    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An Paraffinschnitten durch perfusionsfixierte Gehirne von erwachsenen Katzen werden in der Glia marginalis des Hirnstamms unterschiedlich gebaute Bezirke beschrieben. Es wird gezeigt, daß über dem Nucleus paragigantocellularis und über dem Ncl. “z” swischen den Fasern der Glia marginalis Nervenzellen liegen. Über dem erstgenannten Kern stellen diese Zellen möglicherweise das morphologische Substrat der chemosensiblen Felder dar, die durch die physiologischen Untersuchungen von Loeschcke, Mitchell u.a. bekannt geworden sind.
    Notes: Summary In the marginal glia covering the brain stem of the cat, regional differences are described in paraffin sections of brains which had been fixed by perfusion of Bouin's fluid. It is shown that between the glia fibres covering the nucleus paragigantocellularis and the nucleus “z” there are nerve cells. It is suggested that in the region of the nucleus paragiganto-cellularis these cells are the morphological substrate of a chemosensible zone described in physiological experiments by Loeschcke, Mitchell and others.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An Paraffinschnitten durch das Corpus callosum perfusionsfixierter Gehirne von 19 Katzen im Alter von einem Tag bis zu 2 1/2 Jahren wurde das Capillarvolumen bestimmt. Es beträgt bei der neugeborenen Katze 0,81 Vol.-%. In der 2. Lebenswoche beginnt eine Zunahme, die in der 5. Woche ein Maximum von 2,92 Vol.-% erreicht. Im Verlauf der 6. Woche setzt eine zunächst rasche, von der 7. Woche an aber nur noch langsam verlaufende Abnahme ein, bis bei einem Lebensalter von etwa 1 Jahr ein für das erwachsene Tier charakteristischer Wert um 1,5 Vol.-% erreicht wird. Die Abnahme des Capillarvolumens hängt mit der Markscheidenbildung und der dadurch bedingten Zunahme des Fasermaterials zusammen.
    Notes: Summary Postnatal changes of capillary density have been determined in paraffin sections through the corpus callosum of 19 cats. At birth the capillary density amounts to 0.81 vol.-%. In the 2nd week of postnatal life it begins to increase and reaches a maximum of 2.92 vol.-% in the 5th week. From the 6th week onwards there is an initially steep and later on less pronounced decrease until at an age of about 1 year a value of about 1.5 vol.-% is reached, which is maintained in adult life. — The decrease in the percentage of capillary volume seen after the 5th week is caused by the rapid increase in fibrous material due to myelination.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Zum Studium der Reaktion des jugendlichen und erwachsenen Gehirnes auf einen chronischen Reiz wurden bei Katzen verschiedenen Lebensalters intracerebrale Injektionen von Aluminiumhydroxyd vorgenommen. Die Tiere wurden nach Überlebenszeiten von 7 Tagen, 40 Tagen und 3 Monaten durch Perfusion mit Bouinscher Lösung getötet. Die histologische Untersuchung der Gehirne ergab eine Reihe von Unterschieden, je nachdem ob die Injektion vor oder nach der Markscheidenbildung erfolgt war. Besonders auffällig war der Befund, daß in der noch unmyelinisierten weißen Substanz jugendlicher Tiere kein Hirnödem und keine Gliose auftritt. Obgleich durch fluorescenzmikroskopische Untersuchungen gezeigt werden konnte, daß das Aluminium von der Injektionsstelle aus weit in das umgebende Hirngewebe eindringt und dort über lange Zeit festgehalten wird, werden bei den jungen Tieren die Markscheiden später bis in die unmittelbare Umgebung des Herdes normal angelegt. Bei erwachsenen Tieren kam es dagegen in der Nachbarschaft des Herdes stets zu einem starkem Ödem der weißen Substanz, zum Zerfall der Markscheiden und zu einer ausgebreiteten Gliose. Weitere Unterschiede in der Reaktionsweise des Gehirnes jugendlicher und erwachsener Tiere, die den Cortex und insbesondere die marginale Gliafaserschicht betreffen, werden im einzelnen beschrieben und diskutiert.
    Notes: Summary In order to compare the reaction to chronic irritation of young and adult brain intracerebral injections of alumina cream were made in cats of various ages. The animals were killed by perfusion with Bouin's fluid after a survival time of 7 days, 40 days, and 3 months. Histological investigation revealed gross differences in the reaction according to whether the intracerebral injections had been made before or after myelination. Particularly striking was the finding that in the non-myelinated white matter of young animals there was no edema and no subsequent gliosis. Although alumina, as evidenced by fluorescence microscopy after staining with Morin, spreads into the tissue surrounding the focus, subsequent myelination appeared to be normal even in regions close to the site of injection. In contrast, injection into the brains of adult animals was followed by edema, widespread demyelination and gliosis of the white matter near the site of injection. Further differences between young and adult animals were found in the reaction of the grey matter and particularly of the marginal glia.

    Notes: Summary Fractionation of the cat cerebellum has revealed that the parallel fibers of the cerebellar cortex break into two types of fragments which can be recognized in thin sections and in suspensions of negatively stained material. Fragmented material correlates well with electron micrographs of parallel fibers in situ. Parallel fiber axons and their bulbous presynaptic expansions sediment mainly into two subfractions. One unique layer consists of the intersynaptic tubular pieces of parallel fiber axons. Another layer is enriched in the synaptic portions which make contact with Purkinje spines. The possible contaminants of these fractions are discussed. These fractions may permit analysis of the chemical organization of conducting vis à vis synaptic membranes from a known anatomical source. This material was presented as a preliminary report at the Sixth Annual Meeting of the American Society for Cell Biology, November 1966, and is contained in J. Cell. Biol. 31, 52A, 1966.

    Notes: Summary The role of two spinal sensory pathways, the dorsal column (DC) pathway and the spino-cervico-thalamic tract (SCTT), involved in tactile discrimination was studied. Pour lesion groups of cats (DC lesion, SCTT lesion, combined DC and SCTT lesion, and sham-operated) were tested to discriminate various degrees of roughness. Animals with either the SCTT or the combined lesions performed at around 50–60% level under all the conditions tested. On the other hand, those with the DC lesion and sham-operations generally attained 80–100% level of performance. A difference between the DC group and sham-operated group was found in their rate of learning and ability for finer discrimination. These results are interpreted as an indication that a duplicity in transmission of tactile sensation exists, the DC pathway being more specific than the SCTT.

    Notes: Summary The EEG frequency content in cats, anaesthetized by Nembutal and artificially ventilated, was altered by means of injections of either additional Nembutal or of Metrazol. The EEG in cerveau isolé preparations was also changed in the same way. The regional cortical blood flow was determined by means of the 85Krypton technique. A high correlation was found between the frequency content of the EEG, measured by means of manual frequency analysis, and the regional cortical blood flow. The cortical blood flow increased when the mean frequency increased, and vice versa. A similar correlation was found when the EEG mean frequency was changed by means of sensory stimulation.

    Notes: Summary 1. The relationship between cortical blood flow and the frequency content of the EEG was studied in a circumscribed area of the exposed cerebral cortex in cats under nitrous oxide-oxygen anaesthesia. Autoregulation of the cortical blood flow was also tested during step-changes of the arterial blood pressure. Observations were made before and after an episode of severe hypoxia. 2. An episode of systemic hypoxia disrupted the normal high correlation between cortical blood flow and EEG frequency content. In the post-hypoxic period cortical flows of up to about three times normal values were recorded together with brain swelling and a slow wave EEG. The hyperemia and swelling subsided during 1–2 h after the hypoxic episode, and were accompanied by partial or complete recovery of the EEG. In the post-hypoxic period a defective autoregulation of the cortical blood flow to changes in the systemic blood pressure was demonstrated. 3. The cerebral post-hypoxic state with hyperaemia, brain swelling, EEG depression, and loss of autoregulation of blood flow, is probably caused by an accumulation of anaerobic metabolites which lead to cerebral tissue acidosis.

    Notes: Summary The corticothalamic projections from the gyrus proreus and the medial wall of the rostral hemisphere have been studied in the cat with the silver method of Nauta. The gyrus proreus projects upon the following nuclei (for abbreviations, see list on page 133), ipsilateral R, VA, VM, VL, MD, Pc, CL, CM, Pf, VPM, VPMpc. VPI and to the contralateral principal nucleus of the trigeminal nerve. The medial wall of the rostral hemisphere projects bilaterally upon R, VA, VM, VL, MD, Pc, CL, CM, Pf, VPM, VPMpc, VPI, VPL, the dorsal column nuclei and the principal nucleus of the trigeminal nerve. The ipsilateral thalamic projection is more abundant than the contralateral. The latter appears to increase in amount as the lesion is placed successively more ventrally on the medial wall of the rostral hemisphere. Some degenerating fibers cross in the corpus callosum and descend in the contralateral internal capsule but the majority cross in the dorsal part of the anterior commissure and reach the medial aspect of the anterior limb of the contralateral internal capsule. A somatotopical organization of the medial wall of the rostral hemisphere has been demonstrated. The rostrocaudal part projects upon the ipsilateral VPL lateralis (VPLl) and nucleus cuneatus and the contralateral nucleus gracilis and VPL medialis (VPLm). The caudal part of this cortical area sends fibers bilaterally to VPM, VPMpc, and the principal nucleus of the trigeminal nerve. The intermediate part, which also includes agranular cortex on the medial wall, projects upon ispsilateral VPLm and nucleus gracilis and upon contralateral VPLl and nucleus cuneatus. — The fibers to the ventro-basal complex, dorsal column nuclei and the principal nucleus of the trigeminal nerve are rather thick. The corticofugal fibers to the other thalamic nuclei are quite thin. — The findings are discussed in light of relevant anatomical and physiological observations in the literature and special emphasis has been laid on reported observations on the “supplementary motor” area.

