    Notes: By use of agarose gel electrophoresis, the sieving of spherical particles in agarose gels has been quantitated and modeled for spheres with a radius (R) between 13.3 and 149 mm. For quantitation, the electrophoretic mobility has been determined as a function of agarose percentage (A). Because a previously used model of sieving [D. Rodbard and A. Chrambach (1970) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 65, 970-977] was found incompatible with some of these data, alternative models have been tested. By use of an underivatized agarose, two models, both based on the assumption of a single effective pore radius (PE) for each A, were found to yield PE values that were independent of R and that were in agreement with values of PE obtained independently (PE = 118 nm × A-0.74): sieving by altered hydrodynamics in a cylindrical tube of radius, PE, and sieving by steric exclusion from a circular hole of radius, PE. The same analysis applied to a 6.5% hydroxyethylated commercial agarose yileded a steeper PE vs A plot and also agreement of the above tow models with the data. The PE vs A plot was significantly altered by both further hydroxyethylation and factors that cause variation in the electro-osmosis found in commercial agarose.

    Notes: Analogues of the human erythroid membrane skeletal component protein 4.1 have been identified in perfused rat tissues and human T and B lymphocyte cell lines, olyclonal antibodies were used which are specific for all domains of protein 4.1, the spectrin-actin-promoting 8-Kd peptide, the membrane-binding 30-Kd domain, and the 50-Kd domain. Antibody reactivity, by Western blotting of tissue homogenates, shows reactivity with proteins varying in molecular weight from 175 Kd to 30 Kd. Further, these protein 4.1 analogues appear to be expressed in a tissue-specific fashion. Of the analogues detected there appear to be at least three classes: analogues containing all erythroid protein 4.1 domains, analogues containing all domains but with modified antigenic epitopes, and analogues containing only some domains. Chemical cleavage at cysteine linkages indicates that in analogues containing the 30-Kd region the location of cysteine is highly conserved. This datum suggests that in nonerythroid 4.1 isoforms of higher molecular weight the additional protein mass is added to the amino terminal end (30 Kd end).

    Notes: Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) in platelets causes the immediate phosphorylation of pleckstrin, an apparent Mr 40-47,000 protein previously called 40K or P47. Pleckstrin presumably plays an important but as yet unknown role in mediating cellular responses evoked by agonist-induced phosphoinositide turnover. We have cloned the cDNA for pleckstrin from the HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell line by immunological screening of a λgt11 expression library (Tyers et al.: Nature 333:470-473, 1988) and now report further analysis of the pleckstrin sequence. Pleckstrin has a deduced Mr of 40,087 and is encoded by a 1,050-bp open reading frame which is preceded by a short open reading frame that terminates before the correct initiator methionine. A single polymorphic site was found in the coding region. An unusual pattern of sequence heterogeneity occurred about a poly(A) tract in the 3′ untranslated region. The 3.0-kb pleckstrin mRNA induced upon differentiation of HL-60 cells apparently has heterogeneous 5′ ends which undergo differential regulation during HL-60 cell maturation. Analysis by multiple sequence alignment with known PKC substrates identified a strong candidate site for phosphorylation by PKC and a potential Ca2+-binding EF-hand motif. No other similarities to proteins in current databases were found.

    Notes: Five crown ethers with four ring oxygen atoms and different types of pendant groups were used to prepare ion-selective electrodes by coating a membrane containing the crown ether on the tip of a silver wire incorporated in a flow cell. A flow injection analysis study was conducted to determine the potentiometric selectivities of the crown ethers for lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium ions. It was found that crown ethers with neutral side arms show selectivities for lithium over other ions, while those of acidic side arms show selectivities for potassium over the other ions. The effect of the addition of trioctylphosphine oxide to the electrode matrix was also investigated. A comparison is made between the potentiometric selectivities of the crown ethers for certain metal ions and their selectivities in extracting the ions into an organic phase.

    Notes: Carboxy-terminated polybutadiene neutralized with Cu2+ (CuPBD) and its blend with poly(styrene-co-4-vinylpyridine) (SVP) were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), and extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. The DSC results indicate that in the blend substantial mixing occurs in the CuPBD-rich phase, although complete miscibility is not achieved, and the SVP-rich phase remains relatively pure. The TEM micrographs indicate that the morphology, while irregular, is reasonably described as bicontinuous, with a domain size of order 100 nm. The SAXS patterns show that the ionic aggregates present in CuPBD are destroyed upon blending, which is interpreted as being due to steric hindrances between ionic groups coordinated to vinylpyridine nitrogens. The EXAFS radial structure function of the blend exhibits a marked decrease in the Cu-Cu peak in comparison with CuPBD, indicating a change in local structure upon blending. The results indicate that some of the SVP is miscible with CuPBD owing to complexation between the pendant pyridine groups and the Cu2+ ions, which disrupts the ionic aggregates. However, the two materials are not fully miscible, leading to a rather coarse two-phase morphology.

