the same conditions. Thus, it was not possible to explain the origin of the optical activity of the side-chain chromophore when the polymer is in solution in a helicogenic solvent. Nevertheless, from a side-chain dichroic band, a helix-coil transition curve was determined and the stability of each poly(γ-nitrobenzyl-L-glutamate) given; this stability depends on the position of the nitro substituent on the aromatic ring.

    Notes: Sedimentation constant and intrinsic viscosity were measured on purified tropocollagens extracted from earthworm-cuticle and lathyritic ratskin. A cartesian diver viscometer was used to make viscosity measurements at small shear stress and to avoid the effects of surface forces. By comparing the experimental data with the hydrodynamic theories of wormlike-coil of Ullman a value of 1300 Å has been assigned for the persistence length of these tropocollagens. Other factors which may affect the estimate are discussed.

    Notes: The CD spectra of DNA from various sources (T2; T4; Cd; Escherichia coli; calf thymus; Streptomyces chrysomalis) were investigated. A new band Δε210 in the CD spectra of glucosylated DNA of the T even phages was found. The temperature dependence of the CD spectra of DNA was obtained over a wide range of temperatures, including those of the helix-coil transition.The band Δε275 for all DNAs does not appreciably change in the range of the helix-coil transition. The monotonic increase of this band before melting, and its decrease after melting is observed with an increase in temperature.The amplitude of the CD band Δε245 for all the DNAs studied and Δε210 (glucosylated DNA) parallels the change of E260 absorbance.

    Notes: By analyzing the effect of urea and guanidine hydrochloride on the circular dichroism of many polypeptides and proteins, it is concluded that under conditions of high concentration of the perturbant and at low temperatures the resultant state approached is that of a local extended helix structure instead of a completely random coil. Intensification by urea and guanidine hydrochloride of the circular dichroism bands of poly-L-proline II leads to the proof that the mechanism of interaction of urea and guanidine hydrochloride with proteins is through hydrogen bonding to the backbone carbonyl group.

    Notes: The interactions between chondroitin-6-sulfate (chondroitin sulfate C) and poly-L-lysine have been studied as models for investigation of possible complex formation between fibrous proteins and mucopolysaccharides. Results obtained using circular dichroism spectroscopy show that poly-L-lysine adopts the α-helical conformation in dilute aqueous salt solution at pH 7 when mixed with chondroitin-6-sulfate, rather than the “charged-coil” observed in the absence of this mucopolysaccharide. This conformation-directing interaction is at a maximum when the ratio of lysine to disaccharide residues is 1 : 1. Changes in the CD spectrum of a 1 : 1 mixture following increase in the salt concentration, or addition of non-polar solvents, indicate that the interaction is ionic in nature. No such effects are observed for non-sulfated mucopolysaccharides mixed with poly-L-lysine, suggesting that, for chondroitin-6-sulfate, it is the sulfate groups rather than the carboxyls which interact with the amine groups of the polypeptide.Elevation of the temperature leads to disruption of the interactions between the polypeptide and polysaccharide species. A sharp melting transition occurs at 47.0 ± 1.0°C, when the poly-L-lysine reverts to the “charged-coil” conformation. The sharp transition suggests that regular ionic bonds are formed between the polypeptide and polysaccharide. These results suggest that a conformation-directing interaction may occur between sulfated mucopolysaccharides and the polar regions of collagen and other fibrous proteins.

    Notes: A coupling constant-dihedral angle correlation for the H—Cα—Cβ—H system of amino acid residues in peptides has been derived from a set of model compounds covering the full range of dihedral angles. The expression obtained, J = 11.0 cos2 θ -1.4 cos θ + 1.6 sin2θ, is close to those already used in pmr studies of peptide conformation, and provides a firmer foundation for them. A factor limiting the precision of this and other “Karplus relations” is illustrated.

    Notes: The ultraviolet absorption, linear dichroism, circular dichroism, and oriented circular dichroism of collagen are reported and the spectra are resolved into a self-consistent set of bands in accord with exciton theory. The parallel band at 200 nm has 40% of the π → π* intensity; the perpendicular band is placed at 189 nm yielding a splitting of 2700 cm-1. The circular dichroism is resolved into two Gaussians at λ∥ and λτ (rotational strengths +14 × 10-40 and -32 × 10-40 esu2. cm2) plus a large non-Gaussian (“helix”) band with ampplitude -25,000° at 201 nm. These data appear to be in reasonably good accord with recent calculations.Measurements of the absorption, linear dichroism and circular dichroism of polyproline I and II are also reported and are resolved into their component bands. Polyproline I is in good accord with exciton theory, whereas polyproline II remains unsatisfactory.

