    Notes: Summary The compositional distributions of coding sequences and DNA molecules (in the 50-100-kb range) are remarkably narrower in murids (rat and mouse) compared to humans (as well as to all other mammals explored so far). In murids, both distributions begin at higher and end at lower GC values. A comparison of homologous coding sequences from murids and humans revealed that their different compositional distributions are due to differences in GC levels in all three codon positions, particularly of genes located at both ends of the distribution. In turn, these differences are responsible for differences in both codon usage and amino acids. When GC levels at first+second codon positions and third codon positions, respectively, of murid genes are plotted against corresponding GC levels of homologous human genes, linear relationships (with very high correlation coefficients and slopes of about 0.78 and 0.60, respectively) are found. This indicates a conservation of the order of GC levels in homologous genes from humans and murids. (The same comparison for mouse and rat genes indicates a conservation of GC levels of homologous genes.) A similar linear relationship was observed when plotting GC levels of corresponding DNA fractions (as obtained by density gradient centrifugation in the presence of a sequence-specific ligand) from mouse and human. These findings indicate that orderly compositional changes affecting not only coding sequences but also noncoding sequences took place since the divergence of murids. Such directional fixations of mutations point to the existence of selective pressures affecting the genome as a whole.

    Notes: Summary A member of the young PV Alu sub-family is detected in chimpanzee DNA showing that the PV subfamily is not specific to human DNA. This particular Alu is absent from the orthologous loci in both human and gorilla DNAs, indicating that PV subfamily members transposed within the chimpanzee lineage following the divergence of chimpanzee from both gorilla and human. These findings and previous reports describing the transpositional activity of other Alu sequences within the human, gorilla, and chimpanzee lineages provide phylogenetic evidence for the existence of multiple Alu source genes. Sequences surrounding this particular Alu resemble known transcriptional control elements associated with RNA polymerase III, suggesting a mechanism by which cis-acting elements might be acquired upon retrotransposition.

    Notes: Summary A new statistical test has been developed to detect selection on silent sites. This test compares the codon usage within a gene and thus does not require knowledge of which genes are under the greatest selection, that there exist common trends in codon usage across genes, or that genes have the same mutation pattern. It also controls for mutational biases that might be introduced by the adjacent bases. The test was applied to 62 mammalian sequences, the significant codon usage biases were detected in all three species examined (humans, rats, and mice). However, these biases appear not to be the consequence of selection, but of the first base pair in the codon influencing the mutation pattern at the third position.

    Notes: Summary The identification of genetically coherent populations is essential for understanding human evolution. Among the culturally uniform ethnic groups of west Africa, there are two geographically distinct populations with high frequencies of sickle-cell hemoglobin (HbS). Although the HbS mutation in each group is found on distinguishable chromosomes 11, these populations have been assumed to be parts of a single population. Analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in these populations demonstrated that the two populations identified by alternative chromosomes 11 bearing HbS have distinct distributions of mitochondrial genotypes, i.e., they are maternally separate. These studies also showed that, contrary to expectation, the mtDNA of some individuals is heteroplasmic. For nuclear loci, a comparison of the frequency of alternative alleles established that these populations are genetically distinct. Both the mitochondrial and nuclear data indicate that these populations have been separate for approximately 50,000 years. Although HbS in the two populations is usually attributed to recent, independent mutations, the duration of the separation and the observed geographic distribution of the population allow for the possibility of an ancient origin of HbS. Assuming an ancient mutation and considering the known biogeography, we suggest that HbS protected selected populations from malaria in rain forest refuges during the most recent ice age.

    Notes: Abstract This assessment focuses on the concentrations of some chemicals present in theAgaricus bisporus mushroom, the cancer-inducing doses of these chemicals or mushroom used in the animal experiments, the total amounts of these chemicals or mushroom needed to induce cancer in these mice, and the estimated total amounts of these chemicals or mushroom needed to induce cancer in humans. By adding the estimated amounts of chemicals needed to induce cancer and by comparing it with the amount of raw mushroom needed to induce the same effect, it becomes obvious that we have accounted for less than 2% of the carcinogenic components of theAgaricus bisporus mushroom. Since some unavailable data handicapped this assessment, it should be regarded as tentative and subject to further adjustment.

