    Description: The molecular conformation of the halogen-free thyroxine analog 4-methoxy-3,5,3'-trimethyl-L-thyronine -n-acetyl ethyl ester has been determined by x-ray diffraction techniques. The unsubstituted parent compound, trimethylthyronine, has significant biological activity in rat thymocyte tests when compared with the thyroid hormone 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3). Although no activity data are available for the analog studied, it is presumed to be inactive because of the 4-methoxy blocking group. The observed conformation of this structure is similar to that found for the natural hormone T(3). The 3'-methyl group is distal, the overall conformation is cisoid, and the diphenyl ether conformation is twist-skewed. The results of this diffraction study show that methyl substituents are capable of maintaining the thyronine conformation required for hormonal activity; they suggest that iodine enhances hormone-protein binding because of the electronic effects it produces either by alteration of molecular charge distributions or by direct charge-transfer interactions with the serum or nuclear binding proteins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cody, V -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Sep 22;201(4361):1131-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/684433" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The reactive superoxide radical, O2-, formerly of concern only to radiation chemists and radiobiologists, is now understood to be a normal product of the biological reduction of molecular oxygen. An unusual family of enzymes, the superoxide dismutases, protect against the deleterious actions of this radical by catalyzing its dismutation to hydrogen peroxide plus oxygen.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fridovich, I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Sep 8;201(4359):875-80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/210504" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Throbin-activated human platelets cause agglutination of trypsinized, formalinized bovine erythrocytes. This lectin activity of stimulated platelets was blocked by galactosamine, glucosamine, mannosamine, lysine, and arginine, but not by N-acetylated sugars, other neutral sugars, or other amino acids. Inhibitors of the thrombin-induced lectin activity also blocked thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. It appears that a membrane surface component that has lectin activity mediates platelet aggregation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gartner, T K -- Williams, D C -- Minion, F C -- Phillips, D R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Jun 16;200(4347):1281-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/663608" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Incubation of ribonuclease with 0.1M mercaptoethanol at pH 8.5 can increase the enzyme's hydrolytic activity toward cytidine 2',3'-monophosphate (cyclic CMP) under standard assay conditions. Cation-exchange chromatography of the ribonuclease-thiol reaction mixture revealed seven fractions. The fraction with the highest activity had an approximate tenfold decrease in the apparent Michaelis constant for cyclic CMP with respect to native ribonuclease. The enhanced activity is a metastable property since this fraction reverts back to the control activity and chromatographic behavior of native ribonuclease on standing in solution at room temperature.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Watkins, J B -- Benz, F W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Mar 10;199(4333):1084-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/564548" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Biological organization may be viewed as consisting of two stages: biosynthesis and assembly. The assembly process is largely under thermodynamic control; that is, as a first approximation it represents a search by each structural molecule for its state of lowest chemical potential. The hydrophobic effect is a unique organizing force, based on repulsion by the solvent instead of attractive forces at the site of organization. It is responsible for assembly of membranes of cells and intracellular compartments, and the absence of strong attractive forces makes the membranes fluid and deformable. The spontaneous folding of proteins, however, involves directed polar bonds, leading to more rigid structures. Intercellular organization probably involves polar bonds between cell surface proteins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tanford, C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Jun 2;200(4345):1012-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/653353" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Human erythrocytes have been freeze-fractured, and the polypeptides associated with the separate halves of the membrane bilayer have been analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The transmembrane proteins were differentially separated by the fracture process. Although sialoglycoproteins associated with the outer half of the membrane, the anion transport protein (band 3) mainly remained with the inner half of the membrane. Well-defined fragments of the sialoglycoproteins were produced by the freeze-fracture procedure, indicating that selected covalent bonds of these transmembrane proteins were broken.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Edwards, H H -- Mueller, T J -- Morrison, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Mar 30;203(4387):1343-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/424755" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A laser-induced luminescence technique is introduced for probing the structure and equilibria of lanthanide complexes and lanthanide ion binding to macromolecules. The method involves the excitation of the 7F0 leads to 5D0 transition between nondegenerate levels in the europium(III) ion by means of an intense pulsed dye laser source. Excitation profits obtained by scanning the laser through the transition region reveal distinct peaks characteristic of individual europium(III) ion environments. The technique may be used to characterize the species present in complex equilibria in solution or to study europium(III) binding to macromolecules. Distinct europium(III) binding sites in thermolysin with long and short excited state lifetimes are observed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Horrocks, W D Jr -- Sudnick, D R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Dec 7;206(4423):1194-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/505007" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay for the insulin receptor has been developed employing receptor autoantibodies from the serum of a patient with insulin-resistant diabetes. The assay detects insulin binding sites at concentrations as low as 0.1 nanomolar; distinguishes between receptors originating from human placental membranes, human lymphoblastoid cells, and mouse liver membranes; and measures the receptor independently of its binding function. Down-regulation, or loss of