    Notes: Summary When glucose and fructose are fermented separately, the uptake profiles indicate that both sugars are utilized at similar rates. However, when fermentations are conducted in media containing an equal concentration of glucose and fructose, glucose is utilized at approximately twice the rate of fructose. The preferential uptake of glucose also occurred when sucrose, which was first rapidly hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose by the action of the enzyme invertase, was employed as a substrate. Similar results were observed in the fermentation of brewer's wort and wort containing 30% sucrose and 30% glucose as adjuncts. In addition, the high levels of glucose in the wort exerted severe catabolite repression on maltose utilization in theSaccharmyces uvarum (carlsbergensis) brewing strain. Kinetic analysis of glucose and fructose uptake inSaccharomyces cerevisiae revealed aK m of 1.6 mM for glucose and 20 mM for fructose. Thus, the yeast strain has a higher affinity for glucose than fructose. Growth on glucose or fructose had no repressible effect on the uptake of either sugar. In addition, glucose inhibited fructose uptake by 60% and likewise fructose inhibited, glucose uptake by 40%. These results indicate that glucose and fructose share the same membrane transport components.

    Notes: Summary The rate of production ofl-phenylacetyl carbinol bySaccharomyces cerevisiae in reaction mixtures containing benzaldehyde with sucrose or pyruvate as cosubstrate was investigated in short 1 h incubations. The effect of yeast dose rate, sucrose and benzaldehyde concentration and pH on the rate of reaction was determined. Maximum biotransformation rates were obtained with concentrations of benzaldehyde, sucrose and yeast of 6 g, 40 g and 60 g/l, respectively. Negligible biotransformation rates were observed at a concentration of 8 g/l benzaldehyde. The reaction had a pH optimum of 4.0–4.5. Rates of bioconversion of benzaldehyde and selected substituted aromatic aldehydes using both sucrose and sodium pyruvate as cosubstrate were compared. The rate of aromatic alcohol production was much higher when sucrose was used rather than pyruvate.o-Tolualdehyde and 1-chlorobenzaldehyde were poor substrates for aromatic carbinol formation although the latter produced significant aromatic alcohol in sucrose-containing media. Yields of 2.74 and 3.80 g/l phenylacetyl carbinol were produced from sucrose and pyruvate, respectively, in a 1 h reaction period.

    Notes: Summary Manganese accumulation was studied by room-temperature electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy inSaccharomyces cerevisiae grown in the presence of increasing amounts of MnSO4. Mn2+ retention was nearly linear in intact cells for fractions related to both low-molecular-mass and macromolecular complexes (‘free’ and ‘bound’ Mn2+, respectively). A deviation from linearity was observed in cell extracts between the control value and 0.1 mM Mn2+, indicating more efficient accumulation at low Mn2+ concentrations. The difference in slopes between the two straight lines describing Mn2+ retention at concentrations lower and higher than 0.1 mM, respectively, was quite large for the free Mn2+ fraction. Furthermore it was unaffected by subsequent dialyses of the extracts, showing stable retention in the form of low-molecular-mass complexes. In contrast, the slope of the line describing retention of ‘bound’ Mn2+ at concentrations higher than 0.1 mM became less steep after subsequent dialyses of the cell extracts. This result indicates that the macromolecule-bound Mn2+ was essentially associated with particulate structures. In contrast to Cu2+, Mn2+ had no effect on the major enzyme activities involved in oxygen metabolism except for a slight increase of cyanide-resistant Mn-superoxide dismutase activity, due to dialyzable Mn2+ complexes.

    Notes: Summary The release of intact CU(I)8-thionein from copper-resistant copper-loaded yeast cells, strain X 2180-1Aa, has been shown. This copper(I)-thiolate-rich protein was characterized and compared with the chemical and physicochemical properties of intracellular yeast Cu-thionein. The same molecular mass and stoichiometry of 8 mol copper atoms/mol protein was found. No detectable difference between the Cu-thioneins was seen in luminescence emission, electronic absorption in the ultraviolet region, chiroptical data or amino acid composition. The importance of stable Cu(I)-thiolates in Cu-thionein as a safe vehicle for transporting copper in a non-reactive manner is confirmed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des rats femelles reçoivent du45Ca ou du32P au 13ème et 18ème jour de la grossesse. Les coupes sériées des têtes de foetus sont étudiées par autoradiographie et par diverses méthodes histologiques pour déterminer la calcification. La détection la plus précoce de45Ca s'observe simultanément comme une réaction positive pour le calcium avec une des méthodes histologiques utilisées.32P est en évidence par les méthodes autoradiographiques un peu plus tard que le45Ca et sa présence coincide avec la réaction positive la plus précoce observée avec les autres méthodes histologiques utilisées. Les os de ces têtes foetales commencent à se calcifier selon un mode particulier commençant par la mandibule, puis l'os frontal et le maxillaire supérieur, suivis par les os nasaux, pariétaux et interpariétaux.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Weibliche Ratten erhielten45Ca und32P zwischen dem 13.–18. Tag der Schwangerschaft. Zur Ermittlung der Verkalkung wurden Serienschnitte der Köpfe ihrer Feten mittels Autoradiographie sowie durch verschiedene histologische Methoden untersucht. Das erste Auftreten von45Ca war ebenfalls von einer positiven Calciumreaktion mittels einer der verwendeten histologischen Methoden begleitet.32P wurde in der Autoradiographie erst etwas später als45Ca festgestellt und dessen Nachweis deckte sich mit den ersten positiven Reaktonen aller anderen verwendeten histologischen Methoden. Die Knochen in diesen Fetusköpfen begannen in einer bestimmten Sequenz zu verkalken: zuerst der Unterkiefer, dann das Stirnbein und der Oberkiefer, dann das Nasenbein, die Parietal- und Interparietalknochen.
    Notes: Abstract Female rats were given45Ca or32P from 13 to 18 days of pegnancy. Serial sections from the heads of their fetuses were studied by autoradiography, as well as by several histological methods for assessing calcification. The earliest detection of45calcium occured at the same time as a positive reaction for calcium with one of the histological methods used.32P was not detectable by autoradiographic methods until somewhat later than45Ca, and its presence coincided with the earliest positive reaction with all of the other histological methods employed. The bones in these fetal heads began to calcify in a partcular sequence, the mandible first, then the frontal bone and maxilla, followed by the nasal, parietal and interparietal bones.

    Notes: Summary The nondisjunction of artificial yeast minichromosomes (2:0 segregation events) during mitosis is accompanied by the appearance of cells containing more than one copy of the mini-chromosome. A mathematical simulation of this process has demonstrated that under certain conditions, a nondisjunction of the minichromosomes may result in their accumulation in a considerable portion of the cell population. An increase in the copy number of artificial minichromosomes as a result of impaired segregation has been used to develop a new experimental procedure for directly selecting yeast mutants showing an impaired segregation of artificial minichromosomes during mitosis. Four new genes, AMC1, AMC2, AMC3, and AMC4, which control the segregation of artificial minichromosomes in mitosis, have been identified (AMC-3 and AMC4 are mapped to chromosome IV and VII, respectively). Mutations in the genes AMC1–AMC4 also affect the mitotic transmission of natural chromosomes. We suggest that the genes AMC1, AMC2, AMC3, and AMC4 control the segregation of natural chromosomes in yeast.

    Notes: Summary In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, diuron blocks the respiration pathway at the level of the bc1 complex. Nuclear diuron-resistant mutations which confer in vitro resistance to mitochondrial NADH oxidase have been identified. Five mutations were found to be clustered at two distinct nuclear loci, DIU3 and DIU4. The distance between the two loci was estimated to be about 36.7 cM. These loci do not appear to be centromere-linked and did not show a linkage to any of the genes coding for bc1 complex subunits. DIU3 and DIU4 loci might, therefore, code for other components of the respiratory chain.

    Notes: Summary We deleted most of the pyruvate decarboxylase structural gene PDC1 from the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Surprisingly, mutants carrying this deletion allele showed a completely different phenotype than previously described point mutations. They were able to ferment glucose and their specific pyruvate decarboxylase activity was only reduced to 45% of the wild type level. Northern blot analysis revealed that a sequence in the yeast genome homologous to PDC1 and formerly designated as a possible pseudogene is expressed and may code for a different but closely related pyruvate decarboxylase. The products of the two PDC genes seem to form hybrid oligomers, however both homooligomers have enzyme activity. Thus, the product of the PDC1 gene is not absolutely neccessary for glucose fermentation in yeast.

    Notes: Summary A YEp chimaeric plasmid carrying SMR1 and URA3 genetic markers was integrated into chromosome XIII at the ilv2-Δ1 locus in a [cir°] background. The 1.5 kb BglII deletion of ilv2-Δ1 allowed the clear identification of an integrant structure which consisted of a direct tandem duplication (TD) of the chimaeric plasmid. Within the integrant structure, a single copy of the plasmid sequence was flanked by a direct duplication of the 2μm site-specific recombinase (FLP) recognition target (FRT). Isogenic [cir°] and [cir +] diploids formed by crossing the [cir°] TD strain to complementary haploids were analyzed for plasmid marker loss and chromosomal DNA alterations in the presence and absence of selection pressure for the URA3 and SMR1 plasmid borne markers. [cir°] diploids showed no plasmid marker loss and maintained the TD structure. In the absence of selection pressure, the [cir +] diploid underwent FLP-FRT mediated unequal interchromatid recombination, resulting in the breakage-fusion-bridge cycle and homozygotization of chromosome XIII (Rank et al. 1988). Maintenance of selection pressure for the centromere distal plasmid URA3 marker selected against FLP-FRT interchromatid recombinants so that the effects of site specific recombinase on intrachromatid recombination could be evaluated. Intrachromatid recombination at the directly duplicated FRT sites of the TD structure resulted in the loss of a diagnostic internal fragment. These results show that in the presence of FLP, FRT sites separated by up to 13.3 kb of chromosomal DNA function as substrates for intra and interchromatid recombination.

