    Notes: A vibrational force field for the polypeptide chain has been developed for normal-mode analysis of such molecules. It can reproduce observed frequencies of known structures to within about 5 cm-1. We review the application of this technique to conformational problems in peptides (β-turns and their model compounds), polypeptides [the αII-helix and crystalline poly(glycine II)], and proteins (bacteriorhodopsin and glucagon).

    Notes: 1H-nmr studies of [pGlu6]SP6-11, [gpGlu6,mPhe7]SP6-11, and [pGlu6,N-CH3Phe7]SP6-11 in DMSO-d6 reveal characteristic chemical shifts, 3JNH-αCH, temperature dependence, as well as deuterium exchange half-times. Marked similarities are revealed for the two first analogs, whereas the N-methylated analog is clearly different. Possible conformations are considered.

    Notes: The 36-amino acid avian pancreatic polypeptide has been studied by x-ray analysis at 0.98-Å resolution and refined using a restrained least-squares technique to an agreement factor of 15.6%. The polypeptide, which has a compact globular structure with a hydrophobic core, comprises a polyproline-like helix (residues 2-8) and an α-helix (residues 14-32). The molecule forms symmetrical dimers linked through zinc atoms in the crystal lattice. The high-resolution analysis defines sequence-dependent distortions in the α-helical parameters due to hydrogen bonding of water molecules and side chains. The thermal parameters indicate an increased flexibility of the main chain at the turn between the helices and in the C-terminal residues. For the first time, six-parameter anisotropic thermal ellipsoids have been refined for each atom; these define the directions of the molecular motions in the polypeptide, indicating concerted vibrations. The physiological roles of conformation, flexibility, and dynamics of this polypeptide hormone are discussed.

    Notes: We have carried out a systematic analysis of the solid-state conformational preferences of a number of linear homo-oligoprolines (to the tetramer) by ir absorption and x-ray diffraction. The peptides present different chiral sequences (tacticities), various types (urethane and amide) of N-protecting groups, and free and blocked C-termini (which imply different capabilities of forming H-bonds). The following conclusions can be drawn: (i) values for the geometry of the prolyl residue and the peptide bond in the cis and in the trans conformations are proposed; (ii) in general the conformational angles ϕ and ψ in the linear homo-oligoprolines have values appropriate for the polyproline II structure (conformation F); (iii) the pyrrolidine ring shows various types of puckering with no apparent relation to the backbone conformation; (iv) Pro-Pro peptide bonds generally take the trans conformation, the few cases of cis conformation being formed by Pro residues of different chirality; (v) the single H-bond donor  -  OH, when present, is always bonded to H-acceptors, which can be either the urethane or the amide or the peptide carbonyl but never the carbonyl group of the  -  COOH moiety.

    Notes: Myelin basic protein isolated from bovine white matter is known to consist of a mixture of three or more “charge isomers”, which can be separated by cation-exchange chromatography. We are using 360-MHz 1H-nmr spectroscopy to establish the chemical and structural differences among them. Preliminary studies by difference spectroscopy between two of the isomers suggest (a) all aromatic residues, and probably their nearest-neighbors, are unchanged; (b) the less cationic isomer lacks one (or two) of its C-terminal Arg residues; and (c) a significant fraction of the two Met residues in the less cationic isomer is present as methionine sulfoxide.

    Notes: A hydrophobic linear peptide has been synthesized and studied over a range of environments using several complementary spectroscopic approaches, including nmr, CD, and vibrational spectroscopies. The sequence of this model peptide, carbobenzoxy-L-Pro-D-Phe-D-Ala-L-Pro-NHCH3, was designed such that a small number of “folded” conformations, stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonding, would be accessible to it. Additionally, the extremely hydrophobic character of the peptide favors its interactions with hydrophobic regions of a membrane. The conformational impact of the membrane environment on the peptide, and the effect of the peptide on lipid organization have been explored both in micellar media and in vesicles. To facilitate nmr analysis, the peptide has been synthesized with one of the prolines perdeuterated. Results of these studies reveal that the peptide experiences a microenvironment of moderate polarity in micellar media and causes changes in lipid structure in a vesicle that are indicative of a hydrophobic peptide-lipid interaction.

    Notes: Most of a protein surface is potentially antigenic, consisting of numerous overlapping domains each complementary to antibody-combining sites. These domains may include peptide sequences that are demonstrably antigenic but only when antibodies from the appropriate host individuals and species are used. Methods for locating antigenic peptide sequences are described in which hydrophilic polyamide supports are used for peptide synthesis, then solid-phase radioimmunoassay with antisera and protein A. Most antigenic domains, however, comprise amino acid side chains contributed by two or more nearby polypeptide chains. Such domains can be identified by comparing the cross-reactivities of groups of very closely related proteins towards monoclonal antibodies raised to one of them. Such studies, using myoglobins, have identified a number of residues not previously shown to be antigenic and have provided a guide for the choice of synthetic peptides which are likely to carry several immunodominant side chains. One such peptide corresponding to residues (72-89) of beef myoglobin has been shown, using CD and antibodies to the parent protein, to have interesting conformational and antigenic properties. The peptide (25-55) is also antigenic.

    Notes: A series of novel, functionalized catecholamines (congeners) has been synthesized in which, formalistically, the N-isopropyl group of isoproterenol has been extended by a linear alkyl chain of varying length, terminated by a carboxyl group. Model amide derivatives have also been prepared in order to optimize the biological activity of these derivatives and also to aid in the design of appropriate peptides for the synthesis of conjugates. As a result of these studies, a series of amino acid and monodisperse peptide carriers, containing p-aminophenylalanine as the point of attachment for the drug, was prepared, together with the corresponding conjugates. In vitro and in vivo evaluation of the congeners, model amides, and conjugates has demonstrated that the biological activity of these derivatives is extremely sensitive to structural modifications at a point far-removed from the pharmacophore, in both the congener amide and conjugate series. A number of the model amides and conjugates have proven to be highly active when tested in both in vitro and in vivo test systems. The implications of these results in terms of a novel structure-activity approach to drug design are discussed.

    Notes: Antineoplastic drugs such as daunomycin, adriamycin, methotrexate, 5-fluorouridine, cytosine arabinoside, and platinate were bound to antibodies directly or via a polymeric bridge. The drug antibody conjugates retained most of their drug and antibody activities when tested in vitro. Daunomycin-antibody conjugates were shown to penetrate tumor cells in the conjugated form. In animals, daunomycin-antibody conjugates were at least as effective chemotherapeutically as the corresponding free drugs and considerably less toxic. In some tumor systems, the daunomycin-antibody conjugates represented an improvement over the free drug. This improvement was restricted in some tumors to a particular injection route of the tumor and the treatment.

