[physiological role of vegetable oils during penicillin biosynthesis].addition of liquid vegetable oils to nutrient media decreased the intensity of penicillin biosynthesis. the unfavourable effect of the oils was more pronounced at the beginning of the process while they were not completely utilized. sunflower oil is a readily assimilated source of carbon. the rate of its consumption is higher than that of whale oil or lactose. like the majority of readily oxidized sources of carbon, sunflower oil must be a repressor of beta-galactosidase and the enzymes of penic ...19853933416
determination by high-performance liquid chromatography of some compounds involved in the biosynthesis of penicillin and cephalosporin.a sensitive and convenient method for the simultaneous determination of several of the compounds involved in the biosynthesis of penicillin and cephalosporin is described. the method involves derivatization with a chiral fluorogen (o-phthaldialdehyde with an optically active thiol n-acetyl-l-cysteine), followed by high-performance liquid chromatography on a reverse-phase column as described by aswad (d. w. aswad, 1984, anal. biochem. 137, 405-409). with an analysis time of 1 h it was possible to ...19853934999

chemical and pharmacological studies of 2-(amino-methyl)acrylophenones.the structure-activity relationships of nine products of the acrylophenone family have been studied. in a previous report 2-(4-methyl-1-piperazinylmethyl)acrylophenone was shown to be an antimicrotubular drug. the effects of these drugs on the bovine brain tubulin polymerization were determined by a turbidimetric assay. the median inhibitory concentrations (id50) ranged from 1.5 x 10(-5) to 5 x 10(-5) mol/l. their action on the inhibition of 3h-colchicine binding to tubulin was determined by dea ...19863954819
an enzymatic differential assay for urinary diamines, spermidine, and spermine.subsequent to the hydrolysis of urinary conjugated amines by heating with hydrochloric acid, free amines were isolated by cation-exchange chromatography. spd and spm in an aliquot of amine extract were first oxidized by pao from penicillium chrysogenum, producing put and hydrogen peroxide. dias, which consist of the initially present dias plus put produced by pao, were subsequently oxidized by puo from micrococcus rubens, producing hydrogen peroxide. in an another aliquot of the amine extract di ...19853980559
evidence for two distinct intracellular pools of inorganic sulfate in penicillium notatum.a strain of penicillium notatum unable to metabolize inorganic sulfate can accumulate sulfate internally to an apparent equilibrium concentration 10(5) greater than that remaining in the medium. the apparent keq is near constant at all initial external sulfate concentrations below that which would eventually exceed the internal capacity of the cells. under equilibrium conditions of zero net flux, external 35so42- exchanges with internal, unlabeled so42- at a rate consistent with the kinetic cons ...19853997782
cultivation of fungi in synthetic and semi-synthetic liquid medium. i. growth characteristics of the fungi and biochemical properties of the isolated antigenic material.four allergologically important fungi, viz. aspergillus fumigatus, alternaria penicillium notatum, and cladosporium herbarum, were cultured in a pure synthetic medium and the patterns of growth as characterized by the ph, protein and carbohydrate concentration of the culture fluid, were studied. a fumigatus and p. notatum showed a similar growth pattern, characterized by a rapid decrease in the ph of the culture medium (ph 7.4----4.0), while proteins were slowly released and saccharose poorly co ...19854091234
enzymes of gluconate metabolism and glycolysis in penicillium notatum.in addition to the ability of penicillium notatum to grow on sucrose, glucose, fructose and gluconate, substantial growth occurred on 2-ketogluconate and 5-ketogluconate thereby indicating a diverse sugar metabolism. cell-free extracts contained all the enzymes of the embden-meyerhof-parnas pathway and for both oxidative and non-oxidative pentose phosphate metabolism. despite inconsistencies in results between different assay methods for the conventional entner-doudoroff (ed) enzymes, the data i ...19854091540

inhibition of cellular protein synthesis by double-stranded rna: inactivation of an initiation factor.inhibition of protein synthesis in rabbit reticulocyte lysates by double-stranded rna is caused by the inactivation of if-3, an initiation factor required for the recycling of ribosomes and for their binding to messenger rna. the evidence for this is that (i) the inhibition can be overcome by addition of exogenous if-3; (ii) double-stranded rna inactivates stoichiometric amounts of if-3; (iii) double-stranded rna forms a complex with if-3; and (iv) double-stranded dna, which lacks inhibitory act ...19734197930

effect of cycloheximide on l-leucine transport by penicillium chrysogenum: involvement of calcium.cycloheximide (actidione) has an immediate inhibitory effect on amino acid transport by nitrogen-starved or carbon-starved mycelium suspended in phosphate buffer. high concentrations of phosphate alone are slightly inhibitory; cycloheximide appears to potentiate the effect of phosphate. ca(2+) reverses the inhibition of transport caused by phosphate plus cycloheximide. ca(2+) did not relieve the inhibition of protein synthesis. cycloheximide promotes a continual uptake of (45)ca(2+) by the mycel ...19734200128

insensitivity of homocitrate synthase in extracts of penicillium chyrosogenum to feedback inhibition by lysine.we previously reported that lysine inhibits in vivo homocitrate synthesis in the lysine bradytroph, penicillium chrysogenum l(1), and that such feedback inhibition could explain the known lysine inhibition of penicillin formation. in the present study, it was found that dialyzed cell-free extracts of mutant l(1) converted [1-(14)c]acetate to homocitrate. this homocitrate synthase activity was extremely labile but could be stabilized by high salt concentrations. the ph optimum of the reaction was ...19744212095