    Notes: Abstract Data obtained from the literature on the annual pattern of human conceptions and plasma melatonin at high latitudes indicated that simple annual rhythms do not exist. Instead, prominent semiannual rhythms are found, with equinoctial troughs and solsticial peaks. A prominent semiannual environmental event is the magnetic disturbance induced by the solar wind. The semiannual magnetic disturbances are worldwide, but most pronounced in the auroral zones where the corpuscular radiation enters the atmosphere. Magnetic indices that predominantly reflect these events were obtained from the literature and correlated with the melatonin and conception data. Significant and inverse correlations were found for Inuit conceptions and the melatonin data. The correlations obtained for 48 contiguous states of the United States indicated that only the extreme northern states exhibited this relationship. These data were compared with a previous correlational study in the United States which established that sunshine was correlated with conceptions in the middle latitude and southern states. An hypothesis of dual control by electromagnetic and magnetic energies is proposed: melatonin is a progonadal hormone in humans controlled by both factors, depending on their relative strength. Other studies are reviewed regarding the possible factors involved in determining the annual pattern of human conceptions. Demographic studies of geographic variation in temporal patterns of conceptions, with particular regard to variations of the magnetic fields on the earth's surface, may provide some insight into the efficacy of these different factors.

    Notes: Summary Distribution of glycogen particles in semithin and ultrathin sections of biopsy samples from human muscles subjected to either short- or long-term running were investigated using PAS and Periodic Acid-ThioSemiCarbazide-Silver Proteinate (PA-TSC-SP) staining methods. Glycogen particles were predominantly found immediately under the sarcolemma or aligned along the myofibrillar Iband. After long-term exhaustive exercise type-1 fibers with a few or no glycogen particles in the core of the fibers were frequently observed. The subsarcolemmal glycogen stores of these “depleted” type-1 fibers were about three times as large as after exhaustive short-time exercise. Another indication of utilization of subsarcolemmal glycogen stores during anaerobic exercise was that many particles displayed a pale, rudimentary shape. This observation suggests fragmental metabolization of glycogen. Thus, depending on type of exercise and type of fiber differential and sequential glycogen utilization patterns can be observed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Influence of Substituents on the Enthalpy, Entropy and Volume of Activation in the Decomposition of Organic PerestersThe influence of the ester group on the decomposition of organic peroxides was studied on peresters of the pivalic and neodecanoic acid with tert-butyl, tert-amyl, 1-methyl-1-propylpentyl and 1,1,4-trimethylpentyl groups at temperatures of 393 to 473 K and pressures up to 3000 bar using a flow method. As expected the half-live times decrease with increasing temperature and increase with rising pressure. With increasing bulkiness of the substituents the rates of decomposition as well as the enthalpies of activation increase. This surprising fact can be explained by the simultaneous increase of the entropies and the volumes of activation.
    Notes: Der Einfluß der Estergruppe auf den Zerfall organischer Peroxide wurde an Perestern der Pivalin- und der Neodecansäure mit tert-Butyl-, tert-Amyl-, 1-Methyl-propylpentyl- sowie 1,1,4-Trimethylpentylresten bei Temperaturen von 393 bis 473 K und Drücken bis 3000 bar in einer Strömungsapparatur untersucht. Die Zerfallshalbwertszeiten nehmen erwartungsgemäß mit steigender Temperatur stark ab und mit steigendem Druck zu. Mit zunehmender Größe der Substituenten steigen sowohl die Zerfallsgeschwindigkeiten als auch die Aktivierungsenthalpien. Dieser überraschende Effekt kann durch die Vergrößerung der Aktivierungsentropie und des Aktivierungsvolumens erklärt werden.

