    Notizen: Twelve- and sixteen-residue peptides have been designed to form tetrameric alphahelical bundles. Both peptides are capable of folding into amphiphilic alpha-helices, with leucyl residues along one face and glutamyl and lysyl residues along the opposite face. Four such amphiphilic alpha-helices are capable of forming a noncovalently bonded tetramer. Neighboring helices run in antiparallel directions in the design, so that the complex has 222 symmetry. In the designed tetramer, the leucyl side chains interdigitate in the center in a hydrophobic interaction, and charged side chains are exposed to the solvent. The designed 12-mer(ALPHA-1) has been synthesized, and it forms helical aggregates in aqueous solution as judged by circular dichroic spectroscopy. It has also been crystallized and characterized by x-ray diffraction. The crystal symmetry is compatible with (but does not prove) the design. The design can be extended to a four-alpha-helical bundle formed from a single polypeptide by adding three peptide linkers.

    Notizen: Recent work has shown that, with synthetic analogues of C-peptide (residues 1-13 of ribonuclease A), the stability of the peptide helix in H2O depends strongly on the charge on the N-terminal residue. We have asked whether, in semisynthetic ribonuclease S reconstituted from S-protein plus an analogue of S-peptide (1-15), the stability of the peptide helix is correlated with the Tm of the reconstituted ribonuclease S. Six peptides have been made, which contain Glu9 → Leu, a blocked α-COO- group (—CONH2), and either Gln11 or Glu11. The N-terminal residue has been varied; its charge varies from +2 (Lys) to -1 (succinyl-Ala). We have measured the stability of the peptide helix, the affinity of the peptide for S-protein (by C.D. titration), and the thermal stability of the reconstituted ribonuclease S.All six peptide analogues show strongly enhanced helix formation compared to either S-peptide (1-15) or (1-19), and the helix content increases as the charge on the N-terminal residue changes from +2 to -1. All six peptides show increased affinity for S-protein compared to S-peptide (1-19), and all six reconstituted ribonucleases S show an increase in Tm compared to the protein with S-peptide (1-19). The Tm increases as the charge on residue 1 changes from +2 to -1. The largest increment in Tm is 6°.The results suggest that the stability of a protein can be increased by enhancing the stability of its secondary structure.

    Notizen: Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis has been used to replace α-helical glycines in the N-terminal domain of λ repressor with alanines. Since alanine is a significantly better helix-forming residue than glycine, these changes were predicted to have a stabilizing effect. We show that the Gly46→Ala substitution, the Gly48→Ala substitution, and the double substitution increase the melting temperature of the N-terminal domain by 3-6°.

    Notizen: A method to be used for experimental studies of protein folding introduced by Schmid and Baldwin (J. Mol. Biol. 135: 199-215, 1979), which is based on the competition between amide hydrogen exchange and protein refolding, was extended by using rapid mixing techniques and 1H NMR to provide site-resolved kinetic information on the early phases of protein structure acquisition. In this method, a protonated solution of the unfolded protein is rapidly mixed with a deuterated buffer solution at conditions assuring protein refolding in the mixture. This simultaneously initates the exchange of unprotected amide protons with solvent deuterium and the refolding of protein segments which can protect amide groups from further exchange. After variable reaction times the amide proton exchange is quenched while folding to the native form continues to completion. By using 1H NMR, the extent of exchange at individual amide sites is then measured in the refolded protein. Competition experiments at variable reaction times or variable pH indicate the time at which each amide group is protected in the refolding process. This technique was applied to the basic pancreatic trypsin inhibitor, for which sequence-specific assignments of the amide proton NMR lines had previously been obtained. For eight individual amide protons located in the β-sheet and the C-terminal α-helix of this protein, apparent refolding rates in the range from 15s-1 to 60 s-1 were observed. These rates are on the time scale of the fast folding phase observed with optical probes.

    Notizen: In this paper we report the implementation of a finite-difference algorithm which solves the linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation for molecules of arbitrary shape and charge distribution and which includes the screening effects of electrolytes. The microcoding of the algorithm on an ST-100 array processor allows us to obtain electrostatic potential maps in and around a protein, including the effects of ionic strength, in about 30 minutes. We have applied the algorithm to a dimer of the protein Cu-Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD) and compared our results to those obtained from uniform dielectric models based on coulombic potentials. We find that both the shape of the protein-solvent boundary and the ionic strength of the solvent have a profound effect on the potentials in the solvent. For the case of SOD, the cluster of positive charge at the bottom of the active site channel produces a strongly enhanced positive potential due to the focusing of field lines in the channel - a result that cannot be obtained with any uniform dielectric model. The remainder of the protein is surrounded by a weak negative potential. The electrostatic potential of the enzyme seems designed to provide a large cross-sectional area for productive collisions. Based on the ionic strength dependence of the size of the positive potential region emanating from the active site and the repulsive negative potential barrier surrounding the protein, we are able to suggest an explanation for the ionic strength dependence of the activity of the native and chemically modified forms of the enzyme.

    Notizen: The Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase I from Escherichia coli has two enzymatic activities: DNA polymerase and 3′-5′ exonuclease. The crystal structure showed that the fragment is folded into two distinct domains. The smaller domain has a binding site for deoxynucleoside monophosphate and a divalent metal ion that is thought to identify the 3′-5′ exonuclease active site. The larger C-terminal domain contains a deep cleft that is believed to bind duplex DNA. Several lines of evidence suggested that the large domain also contains the polymerase active site. To test this hypothesis, we have cloned the DNA coding for the large domain into an expression system and purified the protein product. We find that the C-terminal domain has polymerase activity (albeit at a lower specific activity than the native Klenow fragment) but no measurable 3′-5′ exonuclease activity. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that each of the three enzymatic activities of DNA polymerase I from E. coli resides on a separate protein structural domain.

    Notizen: Four major protein sequence data collections (NBRF-PIR, PSD-Kyoto, PGtrans, and NEWAT) have been merged into a single nonredundant data bank called PseqIP. The data bank entries were automatically matched by a heuristic computer program relying on the fast computation of the number of tetrapeptides shared by two sequences. PseqIP 1.0 includes 6,068 different protein sequences for a total of 1,357,067 residues, representing most of the available sequence information to date. During the course of this work, we found about 600 occurrences course of a protein sequence recorded with a one-amino-acid variation in at least two different data banks. A flat file (ASCII computer-readable format) version of PseqIP 1.0, well-suited for exhaustive homology searches and statistical sequence analysis, is available from our laboratory.

    Notizen: The crystal structure of the Fab of the galactan-binding immunoglobulin J539 (a mouse IgA,κ) has been determined at a resolution of approximately 2.6 Å by X-ray diffraction. The starting model was that obtained from the real space search described previously (Navia, M.A., Segal, D.M., Padlan, E.A., Davies, D.R., Rao, D.N., Rudikoff, S. and Potter, M. “Crystal structure of galactan-binding mouse immunoglobulin J539 Fab at 4.5 Å resolution.” Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA, 76:4071-4074, 1979). This Fab structure has now been refined by restrained least-squares procedures to an R-value of 19% for the 11,690 unique reflections between 8.0 Å and 2.6 Å. The rms deviation from ideal bond lengths is 0.025 Å. The overall structure differs from McPC603 Fab, another mouse IgA,κ antibody, in that the elbow bend, relating the variable and constant parts of the molecule, is 145° vs. 133° for McPC603. The region of the molecule expected to be the antigen binding site contains a large cavity with two clefts leading away from it. This has been fitted with a model of an oligo-galactan.