    Notes: Summary In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, diuron blocks the respiratory pathway at the level of the bc1 complex. Two mitochondrially inherited loci, DIU1 and DIU2, located in the cytochrome b gene, and two nuclearly inherited loci, DIU3 and DIU4, have previously been identified. The present work genetically characterizes two double mutants. One mutant, Diu-217, carries two nuclearly inherited mutations, diu3-217a and diu-217b; the second mutant, Diu-783, carries the previously described nuclear mutation diu3-783 and a mitochondrial mutation diu2-783. Each mutation, independent of its location, exhibits a weak diuron resistance. The joint expression of two or three mutations leads to a cumulative or a cooperative enhanced diuron-resistant phenotype.

    Notes: Summary A polypeptide chain-terminating mutation (M5631) previously has been shown to be a +1T insertion in the yeast mitochondrial gene oxi1, coding for subunit II of the cytochrome c oxidase. A spontaneously arisen frameshift suppressor (mfs-1) that is mitochondrially inherited suppresses this mutation to a considerable extent. The suppressor mutation was mapped by genetic and molecular analyses in the mitochondrial tRNASer-var1 region of the mitochondrial genome of the yeast S. cerevisiae. Genetic analyses show that the suppressor mfs-1 does not suppress other known mitochondrial frameshift mutations, or missense and nonsense mutations.

    Notes: Summary Most ribosomal protein (rp-)genes in yeast are preceded by conserved sequence motifs that act as upstream transcription-activating sites (RPG box). These sequence elements have previously been shown to represent specific binding sites for a protein factor, TUF. Comparison of the various nucleotide elements identified so far indicates a remarkably high degree of variation in the respective sequences. On the other hand, a methylation interference study performed with one RPG box revealed close contact points with the TUF protein along the entire sequence. To investigate the sequence requirements of the RPG box, we inserted synthetic oligonucleotides that differed from the general consensus sequence ACACCCATACATTT at single positions into a deletion mutant of the L25 promoter that lacked its natural RPG elements. Transcription activity was estimated by Northern analyses of the cellular level of L25-galK hybrid transcripts. The results show that in the 3′ part of this sequence element single substitutions are allowed at all positions, in the 5′ part, however, the nucleotide requirements appear to be more stringent. In particular, the invariant C at position 5 of the consensus sequence is absolutely necessary for its enhancer function.

    Notes: Summary Sequence analysis was used to define the repeat unit that constitutes the mitochondrial genome of a petite (rho −) mutant of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This mutant has retained and amplified in tandem a 2,547 by segment encompassing the second exon of the oxi3 gene excised from wild-type mtDNA between two direct repeats of 11 nucleotides. The identity of the mtDNA segment retained in this petite has recently been questioned (van der Veen et al., 1988). The results presented here confirm the identity of this mtDNA segment to be that determined previously by restriction mapping (Carignani et al., 1983).

    Notes: Summary When the gene dosage for the primary rRNA-binding ribosomal protein L25 in yeast cells was raised about 50-fold, the level of mature L25 transcripts was found to increase almost proportionally. The plasmid-derived L25 transcripts were structurally indistinguishable from their genomic counterparts, freely entered polysomes in vivo and were fully translatable in a heterologous in vitro system. Nevertheless, pulse-labelling for periods varying from 3–20 min did not reveal a significant elevation of the intracellular level of L25 protein. When pulse-times were decreased to 10–45 s, however, we did detect a substantial over production of L25. We conclude that, despite the strong RNA-binding capacity of the protein, accumulation of L25 is not controlled by an autogenous (pre-)mRNA-targeted mechanism similar to that operating in bacteria, but rather by extremely rapid degradation of excess protein produced.

    Notes: Summary Using the gel retardation assay we have identified a protein that can specifically bind to a site within the enhancer of the 37S pre-ribosomal RNA operon in yeast, as well as to a site 210 by upstream of the site of transcription initiation of this operon. This protein (RBP1) has been partially purified by means of heparin-agarose chromatography and protects 20 by in the rDNA enhancer, and 25 by in the initiation region, against DNase I in an in vitro footprinting assay. In vivo footprinting studies using methylation of intact yeast cells with dimethylsulphate, indicate that the same binding sites are occupied in vivo as well. Deletions that abolish binding of RBP1 to the enhancer in vitro, as well as linker insertions into the RBP1 binding site in the initiation region that strongly diminish in vitro binding of RBP1, have no effect whatsoever on the enhancement of rDNA transcription in vivo. This was studied by deletion/mutation of the RBP1 binding site in vitro in an artificial ribosomal minigene and measuring the effect on the minigene transcription in vivo in yeast cells, transformed with the deleted/mutated minigenes. It can therefore be concluded that binding of RBP1 is not an important parameter in the functioning of the rDNA enhancer in yeast. Using the same minigene system we also show that RBP1 is not involved in termination of RNA polymerase I (PolI) transcription at the main terminator T2.

    Notes: Summary Ten dominant omnipotent suppressors of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which were previously shown to be different from SUP46, have been examined. Nine are mapped in a region between lys5 and cyh2 on the left arm of chromosome VII. These suppressors, like SUP46, manifest sensitivity to increased temperature and the antibiotics paromomycin and hygromycin B. In addition, they have an identical action spectrum. These results strongly suggest that they are allelic to each other and they are designated SUP138. The tenth is mapped to a position between his1 and arg6 on the right arm of chromosome V. This suppressor, named SUP139, does not manifest temperature sensitivity nor antibiotic sensitivity. SUP139 and SUP138, which are clearly distinguished by means of action spectrum, act on much fewer nonsense mutations than SUP46. It is now clear that dominant omnipotent suppressors arising at a single locus are homogeneous and that their efficiency is locus-dependent. The order of efficiency is SUP46〉SUP138〉SUP139.

    Notes: Summary A method, using LiAc to yield competent cells, is described that increased the efficiency of genetic transformation of intact cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to more than 1 × 105 transformants per microgram of vector DNA and to 1.5% transformants per viable cell. The use of single stranded, or heat denaturated double stranded, nucleic acids as carrier resulted in about a 100 fold higher frequency of transformation with plasmids containing the 2μm origin of replication. Single stranded DNA seems to be responsible for the effect since M13 single stranded DNA, as well as RNA, was effective. Boiled carrier DNA did not yield any increased transformation efficiency using spheroplast formation to induce DNA uptake, indicating a difference in the mechanism of transformation with the two methods.

    Notes: Summary Four haploid yeast strains differing in proficiency for DNA repair were treated with cis- or transDDP. The wild type was least sensitive while the excision-deficient mutants rad1, rad2 and snm1exhibited higher sensitivities to either platinum compound. In all four strains tested cisDDP showed a two- to five-fold higher cytotoxicity than equimolar concentrations of transDDP. DNA interstrand cross-linking was caused by both agents in all strains. However, transDDP introduced more DNA cross-links at exposure times up to 6 h while cisDDP was the more active cross-linking agent at longer times. There was no clear-cut correlation of the number of DNA interstrand cross-links with survival. Formaldehyde-treated cells showed DNA with lower buoyant density due to proteinase K sensitive DNA-protein cross-linking; this effect was not observed after treatment with either platinum compound. Post-treatment incubation of wild-type cells exposed to cisDDP led to degradation of DNA by single and double-strand breaks, parallel with further increase of DNA interstrand cross-linking. DNA from transDDP-treated cells did not show extensive degradation although interstrand cross-links were lost during liquid holding.

    Notes: Summary We have identified an abundant cytoplasmic 7S RNA in crude extracts of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica. A cDNA probe was prepared from this RNA and used to screen a genomic library. The DNA sequence of a positive clone was determined and the end positions of the 7S RNA gene established by comparison with the sequence of the extremities of 7S RNA. This gene, designated SCR2, encodes a 270-nucleotide RNA that can be folded into a secondary structure similar to that of 7SL RNAs. This RNA is 94.4% homologous to a previously identified 7S RNA from this yeast, but is encoded by a separate gene with highly divergent flanking sequences.

    Notes: Summary Two Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes necessary for excision repair of UV damage in DNA, RAD1 and RAD2, were introduced individually, on a yeast shuttle vector, into seven Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutants — rads1, 2, 5, 13, 15,16 and 17. The presence of the cloned RAD1 gene did not affect survival of any of the S. pombe mutants. The RAD2 gene increased survival of S. pombe rad13 to near the wild-type level after UV irradiation and had no effect on any of the other mutants tested. S. pombe rad13 mutants are somewhat defective in removal of pyrimidine dimers so complementation by the S. cerevisiae RAD2 gene suggests that the genes may code for equivalent proteins in the two yeasts.

    Notes: Summary The isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase gene (ILS1) from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was cloned and sequenced. This gene was initially cloned because it cross-hybridizated to what is now presumed to be the isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase gene (cupC) from the protozoan Tetrahymena hhermophila. The ILS1 gene was determined to be 1,072 amino acids in length. A comparison with a recently published sequence of ILS1 1 from another laboratory (Englisch et al. 1987) was made and differences noted. Two promoter elements were detected, one for general amino acid control and one for constitutive transcription. A heat shock protein (hsp70) gene (probably SSA3) was found 237 by upstream from the ILS1 translation start site. The ILS1 amino acid sequence was compared to isoleucyl-tRNA synthetases from other organisms, as well as to valyl-, leucyl- and methionyl-tRNA synthetases. Regions of conservation between these enzymes were found.