    Description / Table of Contents: On the Lewis Acidity of Nickel(0), III. Alkali Metal Hydridotrialkylaluminate Complexes of Ni(CDT)Ni(CDT) reacts with hydridotrialkylaluminates of the alkali metals in ether/THF or ether/amine mixtures at temperatures below -50°C to form the temperature-sensitive compounds [MA(n-Donor)n]+[R3Al—H—Ni(CDT)]- (1-7) (MA = Li, Na; R = Me, Et, iBu). An Al—H—Ni three-centre bond is present in these complexes. On the basis of NMR data, the strength of the hydridoaluminate-nickel bond and the charge on nickel, caused by the hydridoaluminate residue, are compared with the corresponding characteristics of other ligand-Ni(CDT) complexes in which donor-acceptor σ-bonds are present.

    Description / Table of Contents: On the Lewis Acidity of Nickel(0), I. Methyllithium Complexes of Nickel(0)The synthesis and properties of the methyllithium complexes of nickel(0) of the type (n-Donor)m-(LiCH3)Ni0(π-Ligand)n (1a-c, 16a-c, 20a-c) [n-Donor = chelating amine or THF; π-Ligand = CDT, ethene, or CO] are described. The structure of (PMDTA)(LiCH3)Ni(C2H4)2 (1b) has been determined by X-ray crystallography.  -  In these ate complexes, a carbanionic methyl group is σ-bonded to a nickel atom, the acceptor strength of which depend on the π-ligands. The chemical and spectroscopic properties indicate that the Ni—CH3 bond in the carbonyl complex is largely covalent whereas in the CDT and ethene compounds it is more polar. The CDT complex is thermolabile in solution. The findings are in agreement with the following series of increasing acceptor strength: Ni(CDT) 〈 Ni(C2H4)2 〈 Ni(CO)3.
    Notes: Es wird über die Synthese und Eigenschaften der Methyllithium-Komplexe von Nickel(0) (n-Donor)m(LiCH3)Ni0(π-Ligand)n Wir bezeichnen mitπ-Liganden solche Liganden, die als π-Akzeptoren mit einem Übergangsmetallatom dπ—pπ—oder dπ—dπ-Rückbindungen auszubilden vermögen (Alkene, CO, auch Phosphane);n-Donoren solche Liganden, die als „harte Basen“ (Ether, Amine) über ihre freien Elektronenpaare vornehmlich Hauptgruppenmetall-Ionen, d.h. „harte Säuren“ komplexieren;σ-Donoren solche Liganden, die  -  ohne über Akzeptororbitale zu verfügen  -  entweder polare Bindungen enthalten und Mehrzentrenbindungen eingehen können (Metallalkyle und -hydride) oder ein freies Elektronenpaar bereitstellen (Carbanionen, Phosphorane, Hydrid-Ion), wobei σ-Bindungen zu einem niederwertigen Übergangsmetallatom ausgebildet werden. (1a-c, 16a-c, 20a-c) mit Chelataminen oder THF als n-Donoren und CDTAbkürzungen: CDT = trans,trans,trans-l,5,9-Cyclooctadien; COT = Cyclooctatetraen; PMDTA = Pentamethyldiethylentriamin; TMEDA = Tetramethylethylendiamin; MA+A = Alkalimetall- bzw. quartäres Ammonium-Kation., Ethen oder CO als π-Liganden berichtet. Die Struktur von (PMDTA)(LiCH3)Ni(C2H4)2 (1b) wurde röntgenographisch bestimmt.  -  In diesen at-Komplexen ist eine carbanionische Methylgruppe über eine σ-Bindung an ein Nickelatom gebunden, dessen Akzeptorstärke von den π-Liganden abhängt. Chemische und spektroskopische Eigenschaften der Komplexe lassen für CDT oder Ethen als π-Liganden auf vergleichsweise polare, für den CDT-Komplex in Lösung dazu thermolabile Ni—CH3-Bindungen schließen, während für den Carbonyl-Komplex aufgrund von 13C-NMR-Daten eine überwiegend kovalente Ni—CH3-Bindung anzunehmen ist. Die Befunde stehen mit folgender Reihe zunehmender Akzeptorstärke im Einklang: Ni(CDT) 〈 Ni(C2H4)2 〈 Ni(CO)3.
