    Notes: Summary The effects of colchicine and cytochalasin B on grey crescent formation in frog (Rana pipiens) and toad (Bufo arenarum) eggs were determined. Colchicine prevented the appearance of the grey crescent, but this inhibition was not due to the absence of an aster. Cytochalasin B did not inhibit grey crescent formation, nor did it inhibit certain activation events such as cortical granule breakdown or cortical contraction. Cytochalasin B caused a detachment of the cortex from the cytoplasm and induced the formation of a morphological grey crescent in non-activated eggs. The results suggest that microtubules may play several roles in grey crescent formation and that a change in the attachment of the cortex to the cytoplasm may also be involved.

    Notes: Summary Work by others has shown that ultraviolet (UV) irradiation of the vegetal half of the uncleaved frog egg causes defects in neural development. We find that the earliest effect of irradiation ofRana pipiens eggs is to prevent grey crescent formation, the first indication of dorso-ventral polarization of the egg. The UV effect on the grey crescent and on neural development shows similarities in timing, dose-responses, and reversal by cold. We suggest that the UV effect on neural morphogenesis may be caused by the inhibition of cortical-cytoplasmic movement involved in grey crescent formation.

    Notes: Mixtures of both synthetic and naturally occurring (human plasma) cholesteryl esters have been examined by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). A magnetic sector mass spectrometer was used and a variety of ionization modes were assessed with a view to obtaining structural information on intact cholesteryl esters. By employing ammonia as reagent gas, with negative ion scanning, spectra were produced from which the nature of steryl and fatty acyl moieties could be readily deduced. Analyses were performed at an ion source temperature of 300°C in order to maintain the integrity of the gas chromatographic profile. The technique described is of general use for the GC/MS analysis of steryl esters, particularly in conjunction with magnetic sector instruments.

    Notes: Mixtures of a specific group of proteins, the major urinary proteins (MUPs), believed to have a role in odorant binding, have been analysed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The data obtained from conventional transformed electrospray data confirm that the molecular weights of the protein mixtures, deduced from published sequences, lie in the molecular weight range 18600 to 19 000 Da. Application of maximum-entropy analysis to the raw electrospray data has confirmed a heterogeneity in MUP composition, consistent with allelic similarities (and differences) between the different mouse strains. This work demonstrates the use of maximum entropy in the assessment of protein content and in the subsequent resolution enhancement of naturally occurring protein mixtures containing components of closely similar molecular mass.

    Notes: An azurin, a small respiratory copper protein from the bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens biotype G, has been studied by mass spectrometry to determine sequence information. The study of homologously related proteins by mass spectiometry is particularly attractive, since the correct nature of major parts of the deduced sequences can be confirmed by comparison with the sequences of the protein from related organisms. An oxidized tryptohan residue has been identified amongst the products from a cyanogen bromide digest of this wild type azurin. In the same digest, a product is also found to arise from cleavage of the peptide chain at the C-terminal side of the same tryptophan residue. These results are rationalized.

    Notes: Nucleic acid extracts from 1400-year-old radish seeds recovered from excavations at Qasr Ibrim, Upper Egypt, have been analysed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry. tert-Butyldimethyisilyl derivatives of the purine and pyrimidine bases were prepared, after treatment of the nucleic acid extracts with concentrated formic acid. Under electron ionization these derivatives yield prominent [M-57]+ ions that were found to be of value for use in analyses employing selected-ion monitoring and product-ion studies. These two techniques were used in the sensitive and selective detection of nucieotide bases in crude extracts of ancient seeds. The results obtained were supported by complementary analyses of hydrolysates of ancient nucleic acids and authentic bases by means of retention time and spectral comparisons. This work demonstrates for the first time that mass spectrometry can be used in the direct chemical examination of nucleotide bases in ancient materials. This analytical approach is currently being used to address questions regarding the possible chemical (diagenetic) changes occurring in the nucleic acids of ancient biological material.

    Notes: Rhodamine phalloidin (Rph) staining was used to examine the microfilament organization of the Xenopus laevis egg cortex during the early stages of fertilization. Unactivated eggs possessed a cytochalasin B (CR)-insensitive Rph-stained matrix that was reorganized upon egg activation and diminished in the presence of CB. Xenopus laevis sperm caused a temporary local increase in Rph staining on the Xenopus cortex. In CB-treated eggs, the local increases of cortical Rph staining later changed to a Rph-free area. These temporary local increases of cortical Rph staining were also observed when Notophthalmus viridescens sperm fertilized Xenopus and Rana pipiens eggs, and were followed by the appearance of concentric rings of stained and unstained areas. Our data suggest that Xenopus and Notophthalmus sperm have activities that can both organize and disrupt the cortical filamentous actin of the Xenopus egg. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: High-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS) with thermospray ionization has been applied to the analysis of free ecdysteroids (polyhydroxylated steroids that serve as arthropod moulting hormones). Of a range of analytical conditions that were tested, optimum results were obtained by the use of re versed-phase HPLC using a methanol + water mixture containing 0.1 M ammonium acetate. The positive-ion spectra of ecdysteroids showed pseudo-molecular ions, [M + H]+, and fragment ions corresponding to the sequential losses of hydroxyl groups. The [M + H - H2O]+ and [M + H - H2O]+ ions were the most abundant for all the compounds tested. Ecdysteroids bearing a C-20 hydroxyl group (e.g. 20-hydroxyecdysone) showed ions characteristic of cleavage of the side-chain from the steroid nucleus. This mode of fragmentation was much less obvious in the case of ecdysteroids lacking C-20 hydroxylation (e.g. ecdysone). Full-scan mass spectra were readily obtained from 1 μg of free ecdysteroids, while a limit of detection of 5 ng (signal-to-noise ratio 3) was attained in the selected-ion monitoring mode. The application of HPLC/MS to the study of ecdysteroids in biological materials is demonstrated by the analysis of extracts of newly laid eggs of the desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria) and pupae of the cotton leafworm (Spodoptera litoralis).

    Notes: Aminoglycoside antibiotics including gentamicin, bekanamycin, tobramycin, lincomycin, neomycin, kanamycin, and ribostamycin have been determined by CE-EC with copper clectrodes. Both copper wall-jet electrodes (WJEs) and copper on-capillary electrodes (OCEs) were evaluated. The OCEs provided μM detection limits, superior stability and reproducibility (2-3% relative standard deviation in oxidation current), and a simple instrumental set-up without the need for capillary/electrode alignment. The analytical capabilities of the Cu-OCE were examined, following the optimization of CE conditions, for the seven aminoglycosides above; and the practical utility of this approach was demonstrated through the determination of aminoglycoside antibiotics in three pharmaceutical preparations.