The main evidence for this was that three “structural” mutations appeared to be alleles of the same gene, PDC1 (Schmitt and Zimmermann 1982). We report that one of these mutations (pdcl-30) is not allelic either to other pdc1 alleles or to pdc2 mutations and therefore is has been renamed pdc3-30 thus identifying a new gene, PDC3. We have cloned the PDC3 gene, it represents a unique sequence in the genome and targeted integration shows tight linkage to the PDC3 locus. However, the size, abundance and regulation of the PDC3 transcript suggest that it does not encode a second structural gene. Possible functions for the PDC3 gene product are discussed.

    Notes: Summary We have constructed a set of hybrid yeast Escherichia coli vectors which utilise the site specific recombination function of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae 2 μm plasmid to completely eliminate the bacterial moiety upon introduction into yeast. A number of these plasmids have been shown to exhibit high inheritable stability in both laboratory and industrial strains during non-selective growth. These plasmids are beneficial for the genetic modification of industrial yeast, particularly those used in the production of food and beverages, and are of benefit in the study of plasmid maintenance and heterologous gene expression.

    Notes: Summary A 17 kb region from near the right end of chromosome I of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was isolated on recombinant λ bacteriophages. This region contained the PH011 gene which was located only 3.4 kb from the right end of the chromosome. We found that this region also was repeated approximately 13 kb from the end of the chromosome VIII DNA molecule. The chromosome VIII sequence appears to be a previously unnamed acid phosphatase gene that we propose to call PH012. Thus, similar to the repeated SUC, MAL, X and Y' sequences, some members of the repeated acid phosphatase gene family also appear near the termini of yeast chromosomes.

    Notes: Summary We have analyzed the expression and function of the intron-encoded bI4 maturase when frame-shift mutations in the upstream exon alter the translational process. By constructing secondary cis-acting mutations within the b14 intron, we observed (1) that the bI4 maturase is still translated in the presence of the upstream mutation, albeit in very low amounts, and (2) that the limited amounts of bI4 maturase made under these conditions is no longer able to promote the splicing process of the aI4 intron. These observations, which further strengthen the maturase model, strongly suggest that bI4 maturase acts sequentially on the bI4 intron and then on the aI4 intron.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Telomere Binding Activity (TBA), an abundant protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, was identified by its ability to bind to telomeric poly(C1–3A) sequence motifs. The substrate specificity of TBA has been analyzed in order to determine whether the activity binds to a unique structure assumed by the irregularly repeating telomeric sequences or whether the activity recognizes and binds to subset of specific sequences found within the telomere repeat tracts. Deletion analysis and DNase I protection assays demonstrate that TBA binds specifically to two poly(C1–3A) sequences that differ by one nucleotide. The methylation of four guanine residues, located at identical relative positions within these two binding sequences, interferes with TBA binding to the substrates. A synthetic olignucleotide containing a single TBA binding site can function as a TBA binding substrate. The TBA binding site shares homology with the binding sites reported for the Repressor/Activator Protein 1 (RAP1), Translation Upshift Factor (TUF) and General Regulatory Factor (GRFI) transcription factors, and TBA binds directly to RAP1/TUF/GRFI substrate sequences. Yeast TBA preparations and the RAP1 gene product expressed in E. coli cells are both similarly sensitive to in vitro protease digestion. Affinity-purified TBA extracts include a protein indistinguishable from RAP1 in binding specificity, size, and antigenicity. The binding affinity of TBA for the two telomeric poly(C1–3A) binding sites is higher than its affinity for any of the other binding substrates used for its identification. In extracts of yeast spheroplasts prepared by incubation of yeast cells with Zymolyase, an altered, proteolyzed form, of TBA (TBA-S) is present. TBA-S has a faster mobility in gel retardation assays and SDS-PAGE gels, yet it retains the DNA binding properties of standard TBA preparations: it binds to RAP1/TUF/GRFI substrates with the same relative binding affinity and protects poly(C1–3A) tracts from DNase I digestion with a “footprint” identical to that of standard TBA preparations.

    Notes: Summary Sporulation-deficient mutants of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe were isolated from a homothallic strain mutagenized with ethyl methanesulfonate. Complementation tests defined two new genetic loci (spo19 and spo20) essential for ascospore formation, in addition to the 18 known spo loci (Bresch et al. 1968). A novel mapping procedure using random spore analysis prior to tetrad analysis allowed us to map 11 spo genes. Four genes (spo3, spo15, spo19 and spo20) were mapped on chromosome I, 6 genes (spo2, spo4, spoS, spo6, spo14 and spo18) on chromosome II and 1 gene (spo13) on chromosome III. Although there was no noticeable clustering of spo genes on the chromosomes, three pairs of linked genes (spo15-spo20, spo3-spo19 and spo2-spo18) were found.

    Notes: Summary The ribosomal RNA genes of Yarrowia lipolytica have been identified, both in restriction digests of total genomic DNA and in a pBR322 gene bank, by hybridisation with cloned Saccharomyces cerevisiae rDNA. The Y. lipolytica rDNA repeat unit is 8.9 kb in size and contains the genes for the 25S and 18S, but not the 5S, rRNA species. The number of copies of these repeat units is approx. 50 per haploid genome. Several clones were found which did not conform to the standard restriction map due to differences outside the coding region. It appears that there is either heterogeneity of the spacer sequence within a strain or that the Y. lipolytica rDNA genes may be present as a number of separate clusters within this yeast's genome.

    Notes: Summary The yeast CAN1 gene, thought to encode arginine permease, has found use in genetics as a selectable locus. We have sequenced the cloned CAN1 gene, which contains an open reading frame of 1770 nucleotides, encoding a polypeptide of calculated molecular weight 65,766. Disruption of this open reading frame largely abolishes CAN1 gene expression, while subcloned fragments of the open reading frame hybridize strand —specifically to a 2.3 kb yeast RNA message. The encoded protein has no leader signal sequence, and is highly hydrophobic, with a possible twelve membrane-spanning domains, several of which have the high hydrophobic moments seen in channel-forming or permease proteins. This protein structure is consistent with the CAN1 product being the plasma membrane arginine permease.

    Notes: Summary The respiratory deficient yeast nuclear mutant MK3 is defective in the synthesis of the mature transcripts of the mitochondrial COB and OX13 genes, which code for apocytochrome b and subunit I of cytochrome c oxidase, resp. Introns 3 and 4 of the COB transcript (bI3 and bI4) and intron 4 (aI4) of the OXI3 transcript can not be excised (Pillar et al. 1983a, b). When combined with mitochondrial genomes lacking introns bI1, bI2 and bI3, or lacking intron bI3 alone the mutant is respiratory competent. Thus, the non-excision of bI4 and aI4 turns out to be an indirect effect of the mutation. From a wild type yeast genebank a plasmid has been isolated with a 3.3 kb DNA insert, which complements the mutant. Subcloning experiments assigned the functional gene to a 1.6 kb HaeIII-Sau3A fragment. Hybridization experiments showed, that it is (i) a single copy gene, (ii) also present in strain D273-10B, containing the “short form” mitochondrial genome (lacking the COB introns bI1-bI3), and (iii) located on chromosome IX. The nuclear gene defective in mutant MK3, was named MRS1 (Mitochondrial RNA Splicing). The involvement of this nuclear gene in the excision of a single group I mitochondrial intron (bI3) of the COB transcript is discussed.

    Notes: Summary The RAD4 gene of yeast required for the incision step of DNA excision repair and the REV2 (= RAD5) gene involved in mutagenic DNA repair could not be isolated from genomic libraries propagated in E. coli regardless of copy number of the shuttle vector in yeast. Transformants with plasmids conferring UV resistance to a rad4-4 or a rev2-1 mutant were only recovered if yeast was transformed directly without previous amplification of the gene bank in E. coli. DNA preparations from these yeast clones yielded no transformants in E. coli but retransformation of yeast was possible. This lead to the isolation of a defective derivative of the rad4 complementing plasmid. The modified plasmid was now capable of transforming E. coli but still interfered significantly with its growth.

    Notes: Summary DNA methyltransferase activity is not normally found in yeast. To investigate the response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to the presence of methylated bases, we introduced the Bacillus subtilis SPR phage DNA-[cytosine-5] methyltransferase gene on the shuttle vector, YEp51. The methyltransferase gene was functionally expressed in yeast under the control of the inducible yeast GAL10 promoter. Following induction we observed a time-dependent methylation of yeast DNA in RAD + and rad2 mutant strains; the rad2 mutant is defective in excision-repair of UV-induced DNA damage. Analysis of restriction endonuclease digestion patterns revealed that the relative amount of methylated DNA was greater in the excision defective rad2 mutant than in the RAD + strain. These data indicate that the yeast excision-repair system is capable of recognizing and removing m5C residues.

    Notes: Summary Seven α-specific mutants specifically defective in sexual agglutinability were isolated. The other α mating functions exhibited by these mutants, designated sag mutants, such as the production of α pheromone and response to a mating pheromone, were normal. While the MATα sag1 cells did not agglutinate with wild-type a cells, the MATα sag1 cells did, indicating that the SAG1 gene is expressed only in α cells. The mutations were semi-dominant and fell into a single complementation group, SAG1, which was mapped near met3 on chromosome X. Complementation analysis showed that sag1 and aga1, the latter being a previously reported α-specific mutation, were mutations in the same gene.

    Notes: Summary Distributive disjunction is defined by first meiotic division segregation of either two nonhomologous chromosomes that lack homologous pairing partners, or of two homologous chromosomes that have failed to undergo crossing-over. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, plasmid minichromosomes, synthetic linear chromosomes and a fragment of a real chromosome have been observed to segregate from nonhomologous DNA species at the first meiotic divisions. Suggesting that this organism may have a distributive mechanism for chromosome segregation. However, it is not known whether intact chromosomes also participate in a distributive process. To determine whether intact, full length, S. cerevisiae chromosomes could segregate from nonhomologous chromosomal species, the meiotic behavior of an unpaired intact copy of chromosome I has been analyzed with respect to several centromere-containing circular plasmid minichromosomes. Strains monosomic or trisomic for chromosome I were transformed with centromere plasmids containing either homologous or nonhomologous inserts, sporulated, and analyzed genetically both for the presence of plasmid and for the number of copies of chromosome 1. Each plasmid segregated from an intact unpaired copy of chromosome I at the first meiotic division in a significant majority (63–93%) of the asci examined. These results suggest that intact chromosomes from S. cerevisiae are capable of distributive disjunction.