    Notes: Summary The corticothalamic projection from the anterior ectosylvian gyrus in the cat has been studied with the silver impregnation method of Nauta. The second somatosensory cortical area (SII) projects upon the ipsilateral nucleus ventralis posterolateralis (VPL), nucleus ventralis posteromedialis (VPM), the posterior thalamic region (PO) and to a slight extent upon the reticular nucleus of the thalamus (R), the centrum medianum (CM), the parvocellular part of VPM (VPMpc) and the nucleus ventralis posterior inferior (VPI). A somatotopical arrangement in the projection upon the ventro-basal (VB) complex has been demonstrated and a topical arrangement in the corticothalamic fibers from SII to PO is also evident. The transitional area between SII and the second auditory cortex sends fibers mainly to the entire magnocellular part of the medial geniculate body (MGmc) and to a lesser degree to the principal division of this nucleus (MGp). The corticofugal fibers from SII follow various and rather complicated circuitous routes before they end in the different thalamic nuclei. The experimental findings are discussed in the light of recent anatomical and physiological observations. It is shown that zones B and C of SII which have been shown by Carreras and Andersson (1963) to possess a large number of place and modality specific neurons project upon the VB-complex. On the other hand, zone A which contains a majority of place and modality unspecific neurons sends its fibers exclusively to PO. Finally the problem of thalamocortical projections to SII is briefly discussed.

    Notes: Summary Small lesions (in some cases bilateral) were made in the cerebral primary sensorimotor region in altogether 21 adult cats and the ensuing degeneration in the pontine nuclei was studied with the silver impregnation methods of Nauta and Glees. Using thermocoagulation it was possible to obtain lesions restricted entirely to particular cortical regions (for example the “hindlimb region” in the posterior sigmoid gyrus). The main results are as follows: 1. All parts of the primary sensorimotor region send fibres to the pontine nuclei. The projections from the posterior part of the posterior sigmoid gyrus and the posterior part of the coronal gyrus are relatively scanty. 2. The cortical “motor” area (the anterior sigmoid gyrus and the anterior part of the coronal gyrus) and the “sensory” area (the posterior sigmoid gyrus and the posterior part of the coronal gyrus) do not project to identical pontine regions, although both projections are organized in principally the same way. 3. The “motor” and “sensory” areas both project in a somatotopical manner onto two longitudinally oriented sharply delimited columns. In both projections one column is located medial and one lateral to the longitudinal fibre bundles of the corticospinal and corticobulbar tracts. Within the medial columns the “hindlimb” is represented ventrally with “face” most dorsally, within the lateral columns the “hindlimb” is located most caudally, with “forelimb” and “face” successively more rostrally. 4. The present results are in agreement with physiological observations on the cerebrocerebellar relations, but show that the pontine projection from the primary sensorimotor cortex is organized in a more complex manner than hitherto assumed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung In 13 Katzen wurde die Aktivität von 128 Einzelfasern des N. opticus bei Temperaturen zwischen 27 und 39° C abgeleitet und direkt einer Intervallanalyse zugeführt. Die Durchschnittsfrequenz sank mit abnehmender Temperatur von 56/sec bei 39–37° C auf 21/sec unter 29° C. Bei Temperaturen über 35° C wurden nur unimodale oder zweigipfelige Verteilungen mit gehäuften Mehrfachentladungen gefunden. Unter 35° C traten multimodale Intervallhistogramme und Übergangstypen auf, bei denen einer Verteilung mehrere Gipfel aufgesetzt erschienen. Unter 29° C wurden nur mehrgipfelige Verteilungen beobachtet. In der phasischen Reaktion der Neurone wurden mit der Temperaturabnahme Latenzen länger und Hemmungen stärker. Unter 30° C konnte der Reaktionstyp des Neurons oft nicht mehr erkannt werden. Das vermehrte Auftreten multimodaler Verteilungen bei niedrigen Temperaturen ließe sich durch Verminderung von Interaktionen in der Retina erklären. Die Anregung zu dieser Untersuchung wurde von Herrn Professor Dr. Hans Bornschein gegeben.
    Notes: Summary The activity of 128 single fibers of the optic nerve was recorded in 13 cats at temperatures between 27 and 39° C. Nonsequential interval histograms were computed on line. Decreasing temperature diminished the mean frequency of the fiber activity from 56/sec at 37–39° C to 21/sec below 29° C. Above 35° C the histograms were unimodal or bimodal, the first peak caused by repetitive discharges. Below 35° C multimodal histograms appeared; in some distributions several peaks were superimposed. At temperatures below 29° C only multimodal distributions were obtained. The phasic response of the neurons to light showed an increase of latency and of inhibition according to the decrease of temperature. Often the type of the response of the neuron could not be recognized below 30° C. During hypothermia interactions in the retina may be reduced and this may explain why multimodal distributions occur more frequently.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 1. Funktionelle Eigenschaften der excitatorischen Verbindungen von Cortex, Thalamus und Peripherie zu 438 Neuronen der bulbären Trigeminuskerne wurden untersucht. Es konnten Beziehungen zwischen den Latenzzeiten der Antworten auf ipsilaterale, periphere Einzelreize, contralaterale thalamische Einzel- und Serienreize (N. ventralis posteromedialis) und contralaterale corticale Einzel- und Serienreize (somatosensorisches Projektionsgebiet S I, S II) nachgewiesen werden. 2. Für die Gesamtheit der Neurone wurde mit zunehmender Latenzzeit der Entladung auf periphere Reize eine Zunahme der prozentualen Ansprechbarkeit und der Latenzzeit der Antwort auf zentrale Reize beobachtet. 3. Die Neurone, deren periphere, thalamische und corticale Antworten Reizfrequenzen von 50 Hz und mehr folgten, hatten im Mittel kürzere periphere Latenzzeiten als Neurone, die Reizfrequenzen von 50 Hz nicht folgten. 4. Bulbäre Neurone, die mit thalamischen Reizen antidrom erregt wurden (lemniscale Neurone), unterschieden sich im Mittel von den übrigen Neuronen durch kürzere Latenzzeiten für periphere und zentrale Reize. 5. Es wurden lemniscale Neurone beobachtet, die mit corticalen Reizen monosynaptisch erregt werden konnten. 6. Neurone mit kleinen peripheren rezeptiven Feldern hatten im Mittel kürzere Latenzzeiten auf periphere Reize als Neurone mit großen rezeptiven Feldern. 7. Die periphere Reizantwort von Neuronen konnte durch vorausgehende thalamische und corticale Reize gehemmt werden. Im Mittel wurde die Hemmung bei Neuronen mit Latenzzeiten auf periphere Reize häufiger beobachtet. 8. Mögliche Bahnen, die an der Übertragung thalamo-bulbärer Effekte beteiligt sind, wurden diskutiert und schematisch dargestellt. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit statistischen Methoden geprüft.
    Notes: Summary 1. Functional properties of excitatory connections from cortex, thalamus and periphery to a total of 438 trigeminal bulbar neurons of the cat have been investigated extracellularly. For the sample considered, correlations between latency of response to ipsilateral electrical single stimuli, contralateral electrical thalamic single and serial stimuli (N. ventralis posteromedialis) and also contralateral electrical cortical single and serial stimuli (somatosensory areas S I, S II) were established. 2. With increasing peripheral latency of response, the percentage of neurons responding to central stimulation increased as well. 3. Neurons following thalamic, cortical or peripheral stimulation frequencies of 50 cps or more showed in the average shorter latencies of response compared with neurons that could not be driven with 50 cps stimulation. 4. Bulbar neurons antidromically invaded by stimulation of the thalamus showed shorter latencies to peripheral, thalamic and cortical stimuli compared with other neurons. 5. Lemniscal neurons that could be activated monosynaptically by cortical stimulation have been observed. 6. Neurons with a small peripheral receptive field had in the average a shorter latency to peripheral stimuli than neurons with a large receptive field. 7. Responses to peripheral stimuli could be inhibited by preceding thalamic and cortical stimuli. 8. Possible pathways that are involved in transmission of thalamo-bulbar effects have been discussed and schematically represented. 9. All results have been examined by means of statistical methods.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary 1. Hippocampal and lateral geniculate neurones in anaesthetized cats (Chloralose-Urethane) were examined with multibarrelled microelectrodes, testing their responsiveness to microelectrophoretic application of acetylcholine and photic stimulation. 2. In the ventral hippocampus and in the lateral geniculate body 60% of all neurones responded to acetylcholine. 3. Hippocampal neurones were activated with relatively short delay, often less than 1 sec. By contrast, lateral geniculate neurones responded with a latency period of 2–12 sec. The recovery time after acetylcholine-microelectrophoresis was found to be 10–20 sec in both regions. 4. The response of hippocampal and lateral geniculate neurones to photic stimulation was enhanced by local application of acetylcholine; even during phenobarbital depression the photic responses were restored by acetylcholinemicroelectrophoresis.

