    Notes: Abstract The structural gene, nirK, for the respiratory Cu-containing nitrite reductase from denitrifying Pseudomonas aureofaciens was isolated and sequenced. It encodes a polypeptide of 363 amino acids including a signal peptide of 24 amino acids for protein export. The sequence showed 63.8% positional identity with the amino acid sequence of “Achromobacter cycloclastes” nitrite reductase. Ligands for the blue, type I Cu-binding site and for a putative type-II site were identified. The nirK gene was transferred to the mutant MK202 of P. stutzeri which lacks cytochrome cd 1 nitrite reductase due to a transposon Tn5 insertion in its structural gene, nirS. The heterologous enzyme was active in vitro and in vivo in this background and restored the mutationally interrupted denitrification pathway. Transfer of nirK to Escherichia coli resulted in an active nitrite reductase in vitro. Expression of the nirS gene from P. stutzeri in P. aureofaciens and E. coli led to nonfunctional gene products. Nitrite reductase activity of cell extract from either bacterium could be reconstituted by addition of heme d 1, indicating that both heterologous hosts synthesized a cytochrome cd 1 without the d 1-group.

    Notes: Summary The present study examined the presence and cellular distribution of angiotensinogen, the precursor to the angiotensin peptides, in the ovary of the normal cycling rat by immunocytochemistry. Angiotensinogen staining was present in the granulosa cells of maturing follicles and to a lesser extent in those undergoing atresia. Staining was not seen in the granulosa cells of primordial or early primary follicles. In maturing follicles intense staining for angiotensinogen was confined to the antral cell layers, cells of the cumulus oophorus and in the follicular fluid. Strong immunostaining was also seen in the germinal epithelium covering the ovary. Lighter angiotensinogen staining was observed in some parts of the cortical and medullary stroma and occasionally in corpora lutea. No variation in the intensity or pattern of angiotensinogen staining was observed throughout the estrous cycle. Comparison of the distribution of angiotensinogen with the previously described localization of renin, AII, angiotensin converting enzyme and AII receptors, suggests that there are a number of intra-ovarian sites at which AII could be produced.

    Notes: In this work we present an extension of the statistical associating fluid theory (SAFT) developed for associating fluids by applying this extension to polymer solutions and blends. The polymer molecule is modeled as a flexible chain made of bonded spherical segments. These segments interact with the Lennard-Jones potential. The extension of SAFT is compared with molecular simulation results for polymer solutions and blends. Since the same force model is used in the simulation and theory, this comparison is a strong test of the assumptions made in deriving the theory. Results are presented for pure polymers of up to 50 segments long, polymer solutions of a polymer 20 segments long dissolved in its own monomer, and blends of polymers of 25 segments each. The theory produces results that are in better agreement with simulation results than the Flory-Huggins theory for the systems studied.