    Notes: Summary Gene SUC4 produced about four fold more invertase activity than did gene SUC5. However, these genes differ in only three positions located in the 5′ non-coding region. The difference in gene expression between SUC4 and SUC5 must be due to the G to A transition (position −497) and/or the C to T transition (position −460) in the upstream activator sequences. The sequence TACAAA present in SUC5 can play the same role than the TATAAA box of SUC4.

    Notes: Summary We have cloned and determined the complete nucleotide sequence of a RAS gene from the yeastSchizosaccharomyces pombe (SP-RAS). The putative RAS protein of 214 amino acids is encoded by two noncontiguous reading frames separated by an intron of 86 bp. The SP-RAS gene product shares extensive homology with the proteins of theSaccharomyces cerevisiae (SC),Dictyostelium, Drosophila, and human RAS genes in its N-terminal region but not in its C-terminal region. The extended C-terminal regions found in the SC-RAS genes have no counterpart in the SP-RAS gene. Thus the RAS genes of these two yeasts are structurally quite distinct. The SP-RAS sequence was expressed in vivo.

    Notes: Summary Only one or two layers of sieve cells of the previous year's phloem in lateral branches of Larix decidua persist as fully mature cells. Immature sieve cells or cambial derivatives that have not completed differentiation may also over-winter. Periclinal cell divisions of the vascular cambium were first observed by mid-April. During the short period of greatest cambium activity (mid-April to mid-May), the early phloem is laid down. Late phloem is formed over a much longer period, from mid-May to late September. Microautoradiography revealed that only mature sieve cells of the early phloem are involved in translocation of 14C assimilates in June. The fine structure of actively translocating sieve cells is described. The impact of structure on long-distance transport of assimilates is discussed.

    Notes: Summary The yeast communities from slime fluxes of three deciduous trees (Prosopis juliflora, Populus fremontii and Quercus emoryi) and the necroses of two cacti (Opuntia phaeacantha and Carnegiea gigantea) were surveyed in the region of Tucson, Arizona. In addition, the yeasts carried by dipterans associated with the fluxes or necroses (Drosophila carbonaria, D. brooksae, D. nigrospiracula, D. mettleri, and Aulacigaster leucopeza) were sampled. The results indicate that each host sampled had a distinct community of yeasts associated with it. The dipterans, which can act as vectors of the yeasts, deposited yeasts from other sources in addition to those found on their associated hosts. It is argued that host plant physiology is relatively more important than the activity of the vector in determining yeast community composition. Furthermore, the average number of yeast species per flux or necrosis is not different from the average number of yeast species per fly. It is hypothesized that the vector may affect the number of species per individual flux or not, and that the number is lower than the rot or necrosis could potentially support.

The single nuclear mutation, designated pma1 gives resistance towards diguanidines and several other positively charged compounds. The pma1 mutation also decreases plasma membrane ATPase activity and confers resistance of ATPase to vanadate. The pma1 locus is localized on chromose I at 5.3 map units from cyh1-C7 and at about 20.7 map units from the centromere. This new mutation is genetically and phenotypically different from the mutation cyh3 and cyh4 previously described (Johnston and Coddington 1983).

These features are similar to those observed in K. fragilis. β-Glucosidase activity in the transformed yeast was much higher than in K. fragilis. We attempted to ferment cellobiose with the transformed yeast: practically no cellobiose was consumed, growth and ethanol production were negligible.

    Notes: Abstract Immunological cross-reactivity between cell wall proteins obtained from two yeast genera (Candida tropicalis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is reported. Specific retention of two cell wall proteins from Saccharomyces cerevisiae by an immunoabsorbent column coupled with antibodies against phosphate binding protein 2 (PiBP2) from Candida tropicalis allowed to generate antibodies against the proteins from S. cerevisiae. These antibodies were effective in inhibiting phosphate uptake by S. cerevisiae cells. The proteins from S. cerevisiae displayed a phosphate binding activity which was inhibited in the presence of the forementioned antibodies. These results and the observation that the amount of these proteins in the shock fluid was dependent of the growth conditions (i.e., in the presence or in the absence of phosphate) support the idea that these proteins are involved in the high affinity phosphate transport system.

Detailed analysis of the degree of sexual agglutination was carried out; it showed that a greater number of genes are involved in the regulation of inducible sexual agglutination in strain H1-0 than previously assumed. Although dominancy of inducible phenotype over constitutive was confirmed, the effectiveness of one gene changing the constitutive phenotype to the inducible seemed to be somewhat low. Quantity per cell of agglutination substances responsible for sexual agglutination increased as the agglutination ability became greater.

    Notes: Abstract The relationship between the degree of aerobiosis, xylitol production and the initial two key enzymes of d-xylose metabolism were investigated in the yeasts Pichia stipitis, Candida shehatae and C. tenuis. Anoxic conditions severely curtailed growth and retarded ethanol productivity. This, together with the inverse relationship between xylitol accumulation and aeration level, suggested a degree of redox imbalance. The ratios of NADH- to NADPH-linked xylose reductase were similar in all three yeasts and essentially independent of the degree of aerobiosis, and thus did not correlate with their differing capacities for ethanol production, xylitol accumulation or growth under the different conditions of aerobiosis. Under anoxic conditions the enzyme activity of Pichia stipitis decreased significantly, which possibly contributed to its weaker anoxic fermentation of xylose compared to C. shehatae.

    Notes: Summary The influence of long daily photoperiods and of continuous darkness on the secretory activity of the subcommissural organ (SCO) and on the growth rate of Reissner's fibre (RF) in Rana esculenta was studied in winter. The amount of aldehyde-fuchsin (AF) positive material in the apical cell parts of the SCO is smaller in light-adapted than in darkness-adapted animals. Differences in incorporation rate of 35S-cysteine between the SCO of light-adapted and of darkness-adapted animals, however, are small. The conclusion must be that light/darkness conditions only slightly influence the secretory activity of the SCO cells of Rana esculenta. In agreement with this conclusion is the observation that RF grew only slightly faster in the light-adapted than in the darkness-adapted animals. Under the conditions used RF was completely renewed in about 3 to 4 days. Influences of temperature on the activity of the SCO have been observed.

    Notes: Summary The optic tracts and centres of optic terminals of Rana temporaria have been investigated with silver impregnation techniques after unilaterally cutting the optic nerve and autoradiographically after injection of a mixture of tritiated amino acids into the vitreous body of the left eye. The observations on the course of the optic tracts and on the optic terminals in the thalamus and optic tectum are to a great extent in agreement with those of other authors. The probability of a retino-preoptic pathway is supported by the detection of fibres running in dorsal direction in front of the place where the optic nerve penetrates the brain. In horizontal sections these fibres can be seen deviating from the optic tract, covering a short distance in frontal direction and then turning upward under an angle of about 90 degrees. They disappear between the ventral aldehyde-fuchsin positive cells of the preoptic nucleus. The ventral and median parts of the ipsilateral preoptic nucleus contain fragments of degenerated fibres. Autoradiographic data are also in favour of the presence of an ipsilateral retino-preoptic tract. After carefully counting the number of grains over left and right preoptic nucleus, it appeared that over the ventral and median parts of the left preoptic nucleus more grains occur than over the identical areas of the right one.