Neurone im Gebiet des Hippocampus und des Corpus geniculatum laterale der mit Chloralose-Urethan narkotisierten Katze wurden mit mehrkanüligen Mikroelektroden auf ihre Ansprechbarkeit auf mikroelektrophoretisch appliziertes Acetylcholin und auf optische Reizung untersucht. 2. Im ventralen Hippocampus und im Corpus geniculatum laterale wurden 60% aller untersuchten Neurone durch Acetylcholin aktiviert. 3. Die Neurone des Hippocampus wurden nach relative kurzer Latenz, oft weniger als 1 sec, aktiviert. Neurone des Corpus geniculatum laterale dagegen zeigten eine Latenz von 2–12 sec. Die Zeit nach der Mikroelektrophorese bis zur Wiedererreichung der normalen Aktivität betrug 10–20 sec für beide Gebiete. 4. Die Acetylcholin-Mikroelektrophorese verstärkte die Reizantwort der Neurone des Hippocampus und des Corpus geniculatum laterale auf visuelle Reizung. Die nach Phenobarbital abgeschwächte Antwort auf visuelle Reizung wurde durch Acetylcholin-Mikroelektrophorese wieder verstärkt.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 1. An Katzen wurden EEG-Veränderungen durch Hypoglykämie hervorgerufen und mit den Aktivitätsveränderungen corticaler Neurone verglichen, wie sie sich bei intracellulären und „quasi-intracellulären“ Ableitungen darstellen. Es zeigte sich, daß pathologische EEG-Veränderungen erst bei niedrigen Blutzuckerwerten (zwischen 30 und 25 mg-%) auftreten und daß es erst bei Werten unter 10–15 mg-% zur elektrischen Stille kommt. 2. Während des flachen, desynchronisierten EEG des wachen Hirns vor Hypoglykämie lassen sich keine Beziehungen zwischen den kleinen EEG- und statistisch verteilten Zellpotentialen nachweisen. — Während der regelmäßigen 8–10/sec- Spindelgruppen, die bei tiefer Hypoglykämie häufig zu beobachten sind, findet sich eine enge Korrelation zwischen den einzelnen Oberflächen-negativen Spindelwellen und Zelldepolarisationen, die meist unterschwellig sind. 3. Bei den langsamen Wellen der δ-Frequenz finden sich ähnliche, aber weniger enge Korrelationen für die flachen, „monomorphen“ δ-Wellen. Andere Formen von langsamen Potentialkomplexen des Cortiocogramms, die im Tintenschreiber als „polymorphe“ δ-Wellen imponieren können, zeigen etwas andere, aber für den einzelnen Wellenkomplex jeweils konstante Beziehungen zur Zellaktivität. 4. Die steilen Wellen wurden unterteilt in primär positive und in primär negative bi- (oder auch tri-)phasische Potentiale. Die primäre Phase der primär-positiven steilen Potentiale ist im Durchschnitt kürzer (unter 20–40 msec) als die negative Phase der primär-negativen Phase (über 100 msec). Die meist überschwellige Zelldepolarisation, die in der Regel zu einer kurzen Gruppenentladung führt, fällt mit der primären Phase, also entweder der positiven oder der negativen zusammen. Die Phasenkoppelung, d. h. die „Synchronisation“ mit dem EEG-Potential, ist jedoch im Fall der primär-positiven Phase enger und die Dauer der Depolarisation kürzer als im Fall der primär-negativen steilen Potentiale. Diese Befunde werden als Hinweis auf eine stärkere Synchronisation der Aktivität der corticalen Nervenzellpopulation im Fall der primär-positiven steilen Potentiale gewertet. 5. Die verschieden engen Phasenkoppelungen und die je nach Steilheit der Wellen wechselnden Phasenbeziehungen zwischen Zellaktivierung und oberflächennegativen resp. -positiven Potentialen werden an Hand eines einfachen Modells der Elektrogenese von EEG-Potentialen erklärt, das den Synchronisationsgrad cortico-petaler und cortico-fugaler Faseraktivität sowie die Summation postsynaptischer Potentiale corticaler Neurone berücksichtigt.
    Notes: Summary 1. The EEG, recorded monopolarly from the pial surface, was investigated during insuline induced hypoglycemia in acute cats and compared with the activity of cortical cells recorded with intra or “quasi-intracellular” electrodes. 2. Pathological changes of the EEG were observed only when the blood glucose fell below 25–30 mg-%. Electrical silence was observed at blood glucose levels below 15–10 mg-%. 3. The essentially flat, “desynchronized” EEG of the awake animal before hypoglycemia did not show any relation between the small, irregular fast EEG- potentials and the statistically distributed cellular potentials. —During the regular 8–10/sec spindles (Fig. 3) a close correlation was found between the single surface- negative spindle waves and the mostly subthreshold compound cellular EPSP's. 4. Slow waves of δ-frequency showed similar but less close correlations, if the waves were of regular appearance comparable to “monomorphic” δ-waves (Fig.4A). Other forms of slow complex potentials (Fig.4B and C), which correspond to “polymorphic” δ-waves in an EEG-record (e.g. Fig.4C and Fig.2d) may show different relations between cellular and EEG-activity which were, however, consistent for each type of complex wave. 5. Sharp waves were divided into primary positive and primary negative bi- (or tri-)phasic potentials. The primary positive phase was always shorter (below 20–40 msec) than the primary negative phase (above 100 msec). The mostly suprathreshold cellular depolarization, which may lead to a short burst of discharge, coincided with the primary, i.e. either the primary positive or the primary negative phase (Fig. 7 shows records from the same cell and different EEG-phenomena). The phase coupling, i.e. the “synchronization” with the EEG-potential, is closer in the primary positive than the primary negative waves, and the duration of the cellular depolarization is also shorter in the former case (compare Fig.7B I–III with 7B IV). This can be interpreted as stronger synchronization of cellular activity during the short primary positive waves. 6. A causal relation between cortical neuronal activity and EEG-potentials is assumed. Differences in the closeness of phase coupling and the changing phase relation between cellular and EEG-activity according to the form and steepness of cortical EEG-potentials are explained by a simple model of electrogenesis of EEG-potentials, which takes in account the degree of synchronization of corticopetal and cortico-fugal fibre activity as well as the summation of postsynaptic potentials of cortical neurones.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Frage der Wacho- der Schlaf-Aktivierung der fokalen Epilepsien wird bei 20 epileptischen Katzen im chronischen Experiment untersucht (Kopeloff-Methode). Die Narben wurden im Nucleus amygdaloideus (Pars basolateralis), Hippocampus dorsalis, Formatio reticularis mesencephali, Isocortex gesetzt. Bei einer Untersuchungsdauer der einzelnen Tiere zwischen 3 und 60 Tagen, wurden insgesamt 442 Std in Polygraphie (EEG, EMG, Augenbewegungen) abgeleitet. Die Tiere zeigten innerhalb der ersten 7 Tage Krampfpotentiale im EEG und die meisten ab der 2. Woche Krampfanfälle. Bei Katzen mit subcorticalen Narben war keine Veränderung der Dauer, der Verteilung und der Organisation der einzelnen Schlafstadien nachweisbar. Die im Ruhe-EEG vorhandenen Paroxysmen wurden während des langsamen Schlafes nicht aktiviert und fokalisiert. Im paradoxen Schlaf waren die Krampfpotentiale völlig desaktiviert, es traten einzelne Spindeln auf. Die Tiere mit Narben im Isocortex zeigten im langsamen Schlaf seltene Paroxysmen. Während der häufigeren kurzen Phasen des paradoxen Schlafes war eine Fokalisierung der Spitzen im Bereich der Läsion nachweisbar, jedoch, keine Aktivierung. Bei allen Tieren war die ausgeprägteste Aktivierung der Krampfbereitschft stets in dem von uns als „Wach mit motorischer Inaktivität“ bezeichnete Phase zu bemerken. Daher wird angenommen, daß dieser Zustand bei der Katze mit dem Einschlafstadium des Menschen vergleichbar ist.
    Notes: Summary The activation of focal epileptic activities during wakefulness, slow and REM sleep was studied in chronic experiments in 20 epileptic cats (Kopeloff's method). The lesions were produced in the nucleus amygdaloideus (pars basolateralis), hippocampus dorsalis, formatio reticularis mesencephali and in the isocortex. Each animal was observed from between 3 to 60 days and a total of 442 hours of polygraphy (E.E.G., E.M.G, Eye movements) were recorded. Within the first 7 days all animals showed E.E.G paroxysms and most of them showed seizures from the beginning of the second week. In those cats with subcortical lesions there was no change detected in the duration, distribution and organisation of the different sleep phases. The paroxysmal E.E.G activity seen in the wakeful animal were not activated or focalised during slow-wave sleep; in REM sleep the paroxysms disappeared completely, only a few spindles were seen. Animals with lesions in the isocortex rarely showed paroxysms during the slow wave sleep. However, during REM sleep a clear focalisation was seen, although there was no additional activation in the area of the lesion. In all animals the most significant of the paroxysms was seen during a state which we should like to describe as; “Awake without any motor activity”. It is assumed that this state corresponds to the state of falling asleep in man.