binding after exposure to insulin, is associated with loss of immunoreactive receptor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Harrison, L C -- Flier, J -- Itin, A -- Kahn, C R -- Roth, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Feb 9;203(4380):544-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/83675" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The tertiary structures of all liganded hemoglobins in the R state differ in detail. Steric hindrance arising from nonbonded ligand-globin interactions affects the binding of ligands such as CO and cyanide which preferentially form linear axial complexes to heme; these ligands bind in a strained off-axis configuration. Ligands such as O2 and NO, which preferentially form bent complexes, encounter less steric hindrance and can bind in their (preferred) unstrained configuration. Linear complexes distort the ligand pockets in the R state (and by inference, in the T state) more than bent complexes. These structural differences between linear and bent complexes are reflected in the kinetic behavior of hemoglobin. Structural interpretation of this kinetic behavior indicates that the relative contributions of nonbonded ligand-globin interactions and nonbonded heme interactions to transition state free energies differ for linear and bent ligands. The relative contributions of these interactions to the free energy of cooperativity may also differ for linear and bent ligands. Thus the detailed molecular mechanism by which the affinity of heme is regulated differs for different ligands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Moffat, K -- Deatherage, J F -- Seybert, D W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Nov 30;206(4422):1035-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/493990" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Removal of fibrinopeptide B from human fibrinogen by reaction with the procoagulant enzyme from copperhead snake venom below 25 degrees C resulted in tight aggregation of the fibrinogen, which, in turn, progressively blocked a concomitant but sluggish release of fibrinopeptide A by the enzyme. When the clots obtained at less than 25 degrees C were warmed, they dissociated into soluble aggregates and monomers. Release of fibrinopeptide A then resumed, and a secondary coagulation followed. The aggregation induced by release of fibrinopeptide B itself involves a plasmin-susceptible segment located just distal to B in the B beta chain of fibrinogen, a segment previously shown to be of little importance in the aggregation induced by release of fibrinopeptide A.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shainoff, J R -- Dardik, B N -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Apr 13;204(4389):200-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/155308" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Succinyl derivatives of gramicidin were tested for their ability to form channels in planar artificial lipid bilayers. Both N-succinyldeformylgramicidin methyl ester and charged O-succinylgramicidin formed channels, but the channels had markedly different sizes and lifetimes. This implies that gramicidin forms channels by end-to-end association. However, the doubly charged N,O-bissuccinyldeformylgramicidin was inactive, which suggests that only end-to-end association of gramicidin may result in channel formation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bradley, R J -- Urry, D W -- Okamoto, K -- Rapaka, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Apr 28;200(4340):435-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/77040" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Seizures induced in the rat by electroshock or by injections of pentylenetetrazol increase the specific binding of diazepam to putative receptor sites in cerebral cortical membranes. The enhancement of diazepam binding results from a rapid increase in the number of available binding sites rather than a change in receptor affinity. The postictal increase in cortical benzodiazepine receptors suggests that the cerebral cortex might be more sensitive to the anticonvulsant effects of the benzodiazepines after seizures. This observation may be related to the mechanism of action of these drugs in the treatment of recurrent seizures such as status epilepticus.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Paul, S M -- Skolnick, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Nov 24;202(4370):892-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/715447" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Electrostatic effects dominate many aspects of protein behavior. When polypeptide chains fold up, most polar side chains seek the exterior, where they can be solvated. Water bound in the interior has been found between the domains of enzymes of the chymotrypsin family, and between the subunits of hemoglobin and tobacco mosaic virus protein. Assembly of this protein from disk to virus is triggered by electrostatic interactions between neighboring subunits. Lysozyme stabilizes the constellation of charges involved in the transition state of its substrate by both permanent and induced dipoles. All factors that lower the oxygen affinity of hemoglobin act by strengthening the salt bridges that constrain its quaternary deoxy (T) structure. Enzymes of thermophile bacteria owe their extra stability mostly to additional salt bridges. The rate of denaturation of hemoglobins by alkali is determined by the ionization of internal side chains with pK's of about 12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Perutz, M F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Sep 29;201(4362):1187-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/694508" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Application of information derived from a three-dimensional model of vasopressin bound to its antidiuretic receptor has resulted in the design and synthesis of a potent analog, [1-deamino, 2-phenylalanine, 7-(3,4-dehydroproline)]-arginine vasopressin; this analog has a specific antidiuretic activity of 13,000 +/- 1,250 units per milligram; noteworthy at these doses is the absence of any detectable pressor activity. Three modifications based on conformational considerations were introduced into the vasopressin molecule in preparing the analog: (i) to enhance binding, a double bond was introduced into the side chain of an amino acid residue occupying a corner position of a beta turn in the vasopressin conformation, (ii) the hydroxyl moiety was deleted from Tyr2, and (iii) to tighten the backbone structure and to enhance the enzymatic resistance of the analog, the NH2-terminal amino group was deleted.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Smith, C W -- Walter, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Jan 20;199(4326):297-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/619455" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Antibodies to insulin receptors purified from rat liver membranes do not complete with [125I]insulin for binding to the insulin receptor but do precipitate solubilized receptors labeled with [125I]insulin. These antibodies have the insulin-like activities of enhancing glucose oxidation and inhibiting epinephrine-induced lipolysis in rat adipocytes. Thus, antibody binds to the receptor at a different site from that to which insulin binds, yet the interaction can initiate an effective biological response. These results indicate that the previously studied insulin-binding sites are the physiological macromolecular receptors for insulin.