    Notes: By dissection of thiocholine-stained orbital preparations, it has been determined that three different nerve pathways link the pterygopalatine ganglion and the eye in cats. (1) Nerves from the proximal half of the ganglion join a plexus of nerves and ganglion cells in the rete mirabile of the maxillary artery. Branches of the internal carotid nerve also supply this plexus. Fine nerves from the plexus travel to the optic nerve and then to the eye, accompanying both the nasociliary nerve that passes through the rete and the ciliary arteries that arise from the rete. (2) One or more nerves from the nerve of the pterygoid canal and from a prominent accessory ganglion near the orbital apex course to the inferior optic nerve surface at the optic foramen; these then run distally along the optic nerve to fuse with ciliary nerves or to accompany ciliary arteries entering the eye. (3) Other nerves from the pterygopalatine ganglion travel medially around the extraocular muscle cone to join the ethmoidal and infratrochlear branches of the nasociliary nerve; some nerves from the ganglion then take a retrograde course to the optic nerve, where they join ciliary nerves or arteries to the eye. All three pathways may transmit sympathetic, parasympathetic and somatic sensory nerve fibers.

    Notes: Studies of gene expression during blastocyst formation in mouse preimplantation development have been limited by the amount of RNA available per embryo. Our present approach to this problem has been to construct a large, representative, blastocyst cDNA library in λgtll. Random hexadeoxynucleotides were used as primers with total blastocyst RNA serving as template. RNA collected from 4,100 32-64 cell embryos was used to generate a library with an initial size of 30 × 106 recombinants. By using clone frequency as a measure of relative mRNA abundance, our data support previous work on the relative and absolute amounts of actin, histone H2a, and intracisternal A particle. Furthermore, we provide estimates for the abundance of cytokeratin endo A, cytokeratin endo B, and β-tubulin from clone frequency data. Insert sizes for isolated clones range from 200 bp to 3.6 kb with full-length or near-full-length insert sizes for selected clones, indicating that random primer methods generate cDNAs which can represent a significant portion of the mRNA. We have so far characterized products whose abundance is equal to or greater than 0.002% of total RNA. This library offers the potential for the analyses of presumptive regulatory gene products in the mouse preimplantation embryo which are represented as low abundance (〈1% of mRNA) RNAs.

    Notes: Mast cell heterogeneity has been described on the basis of differential staining reactions, light microscopic morphology, anatomic location, degranulation after polyamines, biochemical contents, growth requirements, and reactions to lymphokines. We have demonstrated typical “connective-tissue mast cells” by using anatomic criteria, histological staining reactions, electron microscopy, and reaction to compound 48/80 in the guinea pig conjunctiva, eyelid skin, and ileum. A second, much larger population of cells in the ileal mucosa and the conjunctiva, and rarely in the eyelid skin stained reddish-blue with acid toluidine blue in tissue fixed in ethanol-acetate-lead subacetate (BLA) and with alkaline Giemsa in formaldehyde-fixed tissue, did not stain with ethanolic or acid toluidine blue in formaldehyde-fixed tissue or with alkaline Giemsa in BLA-fixed tissue, and did not degranulate after 48/80 treatment. These are features of the rat intestinal “mucosal mast cells”; however, ultrastructural and light microscopic studies with the orcein Giemsa stain demonstrated these cells in the guinea pig to be eosinophils. Tissue culture, biochemical, and immunological studies indicate the existence of a second type of mast cell (bone-marrow-derived mast cell), ultrastructurally almost indistinguishable from the connective tissue mast cell. Our studies demonstrate only one mast cell type in the guinea pig and support the contention that other forms of mast cells are immature forms or variants of the connective-tissue mast cell.

    Notes: Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (cAPK) mediates the effects of catecholamines and hormones that cause elevation of intracellular cyclic AMP levels. The holoenzyme is a tetramer consisting of catalytic (C) and cyclic AMP-binding regulatory (R) subunits. The type I and type II cAPK isoenzymes are defined by R subunits (RI and RI) of differing molecular weight, primary structure, and cyclic AMP-binding properties. Postembedding immunogold labeling procedures and specific polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to RI, RII, and C were used to study the subcellular distribution of cAPK sub-units in several tissues. In the rat parotid gland, both RI and RII were present in the cytoplasm, nuclei, and secretory granules of the acinar cells, whereas secretory granules of intercalated and striated duct cells were poorly labeled. These results confirmed that the acinar secretory granules are the source of R subunits previously identified in saliva by specific photoaffinity labeling techniques. Zymogen granules of pancreatic acinar cells and secretory granules of seminal vesicle cells were labeled with antibody to RII. Pancreatic and seminal fluids were shown to contain cyclic AMP-binding proteins. The granules of several endocrine cells (pituitary, pancreatic islet, intestinal) also labeled with RII antibody. Double labeling of ovarian granulosa cells showed that both RI and C were present in the nuclei and cytoplasm. The localization of cAPK subunits revealed by postembedding immunogold labeling is consistent with the postulated regulatory functions of these proteins in gene expression, cell proliferation, exocytosis, and various metabolic events The widespread occurrence of cAPK sub-units in secretory granules and their release to the extracellular environment suggests that they play an important role in secretory cell function.
