    Notes: Abstract The effect of monensin on the secretion of α-amylase and other enzymes from the aleurone layer of barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Himalaya) was studied by electrophoresis followed by fluorography and by pulse-chase and organelle-isolation experiments. Monensin markedly inhibits the secretion, but not the synthesis, of α-amylase, acid phosphatase, and at least four other proteins from the aleurone layer. Monensin treatment causes α-amylase to accumulate within the protoplast, but its effect on the different α-amylase isoenzymes is not equal. The accumulation of isoenzyme 2 is not influenced by monensin while isoenzymes 1, 3 and 4 are not secreted but rather accumulate in the cell when monensin is included in the incubation medium. The α-amylase and acid-phosphatase activities which accumulate within the aleurone cells following treatment with monensin are localized in an organelle having a buoyant density greater than that of endoplasmic reticulum and less than that of mitochondria. In pulse-chase experiments with [35S]methionine, labelled proteins accumulate in this organelle in the presence of monensin and do not appear in the incubation medium. We conclude that monensin inhibits the secretion of proteins from the barley aleurone layer by influencing their intracellular transport.

    A Technique for Estimating Polar Ozone Loss: Results for the Northern 1991/92 Winter Using EASOE Data (1999)

    Notes: Abstract In this paper we describe a technique for estimating chemical ozone loss in the Arctic vortex. Observed ozone and temperature profiles are combined with the model potential vorticity field to produce time series of vortex averaged ozone mixing ratios on chosen isentropic surfaces. Model-derived radiative heating rates and observed vertical gradients of ozone are then used to estimate the change in ozone that would occur due to diabatic descent. Discrepancies with the observed ozone are interpreted as being of chemical origin, assuming that there is negligible horizontal transport or mixing of air into the vortex. The technique is illustrated using ozone sonde measurements collected during the 1991/92 European Arctic Stratospheric Ozone Experiment (EASOE), meteorological analyses from the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) and radiative heating rates extracted from the Global Atmospheric Modelling Programme (UGAMP) 3D General Circulation Model. Our results show that there was photochemical ozone destruction inside the Arctic vortex in early 1992 with a loss between 475 K and 550 K (around 20 km) of 0.32±0.15 ppmv in the first 20 days of January, equivalent to a rate of 0.51±0.24%/day (at the 95% confidence level).

    Notes: Summary The effect of monensin on polysaccharide slime secretion by root tips of corn (Zea mays) was studied. Various treatment times and ionophore concentrations were tested: none resulted in inhibition of slime secretion. Because monensin changes the pH of the medium, its effect was also monitored in strongly buffered media and at different pH's. Even in such media, monensin did not inhibit slime secretion. We also measured the effect of the drug after a pulse with [3H]fucose or a pulse followed by a chase. The amount of labeled slimed secreted was not altered by the ionophore. However, 10μM monensin affected the development of root tips and drastically reduced their growth. We showed that monensin inhibits the secretion of α-amylase by the scutellum of the same plantlet. The importance of the nature of the secretory compound in relation to monensin inhibition of its secretion is discussed.
