    Notes: Abstract In the course of systematic investigations on low-molecular-weight compounds from the venom of Crotalidae and Viperidae, we have isolated and characterized at least three bradykinin-potentiating peptides (BPP-II, BPP-III, and BPP-V) from Bothrops neuwiedi venom by gel filtration on Sephadex G-25 M, Sephadex G-10 followed by HPLC. The peptides showed bradykinin-potentiating action on isolated guinea-pig ileum, for which the BPP-V was more active than of BPP-II, and BPP-III, rat arterial blood pressure, and a relevant angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) competitive inhibiting activity. The kinetic studies showed a K i of the order of 9.7 × 10−3 μM to BPP-II, 7 × 10−3 μM to BPP-III, and 3.3 ×10−3 μM to BPP-V. The amino acid sequence of the BPP-III has been determined to be pGlu-Gly-Gly-Trp-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro-Glu-Ile-Pro-Pro, and the amino acid compositions of the BPP-II and BPP-V by amino acid analysis were 2Glu-2Gly-1Arg-4Pro-lIle and 2Glu-2Gly-lSer-3Pro-2Val-Ille, with molecular weight of 1372, 1046, and 1078, respectively.

    Notes: Summary At the present time there exist two internationally accepted classifications for the grouping of malformations of extremities: The anatomically and clinically orientated classification by Swanson (1976) and the anatomically and genetically founded classification by Temtamy (1966) and Temtamy and McKusick (1969 and 1978). In the introduction, the phylogeny and ontogeny of the extremities are considered. Under the aspect of phylogeny and ontogeny the groups I Failure of formation of parts, II Failure of differentiation (separation) of parts, III Duplication and VI Congenital constriction band syndrome of Swanson's (1976) classification are discussed. It is found that this anatomically founded classification is largely confirmed in the use of latest morphogenetic criteria and that only few modifications may be called for. In the light of present-day genetic knowledge the use of new classifications published in the literature, for example that of the cleft hand, appear doubtful, as they are based on mere by clinical criteria.