    Notes: We describe a synthetic method aimed at specifically coupling poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) to proteins without altering their spectroscopic properties. To do so, we have first modified the alcohol end group of PEO to an acid end group (PEO-COOH). Coupling of PEO-COOH to Gly A1 methylsulfonylethyloxycarbonyl (Msc) protected insulin yielded NαB1,N∊B29-(PEO)2-insulin. Conversely, coupling of PEO-COOH to insulin whose Gly A1 and Lys B29 amino groups were protected with Msc yielded NαB1-PEO-insulin. The products were obtained in a spectroscopically pure form and characterized by uv and CD spectroscopy. Conformational and biological studies are in progress.

    Notes: The crystal structure and conformation of the synthetic cyclic tetrapeptide, cyclo(L-Pro-Sar)2, was determined by x-ray analysis. The peptide crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with cell parameters a = 9.277(1), b = 12.884(1), and c = 15.581(2) Å. The crystal structure was solved by the symbolic addition procedure for direct phase determination and least-squares refinement using 1796 reflections, which led to the final R value of 0.043. This structure provides the first example observed in a crystal of a cyclic tetrapeptide in which all four peptide units have been found in the cis conformation with ω angles deviating slightly by 2°-10° from the ideal value of 0°. It was also found that the two Pro Cα-CO single bonds assumed a trans′ (ψ = 159.6° and 158.4°) conformation. Adjoining average planes of the peptide groups fall at nearly right angles to each other. The pyrrolidine ring conformations of the two prolyl residues are in the envelope form, with Cγ carbon out of the least-squares planes for the remaining four atoms.

    Notes: Molecular-mechanics calculations have been carried out on the base-paired hexanucleoside pentaphosphates d(TATATA)2, d(ATATAT)2, d(A6)·d(T6), d(CGCGCG)2, d(GCGCGC)2, and d(C6)·d(G6) in both A- and B-DNA geometries. The calculated relative energies of these polymers are consistent with the relative stabilities of the polymers found experimentally. In particular, the results of our calculations support the observation that the homopolymer d(A)n·d(T)n is more stable in a B-DNA conformation, while the homopolymer d(G)n·d(C)n is more stable in an A-DNA conformation. The molecular interactions responsible for these differential stabilities include both inter- and intrastrand base stacking, as well as base-phosphate interactions. While definitive experiments on the heteropolymer stabilities have not yet been carried out, the results of our calculations also suggest a greater stability of the purine-3′,5′-pyrimidine sequence over the pyrimidine-3′,5′-purine sequence in both the A- and B-conformations. The reason for this greater stability lies in the importance of the inherent directionality (5′ → 3′ vs 3′ → 5′) of phosphate-base and base-base interactions. The largest conformation change observed on energy refinement is sugar repuckering, which occurs mainly on pyrimidine-attched sugars and only in the B-DNA geometry. We suggest a molecular mechanism, specifically, differential base-sugar steric interactions involving neighboring sugars, to explain why this repuckering occurs more with d(A6)·d(T6) than with other isomers.

    Notes: We examined three sonicated, specific-seqiemce polydeoxynucleotides in solution over a wide range of concentrations of several salts by 13P-nmr spectroscopy, and we found that the alternating copolymer poly(dAdT)·poly(dAdT) exhibits a dinucleotide repeat unit in all five salts and at all concentrations studied, as indicated by the presence of a doubled in its 31P-nmr spectra. The two components of the doublet show selective shift effects. The upfield component is assigned to dApdT in the gauche--gauche- conformation and shifts upfield in all four monovalent salts used, relative to a single-stranded oligonucleotide control. The downfield component is assigned to dTpdA in the trans-gauche- conformation and shifts downfield with increasing CsF concentration but remains essentially constant in LiCl, NaCl, and CsCl. These changes indicate a fast noncooperative transition for poly(dAdT)·poly-(dAdT) from a presumed right-handed dinucleotide-repeat B-form to another conformation with a dinucleotide-repeat structure, via a continuum of structures that may differ in the extent of the winding of the double helix. Ethanol causes the upfield component to collapse into the other component, indicating conversion to a structure with a mononucleotide repeat unit and a trans-gauche- conformation. Up to 1M Mg2+ appears to have no significant effect on the phosphodiester conformations of poly(dAdT)·poly(dAdT). By contrast, poly-(dGdC)·poly(dGdC) gives a slow cooperative transition from what is considered to be a right-handed regular B-form to a left-handed Z-form on increasing MgCl2 and NaCl concentrations, although we observed no changes in chemical shifts below the transition points. The homopolymer poly(dA)·poly(dT) exhibits no unusual shift effects or transitions upon the addition of salts when compared to the oligonucleotide control and is considered to be a regular B-form with a gauche--gauche- phosphodiester backbone conformation. These differences emphasize the distinct secondary structures of DNAs of different sequences and their selective responses to changes in solution conditions.

    Notes: Seven dinucleoside monophosphates containing 2′-halogeno-2′-deoxypurine nucleoside residue, dAfl-U, dAcl-U, dAbr-U, dAio-U, dGfl-U, and dIfl-C, were chemically synthesized and investigated by 1H-nmr spectroscopy at 300 MHz. The sugar and backbone conformations of these compounds were analyzed by the spectral pattern of furanose proton resonances; and the extents of base-base interaction were estimated from chemical shifts and their temperature-dependent changes of base-proton resonances. It is found that the population of C3′-endo conformer and the extent of base-base interaction decrease as the electronegativity of 2′-substituent decreases in dAx-U (x = fl, cl, br, and io) series. The C3′-endo (3E) population and the base-base interaction in Nfl-U (N = A,G)-type dimers as well as dIfl-C are relatively higher than the corresponding natural ribo-dimers but can be recognized as grossly similar to the conformation of regular RNA dimers.

    Notes: We studied the Raman spectra of the zwitterionic glycylglycine crystal (GG) and its N-deuterated analog. A normal coordinate analysis on its α-crystalline form was performed and the effects of intra-and intermolecular couplings are discussed. A modified Urey-Bradley potential was used as a model of the intramolecular force field. Factor group splittings are described by the use of intermolecular potentials consisting of nonbonded atom-atom interactions and dipole-dipole interactions. Effects of hydrogen bonds on the vibrational frequencies of amino and carboxylate groups are also analyzed.

    Notes: The ir absorption and CD conformational analyses of solutions of the protected 2-9 fragment of the peptaibol antibiotics emerimicins III and IV \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \rlap{--} (Aib_3 \rlap{--} )L - Val - Gly - L - Leu\rlap{--} (Aib_2 \rlap{--} ) $\end{document} and related short sequences are consistent with the presence of a right-handed α-helix for the octapeptide, while the tri-, tetra-, and pentapeptides adopt a 310-helix, either right- or left-handed, depending on the amino acid sequences. The structural preferences of solid-state \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ Z\rlap{--} (Aib_3 \rlap{--} )L - Val - OMe $\end{document} and \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ Z\rlap{--} (Aib_3 \rlap{--} )L - Val - Gly - OMe $\end{document} have been determined by x-ray diffraction. In accord with the solution data, incipient 310-helices, formed by two and three β-turns, have been found for the tetra- and pentapeptides, respectively. The tetrapeptide helix has the left-handed screw sense, while that of the pentapetide is right-handed, thus confirming the conclusions of the CD analysis of the solution.

