    Notes: Summary The mechanisms by which sperm cells recognize and fuse with the egg and central cell during double fertilization in flowering plants are unknown. To identify membrane surface molecules that might function in fertilization, we immunized mice with isolated sperm ofBrassica campestris and screened the polyclonal sera and monoclonal hybridoma supernatants by immunocytochemistry for binding to isolated sperm cells. We identified three cell lines producing hybridoma supernatants which bind to sperm cell surfaces inB. campestris and further analyzed the properties of one of these, BRSP1. The molecular mass of the epitope to BRSP1 was 54 kDa, and was not glycosylated. Although the antibodies were immunoglobulin M, neither removal of carbohydrates nor competition with antibodies which recognize arabinogalactan decreased binding. BRSP1 recognized sperm ofPlumbago zeylanica, Nicotiana tabacum. Arabidopsis thaliana, andEruca vesicaria and generative cells ofLilium longiflorum and ofNarcissus tazetta but did not recognize sperm ofHelianthus annuus, Gerbera jamesonii, orZea mays. Antibodies to plant sperm allow us to probe sperm membranes for functional components.

    Notes: Summary The enzyme thimet oligopeptidase (EC3.4.24.15, EP24.15) is responsible for the hydrolysis of a number of neuropeptides. Despite much research examining its substrate specificity, little is known about the conformational requirements of its active site. We have used 1D1H and 2D TOCSY NMR experiments to assign the proton resonances of the EP24.15 inhibitor,N-[1-(R, S)-carboxy-3-phenylpropyl]-Ala-Ala-Tyr-p-aminobenzoate (cFP), and 2D ROESY NMR to investigate whether cFP exhibits any conformational preferences in CD3OD and in aqueous CD3OD. Molecular modelling of charged cFP in the gaseous phase generated a number of conformations that were consistent with the NMR data obtained in CD3OD. Analogous modelling on the uncharged cFP did not result in conformations consistent with any of the NMR data, but did suggest that, under non-polar conditions, cFP could adopt a hairpin conformation which would allow simultaneous coordination of the two carboxyl groups of cFP to the zinc ion in the active site of EP24.15.