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jacobs, S -- Chang, K J -- Cuatrecasas, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Jun 16;200(4347):1283-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/663609" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Covalent light chain dimers (L2) and cysteine-blocked L chain monomers readily react with partially reduced heavy (H) chains. A rapid disappearance of these blocked L chain species is followed by the appearance of covalent intermediates-HL, H2, and H2L-leading to fully assembled H2L2. The mechanism of initial disulfide bond formation between heavy and light chains is disulfide interchange.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kazin, A R -- Beychok, S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Feb 10;199(4329):688-90.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/415360" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The conformation of [Leu5]enkephalin is produced by a Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe beta bend stabilized by antiparallel hydrogen bonding between tyrosine and phenylalanine. On the basis of a comparison of the observed structure with the structure of known opiate agonists, three hydrophilic and two hydrophobic regions have been identified as contributing to the recognition of the molecule at the opiate receptor site.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Smith, D -- Griffin, J F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Mar 17;199(4334):1214-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/204006" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Space-filling models of yeast hexokinase, adenylate kinase, and phosphoglycerate kinase drawn by computer clearly portray the bilobal character of these phosphoryl transfer enzymes, and the deep cleft which is formed between the lobes. A dramatic conformational change occurs in hexokinase as glucose binds to the bottom of the cleft, which causes the two lobes of hexokinase to come together. A substrate-induced closing of the active site cleft is postulated to occur in other kinases as well. This change may provide a mechanism by which some of these enzymes reduce their inherent adenosine triphosphatase activity and could be a general requirement of the kinase reaction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Anderson, C M -- Zucker, F H -- Steitz, T A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Apr 27;204(4391):375-80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/220706" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Both normal human serum and supernatant from explanted malignant tumors contained a heat-stable low-molecular-weight factor that inhibited monocyte activation in vitro. In contrast, serum from individuals with solid tumors enhanced monocyte activation. It is suggested that the systemic activation of monocytes that occurs in malignant disease may be an appropriate host response but that successful tumors may continue to grow because they subvert the normal physiological signal for inhibition of macrophage activation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rhodes, J -- Bishop, M -- Benfield, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Jan 12;203(4376):179-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/758686" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The bis-acridine ring system forms the basis for new biophysical probes of novel stereochemistry. Spectral data indicate that certain alkylene bridged bis-9-aminoacridines have a parallel plane conformation of predictable interplane distance. The parallel plane conformation is independent of solvent and thus is different from nucleic acid systems. This stable conformation allows these compounds to be used as sensitive "rulers" for describing binding site geometry in cholinergic enzymes and in the delineation of the mechanism of allosteric control in acetylcholinesterase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Himel, C M -- Taylor, J L -- Pape, C -- Millar, D B -- Christopher, J -- Kurlansik, L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Sep 21;205(4412):1277-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/472743" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Human and mouse hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase subunits combine to form an active heteropolymer. Dimers form the basic subunit structure of the enzymes, yet the dimers can readily associate to form tetramers. The equilibrium between dimers and tetramers is significantly influenced by the ionic strength of the enzyme solvent.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Johnson, G G -- Eisenberg, L R -- Migeon, B R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Jan 12;203(4376):174-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/569362" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Like physicists striving to develop a unified field theory, immunologists are attempting to bring order to the microcosmos of defense reactions. Indications are that one of the most important constants in this microcosmos is the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) of the species. A test of any interpretation of the MHC's role in immunity is how well it explains this system's polymorphism. One of the most crucial questions an MHC hypothesis must answer is: Why are there so many alleles at this complex?〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Klein, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Feb 9;203(4380):516-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/104386" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Estradiol-binding proteins with the properties of putative estrogen receptors are present in cytosol extracts of embryonic mouse hypothalamus and other brain regions. These embryonic estrogen receptors are adultlike in their high affinity and limited capacity for estradiol, sensitivity to diethylstilbestrol, ability to adhere to DNA, and behavior during DNA-cellulose affinity chromatography. As early as 4 days before birth, mouse hypothalamus has approximately 40 percent of the adult concentration of hypothalamic estrogen receptors with these properties. These observations raise the possibility that embryonic rodent brain has the biochemical potential to respond to sex hormones and that the critical period of brain sexual differentiation could be initiated prenatally.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vito, C C -- Fox, T O -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 May 4;204(4392):517-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/432656" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