    Notes: The synthesis is described of the protected hexadecapeptide corresponding to the C-terminal sequence 93-108 of baker's yeast iso-I-cytochrome c. The cysteine residue in position 107 of the natural sequence has been substituted by a threonine residue. The rationale of this substitution as well as the synthetic route to the preparation of the hexadecapeptide derivative is discussed.

    Notes: The geometrical properties of collagen molecules place certain restrictions on possible three-dimensional packing models. With certain reasonable assumptions involving the macromolecular structure of collagen, a model for the surface topography of the monomeric unit is developed and two possible models for molecular packing, one hexagonal and the other non-hexagonal, are inferred. The non-hexagonal packing model is identical to the pentagonal unit fibril first postulated by J. W. Smith on different grounds, while the hexagonal model is one of three previously suggested by us on more general assumptions. The two models are compared to available data on collagen packing, and the bulk of the evidence would seem to favor the pentagonal model.

    Notes: Zones of T2 DNA were sedimented through uniform solutions of T7 DNA to determine if the smaller DNA molecules would become entangled in the larger. No entanglement could be demonstrated even at high DNA concentrations. It is suggested that molecular entanglement is not responsible for the sudden loss of DNA from solution which occurs in high centrifugal fields. This communication also includes observations on the effects of rotor speed on the sedimentation behavior of DNA in high centrifugal fields, distortion of zone shape at high concentrations, and hydrodynamic interactions between DNA and MS2 bacteriophage particles.

    Notes: A new method is proposed for determining chemical rate contants in dimerization reactions of globular proteins. Light scattering from a solution of charged macromolecules in and applied electric field gives a series of bands whose widths can be used to deduce the reaction rate contants. This method should be applicable to other types of peactions. First order reactions are also considered.

    Notes: Measurements of light scatting, sedimentation equilibrium, sedimentation velocity, and viscosity were carried out on fractions of native amylose in dimethylsulfoxide at 25°C. The data for statistical radius as a function of weight-average molecular weight Mw suggested a stiff nature of this biopolymer in the solvent studied when interpreted in terms of Kirste's recent calculations with a stiff chain model. The data for sedimentation coefficient were consistent with this suggestion, and when analyzed in terms of the theory Hearst and Stockmayer for wormlike chain, a value of 233 Å2 was obtainedd for a/λ, where a is the length of a monomer unit projected on the chain axis and (2λ)-1is the persistence length of the wormlike chain. The intrinsic viscosity data gave a high a value as 0.91 for the exoponent in the Houwink-Mark-Sakuarada equation, in Substantial agreement with Cowie's prenious work.We attempted to interpret these data by use of the Eizner-Ptitsyn equation for wormlike chains, with omission of the free-drainage term and introduction of the a/λ value obtained from sedimentation data. It was found that, except in the region of Mw above one million, the observed values were fitted well by the E-P theory with a = 1.4 Å and (2λ)-1 = 87 Å. The disagreement in the high-molecular-weight region was tentatively attributed to excluded volume effect. The a value obtained suggests that the molecular conformation of amylose in dimethylsulfoxide is predominantly helical, in contrast to that of the same polymer in aqueous solutions of simple electrolyte. It was also found that a similar value of a was derived from our data for the second virial coefficient and partial specific volume if the molecule was assumed to be essentially rodlike.

    Notes: Melting curves of tRNAfMet and two fragments derived from this molecule by limited ribonuclease T1 digestion (i.e., the anticodon arm and loop [K fragment] and the larger fragment representing three-fourths of the tRNA chain from the 3′ terminus including two potential limbs of the cloverleaf structure [L fragment]) are presented. The profiles observed are consistent with the presence of base paired structures in all those molecules. At low salt concentration (0.02M Na+) the stabilities of these molecules measured by the apparent midpoints of the denaturation profiles are in the order K 〉 L 〉 tRNA. The relative stabilities approach each other at 0.2M Na+ (the tRNA profile being biphasic), while at high salt (2M) the L fragment seems to be more stable than either K or t-RNA fMet. Estimation of the enthalpy of denaturing the K structure in 0.02M Na+ gives a value of 40 ± 3 kcal/mole corresponding to an enthalpy per effective G.C. base pair disrupted of 10 ± 1 kcal/mole.