    Notes: In aqueous solutions of the amylase-iodine complex the concentration of free iodine [If]v after reaching equilibrium (or closely approximating it) is determined by the following factors: temperature, pH, concentration of iodide ions and amylose, and DP of amylose. In the present paper the role of temperature, amylose concentration, and DP has been investigated. At half-saturation of amylose by iodine, the reciprocal value of free iodine defines the equilibrium constant: 1/[If]v = K. The relation between [If]v, in normality and temperature is the following: 5 + log [If]v = -(2.132/T) + 8.52, for DPn = 1290, 0.4 mg. amylose in 100 ml. 0.1N HCl. The value of the energy of activation Ea between 2 and 52°C. is 9.72 kcal./mole. The influence of amylose concentration [Am] on photometrically determined [If]v, at 20°C, in the range of 0.1-1.2 mg./100 ml. 0.1 N HCl for DPn = 1290 is: 5 + log [If]v = 0.209 - 0.047 log [Am]. At [Am] = 0.6 mg. amylose/ 100 ml. 0.1 N HCl and 20°C, the value of [If]v depends on DPn as follows: 5 + log [If]v = 0.085 = + 0.222 log (104/DPn). These above equations are summarized by the relation: [If]v = exp {16.865 - (Ea/RT)}[Am]0.047(104/DPn)0.222 ×10-5 Considering that the determination of [If]v by automatic photometric titration can be performed quickly and with appropriate reproducibility, this method is convenient for a rapid empirical and approximate determination of DP of amylose on a microscale. The iodine-binding capacity [IBC] as well as the value of λmax, have been also investigated as functions of DPn, by photometric and by amperometric titration.

    Notes: The transient electric birefringence behavior of bacteriophage T2 and the T2 ghost or protein coal was studied. The field free relaxation measurements show both the intact virus and its ghost to have two rotary diffusion coefficients. These coefficients have values of 555 ± 54 and 111 ± 22 sec.-1 for the intact virus and 688 ± 89 and 161 ± 29 sec.-l for the ghost. The equivalent ellipsoids for the fast and slow relaxation coefficients were obtained by use of Perrin's equation and were related to the bacteriophage structure in terms of a possible extension of the tail fibers or an enlargement of the head structure. The saturation of the specific birefringence of the phage and the ghost when compared with the specific birefringence of the free nucleic acid gave an average optical orientation of 10 to 18% of the nucleic acid parallel to the main axis of the phage. The analysis of the birefringence versus applied field strength in the Kerr region gave the following values for the anisotropy of the polarixability. αe,33 - αe,11 and intrinsic dipole, μ, of both phage and ghost : for T2 phage αe,33 - αe,11 = 5.0 × 10-14 cm.3 and μ = 64,400 Debyes; for T2 ghost αe,33 - αe,11 = 7.9 × 10-14cm.3 and μ = 57,200 Debyes. The high intrinsic dipole for phage and ghost is interpreted as to be associated with the mechanisms of the virus for attachment, to the host cell wall.

    Notes: The hydration of several polyacids has been investigated with special attention to the effects of neighboring charged groups and hydrophobic groups on the hydration regions. The molar volume change due to the structural change of water by the hydration was obtained by the method of refractivity measurement. The polyacids employed were poly(acrylic acid), poly(methacrylic acid), poly(L-glutamic acid), and a copolymer of maleic acid and vinyl acetate. The measurement of the refractive index was performed for the solutions of these polymers neutralized to varying degrees by tetrabutyl-ammonium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide. The results confirm the characteristics of the previous model of the hydration of polyelectrolytes, that is, the cooperative action of neighboring charged groups induce the second hydration region in addition to the intrinsic hydration region. The stiff structure of water in these regions restricts the mobility of counterions forced to enter into these regions by the strong electrostatic potential of polyions. The results indicate also that hydrophobic groups induce an additional hydration region around their neighboring charged groups. Small but negative volume changes were observed for conformational changes of poly(L-glutamic acid) and poly(methacrylic acid) induced by the neutralization of carboxyl groups.

    Notes: The heat of solution of a series of three polyglutamates as a function of solvent composition was measured. The abrupt increase in heat of solution at the solvent composition of the helix-coil transition (as evidenced by optical rotation data) allows the estimation of the transition enthalpy change. The difference of side chain in the three polyglutamates has no appreciable effect on the transition enthalpy, although it affects the helix stability, as judged from the solvent composition at the transition points. These facts are discussed on the basis of existing models of the transition.

    Notes: Single crystals of poly(γ-benzyl L-glutamate) were formed by epitaxial crystallization from solution in mesitylene on NaCl, KI, and KCl (001) cleavage faces. From electron microscopy and diffraction studies, the structure of these overgrowths was determined to be that of lamellae containing chain-folded α-helical macromolecules. The usual type of crystal perfection, that of ordered helix axes and disordered side groups, was exhibited by this synthetic polypeptide. Unique orientation regimes were observed with each substrate.

    Notes: As a model for a variety of reaction processes on long chain molecules, for example, helix formation, a kinetic theory on a linear lattice is presented. Each reaction site can undergo reversible transitions between two states (0 and 1) with rates depending on the slate of its nearest neighbors. The system of coupled rate equations for the frequencies of specified runs of 0's and 1's is infinite for an infinite chain. In contrast to the case of irreversible processes, the system cannot, be written down by inspection. A procedure for the systematic derivation of the rate equations is developed which can be programmed on a computer. Explicit expressions for runs up to length four, involving runs up to length five are obtained without recourse to the computer. For the solution of the rate equations a closure must necessarily be imposed, and a possible procedure is pointed out. Furthermore the equilibrium relations following from the model are considered. The well-known equilibrium results for nearest-neighbor interactions represent a special case of these equations.

    Notes: Measurements of specific heat of wool-water systems were made at approximately 5°C intervals over the temperature range -70 to 100°C. Ten different, samples were used, each with a different amount of absorbed water in the range from dry ness to saturation at 0°C. The graph of specific heat against temperature for dry wool is precisely linear over the complete temperature range, suggesting that thermal motion is entirely vibrational. When absorbed water is present the data can be conveniently discussed in terms of behavior below and above an amount of absorbed water of 22.7 g in 100 g of wool (22.7% of absorbed water). Below 22.7% there is only one temperature range in which the results indicate an appreciable transition in heat absorbing properties. The temperature of transition depends on water content but is higher than 0°C. Above 22.7% a second transition appears in the range -30 to 0°C and grows rapidly larger with increase of water content. The first transition is tentatively ascribed to a slightly cooperative breakdown of polar bonds in wool, and the second to a process analogous to melting in the absorbed water. The results are discussed in these terms as well as with reference to specific heat theories, the heat absorption of the wool component and the water component, and enthalpy differences between the various samples.

    Notes: Dielectric relaxation of poly(γ-benzyl L-glutamate) in solution has been studied in the 5 kcps-10 Mcps range for various values of the helix content. The results give first experimental evidence for three effects of major significance. (1) The system exhibits dielectric relaxation due to a chemical rate process (namely helix formation). This confirms recent theoretical predictions. (2) The mean relaxation time τ* of the helix-coil transition could be evaluated as a function of the degree of transition. The results are in excellent agreement with a previously developed theory. At the midpoint of transition it is found τ*max = 5 × 10-7 sec. The elementary process of helical growth turns out to be practically diffusion-controlled (with a rate constant of hydrogen bond formation of 1.3 × 1010 sec-1). (3) There is a considerable electric field effect of the helix-coil transition. This indicates that conformation changes in biological systems could be potentially caused by direct action of an electric field.

    Notes: The interaction of unsubstituted purine with polyuridylic acid in D2O solution at neutral pD has been studied by high resolution proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The poly U proton resonances were shifted to higher fields by the added purine, indicating that purine binds to the uracil bases of the polymer by base stacking. Severe broadening of the purine proton resonances was also observed, providing strong evidence for the intercalation of purine between adjacent uracil bases of the polymer. The line widths of the poly U proton resonances were not noticeably broadened in the presence of purine; thus, the binding of purine to poly U does not result in a more rigid or ordered structure for the polymer.

    Notes: Polyelectrolyte expansion effects on high molecular weight bacteriophage DNA have been studied by examining the influence of simple salt concentration upon the intrinsic viscosity, [η]. The viscosity-molecular weight exponent a in the expression [η] = KMa diminishes from 0.8 in 0.005M simple salt to a limiting value of 0.6 for salt concentrations greater than 0.6M at 25°C. The ε parameter of the N1+ε hydrodynamic representation thus varies from approximately 0.2-0.07 over this range of salt concentration. The intrinsic, viscosity of DNA decreases slightly with increasing temperature at low and moderate salt concentrations but becomes independent of temperature at high salt concentrations. The expansion of the DNA molecular domain is linear in the reciprocal square root of the simple salt concentration. Viscosity differences among DNA's isolated from several bacteriophage T5 mutants reflect small differences in molecular weight which are in agreement, with sine determination by other techniques. The DNA's isolated from various rII mutants of T4 bacteriophage including some very large deletion mutations were found to be identically the same size in accord with current genetic ideas. Details of the representation and extrapolation of viscosity data are discussed and the sensitivity of the technique is evaluated.

    Notes: Infrared spectra in the region 4000-60 cm-1 have been measured for acetylglycine N-methylamide and its deuterium homologs, CD3CONHCH2CONHCH3, CH3-CONHCD2CONHCH3, CH2CONHCH2CONHCD3, and CH3CONDCH2CONDCH3. Normal frequencies have also been calculated for these molecules with various conformations. The spectra show that this compound has two crystalline modifications, form A and form B. The frequencies and their isotope shifts show that the molecular conformation (Ψ, φ) of form B is near (0, 120) and that of form A near (180, 120). The short-range factors determining the conformation of peptide backbone having glycine residues are discussed.