    Notizen: The switching on of the cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) in retinal rod outer segments by activated transducin (Tα-GTP) is a key step invisual excitation. The finding that trypsin activates PDE (αβγ) by degrading its γ subunit and the reversal of this activation by γ led to the proposal that Tα-GTP activates PDE by relieving an inhibitory constraint imposed by γ (Hurley and Stryer: J. Biol. Chem. 257:11094-11099, 1982). We report here studies showing that the addition of γ subunit also reverses the activation of PDE by Tα-GTP-γS. A procedure for preparing γ in high yield (50-80%) is presented. Analyses of SDS polyacrylamide gel slices confirmed that inhibitorya activity resides in the γ subunit. Nanomolar γ blocks the activation of PDE by micromolar Tα-GTPγS. The degree of activation of PDE depends reciprocally on the concentrations of γ and Tα-GTPγS. γ remains bound to the disk membrane during the activation of PDE by transducin. The binding of γ to the αβ subunits of native PDE is very tight; the dissociation constant is less than 10 pM, indicating that fewer than 1 in 1,700 PDE molecules in rod outer segments are activated in the absence of Tα-GTP.

    Notizen: Eleven mutant forms of staphylococcal nuclease with one or more defined amino acid substitutions have been analyzed by solvent denaturation by using intrinsic fluorescence to follow the denaturation reaction. On the basis of patterns observed in the value of m-the rate of change of log Kapp (the apparent equilibrium constant between the native and denatured states) with denaturant concentration - these proteins can be grouped into two classes. For class I mutants, the value of m with guanidine hydrochloride is less than the wild-type value and is either constant or increases slightly with increasing denaturant; the value of m with urea is also less than wild type but shows a marked increase with increasing denaturant concentration, often approaching but never exceeding the wild-type value. For class II mutants, m is constant and is greater than wild type in both denaturants, with the increase being consistently larger in guanidine hydrochloride than in urea. When double or triple mutants are constructed from members of the same mutant class, the change in m is usually the sum of the changes produced by each mutation in isolation. One plausible explanation for these altered patterns of denaturation is that chain-chain or chain-solvent interactions in the denatured state have been modified - interactions which appear to involve hydrophobic groups.

    Notizen: A novel method useful for selective isolation of the C-terminal peptide from a tryptic digestion mixture of a protein has been developed by taking advantage of a unique property of anhydrotrypsin, which has a strong specific affinity for the peptides containing arginine or lysine at their C-termini. Briefly, peptides produced by tryptic digestion of a protein are fractionated by affinity chromatography on a column of immobilized anhydrotrypsin. The C-terminal peptide is recovered in a breakthrough fraction, which the remainders are adsorbed on the column (unless the protein ends in arginine or lysine). The breakthrough fraction is then subjected to reversed-phase high-perfomance liquid chromatography in order to purify the C-terminal peptide. Using this method, we have successfully isolated the C-terminal peptides from tryptic digests of the sheath protein (gp 18) and the tube protein (gp 19) of bacteriophage T4. The analytical results on these peptides, together with the information on the N-terminal structures of the original proteins and on the nucleotide sequences of genes 18 and 19, allowed us to establish the complete primary structures of the two proteins.

    Notizen: Experiments were done to test the thesis that acrylamide and similar small molecules can penetrate into proteins on a nanosecond time scale. The approach taken was to measure the pattern of fluorescence quenching exhibited by quenching molecules differing in molecular character (size, polarity, charge) when these are directed against protein tryptophans that cover the whole range of tryptophan accesibility. If quenching involves protein penetration and internal quencher migration, one expects that larger quenchers and more polar quenchers should display lesser quenching. In fact, no significant dependence on quencher character was found. For proteins that display measurable quenching, the disparate quenchers studied display very similar quenching rate constants when directed against any particular protein tryptophan. For several proteins having tryptophans known to be buried, no quenching occurs. These results are not consistent with the view that the kinds of small molecules studied can quite generally penetrate into and diffuse about within proteins at near-diffusion-limited rates. Rather the results suggest that when quenching is observed, the pathway involves encounters with tryptophans that are partially exposed at the protein surface. Available crystallographic results support this conclusion.

    Notizen: The bacteriophage T4 translational represor regA protein has been purified from an overproducing strain, and its activity has been studied in simple in vitro protein synthesis reactions. RegA protein was found to inhibit the translation of T4 genes 44, 45, and ORF45-1 in a concentration-dependent fashion. Expression of two other T4 genes which are insensitive to regA protein in vivo, genes 32 and 43, was unaffected by the presence of regA protein. Specific inhibition of synthesis of genes 44, 45, and ORF 45-1 proteins was achieved with 5-20 μM concentrations of regA protein, without the addition of any other T4 encoded proteins or cofactors. When in vitro protein synthesis was performed in two steps, uncoupling translation from transcription, regA protein had an inhibitory effect regardless of whether it was added at the initiation of transcription or only at the translation step. This indicates that regA protein functions during the translation step of protein synthesis in vitro in agreement with previous in vivo studies of regA protein.

    Notizen: The livR gene encoding the repressor for high-affinity branched-chain amino acid transport in Escherichia coli has been cloned from a library prepared from the episome F106. The inserted DNA fragment from the initial cloned plasmid, pANT1, complemented two independent, spontaneously derived, regulatory mutations. Subcloning as well as the creation of deletions with Bal31 exonuclease revealed that the entire regulatory region is contained within a 1.1-kb RsaI-SalI fragment. Expression of the pANT plasmids in E. coli minicells showed that the regulatory region encodes one detectable protein with an apparent molecular weight of 21,000. DNA sequencing revealed one open reading frame of 501 bp encoding a protein with a calculated MW of 19,155. The potential secondary structure of the regulatory protein has been predicted and it suggests that the carboxy terminus may fold into three consecutive alpha helices. These results suggests that the livR gene encodes a repressor which plays a role in the regulation of expression of the livJ and the livK transport genes.

The immobilized enzymes show a great stability toward organic solvents miscible or immiscible with water. In the presence of a low concentration of water, the immobilized enzymes catalyzed transesterification reactions as well as peptide synthesis. The synthesized peptides were stable toward the immobilized enzymes.

    Notizen: Transfection of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells with a plasmid containing the cDNA for human preprorenin has provided cell lines that secrete 15 mg of native prorenin per liter of culture medium. Tryptic activation of the prorenin occurs by selective cleavage of the Arg66-Leu67 bond (numbering as in preprorenin). The renin product, purified in a single step and in high yield by affinity chromatography, is fully stable for as long as 8 months when stored in solution at 4°C and pH 6.5. Purity of the renin was judged to be greater than 95% by gel electrophoresis, compositional and N-terminal sequence analyses, and specific enzyme activity. An important aspect of the present work is the development of a direct assay for renin which permits accurate and reproducible evaluation of enzyme units and kinetic parameters. Application of methods described herein, combined with appropriate scale-up fermentation capabilities, provides the means for generating gram quantities of human renin and its zymogen.

    Notizen: The feasibility of determining the conformation of segments of polypeptide chain up to six residues in length in globular proteins by means of systematic search through the possibles conformations has been investigated. Trial conformations are generated by using representative sets of φ, ψ, and χ angels that have been derived from an examination of the distributions of these angles in refined protein structures. A set of filters based on simple rules that protein structures obey is used to reduce the number of conformations to a manageable total. The most important filters are the maintenance of chain integrity and the avoidance of tooshort van der Waals contacts with the rest of the protein and with other portions of the segment under construction. The procedure is intended to be used with approximate models so that allowance is made throughout for errors in the rest of the structure. All possible main chains are first constructed and then all possible side-chain conformations are built onto each of these. The electrostatic energy, including a solvent screening term, and the exposed hyrophobic area are evaluated for each accepted conformation. The method has been tested on two segments of chain in the trypsin like enzyme from Streptomyces griseus. It is found that there is a wide spread of energies among the accepted conformations, and the lowest energy ones have satisfactorily small root mean square deviations from the X-ray structure.

