    The polymerization of sickle hemoglobin in solutions and cells (1993)

    Notes: Abstract The polymerization of sickle hemoglobin occurs by the same mechanisms in solutions and in cells, and involves the formation of 14 stranded fibers from hemoglobin molecules which have assumed a deoxy quaternary structure. The fibers form via two types of highly concentration-dependent nucleation processes: homogeneous nucleation in solutions with hemoglobin activity above a critical activity, and heterogeneous nucleation in similarly supersaturated solutions which also contain hemoglobin polymers. The latter pathway is dominant, and creates polymer arrays called domains. The individual polymers bend, but also cross-link, and the resulting mass behaves as a solid. The concentration of polymerized hemoglobin increases exponentially unless clamped by rate limiting effects such as oxygen delivery.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of different mineral nutrients on the kinetics of methane biodegradation by a mixed culture of methanotrophic bacteria was studied. The substrate factors examined were ammonia, iron, copper, manganese, phosphate, and sulphide. The presence of iron in the growth medium had a strong effect on the yield coefficient. Yield coefficients up to 0.49 mg protein per mg methane were observed when iron was added at concentrations of 0.10–5.0 mg/l. Iron addition also increased the maximum methane utilization rate. The same effect was observed after addition of ammonium to a medium where nitrate was the only nitrogen source. The observed Monod constant for methane utilization increased with increasing concentration of ammonia. This shows that ammonia is a weak competitive inhibitor as observed by other researchers. Relatively high levels of both ammonia (70 mg/l) and copper (300 µg/l) inhibited the methane degradation, probably due to the toxic effect of copper-amine complexes.

    Kinetics of redox cycling of iron coupled with fulvic acid (1993)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of conversion of iron(III) (hydr)oxides to ferrous iron mediated by fulvic acid have been investigated in order to improve the understanding of the redox cycling of iron at the oxic-anoxic boundary in natural waters. Under the conditions similar to natural waters, fulvic acid is able to reduce the iron(III) (hydr)oxide. The kinetics of the reaction depend on the reactivity of iron(III) (hydr)oxides and the reducing power of the fulvic acid. The rate of reaction is 60 nm/h obtained under following conditions: total concentration of Fe(III) 1.0 × 10−4 M, pH 7.5, fulvic acid 5 mg/L. The rate is considered as a net result of reduction and oxidation in the 〉 FeIII-OH/Fe(II) “wheel” coupled with fulvic acid. In a real natural water system, reductants other than fulvic acid may be of importance. The results obtained in the laboratory, however, provide evidence that the Fe(OH)3(s)/Fe(II) redox couple is able to act as an electron-transfer mediator for the oxidation of natural organic substances, such as fulvic acid by molecular oxygen either in the absence of microorganisms or as a supplement to microbial activity.

    Bioavailability of controlled release carbamazepine estimated by mixed effect modelling (1993)