    Notes: The objective have been to establish if those ions which are known to change the stability of the structure of proteins, have any influence on the properties of ionizable polypeptides. Potentiometric titrations and complementary optical rotation data are presented for aqueous solutions of poly-L-lysine (PLL) in the presence of KSCN, KCl, and KF, and for poly(L-glutamic acid) (PLGA) in the presence of KSCN, KCl, and LiCl. The following measured quantities which are affected by salt concentration were obtained: intrinsic pK (pK0), slope of pKapp versus degree of ionization (α) curves, the degree of ionization at which the helix to coil transition occurs, and the free energy of this transition for the uncharged molecule (δG°hel). The effects of nonspecific salts (KCl and LiCl for PLL and KSCN and KCl for PLGA) are small, and about, as expected from general electrostatic considerations. In line with the observations made with isoelectric and cat ionic collagen, specific, effects were noted with KSCN-PLL and with LiCl-PLGA. In the presence of KSCN, the poly-L-lysine helix becomes stabilized at much lower degree of ionization than in the presence of KCl, and the slope of the pKapp versus α plots is greatly reduced. However, ΔG°hel (for the uncharged molecule) is not affected, and pK0 is only slightly higher. We interpret these data in terms of binding of SCN- primarily to the side-chain amino groups (both to R—NH3+ and to R—NH2) solutions. (L-glutamic acid) in LiCl solution has its transition at the same α value as in KCl solution. However, both the slopes of the pKapp versus α plots and the absolute values of ΔG°hel are lower than in KCl solution. We interpret these results in terms of binding of Li+ to side chains as well as to the peptide bond.

    Notes: Density increments (∂ρ/∂c2)°μ in solutions of NaDNA in NaCl and CsDNA in CsCl were determined over a wide range of salt concentrations; calf thymus DNA, fragmented by sonic irradiation to a molecular weight of 4-6 × 105 was used. The partial specific volume v̄2° of NaDNA at 25°C was found to ho 0.500 ml/g in water, and that of CsDNA 0.440 ml/g. Both values increase with increasing NaCl and CsCl concentration. Refractive index increments under various experimental conditions were also determined. The relevance of the density increments (at constant, chemical potential of diffusible solutes) to equilibrium sedimentation in a density gradient and the evaluation of molecular weights is discussed. Distribution coefficients of diffusible components, sometimes referred to as preferential solvation or net hydration, were derived from the density increments and partial volumes and compared with direct experimental results, whenever available, from membrane distribution and isopiestic distillation. The thermo-dynamic significance of the distribution coefficients as well as possible interpretations in terms of specific molecular mechanisms are considered.

    Notes: A model for hemoglobin is proposed and its application to allosteric enzymes is discussed with particular reference to asparate transcarbamylase. The main assumptions made are that the molecule is composed of subunits and that occupation of a sub-unit produces a conformational change which affects the occupational probability of neighboring subunits. The results compare favorably with experiment and a number of specific predictions are made for aspartate transcarbamylase.

    Notes: Complexes of amylose with n-butanol were prepared both as crystalline precipitates and as oriented fibers. These complexes were subjected to x-ray analysis, their unit cells were calculated, and the space group of P212121 was confirmed. n-Butanol complexes exist in both hydrated and anhydrous forms. There is no evidence for methanol, ethanol, or n-propanol structures similar to those shown by the n-butanol complex. The Complexes are unstable in the open air and revert to V-amylose hydrate on standing.

    Notes: Collagen fibers were contracted “chemically,” i.e., by transferring them from water into KCNS solutions either isometrically or isotonically. Both changes in force and fiber length and in salt and water contents were measured as functions of time. The mechanical changes were found to follow the diffusional processes. The diffusion of water exhibited a plasmolytie effect. The role of water in the melting process is discussed.

    Notes: The correlation between mechanical and chemical Processes in the contractile system collagen fibers-aqueous KCNS sulutions was investigated. Melting and contraction of the fibers were induced by applying a force sufficiently high as to prevent melting in a KCNS solution and then decreasing it either suddenly, or continuously at a constant rate. The kinetics of both processes are characterized by an initial rapid elastic response of the crystalline collagen, followed by a stationary region. The force-velocity relationship in this region was found to be the same under different types of mechanical deformations. It is probable that under the prevailing conditions, the behavior in the stationary state is determined by the melting process and is not markedly influenced by diffusional changes. Part of the experimental data could be explained by assuming a linear, rigid model or, better, by taking into account the highly elastic properties of the amorphous collagen. The kinetic, unit seems to be composed of several hundred amino acid residues.

    Notes: The dynamic elastic behavior of collagen fibers treated by LiBr solutions was studied by the method of free longitudinal vibrations. The frequency response functions and the stress-strain relationship were evaluated for fibers denatured to different extents by various concentrations of the salt solution. The James and Guth model for rubber elasticity was applied to the experimental data. The elastometric parameter β, which is a measure of the degree of folding of the macromolecular chains, was found to decrease on increasing the salt concentration. It might thus serve as a characteristic of the degree of denaturation of fibrillar proteins.

    Notes: Sodium hyaluronate (NaHy) and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) behave similarly with respect to concentration.N 3 of an added 1 : 1 electrolyte. The second virial coefficient A2 (light scattering) is identical within experimental error at a given.N 3. The limiting viscosity number [η] also varies with N3-1/2in similar fashion for samples of similar [η] of the two polymers. Differences in Na+ activity in salt-free solutions are interpreted on the basis of weaker Na+ binding in NaHy, presumably due to the greater charge separation along its chain backbone. Added electrolyte is excluded in dialysis more strongly by NaHy (or its acid form) than by NaCMC. The Flory parameter Φ is smaller in good solvents for NaHy, as for many other polyelectrolytes, than for nonionic polymers.

    Notes: In order to test theoretical predictions that poly-L-valine can exist in an α-helical conformation, water-soluble block copolymers of L-valine and D, L-lysine were prepared. By carrying out the synthesis on a resin support (with the use of N-carboxyanhydrides) contamination of the individual blocks by any unreacted monomer from the previous block was avoided. A single glycine residue was incorporated at the C-terminus of the chain for use in amino acid analyses. Using optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism criteria, about 50% of the short valine block of (D, L-lysine HCl)18-(L-valine)15-(D, L-lysine-HCl)16-glycine was found to be in the right-handed α-helical conformation in 98% aqueous methanol, in water, the polymer appears to be a dimer, with the valine block being involved in the formation of an intermolecular β-structure.

    Notes: Calculations of the dependence of the conformational energy and the rotational strength of the amide n-π* electronic transition (in a series of α-helical polyhel-α- amino acids with different side chains) on conformation have been carried out. The conformational energies were computed by procedures developed in this laboratory; the computation of rotational strengths was carried out by the method of Schellman and Oriel, with a slight modification. Polyamino acids with both nonpolar and polar side chains were considered; in the latter case, it was assumed that the only influence of the polar side chain was on the backbone conformation and on the electrostatic field which perturbs the amide chromophore of the backbone. Only conformations in the range of backbone dihedral angles of the right- and left-handed a-helices were considered, and the assumption of regularity (i.e., uniformity of dihedral angles in every residue) was made. The rotational strength per residue was found to vary markedly with chain length (in oligomers of up to 40 residues long); both the conformational energy per residue and the rotational strength per residue were found to vary significantly with the backbone conformation, which in turn depends on the nature of the side chain. The geometry of the hydrogen bond in the α-helical backbone is the most important factor which influences the dependence of the rotational strength on conformation. The implications of these results, for the interpretation of experimental circular dichroism and optical rotatory dispersion data, are discussed.

    Notes: A series of copolymers of β-p-nitrobenzyl L-aspartate with β-benzyl L-aspartate and with β-mcthyl L-aspartatc in helix-supporting and helix-breaking conditions have been reexamined by using ultraviolet isotropic, absorption, optical rotatory dispersion, and circular dichroism techniques. Many different conformations are apparent, depending on solvent and temperature. Chloroform, trifluoroethanol, and methylene dichloride support the left-handed helical conformation of the copolymers containing less than about 20 mole-% nitroaromatic residues and the right-handed helical conformation of the copolymers containing more than approximately 30 mole-% nitroaromatic residues. In trifluoroacetic acid all the copolymers are in a random-coil conformation. In hexa-fluoroacetone trihydrate and in trimethyl phosphate, the copolypeptides with low nitroaromatic residues content are predominantly in a disordered conformation, while those with high nitroaromatic residues content show a right-handed helical array. Reversible helix-ramlom-coil transitions are observed with increasing temperature in trimethyl phosphate. An example of right-handed-left-handed helix reversible transition with temperature is reported in a chloroform-trimethyl phosphate (2:1) mixture. Nitrobenzyl-nilrobenzyl side-chain interactions in chloroform, but not in trifluoroacetic acid or in trimethyl phosphate, have been confirmed. For the first time we report the circular dichroism spectra in which the n-π* peptide band of a left-handed helical conformation is almost completely evident.

    Notes: The dichroic ratios of T5st-O and T2H bacteriophage DNA molecules were measured throughout the ultraviolet region of the spectrum. Two methods of DNA orientation were studied: (1) orientation in solution in a Shimadzu flow dichroism instrument attached to a Beckman DU spectrophotometer, and (2) alcohol precipitation of the DNA from solution and orientation in a thin film on the quartz face of a humidity chamber. Spectra in the latter case were recorded using a Gary Model 14 spectrophotomcter fitted with Glan prisms. The lower wavelength limit was 215 mμ in both systems. The DNA preparations were carefully characterized as to spectral purity, sedimentation coefficient, hyperchromicity, protein content, and DNA content. In addition, the structure of the DNA oriented in films was inferred from x-ray diffraction patterns of fibers of the precipitated DXA. The A and B configurations of DNA in films could not be distinguished by the dichroic ratio measuiements. The dichroic ratio obtained for the film-oriented DNA at high relative humidity shows the same wavelength dependence as for the flow-oriented DNA. The same wavelength dependence for DNA in the fibrous state and in solution, when considered together with the x-ray diffract ion results, indicates that DNA in solution maintains an orientation of bases which is similar to that in fibers. I1Or both solutions and films of DNA, the dichroic ratio is constant from 290mμ to 240 mμ and increases at wavelengths below 240 mμ. The increased parallel absorption below 240 mμ is consistent with the existence of an n→π* transition. The inherent molecular dichroic ratio is found to be the same for T5st-O DNA and T2H DNA in solution, and is a maximum of 0.09 ± 0.02 at 260 mμ.