    Notizen: Rate equilibrium dialysis was used to measure the binding of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (DPG) to human oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin AO over the range pH 5-9, at 21.5°C. This approach yielded an accurate, precise, and self-consistent set of model-independent association constants. These data were successfully fitted to a thermodynamic model which is fuctionally similar to a Hill equation. The isotherms generated by this fitting procedure appear to intersect at low pH and converge at high pH. This apparent convergence at high pH is consistent with results obtained by oxygen equilibria studies performed under conditions of saturating DPG. These calculated isotherms were used to determine the enhancement of the Bohr effect as a function of pH. These results are consistent with data obtained by pH stat measurements by other investigators.This paper presents the first in a series of studies that will provide a systematic characterization of the interaction between hemoglobin and DPG.

    Notizen: We have investigated the restoration of electron micrographs exhibiting blurring due to drift and rotation. Blurring due to drift arises in micrographs taken of a specimen which is moving relative to the image plane. A related problem is that of rotational blurring which arises in micrographs of thin sections of helical particles viewed in cross section. The twist of the particle within the finite thickness of the section causes the image to appear rotationally blurred about the helical axis.Restoration algorithms were evaluated by applying them to the restoration of blurred model images degraded by additive Gaussian noise. Model images were also used to investigate how an incorrect estimate of the point spread function function describing the blur would effect the restoration. Images were, if necessary, geometrically transformed to a space in which the point spread function of the blur can be considered as linear and space invariant as, under these conditions, the restoration algorithms are greatly simplified. In the case of the rotationally blurred images this procedur was accomplished by transforming the image to polar coordinates.The restoration techniques were successfully applied to blurred micrographs of bacteriophage T4 and crystals of catalase. The quality of the restoration was judged by comparisons of the restored images to undegraded images. Application to micrographs of rotationally blurred cross sections of helical macrofibers of sickle hemoglobin resulted in a reduction in the amount of rotational blurring.

    Notizen: The GTP-binding subunit of transducin (Tα) activates the cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) of bovine retinal rods by relieving the constraint imposed by the inhibitory subunit PDEγ. We have isolated and characterized the complex Tα.GTPγS-PDEγ formed when Tα is activated by the nonhydrolyzable analog GTPγS. Sedimentation and light-scattering techniques demonstrate that, in contrast to free Tγ.GTPγS, which is soluble, the Tα.GTPγS-PDEγ complex, as well as Tα.GTP-PDEγ, is membrane bound at cytosolic ionic strength. It is eluted from the membrane at low ionic strength as a monomeric and 1:1 stoichiometric complex. The relative affinities of PDEγ for PDEαβ and for Tα.GTP are discussed.

    Notizen: The effects of trifluoroethanol (TFE) on the stability of the α-helix formed by ribonuclease S-peptide, residues 1-19 of ribonuclease A, were studied by measuring circular dichroism as a function of TFE concentration, pH, and temperature. The S-peptide forms an unusually stable α-helix, which is known to be stabilized by TFE. The magnitude of the effect of charged groups on the peptide, manifested by the change in α-helix stability as a function of pH, was not altered significantly by either TFE concentration or temperature, indicating that the lower dielectric constant of TFE is not important in the stabilization of this α-helix. This suggests that the α-helix might be stabilized by many interactions in addition to the effects of charges. The titration curve of circular dichroism vs. TFE concentration appears to be cooperative at 0°C, but becomes progressively less cooperative at temperatures between 25 and 75°C. The properties of the TFE stabilization indicate that TFE might be a useful probe with which to measure the stability of marginally stable peptides and small proteins.

    Notizen: Microcin B17 is a low-molecular-weight protein that inhibits DNA replication in a number of enteric bacteria. It is produced by bacterial strains which harbor a 70-kilobase plasmid called pMccB17. Four plasmid genes (named mcbABCD) are required for its production. The product of the mcbA gene was identified by labelling minicells. The mcbA gene product was slightly larger when a mutation in any of the other three production genes was present. This indicates that these genes are involved in processing the primary mcbA product to yield the active molecule. The mcbA gene product predicted from the nucleotide sequence has 69 amino acids including 28 glycine residues. Microcin B17 was extracted from the cells by boiling in 100 mM acetic acid, 1 mM EDTA, and purified to homogeneity in a single step by high-performance liquid chromatography through a C18 column. The N-terminal amino acid sequence and amino acid composition demonstrated that mcbA is the structural gene for microcin B17. The active molecule is a processed product lacking the first 26 N-terminal residues. The 43 remaining residues include 26 glycines. While microcin B17 is an exported protein, the cleaved N-terminal peptide does not have the characteristic properties of a “signal sequence,” which suggests that it is secreted by a mechanism different from that used by most secreted proteins of E. coli.

    Notizen: A second slow-cycling retinylidene protein, in addition to slow-cycling (sensory) rhodopsin (SR), can be bleached with hydroxylamine and regenerated with all-trans retinal in photosensory signaling Halobacterium halobium membranes. Flash photolysis shows this protein undergoes a photochemical reaction cycle characterized by photoconversion of its ground state (λmax 480 nm) to a species with λmax ≤ 360 nm, which thermally regenerates the 480-nm species with a t½ of 260 msec at 25°C, under conditions in which SR photocycles at 650 msec in the same membranes. Mutants characterized with respect to their phototaxis behavior are identified which contain SR and the 480-nm pigment, the latter ranging from undetectable to a concentration equal to that of SR. Receptor mutants lacking all phototaxis sensitivity lack both of the photochemically reactive proteins. The mutant properties contribute to an accumulation of behavioral and spectroscopic evidence that the 480-nm pigment is a second sensory photoreceptor in H. halobium. NaDodSO4-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of [3H]retinal-labeled membrane proteins from the mutants indicates SR and the 480-nm pigment contain distinct chromophoric polypeptides differing in their migration rates. The data implicate polypeptides of 25,000 Mr and 23,000 Mr as retinal-binding polypeptides of SR and the 480-nm protein, respectively.

    Notizen: Cleavage of colicin E1 molecules with a variety of proteases or with cyanogen bromide (CNBr) generates COOH-terminal fragments which have channel-forming activity similar to that of intact colicin in planar lipid bilayer membranes. The smallest channel-forming fragment obtained by CNBr cleavage of the wild-type molecule consists of the C-terminal 152 amino acids. By the use of oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis, we have made nine mutants along this 152 amino acid peptide, in which an amino acid was replaced by methionine in order to create a new CNBr cleavage site. The smallest of the CNBr-cleaved C-terminal fragments with channel-forming activity, in planar bilayer membranes, was generated by cleavage at new Met position 428 and has 94 amino acids, whereas a 75 amino acid peptide produced by cleavage of a new Met at position 447 did not have channel activity. The NH2-terminus of the channel-forming domain of colicin E1 appears therfore to lie between residues 428 and 447. Since, however, the last six C-terminal residues of the colicin can be removed without changing activity, the number of amino acids necessary to form the channel is 88 or less. In addition, the unique Cys residue in colicin E1 was replaced by Gly, and nine mutants were then made with Cys placed at sequential locations along the peptide for eventual use as sulfhydryl attachment sites to determine the local environment of the replaced amino acid. In the course of making 21 mutants, eight charged residues have been replaced by uncharged Met or Cys without changing the biological activity of the intact molecule.It has been proposed previously that the conformation of the colicin E1 channel is a barrel formed from five or six α-helices, each having 20 amino acids spanning the membrane and two to four residues making the turn at the boundary of the membrane. Our finding that 88 amino acids can make an active channel, combined with recently reported stoichiometric evidence that the channel is a monomer excludes this model and adds significant constraints which can be used in building a molecular model of the channel.

    Notizen: This report describes the use of fluorescence energy transfer between an intrinsic energy donor (tryptophan 177) and two chemically added acceptors to study intermediates in the folding of the β2 subunit of E. coli tryptophan-synthase. Two early folding steps are thus identified and characterized. One is very rapid (its rate constant at 12°C is 0.02 sec-1) and corresponds to the folding of the N-terminal domain into a structure whose overall features approximate well those of the native domain. The second step is somewhat slower (its rate constant at 12°C is 0.008 sec-1) and involves a conformational rearrangement of the N-terminal domain brought about by the interactions between the N-and C-terminal domains within a monomeric β chain. This brings to five the number of intermediates which have been identified and ordered on the folding pathway of the dimeric β2 subunit.