    Notes: Summary The absorption properties of a conventional tablet of carbamazepine (T) and a controlled release form of carbamazepine (TCR) have been compared using a nonlinear mixed effect model (NONMEM). Plasma carbamazepine concentration data were obtained from an open, steady-state, crossover bioavailability study in which 494 measurements were obtained from 13 patients, with an equal number of samples per patient for each dosage form. The pharmacokinetic model used was a one-compartment open model with first-order absorption and elimination. The objective function was used as a measure of the goodness of fit of the model to the data. Body weight was an important determinant of carbamazepine clearance (CL) but not volume of distribution (V). Accounting for the interindividual variability in volume of distribution did not significantly influence the objective function. Including different rates of absorption (ka) for the two dosage forms resulted in a significant improvement in the objective function, as well as reducing the interindividual variability in the rate of absorption. Adding a parameter for relative bioavailability (f) of TCR improved the objective function statistically, but an unrealistic value for V was obtained, and the absorption and elimination rates appeared to be transposed in the classical “flip-flop” manner. Fixing V to the value obtained before introducing f did not change the objective function and permitted estimation of f without the confounding influence of excessive parameters. The final population parameter estimates (standard error of estimate) were: CL, 0.0522 (0.0019) l·h−1·kg−1; V, 63.7 (FIXED)l; kaT, 0.312 (0.064) h−1; kaTCR, 0.149 (0.016) h−1; f, 1.01 (0.0326); variance (additive) in CL, 0.291 (0.083) (l·h−1·kg−1)2; residual intrasubject error variance (additive), 0.572 (0.082) (mg·l−1)2. The 95% confidence interval of the extent of absorption (f) of 93.6%–107.4% was well within the generally accepted range of ±20%, while the rate of absorption of Tegretol CR was significantly slower than that of Tegretol, as expected for a controlled release product.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird ein neue Apparat zur Untersuchung der Hochtemperatur-Sulfidierung von Metallen in H2/H2S Atmosphare beschrieben. Der Unterschied zwischen diesem Apparat und dem fruher benutzten, besteht im Gasdosierungsystem. Wasserstoff reagiert teilweise mit Schwefel, was eine stabile Zusammensetzung des Gasgemisches beim niedrigen Schwefeldampfdruck sichert. Gewichtsmessungen von Metallen und Legierungen konnen in diesem System bei Temperaturen von 1073 bis 1473 K mit einer Genauigkeit von 10−6 g ausgefuhrt werden.
    Notes: Abstract A new thermogravimetric apparatus for studying the kinetics of metal sulphidation in a H2/H2S gas mixture is described. The main difference between this device and other equipment is the application of hydrogen to obtain a H2/H2S mixture at suitable sulphur partial pressures at a total mixture pressure of 1 atm. The use of the carrier gas allows the measurement of sulphidation kinetics under dynamic conditions and consequently over a much wider pressure range of sulphur vapour, down to 10−12 atm.

    Notes: Abstract The complexes of Zn, Cd and Hg of isatin isonicotinoyl hydrazone were prepared at two differentpHs. Their thermal studies (TG, DTG and DTA) have been made and the DC electrical conductivity of compressed powder samples as a function of temperature was investigated. The activation energies (ΔE) were calculated for the ligand and the complexes which showed that the ligand has a lower value of ΔE than the complexes. The magnitude of ΔE was found to be affected by the nature of the metal and thepH of preparation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Mittels Thermogravimetrie wurde die Chlorierungskinetik von alkaliversetztem (K und Li) Wolframtrioxid untersucht, wobei CCl4 als Chlorierungsreagens fungierte. Die Reaktivität der modifizierten Proben wurden mit der von reinem WO3 verglichen. Für die reinen und für die alkaliversetzten Proben wurden ähnliche scheinbare Aktivierungsenergien gefunden. Der Zusatz von Kalium verursacht jedoch eine starke Abnahme der ursprünglichen Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit, während oberflächiges Lithium keinen Effekt zeigt. Während der Chlorierung wurde eine ständige Senkung der linearen Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit für beide Proben festgestellt, was mit Rückhalteeffekten von oberflächigen Nebenprodukten und Alkalizusätzen erklärt wird. Zur Beschreibung der isothermen TG-Kurven wurde ein entsprechendes kinetisches Modell angenommen, welches auf einer monoton steigenden Inhibition dieser Proben basiert. Die auf der Grundlage dieses Modelles berechnete Kurve stimmt recht gut mit den experimentellen Ergebnissen überein.
    Notes: Abstract The chlorination kinetics of alkali-added (K and Li) tungsten trioxide were studied by thermogravimetry, using gaseous CCl4 as chlorinating agent. The reactivity of the modified samples was compared to the results on the chlorination of pure WO3. Similar apparent activation energies were found for the pure and alkali-added samples. However, potassium additive resulted in a strong decrease of the initial reaction rate, while surface lithium has no influence on it. During the chlorination a continuous decrease of the linear reaction rate was observed for both samples, which was explained by retarding effects of surface by-products and alkali additives. For describing the isothermal TG curves an appropriate kinetic model, based on the monotonously increasing inhibition of these species was assumed. The curve calculated with this model fits well to the experimental results.