    Notes: This paper gives a very simple method based on the characteristic property of the electric free energy to calculate the repulsive force between parallel rodlike macroions in a solution as a function of the charge density on rods. The total extensive force (∂f/∂X) of an assembly of m rods of length l and charge number n (charge density - neo /l) at small extension X in the absence of low molecular sals is given by where z is the valency of counterions and Q (= neO2/εkTl) is a dimensionless quantity representing the charge density. The repulsion between two parallel rods is given by putting m = 2. At large charge densities the repulsion is very much smaller than the direct coulomb force between charged rods, even at small distances. The addition of low molecular salts does not depress the repulsion appreciably, as long as the average concentration of salt ions is much smaller than the concentration of counterions accumulated in the space between rods. The effect of fluctuation of the coumerion distribution is also analyzed, and it is found that the attractive force due to the ion fluctuation may predominate over the above repulsive force in the case of polyvalent counterions and rods of high charge densities at small distances.

    Notes: The matrix method of statistical mechanics is used to calculate equilibria for the binding of small molecules to polymers. When there is only one kind of binding site the problem is simple; some examples are given for illustrative purposes. If, however, the binding sites are not all equivalent and the bound molecules interact or interfere with each other, the problem is no longer trivial, being formally analogous with calculation of the helix-coil transition equilibrium in a heterogeneous polypeptide. Particular difficulties arise when the sequence of binding sites is aperiodic; most naturally occurring materials fall in this class. The purpose of this paper is to point out that problems of this type are readily solved with good accuracy by use of random-number methods on a high-speed digital computer. One such calculation is presented for illustration. The methods developed are applicable to such systems as the binding of actinomycin, Hg-, and acridine dyes to DNA.

    Notes: The aggregated form of poly(L-glutamic acid) can be isolated by gel permeation chromatography, whereby it was found that in a polydispersed sample the lower molecular weight fractions precipitate preferentially and the higher fractions tend instead to aggregate. In addition, aggregation has the effect of retarding or inhibiting precipitation.

    Notes: The instability of aqueous solutions of poly(α-L-glutamic acid) (PGA) at low pH is due to two distinguishable phenomena: precipitation, favored above 40°C., and aggregation, favored below 20°C. The aggregated form of PGA can be isolated by gel permeation chromatography. Both aggregation and precipitation increase with decreasing pH, i.e., with decreasing ionization of the side chain carboxyl groups. Temperature-induced aggregation and disaggregation give rise to a reproducible hysteresis loop which can be followed by optical rotation, light scattering, sedimentation, viscosity, and chromatography. Hysteresis has been observed with different PGA samples, and in several aqueous buffered or unbuffered solvents and organic-aqueous solvent mixtures and in the pH range 4.1-4.5. Aggregation manifests itself as an increase in negative optical rotation in the visible and ultraviolet spectral range. The specific relation at 233 mμ is sensitive to aggregation and also reflects the hysteresis. Measurements of optical rotatory dispersion indicate that a0 reflects the hysteresis but b0 does not, the latter revealing only reversible changes with aggregation and disaggregation. The helix-coil equilibrium is apparently unperturbed by aggregation, as is the thermal stability of the helix structure. For fully aggregated PGA it is estimated that a0 increases by about 300 degrees, which suggests that a0 may be a sensitive parameter to measure aggregation in other systems. The rate of aggregation increases with decreasing temperature. The disaggregation, upon heating, is more rapid. However, kinetics measurements have not yet been done. The temperature M at which all aggregates are disrupted increases with decreasing pH, but is independent of total PGA concentration, at constant pH. No molecular weight dependence of M was detected in the range 20-100 × 103. The shape and size of the hysteresis loop depends upon pH and molecular weight, which is interpreted as a dependence on the extent of aggregation. One branch of the loop, representing the helix-coil transition of isolated molecules, is reversible, while the others, representing the formation and disruption of the aggregates, are not. The system exhibits both ascending and descending scanning curves, which are typical of a true hysteresis.

    Notes: The interaction of hapten (ε-DNP lys) with native and S-sulfonated antibodies specific towards the 2,4-dinitrophenyl group, as well as the interaction with isolated chains and a complex obtained by mixing light, (L) and heavy (H) chains of these antibodies, were followed both by polarography and by equilibrium dialysis. With the S-sulfonated antibodies and with the mixture of H and L chains the binding heterogeneity observed in the original antibodies was much lowered or entirely removed. At the same time, the amount of active proteins in the sample decreased approximately by half. The association constants of modified antibodies were of the same order as the average association constants of the original antibodies. A slow increase of the amounts of hapten bound with proteins was observed on mixing the H and L chains and adding hapten. This slow reactivation was not obtained with the original or S-sulfonated antibodies and with isolated chains. It was shown that the reaction determining the kinetics of this reactivation (the slowest reaction) was not the association of H and L chains but the interaction of complexes of the H and L chains with hapten. It was reported previously that H chains were nonspecifically reactivated by binding L chains. The amount of hapten bound by the complex of H and L chains increased with increasing excess of L chains following a curve resembling the Langmuir isotherm. The limiting value of the amount of hapten bound when using antibody L chains was higher than in the case of nonspecific L chains.

    Notes: The rate of breakage by hydrodynamic shear of the cohered ends of λ-DNA molecules has been observed for the circular monomers, joined half molecules, and joined quarter molecules, in a capillary apparatus with known flow parameters. The rate constant for breakage has been measured as a function of shear stress, temperature, ionic strength, and molecular length. There is a large temperature coefficient, with an activation energy of 120 ± 20 kcal./mole. The values of d ln k/dG, where k is the rate constant for breaking and G is shear gradient, in aqueous solution at 25°C. are about 3.8 ± 0.3 × 10-4 see. The shear stresses needed for breakage of joined quarter molecules and of circular monomers, respectively, are about equal, and about half that needed for breakage of joined half molecules. The rate of breakage at a given shear stress increases with decreasing ionic strength, approximately as [Na+]-1.6. Self-protection effects are not observed for opening of circular monomers at a DNA concentration of 5 μg./ml. but are observed for breakage of joined half molecules at concentrations down to 0.5 μg./ml. The large temperature coefficient which is approximately equal to that of the thermal dissociation of the cohered ends is interpreted to mean that shear breakage is a mechanically assisted thermal reaction in which the thermal fluctuations provide most of the free energy of activation for breakage. A detailed model for this interpretation is presented. The self-protection effect implies that those molecules which break are not average molecules but exceptional ones which, due to some fluctuation, are more fully extended in the flow field.

    Notes: The dynamic viscoelastic properties of hyaluronic acid solutions have been measured over the frequency range 0.02-1.67 cps. The effects of varying temperature, hyaluronic acid concentration, pH, and ionic strength on the dynamic shear moduli were studied. The solutions exhibited a sharp transition from viscous to elastic behavior as the strain frequency increased. No entanglement coupling of the hyaluronic acid molecules was evident over the concentration range 2.0-4.0 mg./ml. Solutions at pH 2.5 showed a pronounced elastic behavior relative to both higher and lower pH's. This effect was attributed to a stiffening of the hyaluronic acid molecule at this pH.

    Notes: Some general rules governing hydrogen bonding at the ring oxygens of furanosides, pyranosides, and bridge oxygens of glycosides have been formulated from existing data on crystal structures of carbohydrates. Ring oxygens of the majority of the glycopyranosides in the hemiacetal or acetal form are involved in hydrogen bonding such that the hydrogen bond direction is usually equatorial to the ring plane and not axial. In contrast, there are no known examples of ring oxygens of glycofuranosides and methyl-glycopyranosides displaying hydrogen bonding in the crystal. Also, the bridge oxygens of glycosides are not involved in hydrogen bonding. The observed shortening in the exocyclic and endocyclic anomeric C(1)—O bonds and the geminal C—O bonds indicate that compounds with two oxygen atoms attached to the same saturated carbon atom may participate in double-bond-no-bond resonance interaction in the same manner as difluoromethane. It is also possible that under these circumstances the carbon atom exhibits greater than tetracovalency. The “anomeric effect” may also be related to (a) the differences in the “double bonding” or bond shortening in the anomeric C—O bonds of the anomeric glycopyranosides, (b) the shorter intramolecular O(1)…O(5) non-bonded interaction, and (c) the smaller O(1)C(1)O(5) valence angle in the equatorial anomer compared to the axial anomer. An analysis has been made of the energetically preferred conformations about the glycosyl and glycosidic bonds of 1,4- and 1,3-polysuc-charides. In the 1a, 4e-glycopyranosides the projected angle φ1 [O(5)C(1)OR, where R = C or H] is positive, while it is negative in the 1e, 4e-glycopyranosides. Angle φ2 [C(1)OC(4′)C(3′)] is positive in both the 1,4-anomeric polyglycosides. 1e, 4e- and 1a, 4e -polysaccharides are stabilized by intramolecular O(5)…H—O(3′) and O(2′)…O(3′) hydrogen bonding, respectively, and generate linear and helical (cyclic) structures, respectively. 1e, 3e- and 1a, 3e-polysaccharides may be stablized by one of two possible intramolecular hydrogen-bonding schemes such that the 1a, 3e -polysaccharides generate helical structures while the 1a, 3e-polysaccharides generate nonhelical structures. The conformation about the C(5)—C(6) bond in the pyranosides falls into two groups where the angle φ00 [O(5)C(5)C(6)O(6)] is either positive, ∼+60 ± 30°, or negative, ∼-60 ± 30°, the former conformation being found more frequently. In the furanosides the latter conformation is preferred.