    Notizen: A procedure (coupled perturbation procedure, CPP) is introduced as a specific method for calculating the detailed three-dimensional structure of a protein molecule which has a nummber of amino-acid substitutions relative to some previously determined “parent” protein structure. The accuracy of the procedure is tested by calculating the conformation of a region of the human immunoglobulin fragment Fab Kol based on the analogous region of the human immunoglobulin fragment Fab New. Both structures have previously been determined crystallographically. The calculated model is accurate to the extent that both of the sequence differences in the region are modeled correctly and that conformational changes in a number of nearby residues are correctly identified. CPP is shown to give better results than other commonly used modeling procedures when applied to the same problem.

    Notizen: IgG Gar, a human myeloma protein that binds riboflavin with a high affinity, was used to derive variable region fragments from the heavy chain and the light chain. Riboflavin binding ability of the active site generated by V(H) and light chain and the active site generated by V(H) and V(L) was compared to riboflavin binding by the F(ab) fragment. The riboflavin binding ability of the F(ab) fragment is the same as the intact molecule, while the binding ability of the active site formed by V(H) and light chain is lowered by two to three orders of magnitude, indicating that the removal of C(H1) domain decreases the interaction between riboflavin and the amino acids that is important in tight binding of riboflavin. Removal of the third hypervariable region and the constant region domain from the light chain further lowers the binding constant by one order of magnitude. The results indicate that the V(H) and V(L) segments of IgG Gar can reconstitute a riboflavin binding site. The decrease in affinity probably reflects a decrease in the rigidity with which the hypervariable loops are held together to place the contact amino acid residues in optimal contact with the hapten.

    Notizen: Monoclonal antibodies against human apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) were generated by the hybridoma technique. Clone G-10 was selected on the basis of its highest titer. The affinity of this antibody toward a series of synthetic peptides differing in length, amino acid composition, and amphiphilicity was tested by using both the indirect and the competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent techniques (ELISA). From these measurements we calculated dissociation constants of the complexes of the antibody with apoA-I bound to the surface of the microtiter plate, apoA-I in solution, and any of the several peptides in solution. The dissociation constant (Kd) of the immobilized apoA-I/anti-apoA-I-complex, Kd = 2 × 10-9 M, was significantly lower than that of the complex resulting from the interaction between anti-apoA-I and either apoA-I in solution or any of the several amphiphilic helical peptides in solution. Peptides devoid of amphiphilic secondary structure were inert. These data are consistent with the proposal that monoclonal G-10 recognizes in antigenic peptides an α-helical secondary structure of defined hydrophilic-lipophilic balance and comparatively less the specific amino acid side chains. We propose that the highest contribution to the free energy of binding (8 Kcal/mole) is derived from the docking of the helix to the antibody. It follows that in probing the specificity of a monoclonal antibody the conformation and the physical environment of the interacting antigen must be taken into account.

    Notizen: We have isolated 64 different missense mutations at 36 out of 53 residue positions in the Arc repressor of bacteriophage P22. Many of the mutant proteins with substitutions in the C-terminal 40 residues of Arc have reduced intracellular levels and probably have altered structures or stabilities. Mutations in the N-terminal ten residues of Arc cause large decreases in operator DNA binding affinity without affecting the ability of Arc to fold into a stable three-dimensional structure. We argue that these N-terminal residues are important for operator recognition but that they are not part of a conventional helix-turn-helix DNA binding structure. These results suggest that Arc may use a new mechanism for sequence specific DNA binding.

    Notizen: The reaction center is a pigmentprotein complex that mediates the initial photochemical steps of photosynthesis. The amino-terminai sequences of the L, M, and H subunits and the nucleotide and derived amino acid sequences of the L and M structural genes from Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides have previously been determined. We report here the sequence of the H subunit, completing the primary structure determination of the reaction center from R. sphaeroides. The nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding the H subunit was determined by the dideoxy method after subcloning fragments into single-stranded M13 phage vectors. This information was used to derive the amino acid sequence of the corresponding polypeptide. The termini of the primary structure of the H subunit were established by means of the amino and carboxy terminal sequences of the polypeptide. The data showed that hte H subunit is composed of 260 residues, corresponding to a molecular weight of 28,003. A molecular weight of 100,858 for the reaction center was calculated from the primary structures of the subunits and the cofactors. Examination of the genes encoding the reaction center shows that the codon usage is strongly bviased towards codons ending in G and C. Hydropathy analysis of the H subunit sequence reveals one stretch opf hydrophobic residues near the amino terminus; the L and M subunits contain five such stretches. From a comparison of the sequences of homologous proteins found in bacterial reaction centers and photosystem II of plants, an evolutionary tree was contructed. The analysis of evolutionary relationships showed that the L and M subunits of reaction centers and D1 and D2 proteins of photosystem II are descended from a common ancestor, and that the rate of change in these proteins was much higher in the first billion years after the divergence of the reaction center and photosystem II than in the subsequent billion years represented by the divergence of the species containing these proteins.

    Notizen: Cellulomonas fimi produces an endoglucanase and an exoglucanase which bind strongly to cellulose. Each enzyme contains three distinct regions: a short sequence of about 20 amino acids containing only proline and threonine (the ProThr box); an irregular region, rich in hydroxyamino acids, of low charge density, and which is predicted to have little secondary structure; and an ordered region of higher charge density which contains a potential active site, and which is predicted to have secondary structure; and an ordered region of higher charge density which contains a potential active site, and which is predicted to have secondary structure. The Pro-Thr box is conserved almost perfectly in the two enzymes. The irregular regions are 50% conserved, and the conserved sequences include four Asn-Xaa-Ser/Thr sites. The ordered regions appear not to be conserved, but the potential active sites both have the sequence Glu-Xaa7-Asn-Xaa6-Thr; they occur at widely separated sites in the two regions. The order of the regions is reversed in the two enzymes: irregular-Pro-Thr box-ordered in the endoglucanase; ordered-Pro-Thr box irregular in the exoglucanase. The genes for the two enzymes appear to have arisen by shuffling of two conserved sequences and either one or two other sequences.

    Notizen: A Procedure has been developed for the isolation and identification of mutants in the bacterial serine protease subtilisin that exhibit enhanced thermal stability. The cloned subtilisin BPN'gene from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was treated with bisulfite, a chemical mutagen that deaminates cytosine to uracil in single-stranded DNA. Strains containing the cloned, mutagenized subtilisin gene which produced subtilisin with enhanced thermal stability were selected by a simple plate assay procedure which screens for esterase activity on nitrocellulose filters after preincubation at elevated temperatures. One thermostable subtilisin variant, designated 7150, has been fully characterized and found to differ from wild-type subtilisin by a single substitution of Ser for Asn at position 218. The 7150 enzyme was found to undergo thermal inactivation at onefourth the rate of the wild-type enzyme when incubated at elevated temperatures. Moreover, the midpoint in the thermally induced transition from the folded to unfolded state was found to be 2.4-3.9°C higher for 7150 as determined by differential scanning calorimetry under a variety of conditions. The refined, 1.8-Å crystal structures of the wild-type and 7150 subtilisin have been compared in detail, leading to the conclusion that slight improvements in hydrogen bond parameters in the vicinity of position 218 result in the enhanced thermal stability of 7150.