The dynamic scans in the temperature range 20°–300°C were analyzed to estimate the activation energy and the order of reaction for the curing process using some empirical relations. The activation energy for the various epoxy systems is observed in the range 71.9–110.2 kJ·mol−1. The cured epoxy resins were studied for kinetics of thermal degradation by thermogravimetry in a static air atmosphere at a heating rate of 10 deg·min−1. The thermal degradation reactions were found to proceed in a single step having an activation energy in the range 27.6–51.4 kJ·mol−1.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Mittels isothermer und dynamischer TG wurde im Graphit-Eisen(III)oxidsystem in Luft der Einfluß von60Co-Gammastrahlung und von verschiedenen Probenzusammensetzungen auf die Reduktion von Hämatit zu Eisen untersucht. Entsprechend verschiedener theoretischer Modelle heterogener Reaktionen wurde eine kinetische Analyse der isothermen Daten durchgeführt und die Ergebnisse zeigten, daß das dreidimensionale Phasengrenzenmodell die beste Übereinstimmung liefert. Die Analyse der dynamischen TG-Daten wurde mittels der Integralmethode von Ozawa, der Coats-Redfem-Methode und einer zusammengesetzten Methode auf der Grundlage der modifizierten Coats und Redfern Gleichung durchgeführt. Die Aktivierungsparameter wurden berechnet und die Ergebnisse der verschiedenen Methoden miteinander verglichen und diskutiert. Strahlung scheint keine Änderung des Reaktionsmodelles oder des Mechanismus hervorzurufen. Durch Bestrahlung gibt es aber ein Absinken der Aktivierungsenergie und des Frequenzfaktors sowie ein Absinken der Halbwertszeit der Reaktion, was bei höheren Temperaturen und höherer Dosis bemerkenswert groß ist.
    Notes: Abstract The effects of60Co-gamma radiation and of various sample composition on the reduction of hematite to iron in the graphite-iron(III) oxide system in air were studied using isothermal and dynamic TG techniques. Kinetic analysis of isothermal data were performed according to various theoretical models of heterogeneous reactions and the results showed that the three-dimensional phase boundary model gives the best fit of data. Analysis of dynamic TG data were made using Ozawa integral method, Coats-Redfern method and a composite method based on the modified Coats and redfern equation. The activation parameters were calculated and the results of the different methods were compared and discussed. Radiation apparently did not introduce a change in the reaction model or mechanism. However, there is a decrease in activation energy and frequency factor upon irradiation and a decrease in the half-life time of the reaction which is remarkable at the higher temperatures and higher doses.

Mittels isothermer und dynamischer DSC-Methoden wurden die kinetischen Parameter für diese Ansätze ermittelt. Unter Anwendung der isothermen DSC-Methode im Temperaturbereich 70°–90°C wurde die Geschwindigkeitskonstante für den Aushärtungsprozeß dieser Ansätze ermittelt. Diese wurden mittels Extrapolation der erhaltenen Angaben für höhere Temperaturen auch für die Temperatur 201°C (Raumtemperatur) vorhergesagt. Vorhergesagte und experimentell ermittelte Werte stehen in guter Übereinstimmung zueinander.
    Notes: Abstract The optimization of proportions of novolac epoxy resin, Dobeckot E4 and polyamide hardener, EH411 has been established by DSC and the data indicates that resin-polyamide, 100∶40 and 100∶50, appear to be optimum where ‘extent of cure’ is maximum. The kinetic parameters for these formulations have been evaluated using isothermal and dynamic modes by employing DSC. The rate constants have been evaluated for curing process of these formulations using isothermal DSC mode in the temperature range of 70°–90°C. These have also been predicted at 20°±1°C (room temperature) by extrapolating the data obtained at elevated temperatures. A comparison of the predicted values with the experimental values shows that there is a good agreement between them.