    Notes: Isomeric oligopeptides composed of five methionyl residues and one glycyl residue or of five γ-methyl-L-glutamyl residues and one glycyl residue all exhibit marked differences in retention on normal-phase silica. When the glycyl residue is at internal positions of hexa or heptapeptides, the peptide elutes most rapidly form the μPorasil column. Comparison of the effect of positional isomerism on retention in short oligopeptides with the effect on retention of hexamers and heptamers suggests that a change in peptide conformation may be responsible for the change in oligopeptide mobility.

    Notes: The CD spectrum of an enzymatically derived sodium hyaluronate (NaHA) segment preparation with chain length 18 ± 3 disaccharide units [NaHAseg, ( NaGlcUA GlcNAc)15-20°. NaGlcUA, sodium D-glucuronate; GlcNAc, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose] in H2O was recorded to 180 nm using a computer-controlled vacuum-uv CD instrument. Near 190 nm the spectrum is of low intensity, similar to the sum of the free monosaccharide contributios, attributed to the π-π* transitions of the acetamido and carboxylate substituents. In contrast, much smaller oligosaccharides, also derived from high-molecular-weight NaHA by enzymatic digestions, show CD spectra in H2O with prominent bands centered near 190 nm. The oligosaccharide spectra can be matched as linear combinations of interior sugar residue (= NaHAseg) and end sugar residue CD contributions. End residues from oligosaccharides of the type (NaGlcUA-GlcNAc)n show a negative CD band near 190 nm. End residues from oligosaccharides of the reverse sequence (GlcNAc-NaGlcUA)n show a positive CD band near 190 nm. Averaging of the two end-residue spectral contributions yields an approximate match for the spectrum of NAHAseg below 200 nm. It is proposed that the low intensity CD of NaHA in the π-π* region is the result of large-magnitude, oppositely signed contributions, which can be visulized by studying oligosaccharides.

    Notes: The structure of a crystalline cellulose II-hydrazine complex has been determined by x-ray diffraction methods as part of an investigation of cellulose-solvent interaction. The complex studied was that formed when Fortisan fibers were swollen in hydrazine and then vacuumdried. The unit cell is monoclinic with dimensions a = 9.37 Å, b = 19.88 Å, c = 10.39 Å, and γ = 120.0° and contains disaccharide segments of four chains, with one hydrazine per glucose residue. In view of the limited x-ray intensity data, the structure has been determined based on an approximate unit cell containing two chain segments, with a = 4.69 Å, using the linked-atom least-squares refinement procedures. The refined model contains antiparallel cellulose chains that are linked by both intermolecular hydrogen bonds and hydrogen-bonded hydrazine molecules. The parallel chains in the 020 planes are packed in register, leading to stacks of chains analogous to those in chitin. All the hydroxyl groups are satisfactorily hydrogen-bonded, and each hydrazine forms four donor and two acceptor hydrogen bonds, including an N—H…N bond between hydrazines. From this work it can be seen that the interaction of cellulose II with hydrazine involves scission of the intermolecular hydrogen bonds followed by disruption of the stacks of quarter-staggered chains. The latter effect is probably necessary for hydrazine to act as a cellulose solvent.

    Notes: Empirical force-field calculations and ir and 1H-nmr spectra indicate that five-membered (C5) and seven-membered (C7eq) hydrogen-bonded rings are the preferred conformations of acetyl-L-Phe p-acetyl and p-valeryl anilides in nonpolar media. The C5/C7eq ratio was found to be dependent on the dryness of the solute and the solvent. This fact and the results from conformational-energy calculations suggest that a molecule of water participates in the stabilization of the C7eq conformation.

    Notes: The interaction of the amino terminal half-molecule of histone H4 with duplex DNA has been studied by fiber x-ray diffraction. Changes induced in the diffraction pattern of B-DNA by the presence of the bound peptide have been Fourier-analyzed and the results presented in terms of a deweighted radial projection of the electron density. We conclude that the peptide binds on the major groove side of the sugar-phosphate chain.

    Notes: Recent studies of the neurophysins and associated neuropeptide hormones have addressed both the biosynthetic pathways by which these noncovalent protein-peptide complexes are derived in neurosecretory neurons and the nature of the noncovalent interactions likely to occur during transport and storage in neurosecretory granules within the neurons. In vitro translation of hypothalamic mRNA and sequencing of cDNA obtained from this mRNA have yielded chemical evidence that each complex of hormone and major neurophysin is made through a common precursor molecule. The mature complexes obtained upon proteolytic processing of precursors exhibit interdependent hormone binding and self-association interactions. Photoaffinity labeling and quantitative affinity chromatography have helped detect and define the binding surfaces involved. Further study of the structural nature of these surfaces is being carried out using large neurophysin fragments obtained by limited tryptic proteolysis.

    Notes: Macrocyclic molecules can serve as ion carriers when their polar groups form an inner cage to capture ions while their hydrophobic groups form an outer layer to dissolve the molecule in lipid membranes. A “template method” has been developed for high-yield synthesis of a whole variety of macrocyclic esters, amides, and other families which may show ionophoric properties. In order to select the more promising compounds for synthesis, energetic and conformational characteristics of such molecules have been calculated from empirical energy functions. Calculations are examined using known structures and are employed to predict the properties of molecules not yet synthesized.

    Notes: For a better understanding of the molecular nature of the antigen-specific T-cell recognition system, continuous T-cell lines specific to the synthetic polypeptide antigen poly(Tyr,Glu)-poly(DLAla)--poly(Lys) [(T,G)-A--L] were established from C3H.SW (high-responder) activated T-cells, cloned, and characterized. These lines and their derived clones are also constitutive secretors of antigen-specific T-cell replacing helper factors. The secreted T-cell helper factor was shown to possess MHC determinants as well as V-region determinants, or more specifically, idiotypic determinants that are cross-reactive with those expressed on (T,G)-A--L-specific antibodies of the same mouse strain. Using the fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS II) and individual C57BL/6 anti-idiotypic sera produced against (T,G)-A--L-specific antibodies of C3H.SW origin, we have demonstrated the expression of the cross-reactive idiotypic markers on the monoclonal helper T-cells. Attempts were made to purify the active fraction of the T-cell factors secreted by the (T,G)-A--L continuous helper lines. Gel analysis of the twice affinity-purified eluate of a (T,G)-A--L column revealed the existence of iodinated bands with molecular weight of 17,000 and 15,000, in addition to a diffuse band of high molecular weight. The specific helper activity of the factors was associated with a 65-75% ammonium sulfate precipitate. Gel electrophoresis of the latter fraction, as well as of an eluate of a (T,G)-A--L-Sepharose column indicated that a high-molecular-weight (〈 67,000) and a low-molecular-weight (15,000-17,000) fraction contained the biological activity of the factor. Similar results were obtained following chromatography of the factor on Sephadex G-100 columns. The two fractions were shown to be synthesized by the T-cell lines, as indicated by internal labeling experiments using 35S-methionine. Thus, it is suggested that a fraction of an apparent molecular weight of 15,000-17,000 preserves both the antigen specificity and the helper activity of the factor produced by the (T,G)-A--L-specific T-cell lines.