    Notizen: We describe a method for predicting the conformations of loops in proteins and its application to four of the complementarity determining regions [CDRs] in the crystallographically determined structure of MCPC603. The method is based on the generation of a large number of randomly generated conformations for the backbone of the loop being studied, followed by either minimization or molecular dynamics followed by minimization starting from these random structures. The details of the algorithm for the generation of the loops are presented in the first paper in this series (Shenkin etal.[submitted]). The results of minimization and molecular dynamics applied to these loops is presented here. For the two shortest CDRs studied (H1 and L2, which are five and seven amino acids long), minimizations and dynamics simulations which ignore interactions of the loop amino acids beyond the carbon ture closely. This suggests that these loops fold independently of sequence variation. For the third CDR (L3, which is nine amino acids), those portions of the CDR near its base which are hydrogen bonded to framework are well replicated by our procedures, but the top of the loop shows singificant conformational variability. This variability persists when side chain interactions for the MCPC603 sequence are included. For a fourth CDR (H3, which is 11 amino acids long), new low-energy backbone conformations are found; however, only those which are close to the crystal are compatible with the sequence when side chain interactions are taken into account. Results from minimuzation and dynamics on single CDRs with all other CDRs removed are presented. These allow us to explore the extent to which individual CDR conformations are determined by interactions with framework only.

    Notizen: The highly refined 1.26 Å structure (R = 0.15) of phosphate-free bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A was modeled with 13 residues having discrete multiple conformations of side chains. These residues are widely distributed over the protein surface, but only one of them, Lys 61, is involved in crystal packing interactions. The discrete conformers have no unusual torsion angles, and their interactions with the solvent and with other atoms of the protein are similar to those residues modeled with a single conformation. For three of the residues-Val 43, Asp 83, and Arg 85-two correlated conformations are found. The observed multiple conformations on the protein surfaces will be of significance in analyzing structure-function relationships and in performing protein engineering.

    Notizen: Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) encodes a ribonucleotide reductase which comprises two polypeptides with sizes of 136,000 (RR1) and 38,000 mol. wt. (RR2). We have determined the entire DNA sequence specifying HSV-1 RR1 and have identified two adjacent open reading frames in varicella-zoster virus (VZV) which have homology to HSV RR1 and RR2; the predicted sizes for the VZV RR1 and RR2 polypeptides are 87,000 and 35,000 mol. wt. respectively. Amino acid comparisons with RR1 and RR2 polypeptides from other organisms indicate that HSV-1 RR1 contains a unique N-terminal domain which is absent from other RR1 polypeptides apart from HSV-2 RR1. These N-terminal amino acid sequences are poorly conserved between HSV-1 and HSV-2 in contrast to the remainder of the protein which shows greater than 90% homology. Polypeptide structural predictions suggest that the HSV-1 N-terminal domain may be separated into two regions, namely, a β-sheet structure followed by a nonstructured area. Across the remainder of RR1 and RR2, comparisons also reveal blocks of amino acids conserved between the different ribonucleotide reductases, and these may be important for enzyme activity. From predictions on the structure of these conserved blocks, we have proposed that the location of a substrate binding site within RR1 is centered on three conserved glycine residues in a region which is predicted to adopt a β-sheet/turn/α-helical structure;this approximates to the structure for ADP nucleotide binding folds. Finally, we propose that the promoters for the HSV and Eptein-Barr virus (EBV) RR2 transcripts have evolved by separate evolutionary routes.

    Notizen: In order to characterize the zymogen of the milk-clotting enzyme from Rhizomucor miehei, we constructed a cDNA library on pBR327 in Escherichia coli. Aspartic proteinase-specific recombinants were isolated by colony hybridization to a specific oligonucleotide mixture, and the cDNA sequence corresponding to a precursor form of the enzyme was determined.The decuced amino sequence shows that this secreted fungal proteinase is synthesized as a precursor. The first 22 amino acid residues in this precursor constitute a typical signal peptide. The amino acid sequence of the following 47-amino-acid-long prosegment shows homology to the prosegments from both the extracellular and intracellular vertebrate aspartic proteinases, and to the prosegments from the yeast and Mucor pusillus aspartic proteinases as well. These observations suggest that all aspartic proteinases are synthesized with a prosegment and that this prosegment is essential for the correct folding of all the mature enzymes. The active Rhizomucor miehei enzyme consists of 361 amino acide residues with a total molecular weight of 38,701. Clusters of idendtities around the active site cleft support the assumption that these proteinasess have a common folding of their peptide chains. The disulphide bridges were localized in the fungal enzyme, and 2 N-glycosylation sites were identified.

    Notizen: Polyolefins functionalized with diethylmaleate were mixed with poly(vinylchloride) (PVC) in different compositions. Intermolecular interactions involving the carbonyl groups of the side chains of the functionalized polyolefins and methine hydrogens of PVC were investigated by means of infrared spectroscopy. The major flexibility of the ester groups attached to the backbone chains, with respect to polyesters, seems to increase the capability of such groups to interact with groups of more polar polymers, thus allowing prediction of easier miscibility, which however also depends on the starting polyolefin structure and function-alization degree.

    Notizen: Non-aqueous dispersions of poly(vinyl acetate) stabilized by a surface layer of poly(2-ethylhexyl methacrylate) (PEHMA) were prepared. We modified the recipe for particle synthesis, using as a stabilizer a copolymer of EHMA containing a small amount of either phenanthrene (Phe) or pyrene (Py) groups. These fluorescent labels permit us to assess different aspects of stabilizer chain morphology and dynamics. In the particles labeled with Phe groups, the ability of oxygen to quench Phe fluorescence is used as a monitor of O2 sorption at the stabilizer-particle interface. In these experiments, information about the location of the labels and the PEHMA polymer is obtained. In the particles labeled with Py, pyrene self-quenching and excimer formation serves as a sensor of conformational and mobility changes in the PEHMA polymer upon anchoring in the particle.

    Notizen: The phase morphology and polymer chain orientation in polyethylene-polycarbonte blends is investigated. A blend with a dispersed polyethylene phase was found to exhibit phase growth under quiescent conditions. Addition of a styrene-(ethylene/butene) block copolymer controls the phase morphology and prevents phase growth. Melt spun tapes and tubular film have been prepared from polyethylene-polycarbonate blends. Orientation of the crystallo-graphic axes of the polyethylene and the chain axis of the polycarbonate were determined by infrared dichroism. The addition of polycarbonate to polyethylene is found to decrease chain orientation at the same drawdown stress.

    Notizen: Commercial high density polyethylene and polyamide-6 (PA) resins were melt blended in the Brabender Plasticorder twin-screw extruder. The blends containing zero to 30 wt percent of polyamide-6 were examined in dynamic and steady state shear at 150, 200, and 250°C. The Theological test results are discussed in terms of morphology of the samples as observed under scanning electron microscope. Microscopy of the extrudates has shown a temperature dependent movement of the polyamide in the capillary during the extrusion and that fibrillation of the PA phase in the extensional field occurred at all temperatures.

    Notizen: Morphology and mechanical properties of (amine terminated butadiene acrylonitrile rubber/diglycidyl ether of bis-phenol-A epoxy resin) blends of different compositions, cured in wide range of temperatures, are described. Curing at low temperature promoted formation of homogeneous materials with poor fracture resistance. On the contrary, at high temperature tough heterogeneous blends were obtained. Such blends showed phase inversion above 20 percent of rubber. The volume fraction of precipitated phase, determined on SEM micrographs, was higher than the amount of added rubber. A fracture mechanism to account for this is proposed. Extensive voiding and interface damage were observed in the low temperature cured materials. Such phenomena did not contribute to the fracture energy.

    Notizen: The key to successfully implementing polymer blends in end-use applications includes an understanding of performance requirements and the physical property balance of the blend, as well as the provision of financial incentive to the fabricator, The economic gain is calculated for two cases where blends were introduced to displace another material: a blend which gives higher productivity for blown film applications and a blend which allows for increased flow and a gage reduction for an injection molding application. As the resin cost usually accounts for more than seventy percent of the final product cost, the resin or blend cost affects the economic gain (if any) from the fabricator's point of view. Therefore, successful commercial implementation of a new resin or blend depends on its relative cost and benefit to other commercially available materials.