    Notes: Abstract Pigeon hemoglobin has eight reactive sulphydryl groups per (tetramer) molecule, as determined by Boyer titration with p-chloromercuribenzoate. However, only four of these are titra-table with 5,5′-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) under the same experimental conditions. The time course of the reaction of pigeon hemoglobin with 5,5′-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) is biphasic. In thepH range 6–9, the fast phase is between one and two orders of magnitude faster than the slow phase. For the fast phase,k app, the apparent second-order rate constant, increases monotonously withpH. Quantitative analysis reveals that the reactionof the sulphydryl group responsible for this phase is coupled to the ionization of two groups with pK a values of 6.15±0.1 and 8.5±0.1. These pK a values are assigned to HisHC3(146)β and to the CysF9(93)β sulphydryl group, respectively. For the slow phase thek app vs.pH profiles are bowl-shaped. Analysis reveals that the reaction of the sulphydryl group to which this phase may be attributed is coupled to the ionization of two groups with mean pK a values of 6.53±0.1 and 8.25±0.1. Examination of the structure of hemoglobin allows us to assign these values to HisG19(117)β and CysB5(23)β, respectively. The CysB5(23)β sulphydryl is in the region of the molecule where amino acid substitutions have been found to give rise to significant changes in the oxygen affinity of hemoglobin [Huanget al. (1990),Biochemistry 29, 7020–7023.

    Notes: Abstract Dog hemoglobin has four sulphydryl groups per (tetramer) molecule located at the G18(111)a and F9(93)β positions. The two sulphydryls at the G18(111)a positions are unreactive toward nonmercurial sulphydryl reagents, but those at the F9(93)β positions are reactive toward these reagents. We have studied the kinetics of the reaction of dog hemoglobin with 5,5′-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) as a function ofpH. At allpH values studied, the reaction is kinetically monophasic. Quantitative analysis of thepH dependence of the apparent second-order rate constant shows that two ionizable groups are linked to the reaction of the sulphydryl group. TheirpK a values are 5.57 and 9.0. These values are assigned to HisHC3(146)β and to the CysF9(93)β sulphydryl. We find that dog carbonmonoxyhemoglobin is significantly—almost an order of magnitude—less reactive than the aquomet, azidomet, and oxy derivatives. This result may be due to a greater tendency (at acidpH) for the salt bridge between HisHC3(146)β and AspFG1(94)β to form in the carbonmonoxy than in the other derivatives. Formation of this salt bridge is known to hinder access to the CysF9(93)β sulphydryl [Perutz, M. F. (1970),Nature 228, 734–739].

    Notes: Summary The kinetics of the initial phases of d-glucose binding to the glucose transport protein (GLUT1) of the human red cell can be followed by stopped-flow measurements of the time course of tryptophan (trp) fluorescence enhancement. A number of control experiments have shown that the trp fluorescence kinetics are the result of conformational changes in GLUT1. One shows that nontransportable l-glucose has no kinetic response, in contrast to d-glucose kinetics. Other controls show that d-glucose binding is inhibited by cytochalasin B and by extracellular d-maltose. A typical time course for a transportable sugar, such as d-glucose, consists of a zero-time displacement, too fast for us to measure, followed by three rapid reactions whose exponential time courses have rate constants of0.5–100 sec+−1 at 20°C. It is suggested that the zero-time displacement represents the initial bimolecular ligand/GLUT1 association. Exponential 1 appears to be located at, or near, the external membrane face where it is involved in discriminating among the sugars. Exponential 3 is apparently controlled by events at the cytosolic face. Trp kinetics distinguish the K d of the epimer, d-galactose, from the K dfor d-glucose, with results in agreement with determinations by other methods. Trp kinetics distinguish between the binding of the α- and β-d-glucose anomers. The exponential 1 activation energy of the β-anomer, 13.6 ± 1.4 kcal mol+−1, is less than that of α-d-glucose, 18.4 ± 0.8 kcal mol+−1, and the two Arrhenius lines cross at ≈23.5°C. The temperature dependence of the kinetic response following α-d-glucose binding illustrates the interplay among the exponentials and the increasing dominance of exponential 2 as the temperature increases from 22.3 to 36.6°C. The existence of these interrelations means that previously acceptable approximations in simplified reaction schemes for sugar transport will now have to be justified on a point-to-point basis.