The effects of these salts on the helix-coil transition of rA-rU and rI-rC helices were examined. Increasing the size of the hydrophobic substituents, R1, R2, and R3 lowers the degree of stabilization of the helical structure. The disproportionation reaction, 2rA-rU→rA-rU2 + rA occurs readily with salts II and III, especially when the substituents, R1, R2, and R3 are small, i.e., H or Me. Spermine is found to stabilize the rA-rU2 and rI-rC helices to approximately the same extent; however, large differences between the degree of stabilization of rA-rU2 and rI-rC helices are observed when the substituents R1, R2, and R3 are large hydrophobic groups. Similar results are also obtained for the spermidine series. Finally, differences in the interactions of the salts II and III with rA-rU2 and rI-rC helices suggest that the latter helix is denser.

    Notes: Studies have been made of the d.c. semiconductive behavior of fibers and solid gels of DNA. The semiconductive behavior under high vacuum is similar in solid gels of DNA and stretched fibers of DNA measured along and across the fiber axis. Photoelectric effects have been studied, and an action spectrum is reported which agrees with the absorption spectrum of DNA. No photoelectric effects are observed at wavelengths corresponding to the thermal energy gap. The temperature dependence of the photocurrent has been determined, and the effects of air, oxygen, and nitrogen at different pressures on the photocurrent have been measured.

    Notes: The predominant role of van der Waal interactions in determining the helical conformations of a simple synthetic linear polymer, as well as helical polypeptides, was pointed out in systematic studies by Liquori et al.1,2. In the case of homopolypeptides the conformational analysis carried out on the basis of a simple semiempirical function describing the van der Waal pairwise interactions between the non directly bonded atoms lead to the conclusion that only five helices are allowed (Rα, β, γ, δ, Lα).2,3In view of the close similarities with poly-L-alanine, we have investigated by x-ray and conformational analysis the molecular conformation of poly(S-lactic acid) which has recently been described by Kleine and Kleine4 and Schuls and Schwaab5 and studied in solution by Goodman and D'Alagni.6 In fact, this polymer may be related to the polypeptide by the interchange of a peptide bond with ester bond along the main chain. This operation is expected to involve only a relatively small change in the steric interaction within the possible helical conformation, but obviously rules out any possibility of hydrogen bonding.

    Notes: Poly-L-prolines I and II were differentiated by the characteristic bands in the far infrared region. Form I showed two broad bands at about 280 and 160 cm-1 and form II two bands at, 400 and 670 cm.-1. Furthermore, three broad bands at about 250, 200, and 100 cm.-1 were observed in the spectrum for form II. Infrared absorption bands of the pentamer, hexamer, and octamer of tert-amyloxycarbonyl-L-proline were almost similar to those of poly-L-proline II in the 1800-75 cm.-1 region. In the far-infrared region, especially, the absorption bands of these three oligopeptides were in good agreement with that of poly-L-proline II. Accordingly we concluded that the molecules of pentamer, hexamer, and octamer had a helical structure of a left-handed threefold screw axis. The tetrapeptide of tert-amyloxycarbonyl-L-proline might also have a left-handed helix, probably one turn, since the tetramer clearly showed an absorption band at about 400 cm.--1 characteristic of poly-L-proline II.

    Notes: The conformational properties of poly-L-alanine have been examined in aqueous solutions in order to investigate the influence of hydrophobic interactions on the helix-random coil transition. Since water is a poor solvent for poly-L-alanine, water-soluble copolymers of the type (D, L-lysine)m-(Lalanine)n-(D, L-lysine)m, having 10, 160, 450, and 1000 alanyl residues, respectively, in the central block, were synthezised. The optical rotatory dispersion of the samples was investigated in the range 190-500 mμ, and the rotation at 231 mμ was related to the α-helix content, θH, of the alanine section. In salt-free solutions, at neutral pH, the three large polymers show high θH values, which are greatly reduced when the temperature is increased from 5 to 80°C. No helicity was observed for the small (n = 10) polymer. By applying the Lifson-Roig theory, the following parameters were obtained for the transition of a residue from a coil to a helical state: ν = 0.012; ΔH = -190 ± 40 cal./mole; ΔS = -0.55 ± 0.12 e.u. Since ΔH and ΔS differ from the values expected for a process involving only the formation of a hydrogen bond, and in a manner predicted by theories for the influence of hydrophobic bonding on helix stability, it is concluded that a hydrophobic interaction is also involved. In the presence of salt (0.2M NaCl), or when the ε-amino groups of the lysyl residues are not protonated (pH = 12), the helical form of the two large polymers (n = 450 and n = 1000) is more stable than in water. Since the electrostatic repulsion between the lysine end blocks is greatly reduced under these conditions, the alanine helical sections fold back on themselves, and this conformation is stabilized by interchain hydrophobia bonds. This structure was predicted by the theory for the equilibrium between such interacting helices, non-interacting helices, and the random coil.

    Notes: Methods for calculating the rate of cooperative transitions on a linear lattice, for which the helix-coil transition of polypeptides is an example, are reported. The problem is to determine the kinetic characteristics of the transition given the rate constants for a set of elementary steps: in this case, the transformations of individual segments between the helix and coil states. The most straightforward method is to store the state of a long lattice (in which helix and coil segments are represented by 1′s and 0′s) in a computer and to use random-number techniques to generate its behavior as a function of time. This is, in principle, a solution to the problem, but it requires very large amounts of computer time. We have devised a matrix iteration procedure which allows much faster computation while reproducing the results of the random-number method accurately. In this procedure the computer operates repeatedly with a transition probability matrix on a vector which represents the time-dependent state of a finite group of units. The choice of a finite group neglects kinetic correlations between the state changes of units inside and outside the group, but comparison with the random-number method indicates that these correlations are not important. Thus it is possible to generate the kinetic behavior of the model under essentially any conditions, for either relaxation or large perturbations. Examination of these calculated curves suggests a simple and quite generally applicable solution to the inverse problem - that of evaluating the rate constants from kinetic curves. The initial slope is well defined in almost every case, and since an analytic equation can be written relating this to the rate constants, these can be obtained directly from the initial rate. This latter is therefore the most convenient single measure of transition rate.

    Notes: By using optical rotatory dispersion measurements, the helix content of poly Glu50Lys50 has been investigated and compared with that of poly Glu20Lys20Ala60 in aqueous solutions. Measurements were made at pH 3 and at pH 8 in various concentrations of lithium bromide. Various factors affecting helix stabilization are considered and their perturbation by lithium bromide is related to the shape of the observed transition curves. A residual helix content of 12% in 8M LiBr, based upon a b0 of +100 for a fully random conformation, was observed for poly Glu50Lys50 at pH 3 and 8. The loss of helix content of poly Glu50Lys50 as a function of temperature is also reported. ΔH is approximately -6.9 kcal./mole for the overall transition, compared to -6.5 kcal./mole for poly Glu20Lys20Ala60. The midpoint of the broad transition is near 40°C. at pH 3, but much lower, at -10 to 0°C., at pH 8. These results are discussed in terms of the stabilizing factors for the partial helix content of the polypeptides.

    Notes: The absorption spectrum of the aqueous solution of acridine orange (AO)-poly-(D-glutamic acid) (PDGA) complex at pH 4.5 (helix form) did not show any wavelength shift, but at pH 7.5 (coil form) changed to the absorption curve of the helix form by compression up to 4500 atm. The ionization degree of PDGA estimated from the electric conductivity of the aqueous solution of PDGA at 4500 atm. was a value of about 5.3%. The entropy of the helix formation of PDGA from the titration data at 1 atm. and 30°C. was negative -2.98 e.u. It will be concluded in this report that the volume change for coil to helix could be positive for PDGA and negative for AO-PDGA complexes.

    Notes: The optical rotatory dispersion, hypochromism, and proton magnetic resonance were measured for a number of dinucleoside phosphates in both dilute salt solutions and in 25.2% LiCl (which freezes below -70°C.) as a function of temperature. Two models for the “disordering” of dinucleoside phosphates: the two-state model and the oscillating dimer model, are used to analyze the data. Both models fit some of the data, but neither are completely satisfactory. Evidence is given for a dynamic structure of dinucleoside phosphates, in which the bases oscillate with respect to one another, remaining parallel to one another with no solvent in between, even at high temperatures. Implications of this model to the structures of single-strand sections of RNA's are discussed.

    Notes: If the collagen triple helix is so built as to have one set of NH ⃛ O hydrogen bonds of the type N3H3(A) ⃛ O2(B), then it is possible to have a linkage between N1H1(B) and O1(A) through the intermediary of a water molecule with an oxygen O1W leading to the formation of the hydrogen bonds N1(B) ⃛ O1W and O1W (A). In the same configuration, another water molecule with an oxygen O1W can link two earbonyl oxygens of chains A and B forming the hydrogen bonds O2W O1(A) and O2W O0 (B). The two water oxygens also become receptors at the same time for CH ⃛ O hydrogen bonds. Thus, the neighboring chains in the triple helix are held together by secondary valence bond linkages occurring regularly sit intervals of about 3 Å along the length of the protofibril. The additional water molecules occur on the periphery of the proto-fibril and will contribute their full share towards stabilizing the structure in the solid state. In solution, they will be disturbed by the medium unless they are protected by long side groups. It appears that this type of two-bonded structure, in which one NH ⃛ O bond is to a water molecule, can explain several observations on the stability and hydrogen exchange properties of collagen itself and related synthetic polypeptides. The nature of the water bonds and their strength are found to be better in the one-bonded structure proposed from Madras than in the one having the coordinates of Rich and Crick.