    Notes: Summary The influence of a long daily photoperiod and continuous darkness on the hypothalamo-hypophysial system of blinded frogs was studied. In the preoptic nucleus no difference could be observed between the two groups of blinded frogs neither in the amount of incorporated 35S-cysteine nor in the amount of aldehydefuchsin positive material nor in the nuclear volume of the secretory cells. These results were compared with those of an experiment with intact frogs kept simultaneously under the same environmental conditions. It appeared that the activity of the dark-treated blinded group was enhanced compared with the activity of the dark-treated intact group while the light-treated blinded frogs showed a decrease in activity compared with the similarly treated intact animals. Likewise the influence of a long daily photoperiod on the hypothalamo-hypophysial system of unilaterally blinded frogs was studied. The activity of the preoptic nucleus was lower on the side where the optic nerve had been cut than on the intact side. In the dorsal part of the preoptic nucleus a difference between the two sides could not be observed. The significance of these results is discussed with regards to a possible connection between retina and preoptic nucleus.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Während der sexuellen Entwicklung vonPlatynereis dumerilii steigt die Zahl der Neurone, die Merkmale einer sekretorischen Aktivität aufweisen, parallel zum Wachstum und zur Reifung der Keimzelle an. Die cytologische Differenzierung eines Neurons zur neurosekretorischen Zelle ist mit einer Steigerung der Synthese Cystin-haltigen Materials gegenüber konventionellen Neuronen gekoppelt. Neurosekretorische Zellen treten erstmals in Erscheinung, kurz bevor die Oocyten in die zweite Oogeniephase eintreten, während der die Vitellogenese abläuft. Aufgetragen gegen den Oocytendurchmesser ergibt die Zahl der Neurone, die sekretorisch aktiv werden und3H-Cystin inkorporieren, eine ansteigende Kurve. Die Kurve biegt auf ein Plateau, wenn die Oocyten eine kritische Größe erreichen. Diese Größe markiert jenes Entwicklungsstadium, von dem ab eine Enthirnung eine normale Reifung nicht mehr verhindert. Die Zahl synthetisch tätiger Neurone steight erneut an, wenn die Oocyten die kortikale Struktur des reifen Eies entwickeln. Das Maximum wird kurz vor der Metamorphose erreicht. Während der epitoken Umwandlung sinkt die synthetische Aktivität rasch ab, um im schwärmbereiten Tier gänzlich zum Stillstand zu kommen. In Tieren, die nach der kritischen Phase zur caudalen Regeneration veranlaßt werden, fällt die Zahl markierter neurosekretorischer Zellen auf ein Niveau ab, das für junge, „vorkritische“ Individuen charakteristisch ist. Entsprechend wird in jungen, vorkritischen Tieren, die erst wenige endokrine Neurone besitzen, die Differenzierung weiterer neurosekretorischer Zellen durch eine Regeneration nicht stimuliert. Der zeitliche Verlauf der synthetischen Aktivität im Zuge der Entwicklung und die durch eine Regeneration erzwungenen Veränderungen sind somit reziprok zur Aktivität des Gehirns in Bezug auf die Ausschüttung des Juvenilhormons. Die Hypothese wird zur Diskussion gestellt, die sinkende Produktion des Juvenilhormons werde von der steigenden Produktion eines antagonistischen neuroendokrinen Prinzips begleitet oder verursacht.
    Notes: Summary During sexual development ofPlatynereis dumerilii, the number of neurones exhibiting secretory activity rises in parallel with the growth and maturation of the germ cells. The cytological differentiation of neuroglandular properties is accompanied with an increased uptake of tritiated cystine. The first neurones developing the characteristics of secretory cells and incorporating cystine appear just before the oocytes enter the second growth phase which corresponds with vitellogenesis. When plotted against the oocyte diameter the number of labelled neurosecretory cells yields an ascending line, which becomes a plateau once the oocytes approach a critical size. This critical size defines the developmental stage beyond which decerebration does not prevent normal maturation. The neuronal synthetic activity rises again when the oocytes differentiate the cortical structure of ripe eggs. The curve displays its maximum slope at the onset of metamorphosis. During the epitokous transformation the synthetic activity decreases rapidly and is almost totally depressed when swarming is imminent. In animals induced to regenerate their posterior segments after they have passed the critical stage, the number of labelled neurosecretory cells becomes reduced to the precritical level. According to this, regeneration in young precritical animals containing only few endocrine neurones does not stimulate the development of further secretory neurones. Thus, the time course during maturation and the changes caused by regeneration are reciprocal to the activity of the brain with respect to the release of juvenile hormone. The question is thus raised as to whether the declining titer of juvenile hormone may be accompanied or caused by an increased production of an antagonistic principle related to maturation.

    Notes: Summary Thymic nurse cell complexes (TNC-c), isolated from mouse thymuses at 1 and 2 h after i.v. injection of 6-(3H)thymidine, were analyzed in autoradiographs of semithin serial sections with regard to their size and the distribution of labeled thymocytes in individual types of complexes. The total number of thymocytes per complex reflects the type of complex. In a parallel study, localization of labeled thymocytes within individual zones of thymic cortex was examined. Thymocyte division within complexes may yield sequential complex generations differing in number per complex. However, thymocytes within complexes differ from each other in division kinetics. Half of the thymocytes that had been labeled 1 h after injection divided within 2 h. The rapidly dividing fraction of thymocytes were distributed within small complexes containing 2–8 cells and corresponded to the distribution of labeled cells in the outer thymic cortex. The proportion of labeled cells within large complexes resembled the distribution of labeled cells in the deep cortex. The data support the view that microenvironmental factors within TNC-c are responsible for both inducing thymocytes to enter the cell cycle and the negative selection (cell death) of some thymocytes.

    Notes: Summary InRana esculenta the activity of the hypothalamo-hypophysial system has been investigated in intact and blinded animals, after removal of the frontal organ and after elimination of the whole pineal complex. The results on intact and blinded animals are practically the same as those found earlier inRana temporaria. Light increases the activity of the preoptic nucleus, blinding changes the difference between light- and darkness-treated intact animals. Compared with the intact animals the other two groups (without frontal organ and without pineal complex) show a marked increase in incorporation of35S-cysteine in the preoptic nucleus. A difference between the animals without frontal organ and those without pineal complex, however, can hardly be observed. It follows that the absence of the frontal organ has the same influence on the preoptic nucleus as elimination of the whole pineal complex. In intact animals the influence of the frontal organ on the preoptic nucleus consists of an inhibition of neurosecretory activity as well under light as under darkness conditions. The enhanced synthesis of labelled material in the preoptic nucleus after removal of the frontal organ, results in a transport along the hypothalamo-hypophysial tract mainly to the outer zone of the median eminence and not to the posterior lobe.

    Notes: Summary From the 5th day up to the end of 3rd week following local crushing of the frog ventricle myocardium, ca. 13% of myocyte nuclei, in the vicinity of the damaged zone, were labelled after a single 3H-thymidine (3HTdr) injection, and 30–50% of these were labelled after repeated 3HTdr administration. The number of myocyte mitoses was maximal (ca. 1.3%) at the beginning of the 3rd week. The reactive proliferation of myocytes was accompanied by their “partial dedifferentiation”. This involved the nuclear euchromatic rearrangement, increase in size of nuclei and nucleoli, accumulation of the sarcoplasm rich in free ribosomes and rough endoplasmic reticulum, hyperplasia of the Golgi apparatus, and the appearance of 80–100 Å in diameter cytofilaments. Electron microscope autoradiography has shown that all these changes may be more or less pronounced in myocytes incorporating 3HTdr. The myofibril ultrastructure was found to be unchanged during S phase. However, in the mitotically dividing myocytes, the majority of Z-disks were disintegrated resulting in progressive release of myofilament bundles. Both 3HTdr labelled and mitotic myocytes were anchored to the adjacent ones by desmosomes and intercalated disks. No free myoblasts were observed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Oogenese der Bienenkönigin (Apis mellifica) kann in 6 Stadien eingeteilt werden. Proteinsynthese und Dottereinlagerung in der Oocyte werden autoradiographisch und mittels Trypanblau-Vitalfärbung untersucht. Euplasmatische Proteinsynthesen finden in allen Eifollikeln bis zum frühen Stadium 5 statt. Vitellogenese-aktiv sind nur die Oogenese-Stadien 3 und 4. Die pinocytäre Einschleusung dotterpflichtiger Haemolymphproteine ins Ooplasma nimmt etwa 20 min in Anspruch. 10 min später sind kleinste neugebildete Dotterkugeln in der äußersten Oocytenperipherie zu erkennen. Aus ihnen werden binnen 1 $${\raise0.5ex\hbox{$\scriptstyle 1$}\kern-0.1em/\kern-0.15em\lower0.25ex\hbox{$\scriptstyle 2$}}$$ —2 h große Dotterschollen von ca. 20 μm φ. Die Vitellogenese-Phase eines einzelnen Follikels dauert insgesamt 3 Tage. Dotterschollen werden nur im Bereich des freien Follikelepithels gebildet. Sie wandern einzeln ins zentrale Ooplasma ein, wo unterschiedlich alte Schollen durchmischt abgelagert werden. Dotterfrei bleibt ein Euplasmahof, der den Vorderpol des Eies markiert. Im Ooplasma und in den Nährzellen erfolgt sicher keine Synthese von Dottermaterial. Ein Beitrag der Follikelepithelzellen zur Dotterbildung kann nicht vollständig ausgeschlossen werden. Das zeitliche und räumliche Muster der Dottereinlagerung wird diskutiert unter Berücksichtigung der Determination der Oocyten-Achsen und der Präformation von ooplasmatischen Kontrollzentren für die frühe Embryogenese.
    Notes: Summary Oogenesis in the honeybee queen (Apis mellifica) can be divided into 6 developmental stages. By autoradiography and vital staining with trypan blue protein synthesis and yolk incorporation into the oocyte were studied. Euplasmic protein synthesis occurs in all egg follicles up to the early stage 5. Only the stages 3 and 4 are active in vitellogenesis. The resorption of vitellogenic haemolymph proteins by pinocytosis needs about 20 min. 10 min later very small newly formed yolk globules can be recognized in the outermost periphery of the oocyte. After 1 $${\raise0.5ex\hbox{$\scriptstyle 1$}\kern-0.1em/\kern-0.15em\lower0.25ex\hbox{$\scriptstyle 2$}}$$ —2 hrs large yolk platelets of ca. 20 μm in diameter arise from them. The whole vitellogenesis of a single follicle lasts 3 days. Yolk globules are formed only in the area of the free follicle epithelium. They migrate separately into the central ooplasm where yolk platelets of different age are deposited in a mixed pattern. An euplasmic halo remains free of yolk thus marking the anterior pole of the egg. It is shown that no yolk material is synthesized in the ooplasm and in the trophocytes. A contribution of the follicle epithelium to yolk formation can not totally be excluded. The temporal and spatial pattern of yolk deposition is discussed. The determination of the oocyte axis and the preformed ooplasmic reaction centers for early embryogenesis are considered.

