    Notes: [Auszug] MANY unrelated reasons prompt the chemical modification of peptides, proteins, oligonucleotides, sugars and poly-saccharides, lipids and glycolipids. The unifying elements are found in the chemical methods most commonly used and in the preferred (or most readily available) reagents. This book deals ...

    Notes: Abstract Each cryptomonad strain contains only a single spectroscopic type of biliprotein. These biliproteins are isolated as ≈50000 kDa αα'β2 complexes which carry one bilin on the α and three on the β subunit. Six different bilins are present on the cryptomonad biliproteins, two of which (phycocyanobilin and phycoerythrobilin) also occur in cyanobacterial and rhodophytan biliproteins, while four are known only in the cryptomonads. The β subunit is encoded on the chloroplast genome, whereas the α subunits are encoded by a small nuclear multigene family. The β subunits of all cryptomonad biliproteins, regardless of spectroscopic type, have highly conserved amino acid sequences, which show 〉 80% identity with those of rhodophytan phycoerythrin β subunits. In contrast, cyanobacteria and red algal chloroplasts each contain several spectroscopically distinct biliproteins organized into macromolecular complexes (phycobilisomes). The data on biliproteins, as well as several other lines of evidence, indicate that the cryptomonad biliprotein antenna system is ‘primitive’ and antedates that of the cyanobacteria. It is proposed that the gene encoding the cryptomonad biliprotein β subunit is the ancestral gene of the gene family encoding cyanobacterial and rhodophytan biliprotein α and β subunits.

    Notes: Abstract Two crytophycean phycocyanins (Cr-PCs), Hemiselmis strain HP9001 Cr-PC 612 and Falcomonas daucoides Cr-PC 69 were purified and characterized with respect to bilin numbers, types and locations. Each biliprotein carried one bilin on the α subunit and three on the β subunit. Cr-PC 612 carried phycocyanobilin at α-Cys-18, β-Cys-82, and β-Cys-158, and a doubly-linked 15,16-dihydrobiliverdin at β-DiCys-50,61. Cr-PC 569 carried phycocyanobilin at α-Cys-18 and β-Cys-82, a singly-linked Bilin 584 at β-Cys-158, and a doubly-linked Bilin 584 at β-DiCys-50,61. This work, in conjunction with earlier studies on Cr-PE 545, Cr-PE 555, Cr-PE 566, and Cr-PC 645, shows that there is no conserved location for the bilin with longest wavelength visible absorption band among these proteins, and, consequently, that there is no conserved energy transfer pathway common to all native cryptophycean biliproteins. Only phycocyanobilin or phycoerythrobilin is found at β-Cys-82; there is greater bilin variability at the other three attachment sites.

    Notes: Abstract Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 mutants defective in phycobiliprotein biosynthesis or phycobilisome assembly were generated by transposon mutagenesis. Four mutants with grossly reduced content of the major phycobiliprotein, phycocyanin, were found to have insertions within the cpcBACDEFG1G2G3G4 operon coding for phycocyanin biosynthesis and assembly. The insertion in mutant B646 separated the promoter from the open reading frames and eliminated production of the phycocyanin α (CpcA) and β (CpcB) subunits. Insertion in cpcC in mutant B642 eliminated production of the L36 Rlinker polypeptide required for assembly of phycocyanin into the distal discs of the phycobilisome rod substructures. Mutants B64328 and B64407 had insertions, respectively, in cpcE and cpcF, genes coding for the subunits of the heterodimeric lyase which catalyzes the attachment of phycocyanobilin to the phycocyanin apo-α subunit. Mutant SB12, often unable to survive under low light, was found to have an insertion in the apcE gene coding for the large core-membrane linker (L128 CM) that provides the scaffold for assembly of the phycobilisome core. DNA sequencing 3′ of apcE revealed genes apcABC, coding for the α and β subunits of allophycocyanin and for the small core linker L7.8 C. Amino acid sequence comparisons showed that the ApcA and ApcB proteins are 37% identical and that each of these polypeptides is highly similar to corresponding polypeptides from the distantly related filamentous strains Calothrix sp. PCC7601 and Mastigocladus laminosus.

    Notes: The development of sensitive, rapid, and accurate methods and apparatus for high-throughput short tandem repeat (STR) analysis will be critical for the use of microsatellite alteration in cancer screening. Here we show that STR-based bladder cancer diagnosis can be performed using capillary array electrophoresis and two-color labeling with energy-transfer (ET) fluorescent primers. Rapid (≤35 min) separations are achieved on capillary arrays using replaceable separation matrices and the allelic ratios are quantitatively determined with a precision of ± 10%. With this precision, a variation of 20% was considered diagnostically significant. These methods provide a significant improvement in the speed, ease, and precision of STR analyses compared to slab gel electrophoresis.