    Notes: The study of the structure of KBr-amylose begun by Senti and Witnauer has been extended by a three-dimensional crystallographic analysis and by stereochemical considerations. Location of Br- at (0.200, 0.200, 0.000) and K+ at (0.540, 0.540, 0.000) was obtained from the three-dimensional map of vector interactions. By using known parameters for the D-glucose residue and accurate space-filling models, an amylose helix was constructed to meet the fiber repeat spacing of 16.1 Å. The helix was determined to be left-handed, and the correct space group for KBr-amylose is P43 212. Placement of the helix in the unit cell resulted from structure factor calculations; minima in the grid of R values were checked with space-filling models to establish the final structure. Both ions are located in a waterlike environment. The oxygen atoms O(2), O(3), and O(4) from glucose residues on adjacent chains coordinate around K+.

    Notes: We present here a brief analysis of ultraviolet isotropic absorption and related circular dichroism of the n-π* and π-π* transitions for the peptide (amide) chromophore in the 185-240 mμ region. Investigations by ultraviolet absorption and circular dichroism techniques on natural amino acids with aromatic chromophores in their side chains are also reported. By taking into account both the peptide and aromatic transitions we discuss the conformational studies of proteins with aromatic side-chain effects. Our attention is largely focused on the optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism spectra of these proteins in the near ultraviolet region, where characteristic aromatic side-chain bands occur. The 185-240 mμ region is also discussed when evidence exists of overlapping Cotton effects of aromatic and peptide groups.

    Notes: Recent improvements in apparatus permit the examination of circular dichroism (CD) and optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) spectra to 185 mμ. In addition, new solvents which are transparent to 185 mμ have become available for synthetic polypeptides. The spectral region 185-250 mμ is extremely important for the amide (peptide) chromophore, because of the presence at these wavelengths of the n-π* and π-π* bands,1 and of another transition, the assignment of which remains unsettled.2

    Notes: A method is reported for calculating the melting curve of a DNA molecule of random base sequence, including in the formalism the dependence of the free energy of base pair formation on the size of a denatured section. Some explicit results are shown for a “typical” base sequence, in particular the probability of helix formation at individual base pairs in several different regions of the molecule and the amount of melting from the end of the chain. Particular attention is drawn to the variation of local melting behavior from one region of the molecule to another. It is found that sections rich in AT melt at relatively low temperatures with a fairly broad transition curve, whereas regions rich in GC pairs melt at higher temperatures (as expected) with a very abrupt, local transition curve. To account qualitatively for the results one may divide melting into two kinds of processes: (a) the nucleation and growth of denatured regions, and (b) the merging together of two denatured sections at the expense of the intervening helix. The first of these processes dominates in the first stages of melting, and leads to rather broad local melting curves, whereas the second process predominates in the later stages, and occurs, in a particular part of the molecule, over a very narrow temperature range. It is estimated that the average length of a helix plus adjacent coil section at the midpoint of the transition is approximately 600 base pairs. Since transition curves which measure the local melting behavior reflect local compositions fluctuations, these curves contain information about the broad outlines of base sequence in the molecule. Some suggestions are made concerning experiments by which this potential information source could be exploited. In particular, it is pointed out that one might hope to map AT or GC rich regions at particular genetic loci in a biologically active DNA molecule. Values of the relevant parameters found earlier for the transition of homopolymers produce melting curves for a DNA of random base sequence which are in good agreement with the experimental transition curve for T2 phage DNA. Hence the present theoretical picture of the melting of polynucleotides is at least internally self-consistent.

    Notes: Studies have been made of the contraction of collagen fibers in acetone due to the action of LiBr. No contraction occurs unless a small amount of water is added; on further increase of the water concentration, the fibers relax. The first contraction is irreversible. The effect of water is discussed in terms of hydrate formation.

    Notes: Knowledge of the total particle volume and the specific volumes of the constituent polar and nonpolar amino acid residues of a globular protein may be used in suitable instances to estimate the size and shape, of the macromolecule. Use has been made of the data, which is available in the literature for phycocyanin from Plectonema calothricoidcs, to predict possible models for the monomer and hexamer forms of this protein. The monomer is well represented by a prolate ellipsoid with semiaxes of 45 and 17Å and an approximate molecular weight of (46000). The hexamer is envisaged as the aggregate of six such monomers, in juxtaposition, with their major axes parallel so as to form a closed ring structure of about 268000 molecular weight. These proposed models are consistent with the previously published electron micrographs and hydrodynamic properties of this protein.

    Notes: A computer program has been developed for calculating equilibrium centrifugation density distributions by direct integration of tabulated data, which eliminates curve fitting. Error calculations showed that a high accuracy is required for the measurement of the data needed a determine a density distribution either by computation or by direct measurements. In particular, the variation in drop size during the fractionation of the contents of a centrifuge tube have been investigated by computer simulation. A direct measurement of the drop size indicated that it may increase somewhat during collection. In addition, plots are presented of the dependence upon seven parameters of the centrifugation required to approach equilibrium to a desired degree (based on the formula of Van Holde and Baldwin).

    Notes: This paper reports a calculation of the angular dependence of light scattering from wormlike chains with excluded volume effects. The Daniels distribution function, modified for excluded volume effects, is used to compute averages for scattering elements separated by contour lengths which are long with respect to the persistence length of the chain. An expansion in terms of exactly known moments of the distribution for the wormlike coil without excluded volume is used for short contour lengths. The results are applied to scattering from calf thymus (M = 18.1 × 106) and T7 (M = 25.4 × 106) DNA. It is demonstrated that the same values of excluded volume parameter (ε = 0.11) and statistical segment length (1/λ′ = 900 Å) which explain the sedimentation and viscosity behavior of DNA also account satisfactorily for the scattering behavior. Molecular weights and root-mean-square radii estimated by extrapolation from scattering data obtained in the angular region from 10° to 25° will be 5-10% too large for DNA of molecular weight 20 × 106-30 × 106.

    Notes: Using potential energy formulas for variation of bond angles and for ω-distortion, the conformation of minimum energy for the cisform of the petide unit has been worked out. This agrees very well with the corresponding set of atoms in the crystal structure of Leu-Pro-Gly and the dimensions of a standard cispeptide unit are given based on these. The conformational (φ,Ψ) map for a cispeptide unit has been worked out from contact criteria, both for a pair of linked units as well as for-helices having constant (φ,Ψ). The small allowed region of the helical map contains the conformation experimentally observed for poly-L-proline I.

    Notes: Phosphorescence and fluorescence from the dye in complexes of DNA with 9-amino-acridine and acridine orange in a glycerol-H2O glass have been measured at 77°K. The dependence of the p/fratio for 9-aminoacridine on the exciting wavelength demonstrates triplet-triplet energy transfer from DNA to dye. The result provides evidence for π electron overlap between the dye and the bases of native DNA. The observation that the magnitude of the enhancement in ultraviolet-excited dye phosphorescence increases with the base to dye ratio indicates triplet delocalization in the polymer. Preliminary flash experiments provide evidence that this delocalization is not limited by slow diffusion of the triplet exciton. The inability to detect transfer on denaturation of the DNA illustrates the sensitivity of triplet-triplet energy transfer to the conformation of the macromolecular complex.

    Notes: The ratio of the intrinsic viscosities of the linear and circular forms of λ DNA, [η]L/[η]c, has been measured as a function of ionic strength in the range [Na+] = 0.6. M-0.03MCorrections were made for the presence of uncyclizable linear contaminant in circular preparations. By combining data in the literature on the ionic strength dependence of linear DNA of various molecular weights with that obtained here, it was possible to determine the expansion parameter εL as a function of [Na+]. εL is defined by the relation 〈L2〉 = b2N1+εL, where 〈L1〉 is the mean-square end-to-end distance of a chain of N segments of length b. The empirical relation εL = 0.05 - 0.11 log [Na+] for native NaDNA at 25°C is found. When εL = 0, [η]L/[η]c extrapolates to 1.6, in good agreement with the theoretical prediction of 1.55. As εL increases, [η]L/[η]c increases, in agreement with a theory of Bloomfield and Zimm.

    Notes: A detailed comparison of the various models used in the literature to calculate the melting curve of DNA molecules is made. It is shown that basically all the models are identical. The form developed earlier by the authors has been extended to include the dependence of the correlation parameter on the type and the orientation of the nearest neighbor bonds. A rather exhaustive theoretical study of the metling curves for the synthetic polydeoxyribose copolymers is made. A comparison of these results with the suggested experimental results obtained will enable us to decide on a reliable model which could be used to determine the melting curve if the sequence of the bonds is given. A preliminary discussion of a very general model which we will call a “bubble model” is given.

    Notes: From the sedimentation-diffusion equilibria of some polymer solutions the average molecular weights M̄n, M̄w, M̄z, and M̄z+1 have been determined in different ways. In particular, the applicability of Fujita's method, which utilizes concentration gradient values at the midpoint of the solution column at a number of rotor speeds, was examined. It appears that if the gradients at some other places in the column are also used, a smaller range of rotor speeds suffices. This method is generally applicable for determining the average molecular weights specified above.