Tractus opticus) von Scardinius erythrophthalmus und Carassius carassius (cyprinidae, Telosteer) wurde autoradiographisch untersucht und mit dem Einbau von 3H-Histidin verglichen. 1. Intracranial appliziertes N-Ac-3H-Man wird im Tectum opticum in Glykoproteine und Ganglioside im Verhältnis von 2:1 eingebaut. 2. Die Synthese von Gangliosiden und Sialo-Glycoproteinen erfolgt im Nervengewebe im Gegensatz zu der von Proteinen ubiquitär, d. h. sowohl in den Perikaryen als auch in den Fasern. 3. Nach einseitiger intraocularer Applikation von N-Ac-3H-Man werden bereits nach 24 stündiger Inkorporationszeit ausschließlich die mit dem injizierten Auge zusammenhängenden Sehschichten (Stratum opticum) des kontralateralen Tectum opticum radioaktiv markiert. Im Zusammenhang mit ergänzenden biochemischen Analysen ergibt sich, daß die Radioaktivität niedermolekularer Aminozucker mit dem schnellen axonalen Transport (〉40 mm/d) zum Zwecke einer peripheren Gangliosid-Synthese im Tractus opticus proximo-distal verlagert wird.
    Notes: Summary The incorporation of intra-cranially and intra-ocularly injected (N-Ac-3H-Man) and 3H-histidine into the optic systems (optic tectum and optic tract) of Scardinius erythrophthalmus and Carassius carassius was investigated by means of autoradiography. 1. N-Ac-3H-Man injected intra-cranially, is incorporated into gangliosides and glycorproteins in a ratio of 1:2 in the optic tectum. 2. In nervous tissue gangliosides and sialo-glycoproteins are labeled ubiquitously, i.e. in the perikarya as well as in the fibers. 3. Following an intra-ocular injection of N-Ac-3H-Man and after an incorporation period of 24 hrs, only the optic layers in the contralateral optic tectum are labelled (gangliosides). Together with corresponding biochemical data, this shows, that in the optic tract radioactivity of low molecular amino sugars is transported proximo-distally by means of rapid axonal flow (〉40 mm/d), before the incorporation into high molecular compounds.

    Notes: Summary To determine whether or not prostaglandins enter adrenocortical parenchymal cells,3H-PGE1 was injected intravenously into rats. In histological preparations, grains denoting activity were noted in intracellular lipid droplets and nuclei and in sinusoids. At the fine structural level, activity was observed in lipid droplets, mitochondria, the agranular endoplasmic reticulum, nuclei and the plasma membrane. Biochemical lipid analyses of the adrenals revealed activity in the cholesterol and cholesterol ester fractions. Large amounts of unaltered3H-PGE1 and its degradation products were also present. Compared to the liver, the adrenal was more effective in degrading prostaglandin, when expressed on a weight basis. The possible roles of the organelles in PGE1 degradation and in prostaglandin-related hormone synthesis are discussed.

    Notes: Summary The distribution of binding sites for atrial natriuretic peptide in cardiac ventricles of several mammalian species, including rat and human, was determined by in vitro autoradiography. The results revealed a unique anatomic localization of atrial natriuretic peptide binding sites to endomural vessels (Thebesian vessels), which communicate directly with the ventricular chambers. Digital image analysis indicated that these vascular channels possessed binding site densities comparable to those of the renal glomeruli a major target site for circulating atrial natriuretic peptide. In contrast, no specific labeling of branches of the coronary arteries and veins was detected. The discrete localization of atrial natriuretic peptide binding sites to this “primitive” cardiac circulatory system allows speculation as to the role of this hormone in the regulation of endocardialcirculation during cardiac development, normal ventricular function, and in coronary insufficiency.

    Notes: Summary The neurosecretory activity of azadirachtin A-treated Locusta migratoria that failed to mature was compared with that of rapidly maturing control females by means of histological techniques. High resolution drymount autoradiography was used to localize [22,23-3H2]dihydroazadirachtin A in the brain and corpus cardiacum (CC). The neurosecretory system of the locusts treated with this insecticide was accompanied by an unusually high accumulation of paraldehyde fuchsin (PAF)-stainable neurosecretory material (NSM) in the brain fibers and in the storage lobes of the CC. The control females never had such an intense accumulation of NSM. The accumulation of NSM, resulting from its poor release, may influence its synthesis which is controlled by feed-back regulation. [22,23-3H2]Dihydroazadirachtin A is localized mainly at the peripheral blood-brain barrier and does not penetrate into the brain effectively, whereas it completely covers the CC. It is concluded that azadirachtin A affects the endocrine activity of the brain in an indirect way.

    Notes: Summary Muscle precursor replication in Swiss mice, in which muscle regeneration is exceptionally vigorous, was compared with previous data for regeneration in BALBc mice. The tibialis anterior muscles of 23 male and 15 female inbred Swiss SJL/J mice were crush injured, and tritiated thymidine injected into mice at various times after injury to label replicating muscle precursors. Lesion samples were taken 10 days after injury, processed for autoradiography, and grain counts of myotube nuclei analysed. Muscle regeneration was more vigorous in male compared with female Swiss mice, and in both was strikingly greater than that in BALBc mice in which there was extensive fibrous connective tissue throughout the lesions. Autoradiographic analysis showed that muscle precursor replication started at 24 hours in Swiss mice, 6 hours earlier than the onset at 30 hours in BALBc mice. Muscle precursor replication appeared to be more active 96 hours after injury in female Swiss compared with male BALBc and male Swiss mice respectively, although numbers of precursor cells replicating at other times were similar. It is not known whether the slight difference in onset of muscle precursor replication can alone account for the more complete muscle regeneration seen in Swiss mice. Similar studies were carried out in 11 male and 10 female F1 hybrid (SJL/J x BALBc) mice. Analysis of labelled myotube nuclei showed that muscle precursors did not synthesise DNA prior to 30 hours after injury, and regeneration resembled that of the parental BALBc strain.

    Notes: Summary Light-microscopic autoradiography was used to localize the cellular sites for neutral amino acid uptake in submandibular and sublingual salivary gland epithelia. The vasculature of isolated glands was perfused for 3–5 min with either L-(3-3H)serine or L-(4-3H)phenylalanine and then fixed by perfusion with buffered glutaraldehyde. In the submandibular gland the small neutral amino acid L-serine and the aromatic amino acid L-phenylalanine were localized to central acinar cells, demilunar cells and ductal cells. In the sublingual gland silver grains associated with each of these tritiated amino acids were localized to central acinar and ductal cells. Perfusion of both submandibular and sublingual glands with unlabelled L-serine (25 mM) or L-phenylalanine (30 mM) resulted in a significant decrease in the silver grain density associated with each labelled amino acid. The absence of silver grains in the lumina of acinar and ductal cells and the presence of tight junctions near the apical surface of the epithelium strongly suggest that the initial uptake of these amino acids was mediated by basolateral plasma membrane carriers.

    Notes: Summary The median eminence (ME) of the adult frog, Rana temporaria, was studied by means of electron microscopy including quantitative electron-microscopic autoradiography. In frogs captured in May and June numerous peptidergic neurosecretory fibres extending via the internal zone to the pars nervosa display large swellings containing few granules, mitochondria, neurotubules and cisternae of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. In addition, few secretory globules up to 1.5 μm in diameter occur in these varicosities. In animals collected during the autumn period many of these neurosecretory swellings filled with neurosecretory granules and polymorphic inclusions resemble Herring bodies. Three types of granule-containing neurosecretory fibres were observed in the external zone (EZ) of the ME of adult R. temporaria. Peptidergic A1- and A2-type fibres are characterized by granules 150–220 nm and 100–160 nm in diameter, respectively. Monoaminergic fibres of type B with granules approximately 100 nm in diameter represent ∼ 50% of all neurosecretory elements in the EZ of the frog ME; ∼12% of the total number of granule-bearing axons in the EZ actively taking up radiolabelled 5-hydroxytryptophan are thought to be serotoninergic terminals. Neurosecretory terminals of all types and glial vascular endfeet establish direct contacts with the perivascular space of the primary portal capillaries. Some neurosecretory terminals are separated from the lumen of the third ventricle by a thin cytoplasmic lamella of tanycytes. The possible physiological significance of this structural pattern is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Quantitative light-microscopic autoradiography was used on five human uteri at two different phases of the menstrual cycle to ascertain the cell types with binding sites for epidermal growth factor (EGF). The results revealed that stromal cells, glandular epithelium of endometrium, elongated and circular muscle cells of myometrium, smooth muscle and endothelial cells of arterioles in the basal endometrium and myometrium contained numerous silver grains following incubation with 125I-EGF. Coincubation with 100-fold excess unlabeled EGF resulted in a complete disappearance of silver grains from all cell types. Quantitative grain analysis indicated that stromal cells contained the highest number of EGF-binding sites (P〈0.05) with no significant differences among the others (P〉0.05). There was no cyclic variation of EGF-binding to any of the uterine cell types. The present data demonstrate that all the cell types of human uterus, including arterioles, contain EGF-binding sites. This suggests that all the cells in human uterus subserving different functions are targets of EGF action.

    Notes: Summary Atrial myoendocrine cells of rat were investigated regarding estradiol uptake. It was found that, in addition to their specific endocrine function of producing cardiac polypeptides of the cardiodilatin/atrial natriuretic peptide (CDD/ANP) family, these cells also specifically accumulate radiolabeled estradiol. This co-localization supports the view that steroid hormones play an important role in the regulation of the CDD/ANP gene.

    Notes: Summary Cellular proliferation in skeletal muscle was measured throughout the first 4 weeks after denervation. Twenty four mice had one leg denervated, and 4 groups of 6 of these mice were injected with tritiated thymidine once daily for 7 days, either during the first, second, third or fourth week after denervation. Autoradiographic labelling of muscle and connective tissue nuclei in denervated muscles was compared with innervated muscles from the opposite innervated legs of the same mice. Labelling of connective tissue and muscle (myonuclear and satellite cell) nuclei was significantly higher in denervated muscles, compared with innervated muscles on the unoperated side. There were no significant differences among labelling of nuclei in muscles denervated for 1, 2, 3 or 4 weeks. However, connective tissue labelling after 1 week of denervation was significantly higher than at later times. This study shows that nuclei of muscle and connective tissue cells proliferate and turnover at high levels for at least one month after denervation.

