    Notes: Summary Biosynthesis of chondroitinase-resistant glycosaminoglycans as minor components was studied in the cartilages of chick embryos and of newborn chickens and rats. Sternal and knee cartilages were labeled in vitro with35SO 4 2− , and then35S-labeled glycosaminoglycans were analyzed. In rats up to 2 weeks old, only one glycosaminoglycan could be detected as heparan sulfate. In the chick embryos and the newborn chickens, however, keratan sulfate as well as heparan sulfate could be detected. As chondroitinase-sensitive glycosaminoglycans, large amounts of both chondroitin 4- and 6-sulfates were synthesized in the chick cartilage, but the synthesis of chondroitin 6-sulfate could scarcely be seen in the rat cartilage. The results seem to indicate that the biosynthesis of keratan sulfate has some relation to that of chondroitin 6-sulfate.

    Notes: Abstract NIN1 is an essential gene for growth of the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae and was recently found to encode a component of the regulatory subunit of the 26S proteasome. Thenin1-1 mutant is temperature sensitive and its main defect is in G1/S progression and G2/M progression at non-permissive temperatures. One of the two multicopy suppressors ofnin1-1, SUN2 (SUppressor of Nin1-1), was found to encode a protein of 523 amino acids whose sequence is similar to those ofDrosophila melanogaster diphenol oxidase A2 and the mouse mast-cell Tum− transplantation antigen, P91A. The C-terminal half of Sun2p was found to be functional as Sun2p at 25° C, 30° C, and 34° C but not at 37° C. The open reading frame (ORF) of theDrosophila diphenol oxidase A2 gene (Dox-A2) was obtained from a lambda phage cDNA library using the polymerase chain reaction technique. TheDox-A2 ORF driven by theTDH3 promoter complemented the phenotype of a strain deleted forsun2. ThisDox-A2-dependent strain was temperature sensitive and accumulated dumb-bell-shaped cells, with an undivided nucleus at the isthmus, after temperature upshift. This morphology is similar to that ofnin1-1 cells kept at a restrictive temperature. These results suggest thatSUN2 is a functional counterpart ofDox-A2 and that these genes play a pivotal role in the cell cycle in each organism.
