    Notes: Summary The interaction of nuclear protein extracted from rat liver and 5′-flanking DNA of the human insulin receptor gene was investigated with the aid of gel mobility shift analysis. When 5′-flanking DNA (-1255/-1206 or -385/-345 base pairs) was incubated with nuclear protein, two or three 32P-DNA species (protein binding DNA fragment(s) and free DNA fragment) were detected. These bands did not disappear in spite of increasing amounts of synthetic poly(dI-dC), showing that nuclear protein binds specifically to 5′-flanking DNA of the insulin receptor gene. Increasing amounts of long terminal repeat of mouse mammary tumour virus resulted in a reciprocal decrease in nuclear protein binding to 5′-flanking DNA of insulin receptor gene. These results suggest that 5′-flanking DNA of insulin receptor gene binds to the same nuclear protein to which long terminal repeat of mouse mammary tumour binds.

    Notes: Abstract Using double-barreled Cl−-sensitive microelectrodes, intracellular Cl− activity (A Cl i ) in the mouse lacrimal acinar cells in vitro was determined in both resting and secretory phases. In the resting stateA Cl i was 31 mmol/l which was 1.4 times higher than that predicted for the passive distribution according to the membrane potential (V m) of −41 mV. Addition of acetylcholine (ACh, 1μM) hyperpolarizedV m to −63 mV and decreasedA Cl i to 20 mmol/l which was still twice the equilibrium activity. A-23178 produced similar changes inV m andA Cl i to those induced by ACh. It was concluded that Cl− was actively accumulated in the acinar cells and, in the secretory phase, Cl− efflux was enhanced by the increased driving force and Ca2+-mediated increase in the Cl− permeability across the cell membrane.