    Notes: Summary Recent studies regarding the influence of cycloheximide on the temperature-dependent increase in survival and mutation frequencies of a thermoconditional rev2 mutant lead to the suggestion that the REV2-coded mutagenic repair function is UV-inducible. In the present study we show that stationary-phase rev2 ts cells are characterized by a biphasic linear-quadratic dose-dependence of mutation induction (“mutation kinetics”) of ochre alleles at 23° C (permissive temperature) but linear kinetics at the restrictive temperature of 36° C. Mathematical analysis using a model based on Poisson statistics and a further mathematical procedure, the calculation of “apparent survival”, support the assumption that the quadratic component of the reverse mutation kinetics investigated can be attributed to a UV-inducible component of mutagenic DNA repair controlled by the REV2 gene.

The suppressing activity of suc1 is observed when it is present on a multicopy number plasmid. The gene does not hybridise to cdc2 and maps elsewhere in the genome. Its effect is cdc2 allele specific suggesting that it interacts directly with the cdc2 gene function.

    Notes: Summary The 5′-flanking region of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae catalase T gene (CTT1) and the part of the gene coding for the N-terminus of catalase T were sequenced. 5′-Ends of transcripts of the region were located by S1 nuclease mapping and primer extension. To analyse control elements in the upstream region, a CTT1-lacZ gene fusion was constructed. Deletion analysis was carried out within a part of the 5′-flanking region showing homology to the upstream region of the yeast CYC1 gene. Like the CTT1 gene, this gene is controlled by heme, oxygen and glucose. The results obtained show that the CTT1 gene is positively controlled by heme. Tentative evidence has been obtained for the involvement of upstream sequences homologous to USA1 and USA2 of the CYC1 gene in heme control. Further, a negative site has been located between the upstream activator sites and the transcription start. Within this negative region a ten base-pair sequence was detected that shows high homology to a sequence located within a negative control region of the CYC1 gene and some homology to the negative control elements of the S. cerevisiae CAR1 and CAR2 genes.

    Notes: Summary To define the extent of intervening sequences required for efficient splicing of the CYH2 gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we have constructed a series of intron mutations. Artificial intron extensions of more than 300 bp of the natural intron lead to an inhibition of splicing where-as intron deletions lead to a drastic improvement of the splicing efficiency. It is shown that deletion of a 32 bp sequence element within the intron is responsible for this drastic improvement.

    Notes: Summary The mode of expression was investigated for two positive regulatory genes PHO2 and PHO4, whose products are indispensable for the transcriptional control of the structural genes of repressible acid phosphatase and the inorganic phosphate (Pi) transport system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Northern analysis of poly(A)+ RNA of the wild-type and the pho regulatory mutants with PHO4 DNA as hybridization probe and expressional analysis of a pho4′-'lacZ fused gene on a YEp plasmid revealed that PHO4 is expressed at a low level, constitutively, and independently of the PHO regulatory system and Pi in the medium. Similar analyses with PHO2 DNA indicated that PHO2 is expressed at an even lower level than PHO4, and is repressed by Pi and by the active PHO2 product, possibly at the translational level, while retaining a substantial level of basal activity.

    Notes: Summary Standard laboratory yeast strains have from four to five genes encoding the methionine initiator tRNA (IMT). Strain S288C has four IMT genes with identical coding sequences that are colinear with the RNA sequence of tRNA I Met . Each of the four IMT genes from strain S288C is located on a different chromosome. A fifth IMT gene with the same coding sequence is present in strain A364A but not in S288C. By making combinations of null alleles in strain S288C, we show that each of the four IMT genes is functional and that tRNA I Met is not limiting in yeast strains with three or more intact genes. Strains containing a single IMT2, 3 or 4 gene grow only after amplification of the remaining IMT gene. Strains with only the IMT1 gene intact are viable but grow extremely slowly; normal growth is restored by the addition of another IMT gene by transformation, providing a direct test for IMT function.

    Notes: Summary We have investigated the fate of the yeast 2 μm DNA plasmid in strains with a temperature sensitive mutation of DNA ligase. At the restrictive temperature the plasmid DNA collects as an open circular form with single strand interruptions. Both alpha factor pheromone, which arrests cells before the start of S phase, and hydroxyurea, which blocks progression through S phase, prevent the appearance of the open circular form. Thus, interrupted plasmid DNA does not accumulate in the absence of DNA replication. On average the interrupted molecules contain four to five interruptions per newly replicated strand. Most of the interruptions are nicks (breaks in a single phosphate ester bond) rather than gaps (absence of one or more nucleotides in a strand) as judged by the in vitro conversion of the interrupted molecules into a covalently closed form by DNA ligase. Mapping of the position of the interruptions reveals no predominate sites.

    Notes: Summary We have cloned three distinct nuclear genes, NAM1, NAM7, and NAM8, which alleviate mitochondrial intron mutations of the cytochrome b and COXI (subunit I of cytochrome oxidase) genes when present on multicopy plasmids. These nuclear genes show no sequence homology to each other and are localized on different chromosomes: NAM1 on chromosome IV, NAM7 on chromosome XIII and NAM8 on chromosome VIII. Sequence analysis of the NAM1 gene shows that it encodes a protein of 440 amino acids with a typical presequence that would target the protein to the mitochondrial matrix. Inactivation of the NAM1 gene by gene transplacement leads to a dramatic reduction of the overall synthesis of mitochondrial protein, and a complete absence of the COXI protein which is the result of a specific block in COXI pre-mRNA splicing. The possible mechanisms by which the NAM1 gene product may function are discussed.

    Notes: Summary The leaky expression of the yeast mitochondrial geneoxi1, containing a frameshift mutation (+1), is caused by natural frameshift suppression, as shown previously (Fox and Weiss-Brummer 1980). A drastic decrease in the natural level of frameshifting is found in the presence of thepar r-454 mutation, localized at the 3′ end of the 15 S rRNA gene. This mutation causes resistance to the antibiotic paronomycin in the yeast strains D273-10B and KL14-4A (Li et al. 1982; Tabak et al. 1982). The results of this study imply that in the yeast strain 777-3A this mutation alone is sufficient for restriction of the level of natural frameshifting but is insufficient to confer resistance to paromomycin. A second mutation, arising spontaneously with a frequency of 10−4 leads, in combination with thepar r-454 mutation, to full paromomycin resistance in strain 777-3A.

    Notes: Summary The RAD18 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is involved in mutagenic DNA repair. We describe its isolation from a yeast library introduced into the centromeric YCp50 vector, a low copy number plasmid. The insert was sublconed into YCp50 and into the multicopy YRp7 plasmid. RAD18 is not toxic when present in multiple copies but the UV survival response indicates an heterogeneity in the cell population, a fraction of it being more sensitive. A DNA segment, close to RAD18, is toxic on the multicopy plasmid and may correspond to the tRAN sup61 known to be tightly linked to RAD18. Chromosomal deletions of RAD18 were constructed. The gene is not essential and the deleted strains have the properties of single site mutants. Thus, RAD18 appears to be essentially involved in DNA repair metabolism.

The deduced PHO13 protein consists of 312 amino acids and its molecular weight is 34635. The disruption of the PHO13 gene produced no effect on cell growth, sporulation, or viability of ascospores. The PHO13 locus was mapped at 1.9 centimorgans from the HO locus on the left arm of chromosome IV. By chromosome fragmentation, the PHO13 locus was found to be located about 72 kb from the left-hand telomere of chromosome IV and distal to the HO locus.

    Notes: Summary Isolated nuclei of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were incubated with five restriction nucleases. Out of the twenty-one recognition sequences for these nucleases in the centromere region of chromosome XIV, only five are accessible to cleavage. These sites map 11 by and 74 by to the left and 27 bp, 41 by and 290 by to the right, respectively, of the boundaries of the 118 by functional CEN14 DNA sequence. The distance between the sites accessible to cleavage and closest to CEN14 is 156 bp, suggesting this is the maximal size of DNA protected in CEN14 chromatin. The DNA in CEN14 chromatin protected against cleavage with DNase I and micrococcal nuclease overlaps almost completely with this region. Hypersensitive regions flanking both sides are approximately 60 by long. Analyses of other S. cerevisiae centromeres with footprinting techniques in intact cells or nucleolytic cleavages in isolated nuclei are discussed in relation to our results. We conclude that structural data of chromatin obtained with restriction nucleases are reliable and that the structure of CEN14 chromatin is representative for S. cerevisiae centromeres.

    Notes: Summary In Saccharomyces cerevisiae a nuclear recessive mutation, lpd1, which simultaneously abolishes the activities of lipoamide dehydrogenase, 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase and pyruvate dehydrogenase has been identified. Strains carrying this mutation can grow on glucose or poorly on ethanol, but are unable to grow on media with glycerol or acetate as carbon source. The mutation does not prevent the formation of other tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes such as fumarase, NAD+-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase or succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, but these are produced at about 50%–70% of the wild-type levels. The mutation probably affects the structural gene for lipoamide dehydrogenase since the amount of this enzyme in the cell is subject to a gene dosage effect; heterozygous lpd1 diploids produce half the amount of a homozygous wild-type strain. Moreover, a yeast sequence complementing this mutation when present in the cell on a multicopy plasmid leads to marked overproduction of lipoamide dehydrogenase. Homozygous lpd1 diploids were unable to sporulate indicating that some lipoamide dehydrogenase activity is essential for sporulation to occur on acetate.

    Notes: Summary We have isolated and characterized a new mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, carrying a single mutant allele that we designate ngm2-1, which is defective with respect to induced mutagenesis. This mutant was isolated by screening mutagenized clones for reduced frequencies of reversion of the his1-7 allele, induced by N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. As judged by the reversion of his1-7 and ilv1-92, ngm2-1 mutant strains are also deficient with respect to mutability induced by methyl methane sulfonate, ethyl methane sulfonate and, at least partially, by UV. UV-induced reversion of the ochre mutation arg4-17 and the frameshift mutation his4-38 was not much affected by ngm2-1, however. Like rev3 and rev7 mutations, ngm2-1 also has little influence on the reversion of the proline missense allele, cyc1-115. Ngm2-1 mutants are only at best very slightly more sensitive to the toxicity of the four mutagens used, and homozygous diploids sporulate normally.