    Notes: The far ultraviolet absorptions of aliphatic amino acids such as glycine, alanine, aminobutyric acid, valine, and leucine were measured with their solid thin films down to 120 nm. Four absorption bands arising from the carboxyl group were observed in the 200-140 nm region. It was found that the band positions and intensities vary systematically according to the number of carbon atoms in the aliphatic side chain. This result may be interpreted as a phenomenon similar to the hyper-and hypochromisms of aliphatic homopolypeptides in far ultraviolet region.

    Notes: Studies of the d. c. conductive behavior of solid gels of DNA under high vacuum have shown that a reproducible energy gap of 2.4 eV and a photoelectric effect may be obtained following extensive evacuation procedures. Admission of air for short periods has a reversible effect on this photoelectirc effect and semiconductive behavior. After prolonged illumination in air the sample becomes permanently affected and will not reproduce the photoelectric effect or give rise to a semiconduction energy gap of 2.4 eV but give rise to a permanently lower energy gap of 1.6 eV. The effect of ultraviolet irradiation on the thermal denaturation of DNA in the presence of six aromatic hydrocarbons has been examined in order to determine the extent to which the presence of the hydrocarbon protects the DNA against ultraviolet damage.

    Notes: The double-helical complex formed from m6m9A and poly U has been characterized by circular dichroism and u.v. spectrophotometry. The circular dichroism of the complex is similar to that of the double-helical poly A poly U complex both in shape and in magnitude and thus indicates a quite similar structure. The double Helix-coil transition has been studied at various nucleotide concentrations and at three different ionic strengths. As expected for the binding of a base to a polymer, the Helix-coil transition is shifted to higher temperatures by increasing nucleotide concentrations, but is not affected by changes of the ionic strength. The melting curves are analyzed according to a linear Ising model taking the stacking of the monomers into account. At 0°C the equilibrium constant for nucleation is found to be 2-5 M-1 and that for chain growth is 500 M-1. The enthalpy change associated with chain growth is -11.2 ± 1 kcal M-1.

    Notes: A molecular field theory, taking into account long-range electrostatic forces is used to study helix-coil transitions of polynucleotides. The theory predicts the existence of hysteresis when the electrostatic interaction parameter is large compared to the thermal energy. The theory is applied to the acid-base titration of poly(A)·2 poly(U).

    Notes: Helix-coil transition of polypeptides in solution involves two elementary processes: unfolding of an α-helical polypeptide chain and interaction of the unfolded chain with solvent molecules which are capable of forming hydrogen bonds. Optical rotation data for poly(β-benzyl L-aspartate) in mixtures of dichloroacetic acid and carbon tetrachloride are analyzed according to the procedure developed by Sayama et al., who explicitly took these processes into theoretical account; and the enthalpy changes, ΔH0 = -650 ± 200 cal/mole and ΔHa = -5.2 ± 1.6 kcal/mole. The latter value is favorably compared with heats of association (per hydrogen bond) of various amides and lactams in CCl4. There is excellent agreement with -5.15 kcal/mole for δ-valerolactam in CCl4. In analogy with amides in non-polar solvents, the difference between ΔH0 and ΔHa may be attributed to the fact that the former is associated with intramolecular hydrogen bonding, whereas the latter is associated with intermolecular hydrogen bonding.

    Notes: The coil to helix conformational transitions undergone by poly-γ-benzyl-L-glutamate in solutions of haloacetic acids and various cosolvents were studied by means of proton magnetic resonance. The results indicate a very small solvent dependence of the α-CH Helix-coil chemical shift difference. The helical stabilities of PBLG in different solvent mixtures were interpreted in terms of modifications of the “solvent structure.”

    Notes: By X-ray diffraction method, an originally almost dry oriented fiber of sodium poly-L-glutamate was shown to undergo transconformation from β-structure to α-helices when its water content was gradually increased by equilibrating with the helium gas of 64% relative humidity. The observation is correlated to the corresponding infrared spectroscopical study made by Blout et al.
