    Notes: A study is made of the dependence of the effective permeability of sand-shale reservoirs on the geometry of the shale inclusions. Numerical simulations are described in which factors such as the orientation and the degree of anisotropy of the shales, their volume fraction and the permeability contrast ratio between the shale and the sandstone were varied. Two different reservoir models were used in the simulations: one in which the shales were in the form of random, overlapping spheroidal inclusions, and one in which the shales were generated by a geostatistical technique. The computed effective permeability data are compared with a variety of analytical models in an attempt to discover ‘rules of thumb’for the estimation of the effective permeability of sand-shale reservoirs for use in a range of practical situations. The main technical way in which this study advances on previous work is in its use of a computationally efficient, random walk algorithm for calculating the effective permeability, which has enabled larger volumes to be simulated and, hence, a thorough investigation of finite-size effects to be made. Another advantage of the work reported here is the general nature of the sand-shale geometries used in the numerical simulations and the extensive comparisons with analytical models.

    Notes: The atp operon of Escherichia coli directs synthesis rates of protein subunits that are well matched to the requirements of assembly of the membrane-bound H+-ATPase (α3β3γ1δ1σ1a1b2c10–15). Segmental differences in mRNA stability are shown to contribute to the differential control of atp gene expression. The first two genes of the operon, atpl and atpB, are rapidly inactivated at the mRNA level. The remaining seven genes are more stable. It has previously been established that the translational efficiencies of the atp genes vary greatly. Thus differential expression from this operon is achieved via post-transcriptional control exerted at two levels. Neither enhancement of translational efficiency nor insertion of repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP) sequences into the atplB intercistronic region stabilized atpl. We discuss the implications of these results in terms of the pathway of mRNA degradation and of the role of mRNA stability in the control of gene expression.

    Notes: A series of afp::lacZ fusions has been constructed for use in a study of translational coupling in the central region of the Escherichia coli atp operon. Five genes, atpE, atpF, atpH, atp A and atpG, were shown to be translationally coupled to various degrees of tightness. A new lac promoter vector, compatible with the afp::lacZ fusion vectors, was used to express individual atp genes in the same hosts as the fusion genes. The H+-ATPase subunits thus synthesized exercised no significant trans-regulation on the expression of the atp::lacZ fusions, indicating that the coupling is primarily cis. The mechanism of this coupling was investigated using in vitro mutagenesis. At least in the case of the pair atpHA, coupling seems to involve facilitated binding of fresh ribosomes to the atpA translational initiation regions.

    Notes: Abstract A possible approach for altering alkaloid biosynthesis in plants is the expression of genes encoding key enzymes of a pathway such as lysine decarboxylase (ldc) in transgenic plants. Two strategies were followed here: one focused on expression of the gene in the cytoplasm, the other on subsequent targeting of the protein to the chloroplasts. Theldcgene fromHafnia alvei was therefore (a) placed under the control of the 1′ promoter of the bidirectional Tr promoter fromAgrobacterium tumefaciens Ti- plasmid, and (b) cloned behind therbcS promoter from potato fused to the coding region of therbcS transit peptide. Bothldc constructs, introduced intoNicotiana tabacum with the aid ofA. tumefaciens, were integrated into the plant genome and transcribed as shown by Southern and northern hybridization. However, LDC activity was only detectable in plants expressing mRNA under the control of therbcS promoter directing the LDC fusion protein into chloroplasts with the aid of the transit peptide domain. In plants expressing the processed bacterial enzyme cadaverine levels increased from nearly zero to 0.3–1% of dry mass.