    Notizen: In recent years there has been increasing recognition of the importance of melt elasticity in polymer processing. A new instrument has been developed that determines the elastic properties of polymers in the melt state by measuring both the stress relaxation and strain recovery characteristics as a function of applied rate of strain, temperature, and magnitude of applied strain. Data on several different polymers will be presented together with examples of the significance of melt elasticity in such processing operations as thermoforming, blow molding, and film forming. A material parameter that is very important in the processing of polymers such as polystyrene and poly(methylmethacrylate) is the transition above the glass transition, Tg, referred to as the liquid-liquid transition, TII. At this transition there is an abrupt change in the elasticity of the melt. Processing above or below this transition produces products with very different end use properties.

    Notizen: The interfacial tensions of immiscible binary blends of poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) and polybutadiene (PBD) have been determined as a function of molecular weight and temperature. The technique employed for these measurements takes advantage of recent advances in the determination and analysis of pendant fluid drop profiles. The experimental data are compared to the predictions of square gradient theories and theories based on the diffusion equation approach as developed by Helfand and co-workers. Qualitative agreement is obtained with both types of theory when the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter is taken to be comprised of two terms: a temperature independent term of entropic origin; and an enthalpic term that is inversely dependent upon the temperature.

Two linear relationships, between ion content and glass transition temperature and between pendant alkyl chain length and the Tg, are observed. An equation is presented that can be used to predict the Tg for such copolymers based on their ion contents and alkyl chain lengths.

    Notizen: Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a relatively new high temperature engineering thermoplastic. The stability of neat and fiberglass reinforced PEEK towards air, KClO4, and TiH1.65/KClO4 blend was studied by the surface sensitive technique of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and bulk technique of thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. Both of these examinations revealed no oxidation in the presence of air or KClO4 at temperatures of 60 or 120°C. In addition, no reduction of PEEK was observed in the presence of a reducing agent such as TiH1.65. The TG results also showed no air oxidation between 120 and 500°C.

    Notizen: The miscibility of the polycarbonate of bisphenol A with the polyhydroxyether of bisphenol A was analyzed using differential scanning calorimetry and the, results are compared with the torque data obtained using a Brabender Plasticorder. The possibility of interchange reactions was analyzed by means of the observation of the melt-viscosity variation versus processing time in the mixer-bowl. These reactions form graft-copolymers that develop into crosslinked copolymers at higher residence times. It was also shown that the speed of these reactions depends on the processing temperature. The variation produced on the glass-transition temperature because of branching was also analyzed.

    Notizen: A general-purpose finite element program has been used to simulate the flow of nonshear-thinning, highly elastic polymer solutions (Boger fluids). In particular, the creeping flow through an abrupt 4:1 circular and planar contraction is studied, as well as the flow at the exit of a capillary die for the determination of extrudate swell. Experimentally measured normal stress and viscosity data are included in a simple rheological model, based on the viscometric simplification of the CEF constitutive equation. Vortex size and intensity in the die entry and extrudate swell at the die exit increase rapidly, with elasticity level, in general agreement with experimental findings. It is shown that despite the limitations of the model, the viscometric approximation can be used to study the effect of normal stresses in cases where a main flow direction can unambiguously be defined. In die exit Flows, it can also provide an upper limit for the determination of extrudate swell, while Tanner's theory of elastic recovery provides the lower limit.

    Notizen: The transport property of chloroform in undeformed and stress-whitened polypropylenes was studied. The rate of penetration of liquid chloroform in whitened samples prepared by uniaxial stretching was slower than that of the undeformed material. In the whitened region, the process appeared to be Fickian diffusion, while in the undeformed material, it was a combination of Fickian and Case-II. The diffusivity (at 50°C) in the whitened region increased about 8 times as the strain rate of stretching decreased from 0.67 to 0.033/min. The temperature dependence of diffusivity (ε = 0.67/min) showed an activation energy of 10.16 Kcal/mole. The whitening effect was greatly reduced as chloroform was absorbed; the final residual whitening after desorption increased with the rate of stretching as determined by transmission densitometry. For the undeformed polypropylene, Case-II type of matrix relaxation contributed significantly to the total flux. The transport process was relaxation controlled at the surface: it gradually changed to Fickian diffusion behavior toward the middle plane. The flux contribution of relaxation across the thickness increased with the sorption time, and that of diffusion decreased. These observations seem to indicate that cold drawing impeded the deformation by swelling stress from occurring at the penetration front.

    Notizen: In the application of plastic pipes for fluid transport and for the protection of underground electrical cables, it is desirable to improve mechanical properties, particularly in the hoop direction. The use of orientable reinforcing particles such as chopped glass fibers could make possible such an improvement if the orientation of the fibers could be controlled. While conventional pipe extrusion dies tend to promote axial fiber orientation, the use of an expanding channel die has been proposed to produce a preferential hoop orientation of fibers. In this paper, a theoretical model of the flow of a fiber suspension through an expanding channel die that predicts the fiber orientation distribution at the die exit is described. The effects of Theological properties and die geometry on the final fiber orientation distribution are predicted. The results of an experimental study of fiber orientation in pipe extruded using an expanding channel die are shown to be in agreement with the theoretical predictions.

    Notizen: The effect of pressure on the densification of amorphous polymers in the Injection-molding process is examined. Density distributions in molded polystyrene slabs were measured for several well-defined molding histories. In all cases the density of the molded part was spatially inhomogeneous, and its distribution in the slab was closely related to the pressure and temperature histories that prevailed in the molding cavity during the process cycle. The density profile in the gapwise direction followed a characteristic “parabolic” pattern with a minimum at the midplane of the slab. A simple phenomenological model, based on the pressure-induced densification effect, was constructed to explain the observed density profiles, and close agreement with experimental data was found. Annealing of the molded article at a high temperature (〈Tg) caused the density to decrease overall and become more uniform across the part. This is generally consistent with volume-recovery data for the densified material, which were generated independently in a controlled pressure-densification experiment.

    Notizen: A systematic design of the classical “coat hanger” die is proposed and tested experimentally. The objectives of the design are 1. distribution of the polymer over the width of the die before it reaches the final lip section for thickness adjustment, 2. invariance of distribution to flow rate, 3. invariance to changes in polymer viscosity, and 4. uniform average residence time. The die design is based on a flow model which assumes power-law viscosity, steady shear flow In each cross-section, uniform temperature, and separation of the flows into a manifold component and a component in a slit section of uniform height. The design corrects for an oversimplification of the pressure gradient that was applied in previous studies; and it differs from previous designs by suggesting a rectangular cross-section for the manifold. Applications to side-fed dies for extrusion blow molding and to a sheet extrusion die achieved uniform distribution and did not require any additional flow corrections (such as choker bars or flexible lips). With the new design, the lip region of the die can freely be used for thickness control, fine tuning, or further shaping of the extrudate.

    Notizen: The rheological behavior of sulfonated polyisobutylene based elastomeric ionomers has been studied. The effects of molecular architecture, type of cation, and addition of excess neutralization agent were investigated. The effect of temperature was studied to a limited extent. In a specific case, the influence of an ionic plasticizer, zinc stearate was also examined. It was found that in these telechelic ionomers where the ionic groups are located exclusively at the chain ends, significant Ionic interactions may persist even at 180°C. The zinc-neutralized ionomers had the lowest viscosity as compared to the corresponding potassium- or calcium-neutralized ionomers. The covalent character of zinc is believed responsible for this behavior. Other factors being constant, the triarm based ionomers are more viscous than the monofunctional ionomers. A mixture of monofunctional ionomers with the triarm, species is a model for dangling chain ends, and results in a slight lowering of the viscosity under the conditions studied. Zinc stearate acts as an ionic plasticizer. Upon the addition of 15 percent by weight of zinc-stearate to the ionomer, the low shear rate viscosity drops by several orders of magnitude and renders the ionomer thermally processable at moderate temperatures.