    Notes: Summary Plasma membrane from Acetabularia acetabulum was prepared by aqueous-polymer two-phase partitioning and incorporated into planar 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl phosphatidylethanolamine bilayers by stirring in the presence of a (cis∶trans) 325∶100 mm KCl gradient. Under these conditions five distinct K+-selective channels were observed which had unitary chord-conductances (determined between 30 mV either side of the reversal potential) and frequencies of incorporation (in parentheses) of 1,600 pS (26%), 485 pS (21%), 259 pS (53%), 140 pS (37%) and 27 pS (37%). Two Cl−-selective channels were also observed, which had unitary chord-conductances of 8 and 48 pS and were present in 21 and 16% of bilayers, respectively. The voltage dependencies of channel open probability (P o ), open-state time constant (τ o) and closed-state time constant (τ c) were determined for the 259, 140 and 27 pS K+ channels. The P o of all three channels increased with increasingly positive membrane potentials. Thus, since these channels were oriented with their extracellular face adjacent to the cis chamber, which was grounded, all would exhibit outward rectification in vivo. Changes in P o were effected by modulation of τ c in all channels, which shortened as membrane potentials became more positive, and also of τ o in the 140 and 27pS channels, which increased as membrane potentials became more positive. Extracellular (cis) KCl concentration (and/or the KCl gradient across the bilayer) affected the P o of all three K+ channels, shifting the P o /membrane potential relationship in the direction of the change in the potassium reversal potential. In all channels this was achieved largely by changes in τ c .

    Notes: Abstract Polymerization of isobutylene in hexane at −78 °C under the action of the complex AcBr · 2AlBr3 (Ac-2) affords polyisobutylene having C=O groups at the head and C-Br or C=C groups at the tail of all the molecules. The presence of the latter indicates that there occurs proton elimination from the growing carbocation with the formation of a superacid HBr · 2AlBr3 which is unable to initiate the polymerization repeatedly under given contitions. This makes it possible to consider proton elimination as the reaction of the decay of active centers with the rate constantk d. This value has been calculated from the rate of accumulation of the polymeric molecules having terminal C=C bonds:k d=3.5 · 10−4 s−1. The rate constant of chain growthk g has been determined from polymerization kinetics and from the content of active centers:k g=6.2 L mol−1 s−1.

The interrelation between rate constants for NR reduction and oxidation reactions, isotropic HFS constantsa N, inductive constants σ″ of the piperidine substituents, and electrochemical characteristics of NR were found. The dependence of the rate constants for the reduction of NR by hydrazobenzene (HB) and its oxidation by tetranitromethane (TNM) upon the Hammett type inductive constantsσ EPR, obtained using HFS constantsa N as the basis, was analyzed. The solvent effect on the reduction and oxidation reaction rate constants, the kinetic isotopic effect of the reduction reaction for a number of NR-HB systems, and alternative reaction mechanisms are considered.