    Notes: Summary A system is described that facilitates the selection of yeast promoters of unknown origin using a functional heterologous gene assay. A multicopy plasmid was constructed with a unique cloning site 5′ to the Herpes Simplex type 1 thymidine kinase gene (TK). A yeast genomic DNA library was introduced into this site and used to transform yeast (which naturally lacks a TK gene). Only transformants carrying DNA fragments with promoter activity can express TK activity and thereby grow on medium containing thymidine and folate antagonists. On the basis of TK assays of yeast cell homogenates from some 100 TK + transformants, a particularly promising plasmid containing a yeast promoter was selected for further analysis. The position of the transcriptional start of the mRNA of this promoter was identified and the promoter sequence established. A fragment containing the promoter was taken and engineered to produce an expression vector and an expression/secretion vector. We report on the expression and secretion of interferon —X430 (IFN-X 430) (a derivative of IFN beta) from yeast cells containing such plasmids.

    Notes: Summary Expression of the repressible acid phosphatase (rAPase) gene, PHO5, of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is repressed by a certain level of inorganic phosphate (Pi) in the medium and is derepressed when the Pi concentration is lowered. The Pi signals are conveyed to PHO5 by a regulatory system consisting of proteins coded for by the PHO2, PHO4, PHO80 and PHO81 genes. We have found that the transcription of PHO81 is regulated by Pi through the PHO regulatory system. Increasing the dosage of PHO4 and PHO81 by ligating each gene to YEP13 gives rise to, respectively, considerable and weak synthesis of rAPase by cultivation of the transformants in high-Pi medium; but in low-Pi medium, increased dosage of PHO4 stimulates the rAPase synthesis significantly, whereas PHO81 has no effect. Increased dosage of PHO2 stimulates rAPase synthesis considerably in low-Pi but not in high-Pi. A coordinate increase of PHO80 cancels the dosage effect of PHO4, but not that of PHO81. Coordinate increases of PHO80 and PHO2 give rise to the same phenotype as an increased dosage of PHO80 alone. The level of the PHO4 protein was found to be the limiting factor of the rAPase synthesis and the copy number of the PHO5 gene not to be. These facts accord with the idea that the PHO80 protein transmits the Pi signals to the PHO5 gene via the PHO4 protein, whereas the PHO2 protein does not have a direct function in the signal transmission.

    Notes: Summary The constuction of two fused genes is described. One involves the in-frame fusion of the yeast prepro-α-factor coding sequence, and the Escherichia coli lac Z gene. The second gene fusion utilizes a 103 bp yeast invertase NH2-terminal coding sequence at the fusion junction of the hybrid gene described above. The gene fusions, under the control of the α-factor promoter, expressed active β-galactosidase in α haploid yeast cells. The activity could be regulated in a temperature-sensitive sir3 mutant. The incorporation of the invertase coding sequence at the MFα1-lacZ fusion junction provided significantly higher levels of β-galactosidase activity. A substantial quantity of the hybrid proteins generated from the gene fusions was primarily localized in the intracellular membranes of yeast cells, while a processed form could be secreted into the periplasm.

    Notes: Abstract Reconstitution experiments were performed on lipid bilayer membranes in the presence of purified mitochondrial porin from yeast and of detergent-solubilized mitochondrial outer membranes of a porin-free yeast mutant. The addition of the porin resulted in a strong increase of the membrane conductance, which was caused by the formation of ion-permeable channels in the membranes. Yeast porin has a single-channel conductance of 4.2 nS in 1 M KCl. In the open state it behaves as a general diffusion pore with an effective diameter of 1.7 nm and possesses properties similar to other mitochondrial porins. Surprisingly, the membrane conductance also increased in the presence of detergent extracts of the mitochondrial outer membrane of the mutant. Single-channel recordings of lipid bilayer membranes in the presence of small concentration of the mutant membranes suggested that this membrane also contained a pore. The reconstituted pores had a single-channel conductance of 2.0 nS in 1 M KCl and the characteristics of general diffusion pores with an estimated effective diameter of 1.2 nm. This means that the pores present in the mitochondrial outer membranes of the yeast mutant have a much smaller effective diameter than “normal” mitochondrial porins. Zero-current membrane potential measurements suggested that the second mitochondrial porin is slightly cation-selective, while yeast porin is slightly anion-selective in the open state but highly cation-selective in the closed state. The possible role of these pores in the metabolism of mitochondria is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The agglutinability-masking factors (AMFs) of a and α mating types of Issatchenkia scutulata var. scutulata were prepared from culture fluids. AMFs masked the agglutinability of opposite mating-type cells sex-specifically, just like agglutination substances responsible for sexual cell agglutination. a AMF adsorbed to α cells was eluted by incubating the cells at 60°C for 10 min. α AMF was prepared directly from culture fluids of α cells by DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography. The active part of the AMFs is thought to be a peptidyl moiety because of the sensitivity to subtilisin. The pretreatment of cells with AMF of the opposite mating-type was shown to promote zygote formation. α AMF slightly inhibited growth in a cells but not in α cells, while a AMF did not show any growth-inhibitory effect on either a or x cells.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Eine spektralphotometrische Methode wird beschrieben, die es ermöglicht, Elemente in kleinen Konzentrationen zu bestimmen. Dies wird im Prinzip durch den Anschluß eines hochempfindlichen Galvanometers an ein Zweizellenphotocolorimeter ermöglicht. Der so erreichte Gewinn an Empfindlichkeit wird einesteils durch die Anwendung von zwei Interferenzfiltern dazu genutzt, die Selektivität des Systems zu erhöhen, anderenteils kann mit dem Ersatz der Lichtschutzklappe durch Küvetten mit sog. Limitlösungen (Lösungen bekannter, entsprechender Konzentration) das System auf den optimalen Meßbereich ausgewogen werden. Zu den Hauptvorteilen dieser Methode zählen: Senkung der Nachweisgrenze (z.B. bei Mn von 20,27 auf 0,18 μg), variable Wahl der optimalen Empfindlichkeit, optimales Auflösungsvermögen durch die Möglichkeit der Skalendehnung im gewünschten Konzentrationsintervall, Erhöhung der Genauigkeit sowie leichte Konstruktion der diagonal zum Koordinatenkreuz unter einem Winkel von 45° verlaufenden Eichkurve.
    Notes: Abstract A spectrophotometric method is described by which it is possible to determine elements in low concentrations. This is achieved by the connection of a highly sensitive galvanometer to a two-cell photocolorimeter. The higher precision attained in this way can be used on the one hand by the application of two interference filters for the increase of the selectivity of the system, on the other hand, with the replacement of the flap by measurement cells with so-called limit solutions (solutions of known, corresponding concentration) for balancing the system for an optimum range of measurement. The main advantages of this method are: decrease of the limit of detection (e.g. of Mn from 20.27 to 0.18 μg), choice of an optimum sensitivity, an optimum separating power by the possibility of extending the scale in the necessary concentration interval, increase of precision and an easy construction of the calibration curve, located diagonally under a 45° angle to the coordinate system.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Durch Kondensation von Malonaldehyd mit 4,6-Dioxohexahydropyrimidin (Dihydrobarbitursäure) bildet sich der Trimethinfarbstoff DHBTM. Er ist ein ausgezeichnetes, stabiles Reagens zur photometrischen Bestimmung von Magnesium. Seine Darstellung und seine Eigenschaften werden beschrieben. Die Magnesiumbestimmung beruht auf der Bildung einer Adsorptionsverbindung und ist weitgehend unabhängig von Störfaktoren, die bei ähnlichen Reaktionen von großem Einfluß sind. So läßt sich ohne voraufgehende Extraktion, lediglich unter Zuhilfenahme von Maskierungsmitteln ein Bestimmungsverfahren für Magnesium in Aluminramlegierungen ausarbeiten. Der Variationskoeffizient des Verfahrens liegt in der Größenordnung von 1 Rel.-%.
    Notes: Abstract The trimethine dye DHBTM, which can be prepared by condensation of malonaldehyde and 4,6-dioxohexahydropyrimidine (dihydrobarbituric acid), is described as an excellent, stable reagent for a photometric determination of magnesium. The method is based on the formation of an adsorption compound. Interfering elements in aluminium alloys can be masked in a simple manner with no preceding extraction being necessary. The variation coefficient of the photometric method is ca. 1%-rel.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Zur reproduzierbaren Herstellung von NH4F-HF-Ätzlösungen muß der Gehalt an NH4OH in den käuflichen 40% igen NH4F-Lösungen ermittelt werden. Hierzu wurde eine colorimetrische Methode unter Verwendung von pH-Farbindicatoren der Phenolgruppe ausgearbeitet, die geringe pH-Wertabweichungen (0,007 pH) vom Soll (0% NH4OH) zu messen erlaubt, wobei der Sollwert durch stabile Citronensäure-Phosphatpuffer simuliert wird. Durch Extinktionsmessung gelingt es, 0,01% NH4OH in NH4F-Lösungen zu erfassen. Die gefundenen Werte liegen zwischen 0,1–0,3%.
    Notes: Abstract To obtain NH4F-HF etching agents with constant etching behaviour the concentration of NH4OH in commercially available 40% NH4F solutions has to be measured. By application of pH-indicators of the phenol type very small pH-deviations (0.007 pH) from the specified value (0% NH4OH) can be measured. The specified value is simulated by the stable McIlvaine buffer. By determining the differences in optical absorption 0.01% NH4OH can be measured in NH4F solutions. Values found in practice are between 0.1– 0.3%.
