    Notes: Abstract InXenopus laevis oocytes injected with rat brain poly(A)+ RNA, perfusion with a high-K+ solution (96 mM KCl) generated an inward current (I HK) which was absent in water-injected oocytes. Part ofI HK was blocked by low concentrations of Ba2+ (half-maximal inhibitory concentration, IC50: 4.2 ± 0.5 μM). When serotonin (5-HT) was applied to these oocytes a transient inward oscillating Cl− current arising from activation of Ca2+ -dependent Cl− channels,I Cl(Ca), was observed. When this response decayed, a 30% reduction ofI HK could be detected. Electrophysiological characterization of the K+ channel down-modulated by 5-HT revealed that it is an inward rectifier. Antisense suppression experiments revealed that the 5-HT2C receptor mediates the down-modulatory effect of 5-HT. The nature of the modulatory pathway was investigated by application of phorbol esters and intracellular injection of protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, ethylenebis (oxonitrilo)tetraacetate (EGTA) and inositol 1, 4, 5-trisphosphate. The results demonstrate that PKC is responsible for the down-modulatory effect.

    Notes: Effective core potentials are utilized in conjunction with polarization propagator calculations of excited state properties. The propagator method employed is based on an antisymmetrized geminal power wave function as the reference state. Calculations are presented on the low-lying excited states of HF and NaH. All-electron and valence-electron results are compared for HF. The choice of basis set is found to be very important for obtaining good results.

    Notes: A consistent propagator approximation, denoted as the excitation propagator, is introduced. This propagator describes excitations between N-particle states and its approximation has properties required of consistent random phase approximation schemes. Several properties of this propagator are explored when based on a generalized antisymmetrized geminal power wavefunction. How singularities in the metric occur and how to remove them is discussed in detail. The excitation propagator is also contrasted with the principal (polarization) propagator.

    Notes: Semiempirical finite-field methods based on the MNDO, AM1, and PM3 Hamiltonians are employed to study the hyperpolarizability of polyenes {H(C2H2)nH, n = 2, 20}. These results are compared with ab initio results. Also of interest is the large n behavior and methods to extract a value per subunit are explored.

    Notes: A finite-field method for the calculation of polarizabilities and hyperpolarizabilities is developed based on both an energy expansion and a dipole moment expansion. This procedure is implemented in the MOPAC semiempirical program. Values and components of the dipole moment (μ), polarizability (α), first hyperpolarizability (β), and second hyperpolarizability (γ) are calculated as an extension of the usual MOPAC run. Applications to benzene and substituted benzenes are shown as test cases utilizing both MNDO and AM1 Hamiltonians.
