    Notes: The cloacal sacs of Leptotyphlops dulcis are nonglandular, posterior evaginations of the cloaca. The median cloacal gland is tubuloalveolar. Similar unpaired cloacal glands as well as paired sacs are noted in certain colubrid snakes. Terminology applied to these cloacal derivatives is discussed, and a standardization of names is provided.

    Notes: The ontogeny of various middle-ear structures was examined in 11 groups of chicks between 10 days embryonic and adult. Measurements of the tympanic membrane surface area and height, columella length, and that of the columella footplate, annular ligament, and oval window area were obtained using video micrographs and computer digitization techniques. The oval window matures first at 53 days post-hatching, whereas the columella achieves adult size at 74 days. The tympanic membrane surface area is the last middle-ear variable studied to reach adult size (79 days post-hatch). The columella increases its length from 0.63 mm (10 days embryonic) to 2.73 mm in the adult. The tympanic membrane area expands by 280% whereas the columellar footplate area increases by 11x. As a result, the pressure amplification of the middle ear due to the tympanic membrane/columellar footplate area ratio improves by over 400%. These data further contribute to our understanding of the functional development of the middle ear. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A step leading to the formation of the covalent complexes between porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) and 7-[(alkylcarbamoyl)amino]-4-chloro-3-ethoxyisocoumarins (alkylHNCO-EICs) is the formation of the non-covalent Michaelis complex. No average structures are available for the Michaelis complexes of PPE with alkylHNCO-EICs. We present the results of an initial step in obtaining these structures and have determined kinetic constants as well. The kinetic results indicate that formation of the Michaelis complex is what differentiates the effectiveness of these inhibitors in inactivating PPE. The structural and kinetic results together suggest that the structure of the Michaelis complex is necessary for the design of potent alkylHNCO-EIC inhibitors of PPE. Two novel alkylHNCO-EICs are predicted to be the best inhibitors of this series. An alternate mechanism for serine protease inhibition is also proposed. Evidence for, and studies that may add support to, the hypothesized mechanism are discussed. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Tyrosine 319 of E. coli topoisomerase I is shown to be the activesite tyrosine that becomes covalently attached to a DNA 5′ phosphoryl group during the transient breakage of a DNA internucleotide bond by the enzyme. The tyrosine was mapped by trapping the covalent complex between the DNA and DNA topoisomerase I, digesting the complex exhaustively with trypsin, and sequencing the DNA-linked tryptic peptide. Site-directed mutagenesis converting Tyr-319 to a serine or phenylalanine completely inactivates the enzyme. The structure of the enzyme andits catalysis of DNA strand breakage, passage, and rejoining are discussed in terms of the available information.

    Notes: Porous hollow cellulose fibers have been used to separate a nonflowing enzyme solution of alkaline phosphatase from a continuous flow of substrate. The porosity of the hollow fiber membrane allows the substrate and product to diffuse freely through the membrane while restricting the permeation of the enzyme. The resulting “immobilized” enzyme system has been shown to behave as a continuous reactor - converting p-nitrophenylphosphate to p-nitrophenol. By varying the concentrations, flow rate, etc., either diffusion or enzyme kinetics can be studied. The continual influx of product and removal of substrate at steady state allows the study of kinetics of relatively short half-life enzymes and unstable systems.

    Notes: The glucose oxidase and catalase activities immobilized to the γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane derivative of nickel-impregnated silica alumina was controlled by several factors. The most important of these was enzyme concentration. In constructing the dual immobilized enzyme catalyst, competition between the two enzymes for available binding sites was observed. The order of addition of the various reactants during immobilization was also important. Higher glucose oxidase activities were immobilized when glutaraldehyde was added concurrently with the enzyme, while maximal coupling of catalase occurred if glutaraldehyde was first added to react with the amino derivative of the silica alumina support, excess reagent washed away, and then the catalase added. Bovine serum albumin, which aids in the crosslinking of glucose oxidase, hindered the coupling of the enzyme to the support particles.

    Notes: Batch fermentations were run at varying agitation rates and were either pressurized to 1 bar (15.2 psig) or nonpressurized. Agitation and pressure both affect the level of dissolved hydrogen gas in the media, which in turn influences solvent production. In nonpressurized fermentations volumetric productivity of butanol increased as the agitation rate decreased. While agitation had no significant effect on butanol productivity under pressurized conditions, overall butanol productivity was increased over that obtained in the nonpressurized runs. Maximum butyric acid productivity, however, was found to occur earlier and increased as agitation increased. Peak hydrogen productivity occurred simultaneously with peak butyric acid productivity. The proporation of reducing equivalents used in forming the above products was determined using a redox balance based on the fermentation stoichiometry. An inverse relationship between the final concentrations of acetone and acetoin was found in all fermentations studied. The results show that agitation and pressure are important parameters for solvent productivity in acetone-butanol fermentation.

    Notes: Pressed and wilted samples of sweet sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench var. Rio] were ensiled for periods up to 155 days. A kinetic study of the biochemical changes which occurred during ensiling showed that in wilted sorghum ensilage invert sugars and mannitol levels collectively were maintained at 65% of the original ferment able sugar content of the sorghum. The acidic environment produced by ensiling also served as a pretreatment that resulted in enhanced yields of reducing sugar when the sorghum was contacted with cellulolytic enzymes. The quantity of sugar obtained from enzymatic hydrolysis more than compensated for carbohydrate used by organisms during the ensiling process. Both Saccharomyces uvarum and Clostridium acetobutylicum were able to ferment a medium constituted from pressed sorghum juice and the solution resulting from enzymatic hydrolysis of sweet sorghum ensilage.

    Notes: A technique has been developed for characterizing the in vivo behavior of key enzymes from intermediate measurements. The technique is based on the identification of characteristic reaction paths, and it depends on the time scale separation characteristics of the systems. It is shown that useful information can be obtained from the phase plots of properly selected intermediate pairs or combinations which typically show process insensitive algebraic relations approached on time scales short compared to those of most practical interest. These characteristic reaction paths provide useful global measures of enzyme activity. The mathematical basis of reaction path analysis is investigated using linear transformation techniques. General theorems are developed predicting the existence of characteristic reaction paths as asymptotic limits whenever there is effective time scale separation. These limits are reached when fast reactions are relaxed, and available evidence suggests that these conditions will occur for the majority of reaction networks.
