    Notes: Abstract This review will focus on the recent advance in the study of effect of transmembrane Ca2+ gradient on the function of membrane proteins. It consits of two parts: 1. Transmembrane Ca2+ gradient and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase; 2. Effect of transmembrane Ca2+ gradient on the components and coupling of cAMP signal transduction pathway. The results obtained indicate that a proper transmembrane Ca2+ gradient may play an important role in modulating the conformation and activity of SR Ca2+-ATPase and the function of membrane proteins involved in the cAMP signal transduction by mediating the physical state change of the membrane phospholipids.

    Notes: Abstract In order to investigate the effect of transmembrane Ca2+ gradient on Gs mediated coupling of β-AR and adenylyl cyclase, β-AR from duck erythrocytes and Gs and adenylyl cyclase from bovine brain cortices were co-reconstituted into asolectin liposomes with different transmembrane Ca2+ gradient. These proteoliposomes were proven to be impermeable to water-soluble substances. The results obtained indicate that a physiological transmembrane Ca2− gradient (1000-fold) is essential for higher stimulation of adenylyl cyclase by hormone-activated β-AR via coupling to Gs and can be further enhanced by the decrease of such Ca2+ gradient within certain range (100 fold) following Ca2+ influx into cells during signal transduction. Fluorescence polarization of DPH revealed that transmembrane Ca2+ gradient modulates adenylyl cyclase and its stimulation by hormones through mediating a change in lipid fluidity. Correspondent conformational changes of β-AR were also detected from the fluorescence spectra and quenching of Acrylodan-labelled β-AR in those proteoliposomes. It is suggested that a proper transmembrane Ca2+ gradient is essential for the optimal fluidity of the phospholipid bilayer in the proteoliposomes, which favors the formation of a suitable conformation of the reconstituted β-AR and thus promotes the stimulation of adenylyl cyclase activities by hormone-activated β-AR via Gs.

    Notes: A free radical copolymerization model is proposed for simulating the reaction rates and conversions of styrene monomer and unsaturated polyester resins during curing. This model is based on film theory in which the rate constants reflect both reaction and diffusion resistances. Differential scanning calorimetry in combination with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy is used to measure the overall and individual reactivities of reacting species. Model parameters are determined from experimental data. The applicability of this model is demonstrated in a cure simulation.

    Notes: Yeast nucleoproteins were chemically phosphorylated with phosphorus oxychloride (POCL3). Studies using 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, stability to pH and lysine estimation all indicated that the ∊-amino group of lysine was the principal functional group phosphorylated. Phosphorylation of ca. 30% of the lysine residues resulted in removal of more than 85% of contaminant ribonucleic acid from protein precipitated at pH 4.2. Phosphorylation did not alter the amino acid composition of yeast proteins and was reversible under acidic conditions. Based on the data, a method for the preparation of phosphorylated yeast protein with low levels of nucleic acid is proposed.

    Notes: A recent design procedure for perforated plate extraction columns requires extension to include jetting conditions at each perforation. For this purpose, correlations are obtained for jet length, jet contraction, drop size, and mass transfer coefficients in disperse phase controlled liquid-liquid systems. Experimental variables include nozzle size, flow velocity, and physical properties.

    Notes: This study enables the extension of a recent design procedure for perforated plate extraction columns to include operation under jetting conditions. Correlations of experimental data are given for jet length, jet contraction, drop size, and mass transfer rates in continuous phase controlled liquid-liquid systems. Systems exhibiting very low mass transfer rates were used, and this gave significantly different results from those obtained earlier with moderate rates of mass transfer.

    Notes: A kinetic model has been developed for radical chain growth type of reactive polymer processing operations. This model incorporates considerations of the molecular diffusion that is described by a free volume theory and the basic reaction mechanism of the free-radical chain polymerization. Experimental results from the bulk styrene polymerization and a reaction of sheet molding compound (SMC) showed good agreement with the model.

    Notes: The formation, textures, and optic characteristics of the ethyl-cyanoethyl cellulose [(E-CE)C]/acrylic acid (AA) mesophase were studied using polarizing microscopy, spectro-photometry, and small-angle light scattering (SALS). The disklike, oily streak, planar, pseudoisotropic, polygonal textures and the texture of domains gathered randomly were observed in the mesophase. The polygonal texture in unitary mesomorphic solutions can be regarded as the texture from the combination of deformed mesophase aggregates with the disclike texture. The mesomorphic solution exhibits vivid colors when the concentration is about 42-52 wt % because of its selective reflection to visible light. The wavelength of the light that is selectively reflected shifts to the shorter wavelength, with increasing concentration. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Ethyl-cyanoethyl cellulose [(E-CE)C]/cross-linked polystyrene (PS) composites were prepared via polymerization of styrene in (E-CE)C/styrene solution with glycol diacrylate as a cross-linking reagent. The polymerization of the solution, morphology, and miscibility of (E-CE)C/PS composites were studied with polarizing microscopy, small-angle light scattering (SALS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was found that the mixing state of the (E-CE)C/PS system and the thermal stability of composites were modified by cross-linking of PS. In the intensively cross-linked composite prepared from the anisotropic solution, there existed cylindrical domains in which (E-CE)C spherulites were dispersed in PS. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