    Notizen: An experimental investigation was conducted into elucidating the mechanism of foam devolatilization. For the investigation, we have constructed two separate apparatuses of Plexiglas - one simulating the partially filled flow channel in a single-screw devolatilizer, and the other simulating the partially filled, closed-chamber (often referred to as the “C-chamber),” in a twin-screw devolatilizer. The test fluids employed were aqueous solutions of polyacrylamide having various concentrations. During the preparation of the test fluids, we controlled the amount of air entrapped in the liquid phase by varying the level of vacuum applied. The entrapped air stayed as fine gas bubbles dispersed in the polymer solution, and mixtures of the polymer solution and air bubbles were subjected to devolatilization experiments. In the use of a single-screw devolatilizer, we have observed that: 1. The streamlines show circulatory flow patterns forming a singular point at a position slightly below the free surface, where small gas bubbles are trapped initially and become stationary, and 2. The small gas bubbles trapped at the stationary position coalesce later to form large gas bubbles, which then move slowly toward the free surface and are removed under vacuum from the system. In the use of twin-screw devolatilizers, we have found that the degree of fill, the rotational direction of the screws, and the degree of intermeshing, (i. e., partially or fully intermeshing) greatly influence the amount of free surface available for the removal of volatiles, as well as the flow patterns in the liquid pool, and thus the devolatilization efficiency.

    Notizen: Drawing of a semicrystalline polymer causes a molecular transformation from a spherulitic-to-fibrillar morphology. Shrinkage, which is a characteristic property of polymeric fibers, reverses, to a large extent, the extension that takes place during the deformational process of drawing. This paper focuses on the shrinkage behavior of various drawn semicrystalline polymers and the results are used as further evidence for the feasibility of a phase-transition model whose mechanism can be generally termed “strain-induced recrystallization.”

    Notizen: A theoretical study of the one-directional coextrusion flow of two molten polymers between parallel plates has been carried out using a non-isothermal power-law model. A numerical method has been used to solve simultaneously the momentum and energy balance equations, in order to obtain the evolutions of the interface position, the pressure gradient, and the temperature profiles all along the flow. The theoretical results are in good agreement with experimental values measured on an industrial coextrusion line.

    Notizen: The National Center for Small-Angle Scattering Research (NCSASR) is a user dedicated national facility at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. It is sponsored by the National Science Foundation under an interagency agreement with the Department of Energy. The facilities of the Center include the NSF funded. 30-m small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) instrument at the High Flux Isotope Reactor, as well as part-time use of four other small-angle x-ray and SANS instruments. One of the most active areas of SANS research has been polymer science and over half the proposals received by the Center have been in this area. Approximately 20 percent of the beam time has been allocated to users in the chemical industry for the study of polymer structure, and this paper reviews some highlights of this work in the areas of chain configuration in bulk polymers and solutions, the structure of blends and networks and investigations of core-shell latexes. In addition some of the first time-dependent experiments performed on the 30-m facility are described.

    Notizen: A model describing the expansion of a polyurethane (PU) foam in a closed mold is developed. An energy balance is stated, together with constitutive equations for the vaporization rate of the foaming agent and the polymerization kinetics. A numerical solution is obtained for an experimentally-characterized PU formulation. It is shown that in order to avoid premature gelling or undesirable density distributions, the wall temperature must be close to the initial one. The relative fraction of skin in the foam may be increased by decreasing the part thickness or by adding less catalyst or more blowing agent to the formulation. Factors affecting cream, rise, and process times are discussed.

    Notizen: The incremental response ΔG(t) obtained by superposing a deformation, Δγ, on a large deformation, γ1, has been determined in step shear experiments for a polyisobutylene solution and for a poly(methylmethacrylate) glass in torsion. For both systems ΔG(t) at γ1 was found to be smaller than the linear viscoelastic modulus, G(t), at zero prestrain. ΔG(t) was found to increase with increasing time, te, after imposition of the large deformation. It was also observed that the “apparent relaxation spectrum” associated with ΔG(t) narrows and shifts to shorter times when compared to the spectrum associated with the linear viscoelastic modulus, ΔG(t). The results for the solution art-well described by the nonlinear constitutive equation of the BKZ elastic fluid theory. It is found that ΔG(t) for the glass falls between the behavior predicted by the BKZ theory and the linear viscoelastic behavior.

    Notizen: The extent of molecular demixing of poly[cross-(ethyl acrylate)]-inter-poly[cross-(methyl methacrylate)] interpenetrating polymer networks (PEA/PMMA IPNs), of mid-range composition was investigated by decrosslinking and/or annealing using dynamic mechanical spectroscopy. A single broad transition characteristic of extensive but incomplete molecular mixing was observed for the PEA/PMMA IPN. The presence of crosslinking in both phases of an IPN enhances the mutual miscibility of the polymers. Through the use of a labile crosslinker, acrylic acid anhydride (AAA), polymer networks may be decross-linked, allowing the chains to separate and form two distinct phases. Annealing further sharpens the transitions, and phase separation becomes most pronounced when decrosslinking is followed by annealing.

    Notizen: An extensive experimental study of the effect of processing and resin variables on the light transmission of polypropylene tubular blown film is reported. The resin variables investigated include melt flow rate (average molecular weight), molecular weight distribution, and the addition of a nucleating agent. Processing variables studied include blow-up and draw down ratios, and frost line height (cooling rate). Increasing the draw down and blowup ratios and decreasing the frost line height generally lead to increased light transmission. Decreasing the resin melt flow rate, narrowing the molecular weight distribution, and the addition of a nucleating agent also improve light transmission. The overall light transmission properties of the films are dominated by their surface roughness characteristics, while the internal morphology of the films plays a secondary role. The changes in light transmission of the films in response to changes in processing or resin variables were traced to their effect on the surface texture and internal morphology.

    Notizen: The use of the J method to characterize fracture is described, and it is noted that smaller specimens may be used to obtain plane strain values than in conventional linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) tests. Various methods of computing J are described, and the extrapolations necessary to define crack initiation are discussed. The various schemes and size criteria are then explored for a polypropylene copolymer, and it is found that the recommended ASTM procedure using energy works well. The method is then used to characterize several toughened polymers, and some discussion of the slope of the resistance curve is given.

    Notizen: The generally accepted kinetic mechanism for free radical copolymerization was simplified by various assumptions and restrictions to give several realistic and easily evaluated models for the simulation of industrial molding. Six assumptions, including conversion-dependent rate coefficients and constant comonomer concentration ratios, were used to obtain a simplified model. Special cases of this simplified model were obtained by the following additional constraints: (1) Restriction C, consecutive inhibition and radical generation reactions; (2) Restriction I, constant initiator decomposition rate; (3) Restriction Z, zero termination rate for free radicals; and (4) Restriction K or P, all rate coefficients independent of conversion or only polymerization rate coefficient dependent on conversion. For various combinations of these restrictions, the time and concentration variables in the simplified model are separated and solved; the separate solutions are then combined in various ways to give models capable of predicting a wide variety of behavior. Many of these models have analytical solutions that greatly facilitate the evaluation of rate constants. Models based on restrictions KCI, PCI, and PCZ are shown to give good agreement with isothermal DSC data plotted as reaction rate versus time and, in a more sensitive test, as reaction rate divided by monomer concentration versus fractional conversion. Because of their predictive ability and ease of evaluating constants. Models PCI and PCZ are recommended for simulating industrial processing; they are particularly well suited for simulating compression molding of sheet molding compound.

    Notizen: The strength and durability in wet environment of aluminum/epoxy/aluminum joints are investigated as a function of structural changes of γ aminopropyltriethoxy silane (γ-APS) primer at the interface. Both dry and wet strengths exhibit strong dependencies on both the thickness and the extent of drying of γ-APS prior to joint formation. Generally, dry strength decreases with increasing thickness of γ-APS primer, and increases with dehydration of γ-APS at any given thickness. Strength retention of the joints after exposure to water at 55°C also improves dramatically when the adsorbed γ-APS is extensively dried. These results are analogous to earlier observations with α-Al2O3/polyethylene joint system. In aluminum joints, porous oxide substrate facilitates the mechanical interlocking mechanism, and its interplay with both the thickness and the extent of cure of γ-APS is analyzed by characterizing the fractured surfaces using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA).