    Notes: Activation of mutant β-galactosidase by antibodies can be explained by a “selection” mechanism in which the antibody binds and stabilizes those mutants in a native-like conformation and by an “induction” mechanism where binding of the antibody itself induces a conformational change activating β-galactosidase. The “selection” hypothesis was tested by passing β-galactosidase through a column packed with monoclonal antibody-derivatized Sepharose. The antibody retains the active, in preference to the inactive, proteins. The “induction” mechanism was tested by mixing antibody-Sepharose with mutant β-galactosidase and measuring enzyme activity before mixing and that remaining in the supernatant. The activity of the antibody-Sepharose pellet exceeded the sum of the original activity plus supernatant activity. As a result of these experiments, both mechanisms are found to be operative.

    Notes: Eledoisin and ceruletide, two nonmammalian hormonelike peptides, have been explored for possible pharmaceutical application. At present, only a few of the potentialities of the two drugs have been exploited. Eledoisin is used in ophthalmology as a lachrymal secretagogue; ceruletide is applied in the radiological diagnosis of gallbladder, biliary system, and digestive tract disorders, in the study of exocrine pancreatic function, and in the treatment of postoperative paralytic ileus and intestinal hypotony and atony. Possible analgesic and antipsychotic applications of ceruletide are under study. Developments of synthetic and analytical methods for both peptides are briefly reviewed. Technical devices or alternative routes of administration are envisaged in order to enlarge both the present market and the field of application.

    Notes: High-resolution 1H-nmr analyses are presented for partially modified retro-inverso derivatives of peptides with emphasis on enkephalins. Studies in DMSO-d6 reveal the unique as well as common characteristics of the non-amino acid residues incorporated into these modified peptides. The complete assignment of 1,1-diaminoalkyl and malonyl, as well as of amino acid, residues provides the basis for the exploration of the conformational features induced in peptides by such topochemical modifications.

    Notes: The preceding paper develops the theory for the interpretation of fluorescence photobleaching recovery (FPR) measurements of multiple binding of a ligand to a multivalent substrate molecule. Based on a reasonable assumption about the mechanism of the photobleaching process, this analysis shows that the observed behavior of a multivalent system should be practically identical to that of a univalent binding system. This is in contrast to the expected and observed behavior of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) measurments. Experimental FPR measurements of multivalent binding of ethidium bromide to DNA confirm these conclusions. The FCS and FPR measurements also reveal an apparently enhanced diffusion of ethidium at high DNA concentration. This enhancement might result from direct transfer of ethidium among DNA molecules.

    Notes: Tm values of 16 fully complementary RNA duplexes with repeating base sequence have been employed as the empirical basis for developing a reliable and practical method for computing apparent enthalpies (ΔHcalc) for their helix → coil transitions. The approach taken is the same as in the accompanying investigation of DNA duplexes, although some of the computational variables of the “best-fit” function are necessarily different due to the distinguishing structural properties of the RNA-type helix. An excellent linear correlation was thus obtained between experimental Tm and ΔHcalc values. An equally good fit was obtained between Tm and ΔHcalc for five unrelated (to the 16 RNAs) decaribonucleotide duplexes. The differences in computational variables between the best-fit methods for RNA and DNA duplexes are shown to be a reflection of differences in cation binding and the effective local dielectric. The greater Tm dependence on G·C content of RNA helices than of DNA helices is shown to be due to a greater latitude of stacking stabilities of complementary dinucleotide fragments containing A·T than A·U base pairs.

    Notes: A sharp feature is observed at about 600 MHz in the inelastic scattered light spectrum of fibers of calf thymus DNA. It broadens so as to be no longer distinctly resolved when the ordering of a fiber is disrupted by convection caused by laser heating. To within experimental uncertainties the frequency of this feature is wavevector independent. A possible origin of the feature lies in a defect resonance such as that associated with the chain terminus.

    Notes: The ir-spectra in the N—H stretching region of Piv-Pro-NHMe and Boc-Pro-NHMe have been studied in carbon tetrachloride and chloroform solutions over a wide range of concentrations. Based on the concentration dependence of the N—H stretching bands, it has been shown that the characteristic N—H stretching band due to the C7 intramolecular hydrogen bond is around 3335 cm-1. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding also occurs to a small extent in these peptides, giving rise to a slight concentration dependence of the N—H stretching bands. The band around 3335 cm-1 need not necessarily be due to C7 hydrogen bonds alone as proposed by Tsuboi et al. or to intermolecular hydrogen bonding alone as proposed by Maxfield et al.; this conclusion is supported by studies on Boc-Leu-NHMe, which undergoes only intermolecular hydrogen bonding. We have shown that Z-Aib-Aib-OMe and Z-Aib-Ala-OMe form C7 intramolecular hydrogen bonds in addition to C5 intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The present studies also show that all the peptides studied exist in more than one conformation in solution.

    Notes: Hydrogen exchange-rate probability density functions for lysozyme have been derived by numerical Laplace inversion with the computer program CONTIN. The resulting solution set includes a smooth bimodal solution in agreement with previous analytical results together with a smooth three-peak solution. Numerical analysis of lysozyme hydrogen-exchange data in glycerol/water cosolvent mixtures confirms the previous assignment of the slow-exchange peak to an exchange mechanism involving reversible unfolding. Physicochemical constrations that can reduce the size of the solution set are described. The results are compared with those obtained from previous analytical methods and the limitations of the discrete class and analytical appraches are discussed.

    Notes: We report the temperature dependence of the H2 and H8 purine ring proton resonances of oligoriboadenylates up to chain length 11, with or without a single guanosine residue at the 5′-end, second position, or 3′-end. The results suggest the following generalizations: (1) Stacking of the bases in a right-handed single-stranded helix is more extensive in the interior of the chain than at the chain ends. (2) The tendency of the terminal base to unstack is greater at the 5′-end than at the 3′-terminus. (3) G stacks more weakly than A, as evidenced by weak stacking of 3′-terminal G. Anomalies were also observed in the unstacking profile of G at the second position in the chain, indicating a conformational anomaly such as looping out of G, thereby allowing adjacent A's to stack together, or adoption by G of some other alternative structure. (4) The results imply that the environment at a given base is influenced by effects of longer range than nearest- or next-nearest-neighbor. Increasing ion condensation as chain length increases may be responsible for the slow approach of oligomer behavior to the properties of the high polymer.