    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of thermal decomposition of melted hydroxylammonium nitrate have been investigated by the rate of heat production in the temperature range 84.8–120.9°C. The decomposition proceeds with autocatalysis and up to 60 % of conversion the rate of the process increases proportionally to the square of the degree of decomposition. The initial rate is proportional to the square of the concentration of HNO3 formed due to dissociation of the salt. The activation energy of this process is 15.3±1.8 kcal/mol. It is suggested that the initial stage the process proceeds via interaction between N2O3 and NH3OH+, whereas the subsequent acceleration is due to oxidation of NH3OH+ by nitrogen oxides formed as well as by nitrous acid.

    Notes: Abstract Fosinopril sodium (I), a new angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, is a diester prodrug of the active moiety II. We report here a novel transformation of fosinopril into β-ketoamide, III, and a phosphonic acid, IV, mediated through metal ion participation. The interaction of fosinopril with magnesium ions was studied in a solution model system in which methanol was used as the solvent and magnesium acetate as the source of metal ions. Kinetic analysis indicated the degradation to be a bimolecular process, with the rate being first order in both metal ion and fosinopril concentration. The degradation products II, III, and IV effectively retarded the magnesium ion mediated reaction of fosinopril. Based on the results of 31P-NMR, 1H-NMR, Mn(II)-EPR spectroscopy experiments and mass spectrometry, a mechanism is postulated for this transformation. A key reactive intermediate has been characterized that supports the proposed mechanism. The results can account for the observed degradation profile of the fosinopril sodium in a prototype tablet formulation.

    Kinetic analysis of AUC-dependent saturable clearance of liposomes: Mathematical description of AUC dependency (1993)

    Notes: Abstract The objective of this study was to examine the AUCdependency of saturable hepatic clearance (CL h )of liposomes and to postulate a mathematical model to describe the characteristics. The AUCdependency of saturable CL h was examined under intravenous rapid administration at various doses. The CL h increased with increasing blood concentration but decreased with the increase of AUCat each dose. In addition, the relationship between AUCand CL h was consistent with that observed in previously reported infusion studies. These experimental data confirm the AUCdependency of saturable CL h of liposomes. A mathematical model was developed for this AUCdependency. The decrease of CL h was described by the uptake amount (X)as follows: CL h =CL m (1−X/X m ),where CL m and X m represent the maximum uptake clearance and the maximum uptake amount, respectively. The rate equation for uptake was analytically solved as CL h =X/AUC=X m AUC(1-exp(CL m /X m AUC)).Uptake clearance can be described by CL m , X m ,and AUC,and so uptake clearance is constant if AUCis constant. These experimental analyses and theoretical considerations show the validity of the AUC-dependent saturable CL h of liposomes.

    Notes: Abstract A proton electrochemical potential across the membranes of photosynthetic purple bacteria is established by a light-driven proton pump mechanism: the absorbed light in the reaction center initiates electron transfer which is coupled to the vectorial displacement of protons from the cytoplasm to the periplasm. The stoichiometry and kinetics of proton binding and release can be tracked directly by electric (glass electrodes), spectrophotometric (pH indicator dyes) and conductimetric techniques. The primary step in the formation of the transmembrane chemiosmotic potential is the uptake of two protons by the doubly reduced secondary quinone in the reaction center and the subsequent exchange of hydroquinol for quinone from the membrane quinone-pool. However, the proton binding associated with singly reduced promary and/or secondary quinones of the reaction center is substoichiometric, pH-dependent and its rate is electrostatically enhanced but not diffusion limited. Molecular details of protonation are discussed based on the crystallographic structure of the reaction center of purple bacteriaRb. sphaeroides andRps. viridis, structure-based molecular (electrostatic) calculations and mutagenesis directed at protonatable amino acids supposed to be involved in proton conduction pathways.

    Notes: Abstract Influx isotherms were obtained for nitrate and ammonium from three legumes, Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp., Cicer arietinum L. and Arachis hypogaea L. and three cereals, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench., Pennisetum glaucum L. and Zea mays L. The transition in influx isotherms for both nitrogen sources was found to be within the concentration range (0.05–2.5 mM) tested. There were significant differences in Km and Vmax for ammonium between legumes and cereals. The difference in the kinetic properties for nitrate uptake between the two groups of plants only became apparent at the higher concentration tested. Legumes translocated absorbed nitrate and ammonium to shoots more rapidly than cereals. Results show that there are significant differences in uptake and translocation of ammonium and nitrate between legumes and cereals.