    Notizen: The silicone elastomer RTV-142 is often used as a particle-getter material inside electronics packages. The adhesion mechanism that forms the bond between the particle and the cured adhesive has been investigated. One expects, theoretically, that polymer chains exhibit a temperature-dependent mobility. This is consistent with the hypothesis that the flow of polymer chain segments around asperities on the foreign particles causes adhesion. Calculations of the surface energy of an idealized polymer system are presented which support the concept of a free-energetically driven flow of chain segments into pores and around asperities. Polymer surface-chain mobility is investigated experimentally by the scanning electron microscope analysis of a fractured, cut, and particle-decorated surface. Surface appearance changes were noted as a function of temperature. Scanning electron micrographs indicate that polymer chain movement is temperature dependent. Such findings support the proposed adhesion mechanism.

    Notizen: The electrical conductivity and the dissipation factor of silicone rubber vulcanized by the condensation reaction of α,ω-dihydroxypolysiloxane with ethoxysilane, using dibutyltin dilaurate as a catalyst, were studied. Rubber specimens, with different amounts of catalyst, were prepared using various vulcanization times and then heat treated in dry or wet atmospheres containing oxygen and nitrogen. The electrical properties of these specimens were measured at 20 to 200°C in dry air. The amounts of residual catalysts and unreacted ethoxy groups were analyzed by colorimetric and gas chromatographic methods. Factors influencing the specimen electrical properties were discussed in terms of preparation conditions and amount of residual compounds.

    Notizen: An approximation method is proposed to predict the Mow rate-pressure drop relation for isothermal laminar flow of any time-independent fluid in wire coating extrusion. A geometric parameter method proposed earlier is used in predict the pressure-driven flow in the annulus. The method is demonstrated for Newtonian, power law, and Ellis fluids. The accuracy of the method is shown by comparing the predictions with the theoretical and experimental results of Han and Rao. An expression for wire coating thickness is also given.

    Notizen: The properties of poly(vinyl chlorlde)/ehlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) (61.6 percent C1) blends, prepared by melt and solution blending, were measured by various tests. Based on the chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) (CPVC) composition, percent chlorine, and mole percent CC12 groups, these blends were expected to show intermediate properties between miscible and immiscible systems. Indicative of miscible behavior were the single glass transition temperatures over the entire composition range for both melt and solution blended mixtures. A single phase was also indicated by transmission electron microscopy. However, the yield stress showed a minimum value less than either of the pure components in the 50 to 75 percent CPVC range, which is characteristic of two-phased systems. Specific volume, glass transition temperature, and heat distortion temperature were linear with binary composition. The storage modulus showed a small maximum, suggesting a weak interaction between the two miscible polymers. Heats of melting for the residual PVC crystallinity were also less than expected from linear additivity. At 160°C and 210°C, the logarithm of the complex viscosity was essentially linear with volume fraction of CPVC, except for a very slight decrease in the 50 to 75 percent CPVC range, which may have been a result of lower crystallinity. At 140°C, the complex viscosity of the CPVC was less than that of PVC owing to the higher crystallinity of the latter. The viscosities were similar at 160°C, but at 210°C, where most of the crystallites had melted, the complex viscosity of the CPVC was higher because of its higher glass transition temperature.

    Notizen: Twin-screw extruders are used very effectively, when partially filled, for mixing and surface renewal of high-viscosity fluids. The rate of energy input, often sufficiently high to be a major design consideration, determines the drive power, the heat input to the fluid, and the cooling requirements. Operating limitations may be fixed by thermal degradation of the material being processed. A simple model for the rate of energy dissipation in twin-screw extruders predicts that the power input is proportional to the square of the screw speed. Measurements were made of shaft torque and screw speed for polyisobutylene passing through a large twin-screw extruder having co-rotating shafts. The experimental procedure avoids the problems of changes in holdup and temperature that accompany changes in screw speed under steady state conditions. The power input was found to be proportional to the screw speed raised to the exponent 1.90. This result was attributed to slightly pseudoplastic behavior of the fluid in the radial clearances.

    Notizen: This review aims to encompass various situations where optical microscopy - particularly observation and measurement of birefringence - can be used to deduce the nature of intermolecular correlations in polymers. The necessary background dealing with light propagation in anisotropic media is summarized in practical terms. The review is especially concerned with illustrating how unjustified assumptions and ambiguous terminology can cause erroneous interpretation of results. Many references cited are themselves reviews or even textbooks; they afford detailed access to the wide and diffuse literature that full coverage of this subject demands, but would constitute an unwieldly bibliography if listed as individual publications.

    Notizen: A realistic simulation of the injection molding process should be capable of describing moldability parameters, such as pressure drop in the delivery system and cavity and melt-front progression during cavity filling, as well as predicting the characteristics of the final product, such as residual stresses and crystallinity distributions. After a brief review of the existing models for the mathematical modeling of the injection molding process, a new model, that meets the above requirements, is proposed.

    Notizen: Set of procedures employing melt viscoelasticity functions for selecting components and composition of the binary polyblends and estimating minor phase domain size is introduced and illustrated with examples. The procedures intended for Computer Aided Manufacture of the polyblends (CAMOBLE) are based on shear stress dependent viscoelasticity ratios, and the selection of the composition exploits stress dependent synergism of the viscoelasticity functions. Also used is auxilary procedure for composition selection is based on verified blending laws accounting for interaction and shear effects. Evaluation of the performance characteristics (“mechanical properties”) is illustrated with a modified Kerner model.

    Notizen: The dynamic responses of a 2-1/2 inch single screw plasticating extruder and extrusion line were investigated. Step changes in screw speed, take-up speed, back pressure, and processing materials were used to determine the transient responses of barrel pressures, die pressure, melt temperature, and extrudate thickness. Dynamic responses of the entire extrusion line can be explained by the flow mechanism of the extruder and the logical properties of the polymer used. A capillary rheometer was also used to determine if it could simulate pressure responses in the extruder for screw speed changes. Results showed that capillary rheometer was helpful in estimating the short term pressure responses in the die.

    Notizen: The effect of free radical desorption is studied by using a mathematical model of particle size distribution in continuous emulsion polymerization. By comparing the theoretical prediction with experimental data, the value of Do for the vinyl acetate (VAc) system is best chosen as 0.19 × 10-7 cm2/h. The effect of radical desorption as well as mean residence time on the absolute particle size distribution, total concentration of polymer particles, conversion, and average number of radicals per polymer particle are analyzed by the model proposed.

    Notizen: Polystyrene particles were coated by electroless deposition of copper, nickel or copper and nickel. The metal-coated polystyrene particles were molded at high temperature and pressure into plaques, in which the metallic shell continuity was preserved and a continuous conducting metal network was formed. Very high conductivities at low metal concentrations (less than 1 percent v/v) are obtained by this procedure. The resistivity, dielectric constant, and dissipation factor of these metal containing composites are presented as functions of the metal concentration, frequency, and temperature. The metal containing composites exhibit reasonable flexural properties.

    Notizen: In response to difficulties encountered in measuring and reproducing the flow properties of Boger fluids (dilute solutions of polyarcylamide in corn syrup), Choplin, et al. proposed it particular variety of lubricant (Emkarox) and also solutions of polyacrylamide (Pusher 700) in mixtures of glycerine and water as better model fluids for molten polymers than the original Boger fluid. In response to this work it is argued that the model fluid systems proposed by Choplin, et al., although interesting in concept, have insufficient elasticity and hence are of limited potential for use in investigative work in polymer fluid mechanics. Of all the highly elastic constant viscosity fluids available, the polyisobutylene-polybutene system is the most attractive. Both the properties of this organic Boger fluid and the original Boger fluid, are entirely consistent with simple fluid theory.