    Notes: A comparison of the condensation of T4 phage DNA by spermidine and Co(NH3)63+ at pH values between 5.1 and 10.2 has been made using quasielastic light scattering to determine translational diffusion coefficients and Stokes radii. Co(NH3)63+ is more effective than spermidine in causing condensation at all pH, indicating that the differences observed in previous work were not due to pH effects, as might have been inferred from recent theories of intermolecular forces. The DNA particles collapsed with Co(NH3)63+ are smaller than those obtained with spermidine. The hydrodynamic radius of spermide-collapsed structures decreases slightly with increasing pH, while the size of the Co(NH3)63+collapsed structures is almost independent of pH. These results confirm that there are specific ion effects in DNA condensation by oligocations, in addition to the dominant general polyelectrolyte effects.

    Notes: Cyclic tetradepsipeptides, AM-toxin I and II, are the host-specific phytotoxins of Alternaria mali. In order to elucidate conformation-toxicity relationships, we analyzed the 270-MHz proton nmr spectra of AM-toxins and hydrogenated analogs, (D-Ala2)AM-toxin I (toxic) and (L-Ala2)AM-toxin I (not toxic), in (C2H3)2SO. These cyclic tetradepsipeptides do not contain N-substituted amino acid residues, and all the peptide and ester groups have been found to be transoid. Two conformers with very unequal populations have been found for AM-toxin I and II; the Cβ=Cα—C=O conformations of the Dha2 residues are nonplanar S-trans in the major conformer and nonplanar S-cis in the minor conformer. Only one ring conformation has been found for each of (L-Ala2) and (D-Ala2)AM-toxin I. (L-Ala2)AM-toxin I takes a C4-type ring conformation; all the C=O groups and Cα-H bonds are oriented to the same side of the ring. (D-Ala2)AM-toxin I takes a new ring conformation; the side chain and C=O group of the L-Amp1 residue are oriented to the same side of the ring. This new conformation is also found for the major conformers of AM-toxin I and II and thus appears to be required for the toxicity. The ring conformations of Tyr(OCH3)1-bearing analog tetradepsipeptides have been found to be much the same as those of Amp1-bearing depsipeptides. Furthermore, on the basis of the two distinct conformations of (D-Ala2) and (L-Ala2)AM-toxin I, an empirical rule is proposed for the stable ring conformations of cyclic tetra-D,L-peptides, not containing N-substituted amino acid residues.

    Notes: The kinetics of helix formation were investigated using the temperature-jump technique for the following two molecules: dC-G-T-G-A-A-T-T-C-G-C-G, which forms a double helix containing a G·T base pair(the G·T 12-mer), and dC-G-C-A-G-A-A-T-T-C-G-C-G, which forms a double helix containing an extra adenine (the 13-mer). When data were analyzed in an all-or-none model, the activation energy for the helix association process was 22 ± 4 kcal/mol for the G·T 12-mer and 16 ± 7 kcal/mol for the 13-mer. The activation energy for the helix-dissociation process was 68 ± 2 kcal/mol for the G·T 12-mer and 74 ± 3 kcal/mol for the 13-mer. Rate constants for recombination were near 105s-1M-1 in the temperature range from 32 to 47°C; for the dissociation process, the rate constants varied from 1s-1 near 32°C to 130s-1 near 47°C. Possible effects of hairpin loops and fraying ends on the above data are discussed.

    Notes: Raman and ir spectra of the glycyl-L-proline (GP) dipeptide were recorded. A normal-coordinate treatment was performed on the basis of the experimental spectra, using a modified Urey-Bradley force field (MUBFF). Cyclic redundancies were eliminated, and those due to the ring methylene groups, particularly distorted in regard to the tetrahedral conformation, were treated. An assignment of the experimental frequencies is proposed on the basis of the normal treatment.

    Notes: Primary and tertiary amine-initiated polymerizations of L-alanine-N-carboxyanhydride (L-Ala-NCA) were conducted at 20 or 100°C in a variety of solvents. The 75.5-MHz 13C-nmr CP/MAS spectra of the resulting poly(L-alanines) revealed that all samples contain both α-helix and pleated-sheet structures. Depending on the reaction conditions the α-helix content varied between ca. 1 and 99%. Reprecipitation from aprotic nonsolvents does not change the α-helix/β-sheet ratio, indicating that this ratio is thermodynamically controlled. Since relatively large amounts of oligopeptides of degree of polymerization (DP) 4-6 can be extracted by means of acetic acid, it is concluded that (a) most poly(L-alanines) possess a bimodal molecular weight distribution, (b) the oligopeptide fraction with DP ≤ 11 is responsible for the β-sheet fraction of all samples, and (c) the two-stage crystal growth proposed by Komoto and Kawai is not correct. Solubilizing initiators such as poly(ethylene oxide) NH2 prevent the precipitation of oligoalanine and, thus, the formation of a β-sheet structure. 13C-nmr CP/MAS measurements also show that tri- and tetra-L-alanines form insoluble β-sheet structures.

A C2-symmetric conformer containing two cis peptide bonds was found in all of these cyclic octapeptides. The numbers of available conformations due to the cis-trans isomerization of Pro peptide bonds depended on the nature of the solvent and X residue: they decreased in the following order: cyclo[Lys(Z)-Pro]4 〉 cyclo(Leu-Pro)4 〉 cyclo(Phe-Pro)4 in CDCl3. 13C spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) of these cyclic octapeptides were measured, and the contribution of segmental mobility to T1 was found to vary with the nature of the X residue.

    Notes: Densities of solutions of several α-amino acids and peptides in 3 and 6m aqueous urea solvents have been determined at 298.15 K. These data have been used to evaluate the infinite-dilution apparent molar volumes of the solutes and the volume changes due to transfer (Vtr0) of the α-amino acids and peptides at infinite dilution from water to aqueous urea solutions. The sign and magnitude of the Vtr0 values have been rationalized in the framework of Friedman's cosphere-overlap model. The Vtr0 values for the glycyl group (—CH2CONH—) and alkyl side chains have been estimated.

    Notes: Conformational-energy calculations of the zwitterionic forms of Trp, Gly-Trp, Pro-Trp, Phe-Trp, Trp-Gly, Trp-Phe, Trp-Trp, and Trp-Gly-Gly were done using an empirical energy program for peptides (ECEPP). The resulting low-energy conformations were analyzed for the presence of hydrogen bonds, the distances between carbonyl groups and the indole ring, the distances between the N-terminal amino group and the indole ring, the dihedral angle between the planes containing carbonyl groups and the indole ring, and for dipeptides with two aromatic side chains, the dihedral angle and distance between the planes of the aromatic rings. This information was correlated with literature data from x-ray crystallographic studies, fluorescence lifetime studies, and quantum-yield experiments; proposed models of intramolecular quenching are discussed in light of the peptide conformations.