    Notes: Abstract A purified preparation of the extracellular alginate lyase has been used to study kinetics and specificity towards purified, homopolymeric fragments of alginate. The enzyme preparation from Bacillus circulans 1351 degraded both block types, although with different efficiency, and thus appears to be nonspecific. Addition of calcium ions markedly enhanced the reaction rate for the polymannuronate block but had little or no effect on the reaction with polyguluronate. Michaelis-Menten kinetics are not obeyed in the absence of calcium ions and only for the polymannuronate in the presence of calcium The study of progress curves in response to variation in substrate and enzyme concentrations strongly suggests that the abalone lyase is subject to a reversible product inhibition.

    Notes: Abstract Eight mitochondrial carrier proteins were solubilized and purified in the authors' laboratories using variations of a general procedure based on hydroxyapatite and Celite chromatography. The molecular mass of all the carriers ranges between 28 and 34 kDa on SDS-PAGE. The purified carrier proteins were reconstituted into liposomes mainly by using a method of detergent removal by hydrophobic chromatography on polystyrene beads. The various carriers were identified in the reconstituted state by their kinetic properties. A complete set of basic kinetic data including substrate specificity, affinity, interaction with inhibitors, and activation energy was obtained. These data closely resemble those of intact mitochondria, as far as they are available from the intact organelle. Mainly on the basis of kinetic data, the asymmetric orientation of most of the reconstituted carrier proteins were established. Several of their functional properties are significantly affected by the type of phospholipids used for reconstitution. All carriers which have been investigated in proteoliposomes function according to a simultaneous (sequential) mechanism of transport; i.e., a ternary complex, made up of two substrates and the carrier protein, is involved in the catalytic cycle. The only exception was the carnitine carrier, where a ping-pong mechanism of transport was found. By reaction of particular cysteine residues with mercurial reagents, several carriers could be reversibly converted to a functional state different from the various physiological transport modes. This “unphysiological” transport mode is characterized by a combination of channel-type and carrier-type properties.

    Notes: Abstract Traditional concepts of nutrient uptake and growth kinetics as linked by cell yield are presented. Phenomena affecting the kinetics are examined along with a discussion of those which lead to ambiguity. Concepts of flux control are presented to help understand the distribution of material along metabolic pathways. Specific affinity is described to relate nutrient accumulation rates to transporter density. It is shown to be a primary kinetic constant and the best available index of nutrient collection ability. As an aid to understanding, specific affinity is reexpressed in terms of membrane permeability. Formulations of nutrient transport rate as a function of cellular composition, particularly transporter and enzyme content and known as janusian kinetics, are described as an improvement to specific affinity theory. Procedures for quantified unidirectional fluxes are reviewed to identify the difference between gross and net transport rates of substrate. Collision frequency theory is used to show that in addition to total biomass, cell size and transporter density should also be included in rate equations describing microbial growth. Theory diversity suggests that one reason for microbial metabolic is that the likelihood of additional collisions of substrate molecules with a cell surface, after an initial collision, requires only a sparse distribution of transporter sites for maximal rate, leaving room for additional transporters able to collect other substrate types.

    Notes: Abstract The optimization of fermentation processes depends to a large extent on the modelling of microbial activity under complex environmental conditions where aeration is an important limiting and control factor. Simple relationships are used to establish the sensitivity of cultures to oxygen stress. Specific limitation coefficients which can be determined in laboratory reactors allow a projection to industrial operation and the definition of appropriate aeration and agitation profiles. Optimum control can be assured on the basis of directly measurable process parameters. This is shown for the case of ethanol production usingS. cerevisiae at high cell dry weight concentrations.