    Notes: This paper analyzes the elastic equilibrium conformations of duplex DNA constrained by the constancy of its molecular linking number, Lk. The DNA is regarded as having the mechanical properties of a homogeneous, linearly elastic substance with symmetric cross section. Integral representations of the writhing number Wr and of Lk are developed, in terms of which the equilibria are given as solutions to an isoperimetric problem. It is shown that the Euler angles defining equilibrium conformations must obey equations identical to those governing unconstrained equilibria. A scaling law is developed stating that molecules supercoiled the same amount ΔLk will have geometrically similar elastic equilibria regardless of their length. Thus, comparisons among molecules of properties related to their large-scale tertiary structure should be referred to differences in ΔLk rather than to their superhelix densities. Specific conditions on the elastic equilibrium conformations are developed that are necessary for ring closure. The equilibrium superhelical conformations accessible to closed-ring molecules are shown to approximate toroidal helices. Questions relating to the stability and nonuniqueness of equilibria are treated briefly. A comparison is made between these toroidal conformations and interwound configurations, which are shown to be stable, although they are not equilibria in the present sense. It is suggested that entropic factors are responsible for favouring the toroidal conformation in solution.

    Notes: Denatured histones H1 and H5 can be readily refolded on salt addition. Their digestion by trypsin leads to limit peptides of about 80 residues having the same nmr and CD spectra as those of the intact parent histones. Scanning microcalorimetry shows that (1) the folded structures of H1 and H5 are located entirely in their limit peptides; (2) both have values of the specific denaturation enthalpy typical for small globular proteins; and that (3) both exhibit a classic “2-state” transition (ΔHdcal = ΔHdvan't Hoff). The heat-denaturation profiles of H5 measured using intrinsic and extrinsic Cotton effect and side-chain nmr peaks do not coincide at all. Only the intrinsic Cotton effects give a Tm and ΔHdvan't Hoff close to that from microcalorimetry. We conclude that these proteins exhibit large-scale side-chain motions that precede the macroscopic cooperative transition.

    Notes: Data are presented on the position of the equilibria of cyclo(Xxx-Pro-Yyy)2 backbones between forms with two cis Xxx-Pro peptide bonds and forms with only trans peptide bonds. These data are interpreted in terms of two factors: a solvent-independent steric interaction between the Xxx and Pro side chains, and the ability of solvent to influence the transannular electrostatic interaction between N—H and C=O groups of the Xxx units in the all-trans form.

    Notes: The type and distribution of the β-helixes occurring in chloroform solutions of Boc-(L-Val-D-Val)6-OMe and Boc-(L-Val-D-Val)8-OMe have been studied by using 1H-nmr techniques. Right- and left-handed ↑↓β4.4-helices and left-handed β5.6-helices occur with the dodecapeptide. β4.4-Helices of opposite handedness occur also with the hexadecapeptide, but ↑↓β5.6-helices could not be detected with this oligomer. At equilibrium, at 25°C, the double helix of the dodecapeptide is only moderately populated. These results indicate that increasing the chain length has a destabilizing effect on the ↑↓β5.6-helices of D,L-alternating oligovalines in chloroform solution.

    Notes: The conformational preferences of linear peptides containing α,α-disubstituted α-amino acids, derived from the crystal structures of 28 compounds, are reviewed. In particular, the sensitivity of peptide conformation to the geometry of these unusual amino acids is underlined. We also consider possible future directions of research, which, we hope, will result in a complete understanding of the structures adopted by peptaibol antibiotics.

    Notes: 13C-, 1H-nmr, CD, and x-ray crystallography revealed β-turns of type III for Boc-Gly-L-Ala-Aib-OMe, Boc-L-Ala-Aib-L-Ala-OMe; the 310-helix for Boc-Aib-L-Ala-Aib-L-Ala-Aib-OMe; and antiparallel arranged α-helices for Boc-L-Ala-Aib-Ala-Aib-Ala-Glu(OBzl)-Ala-Aib-Ala-Aib-Ala-OMe. An N-terminal rigid α-helical segment is found in the polypeptide antibiotics alamethicin, suzukacillin, and trichotoxin. The α-helix dipole is essential for their voltage-dependent pore formation in lipid bilayer membranes, which is explained by a flip-flop gating mechanism based on dipole-dipole interactions of parallel and antiparallel arranged α-helices within oligomeric structures.

    Notes: This paper discusses the hypothesis that insulin undergoes a conformational change either before or during its binding to the receptor. The evidence for this is not conclusive but allows us to reconcile the following observations: (1) no chemical modification or deletion of invariant surface residues has abolished the hormone's activity - only reduced its potency. (2) Reduction in potency follows many modifications to different side chains, both variant and invariant. (3) There are insulins with perfectly preserved structure (by the criteria of aggregation, spectroscopy, and x-ray analysis) that have markedly reduced potency. (4) Insulins with disturbed structure still exhibit real, sometimes substantial activity.

    Notes: We report here the refinement at 2.5-Å resolution of the x-ray crystal structure of bovine seminal ribonuclease, a dimeric covalent enzyme. The protein, which crystallizes with one molecule in the asymmetric unit, consists of two subunits of identical chemical sequences, related by an almost exact binary axis. The tertiary structure of the subunits is similar to that of the pancreatic enzyme, which shows similar catalytic properties. The refinement was carried out using the restrained least-squares procedure both in the reciprocal and real spaces. The assemblage of the subunits in the dimer is described and discussed.

    Notes: The clustering and internalization of epidermal growth factor (EGF)-receptor complexes on human tumor cells are temperature-sensitive processes that are completely inhibited at 4°C. The rotational diffusion of EGF-receptor is limited by the viscosity of the lipid matrix, while additional constraints limit the lateral diffusion of the receptor molecule. Although the lateral and rotational diffusion of the occupied receptors are temperature sensitive, they do not provide a rate-determining factor for the clustering and subsequent internalization of the EGF-receptor. Even at 4°C the occupied receptors move quickly enough to allow the formation of EGF-receptor clusters. The lack of internalization at 4°C must be due to the inhibition of interactions other than a temperature effect on receptor mobility. EGF-induced receptor clustering involves the formation of microclusters composed of 10-50 receptor molecules.

    Notes: Photochemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization was used to study the accessibility of surface tyrosine and tryptophan residues in proteinases, in their protein inhibitors and in the proteinase-inhibitor complexes. The accessibility probe is the triplet of 10-(carboxyethyl) flavin formed by optical excitation. On complex formation we observe accessibility loss in the surface tyrosines and tryptophans in the proximity of the proteinase-inhibitor contact site, and in the case of bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor, in more distant tyrosines as well.

    Notes: The synthetic random polymers poly(Glu,Lys,Phe), poly(Glu,Phe) and poly(Glu,Lys,Tyr), have been used to study some parameters associated with the genetic control of the immune response (Ir) of mice. Mice of haplotypes d and q respond well to GLPhe. Mice of haplotypes k and b were previously shown to be nonresponders, whereas the F1 (k × b) responded via a phenomenon involving “complementation” between 2 Ir genes, i.e., one gene product from IA, and another from IE form the requisite two-chain Ia “receptor” macromolecules (EbβEkα). When it was determined that mice of haplotypes q and k respond to GPhe, and the controlling gene maps to IA, (Aα Aβ), we tested the theory that mice having q and k alleles in IA might respond to GLPhe via recognition of GPhe determinants in the terpolymer. Employing the in vitro proliferative response to T-cells from mice immunized with GLPhe and stimulated with GPhe and GLT (cross-reaction), it was determined that different determinant selection patterns exist in the recognition of GLPhe. Mice having q and k alleles in IA can respond to GLPhe via one mechanism, and other mice having d and f alleles respond via other mechanisms. The F1 of the appropriate nonresponder strains forming the Ia molecule (EbβEkα) still exhibit the “complementation” phenomenon. Rabbit antibody against anti-GPhe (ID) from SWR mice (H-2q)(anti-ID) was prepared. This anti-ID strongly inhibited the binding of 125I-GPhe by anti-GPhe antisera produced only in mice of H-2q haplotype and had no effect on the binding of GPhe by anti-GPhe antisera produced in mice of other haplotypes. The anti-ID also inhibited the binding of 125I-GLPhe and 125I-GPhe by anti-GLPhe antisera produced only in mice of H-2q haplotype. These specificities were also confirmed by the inhibition of the plaque-forming cells. It was concluded that the antibodies produced in mice of H-2q haplotype against GPhe and GLPhe share common idiotypic determinants that are recognized by the anti-idiotypic antiserum.

    Notes: The N-terminal maleoyl-β-alanyl derivative of human gastrin-[2-17] has been synthesized as a model compound to investigate the usefulness of such peptide derivatives for their mild and selective conjugation, via reaction with thiol groups, to high-molecular-weight carrier molecules to produce antigens, as well as to radioiodinable or fluorogenic molecules to prepare tracers for immunoassays. In this context the examined enzyme substrate-gastrin conjugate was found to exhibit the full immunoreactivity of the parent peptide and to be well suited as tracer in a gastrin fluorescence-immunoassay.

    Notes: The geminal and vicinal 13C-31P coupling constants have been monitored, as a function of pH, for a series of uracil and cytosine 3′- and 5′-nucleotides with a ribose, arabinose, or 2′-deoxyribose sugar. Data were also obtained for two 3′,5′-diphosphates in the ribose and arabinose series. The geminal J(C5′-P5′) and J(C3′-P3′) couplings show only a small dependence on the ionization state of the phosphate, decreasing by 〈 0.5 Hz in the pH 5-7 range. For the ribose and arabinose 3′-nucleotides, the vicinal J(C4′-P3′) increase (up to 1.5 Hz) on secondary phosphate ionization in the pH 5-7 range, whereas their J(C2′-P3′) couplings decrease (up to 1.5 Hz) over the same pH range. In contrast for the 2′-deoxyribose molecules, both couplings decrease (∼0.5 Hz) on phosphate ionization. The titration curves provide information about the influence of the sugar on the conformation about the C3′—O3′ bond. Some conformational trends could be rationalized by consideration of the sugar-puckerdependent contact interactions between the 3′-phosphate and the substituents on the furanose ring.

    Notes: Studies on copolymerization kinetics of N-carboxyanhydride (NCA) of O-acetyl-L-tyrosine (T) with NCAs of L-valine (V) and glycine (G) were carried out in dioxane at 25°C with n-butylamine as initiator. The reactivity ratios for the VT system were found to be rV:rT:0.57:0.22; and for the GT system, rG:rT:0.26:0.42. A comparison of this data with that obtained when L-analine was used in place of L-valine or glycine showed that in the three systems, the reactivity ratio of the amino acid residue with a greater tendency to form ordered secondary structure was greater than that of its comonomer. Among the variable comonomers (glycine, L-alanine, L-valine) of O-acetyl-L-tyrosine, it is again L-alanine, whose tendency to form helical structure is very high, that has the greater reactivity ratio.

    Notes: We describe the synthesis and the conformational analysis by ir, CD, and proton-nmr spectroscopy of four model peptides of the type N-Ac-Tyr-X-His-NH2 with X = Val, Leu, Ala, Gly. These peptides represent the central sequence of the hormone angiotensin II and its position-5 analogs. We studied their conformational behavior in aqueous solution during pH titration and in organic solvents. For specific purposes of spectral analysis (ir band assignment, proton-nmr signal assignment, heteronuclear vicinal coupling constants), we synthesized three isotopically enriched homologs of the mother sequence, i.e., N-Ac-(15N-Tyr)-Val-His-NH2, N-Ac-(13C, 2H, Tyr)-Val-His-NH2, and N-Ac-Tyr-(13C, 2H, Val)-His-NH2. Results are summarized as follows: the tyrosine and the histidine side chains influence each other through space; this mutual influence is modulated by the nature of the side chain in position X and decreases in going from X=Val to X=Gly as a consequence of two simultaneous events, changes in the side-chain rotamer distribution and changes in the ϕ and ψ angles of residue X. The decrease in the bulkiness of the side-chain X (Val → Gly) leads to increased flexibility of the peptide backbone at this site, which is also reflected in the apparent ratio of C5, C7, and intermediate conformations present in equilibrium. The three spectroscopic techniques, in addition to the results of chymotryptic degradation experiments, show a high level of agreement, and all reflect the dynamic conformation of these peptides in a different manner.

    Notes: Fluidized-bed firing technology - State of the art and prospects. After categorizing fluidized-bed combustion according to process engineering criteria, the following features are then discussed on the basis of R & D results and of experience gained with demonstration units over the past four years: the range of feed coal qualities, combustion intensity, cleanness (SO2, NOx, CO, halogen, dust, disposal properties, and usability of residues), flexibility for partial load operation, and availability. The system-inherent possibilities could be exploited to such an extent that initial commercial application is within reach. Furthermore, significant improvements seem to be possible. The intial results obtained with binding of fluorine are to be regarded as positive, large-scale feasibility, however, still needs to be proven. Economic criteria are dealt with. The state of technology worldwide is discussed as well as modified experimental plants and facilities. Possibilities of further development are pointed out.