    Notes: Abstract Batch experiments on the simultaneous utilization of phenol (primary substrate) and 4-chlorophenol (cometabolic secondary substrate) demonstrated two critical substrate interactions. First, the cometabolic degradation of 4-chlorophenol was proportional to the rate of phenol oxidation, which provided the electrons for the initial monooxygenase reaction. Second, 4-chlorophenol inhibited the oxidation of the primary substrate, phenol. Modeling analyses of the degradation of phenol alone and of phenol and 4-chlorophenol together showed that the proportionality between phenol and 4-chlorophenol degradation rates averaged 0.1 mg 4-CP/mg phenol, which corresponds to 0.5% of the electrons generated by phenol oxidation being used as a cosubstrate for the monooxygenase reaction of 4-chlorophenol. In addition, modeling analyses suggest that 4-chlorophenol was a noncompetitive inhibitor of phenol oxidation for high phenol concentrations, but a competitive inhibitor for low phenol concentrations.

    Notes: Abstract Flash-induced amperometric signals were measured with a Joliot-type O2 rate electrode in spinach Photosystem II (PS II) membrane fragments exposed to very low concentrations of added hydroxylamine or hydrogen peroxide. In both cases ‘anomalous O2 signals’ were observed on the first two flashes, and oscillating four-flash patterns were observed on subsequent flashes. The anomalous signals were eliminated in the presence of catalase but not EDTA. The rise times of the O2-release kinetics associated with the anomalous signals were slow (ca. 20 ms with NH2OH and ca. 120 ms with H2O2) compared to the kinetics of O2 release on subsequent flashes and in control membranes (3–6 ms). It is proposed that when the intact PS II O2-evolving complex is perturbed with small concentrations of added reductant, H2O2 can gain access and bind to the complex. Bound H2O2 can then reduce lower S states in some centers leading to anomalous O2 signals on the first two flashes. A model is presented to explain both types of anomalous O2 production. Oxygen observed on the third and subsequent flashes is due to the normal photosynthetic O2-evolution process arising from the S3-state. Anomalous O2 production could be a protective mechanism in PS II centers subjected to stress conditions.

    The kinetics and regulation of M-xylose transport in Candida utilis (1993)

    Notes: Abstract Low-affinity (K m=67.6±3.2 mM) and high-affinity (K m=1.9±1.2 mM) D-xylose transport occur in Candida utilis grown, respectively, on D-glucose or D-xylose. Starvation of glucose-grown cells decreases the K m value (10.5±2.6 mm). The high-affinity system appearing during starvation required protein synthesis and it was inactivated when cells were exposed to glucose, by a process independent of protein synthesis. High-affinity transport was accompanied by transient alkalinization of yeast suspensions, indicating that it is a proton symport, whereas low-affinity transport was not. Both systems, however, were inhibited by metabolic inhibitors and by replacing H2O in the transport assay with D2O, indicating that both may be proton symports. Glucose and acetic acid also inhibited both high-and low-affinity xylose transport.

    Notes: Abstract Nitrous oxide reductase from Wolinella succinogenes was tested for benzyl viologen cation (BV+)-chlorinated methane oxidoreductase activity, using di-, tri- and tetra-chloromethanes, and for the inhibition of BV+-N2O oxidoreductase activity by these chloromethanes. No BV+-chlorinated methane oxidoreductase activity was detected. Any such activity, if it exists, must be less than 0.1% of the BV+-N2O oxidoreductase activity of the enzyme. Inhibition of the BV+-N2O oxidoreductase activity by dichloromethane was detected and was apparently reversible and non-competitive, as is the case with the small metal-ligand type inhibitors of the enzyme (e.g. acettlene, azide, cyanide and carbon monoxide). Trichloromethane was a weaker inhibitor and inhibition was not detected with tetrachloromethane.