    Notes: Waste disposal at sea - state of the art and developments. The article starts by describing the legal situation governing the disposal of waste at sea and then considers the licensing procedure according to the „Oslo-London treaty law“. The Federal German Department of the Environment is also involved in this licensing procedure in that it is responsible for examining the possibilities of disposal on land. The quantities of material for disposal have been considerably reduced in recent years in all areas. The disposal of sewage sludge and of dilute acids (from the production of organic dyes and pigments) in the North Sea has now stopped completely. The amount of waste for disposal from TiO2 production has been greatly reduced and stepwise cessation is planned by the mid -1980's. The incineration of waste on the high seas has also been restricted and will also be stopped in the long term. The results of ongoing and completed research are reported.

    Notes: Automation in the chemical industry - scope and limitations. Tempestuous developments in semiconductor technology centering upon the microprocessor open up new possibilities of automation in chemical engineering. The traditional appearance of process control rooms is changing drastically. A few video display units with uniform keyboards suffice to monitor and control an extensive chemical plant. In spite of all technical perfection, automation has its limitations wherever unavoidable irregularities require human intervention. This in turn requires that one is in command of both the process and the function of the automatic mechanism.

    Notes: Developments in the technology of fuel production from municipal waste. Various methods have been developed in recent years for the production of fuel from municipal waste in the USA and in Europe, and some of them have been tested on a large scale. They utilize mainly machines employed in mechanical work-up and proven process steps developed specifically for the recovery of materials from municipal waste. Starting from the demands placed on the fuels the present status in Europe and the Federal Republic of Germany is illustrated with the aid of selected examples. The paper reports experimental results, operating experience, measures adopted to optimize the process engineering and to improve the fuel quality. It is not yet possible on the basis of the results obtained so far to estimate whether the production of fuels from waste will become accepted practice in Germany. It will be decisive whether the quality of the fuel can be optimized such that the limiting pollutant levels can be met without any need for flue gas scrubbing and whether longterm economic marketing of the fuel products is feasible.

    Notes: Development trends in electrochemical process engineering. Important electrochemical production processes have recently been crucially modified or newly developed and this opened new horizons for the future of industrial electrochemistry. The thrust of this development is discussed in three selected areas: alkali chloride electrolysis, water electrolysis, and organic electrosynthesis. Important past steps are the invention of the dimensionally stable anodes, the development of the cation exchange membrane and membrane electrolysis, the successful testing of zero gap cells, SPE electrolysis and the economic use of two phase electrolytes. These successes have arisen mainly from an improved knowledge and understanding of the fundamental principles of electrochemical engineering.

    Notes: Membranes in medical process engineering. Synthetic membranes not only represent the essential components of an artificial kidney or an artificial lung but are also used as wound dressing and in systems for controlled release of drugs in certain long-term therapeutic measures or as part of an artificial pancreas. By far the greatest present economic significance of membranes is their use in the so-called artificial kidney. Considerable cost saving would result if patients could undertake „home dialysis“. This requires the development of new, simpler artificial kidneys and thus higher-performance membranes. The latest trend in „artificial kidneys“, the so-called method of „hemodiafiltration“ warants special mention. The separation process is no longer effected only by diffusion but also by convection, i.e. the driving force is the pressure difference between the two sides of the membrane. This paper addresses problems encountered in the development and use of membranes in medicine, recent applications such as the controlled release of active components, or plasma separation, and demonstrates the potential of membranes in medicine.

    Notes: Criteria for the assessment of ignition hazards due to electrostatically charged liquids. The state of the art in the assessment of ignition hazards due to static electrification of liquids is reviewed. Starting from the physical problems of the electrification of streaming or sprayed liquids, the charge accumulation and resulting electrical fields and potentials as well as the question of incendivity of the different types of gas discharges occurring as a consequence of the highly charged liquid, the criteria are presented which allow the assessment of the ignition hazard in practically relevant cases such as tank filling with chargeable liquids, charging resulting from stirring processes and charging of liquid sprays during tank cleaning with liquid jets.

    Notes: Modern methods of measurement and control engineering and their significance for the automation of chemical engineering processes. This article demonstrates that modern system-theoretical methods open up new approaches in the solution of difficult measurement and control problems. These methods are frequently based on the assumption that a certain a priori knowledge of the process behaviour is available, which can be formulated as a mathematical process model. Model-supported measuring procedures are of particular significance and are discussed at length. These methods greatly enhance the information value of measured values, with regard to both extent and reliability. It is shown how the problem of early recognition of dangerous reaction states in reactors in the case of exothermic reaction can be overcome. In order to minimize the computational effort, methods of model reduction are considered.

    Notes: Use of information technologies in chemical engineering (state of the art and trends). Information saves energy, time and money. Data processing has developed very rapidly within recent years. The number of data bases and their volumes have multiplied. An end-user is initially confused when choosing a new system suitable for his purpose. At the chemical engineer's disposal are computing performance, data bases about special literature and physical properties, CAD for designing, process computers improve the running of production plants, simulations by computer and programmes, respectively, help to solve development problems without incurring any risk, thus lowering costs, and the new personal computers are programmable directly at the job. Engineers are still not as familiar with word processing and office communication as commercial people are. Steadily increasing speed of data transmission and higher data density reduce costs, e. g. by public data nets like EURONET or DATEX or private so-called „inhouse nets“. The commercial use of „Bildschirmtext“ and „Videotext“ has been started. Information about the new facilities enables the chemical engineer to choose the most effective systems for his work.

    Notes: Chemical reaction engineering of anaerobic fermentation. Anaerobic fermentation has already been used for more than 50 years for the disposal of excess activated sludge. In recent years, increasing costs and considerable problems encountered in connection with the disposal of activated sludge have encouraged the development of anaerobic processes for the treatment of industrial waste water. Various aspects which have to be taken into account when planning a digester plant are discussed. Reduction in residence time with concomitant increase of biogas production rate is possible by retention of biomass. In this way catabolic performances are obtained comparable to those of aerobic high capacity activated sludge plants. Anaerobic waste treatment appears so far to be a real purification method because the predominant part of the organic pollution (more than 95%) is eliminated under energy saving conditions. The by-product biogas contributes to the energy self-sufficiency of the process.

    Notes: Advances in the design of pneumatic conveyors. Pneumatic conveyors can be constructed for a variety of flow conditions, such as, e. g. dilute phase conveying, strand conveying or plug-flow conveying. The choice of the most favourable flow condition is naturally determined by the particular problem at hand, and, in particular by the physical data of the solid to be conveyed. In practice, when designing such conveyors, not only the processes taking place in the pipeline have to be taken into account but also those taking place during the feeding and separating of the solid, since these jointly influence the flow conditions of the whole system. The choice of fan is of considerable importance. The accuracy of the precalculation of pressure drops and the criteria for the choice of the most favourable gas velocity in the conveyor line are still unsatisfactory, in spite of the many previously confirmed findings. More recent investigations on the prediction of various flow conditions and on plug-flow conveying enable a better choice of the most favourable method of conveying. Significant technical developments have been made, especially as regards calculated plug-flow conveying.
