transcription and translation in a pleiotropic streptomycin-resistant mutant of escherichia coli.the role of the ribosomal protein s12 (streptomycin protein) in ribosome function and in other metabolic processes in the cell has been investigated. a spontaneous streptomycin-resistant strain of escherichia coli (sm3) carrying a mutation in the rpsl gene is deficient in its ability to induce the synthesis of the enzyme bets-galactosidase. it was demonstrated that the reduced rate of enzyme synthesis results from deficiencies in both the transcription of the lactose operon and translation of th ...1979104958
isolation of an iron-binding compound from pseudomonas aeruginosa.an iron-binding compound was isolated from ethyl acetate extracts of culture supernatant fluids of pseudomonas aeruginosa and was purified by successive paper and thin-layer chromatographic procedures. the purified compound was characterized by uv, visible, infrared, and fluorescence spectroscopy. the compound possesses phenolic characteristics, with little or no similarity to dihydroxybenzoates and no indication of a hydroxamate group. p. aeruginosa synthesized the compound during active growth ...1979104968
the effect of levamisole on dmba-induced carcinogenesis in the hamster cheek pouch.the effect of levamisole on dmba-induced carcinogenesis in the cheek pouch of the hamster was studied. findings indicate that levamisole modified the response of the pouch to dmba at six weeks, while this effect was not maintained after 12 weeks of dmba application.1998105023
characteristics of drosophila rhodopsin in wild-type and norpa vision transduction mutants.the properties of the major visual pigment of drosophila melanogaster were evaluated. the visual pigment was isolated from other protein components using acrylamide gel electrophoresis and spectral identification. sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) acrylamide gels of the isolated visual pigment gave a single protein subunit with a mol wt of 37,000 daltons. the rhodopsin480 molar extinction coefficient was 35,000 liter/mol-cm (+/- 2,700 se). the metarhodopsin580 molar extinction coefficient was approxi ...1998105082
leukemia in workers exposed to ethylene oxide.ethylene oxide, a gaseous sterilant extensively used within health care facilities, is known to be a mutagen in bacteria and in human lymphocytes. the environmental protection agency as well as the national institue of occupational safety and health have recently stipulated certain conditions for the use of ethylene oxide despite the lack of case reports or epidemiologic studies concerning carcinogenicity. we report three cases of leukemia that occurred between 1972 and 1977 in a relatively smal ...1979105157
prophylactic antibiotics in surgery. practices within surgical services of the veterans administration.a survey of prophylactic antibiotic-prescribing habits among chiefs of surgical services of the veterans administration yielded a 99% response. these responses have been compared with guidelines set by an expert committee on antimicrobial use for the va central office. assuming that 100% concordance with the standards of the committee is a desired state, the average hospital is approximately one third away from this goal (average score, 62.4%). the majority of errors were those of overuse rather ...1998105162

genetic and biochemical aspects of trehalase from drosophila melanogaster.only one molecular form of trehalase (e.c. 3.2.1.28) was detectable in adult drosophila melanogaster by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. an examination of duplication- and deletion-bearing aneuploids exhibiting dosage sensitivity indicated that the enzyme is encoded by a gene, treh+, located between 55b and 55e of the second chromosome. the tissue-specific soluble and particulate forms of trehalase appear to be manifestations of a single protein encoded by a single ge ...1998105719
the necessity of magnesium cation for acid assistance aglycone departure in catalysis by escherichia coli (lacz) beta-galactosidase.1. removal of mg2+ from escherichia coli (lacz) beta-galactosidase slightly increases the rate of hydrolysis of galactosyl pyridinium salts, but decreases the rate of hydrolysis of arylgalactosides. 2. fair correlation of logkcat. and log (km) with the pka of aglycone is now observed for arglygalactosides, as well as for glycosyl pyridinium salts. 3. degalactosylation of mg2+-free enzyme is the rate-limiting step in the hydrolysis of 2,4-dinitrophenyl galactoside. 4. alpha-deuterium kinetic isot ...1978105722
mutual homology of mouse immunoglobulin gamma-chain gene sequences.we have assessed the relative homology of mouse immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene sequence using complementary dnas (cdnas) synthesized against gamma-chain mrnas (gamma 1, gamma 2a, gamma 2b, and gamma 3) purified from mouse myelomas. cdnas complementary to the gamma-chain mrnas did not cross-hybridize with the mu- and alpha-chain mrnas, whereas they cross-hybridized to significant extents (22--66%) with the gamma-chain mrnas of other subclasses. the heterologous hybrids formed, however, melt at 5 ...1979105754
malnutrition in infants receiving cult diets: a form of child abuse.severe nutritional disorders, including kwashiorkor, marasmus, and rickets, were seen in four children and were due to parental food faddism, which should perhaps be regarded as a form of child abuse. all disorders were corrected with more normal diets and vitamin supplements. in view of the potentially serious consequences of restricted diets being fed to children, families at risk should be identified and acceptable nutritional advice given. when children are found to be suffering from undernu ...1998105778
production and characterization of two hemolysins of bacillus cereus.bacillus cereus strain b-48 produced two hemolysins with molecular weights of 52,000 (h-i) and 31,000 (h-ii). a mutant was isolated that produced only h-ii but was identical with the wild type in all other respects. we exploited this mutant to produce h-ii for study that was free of contamination by h-i. by manipulation of media composition, we produced h-i in the absence of h-ii. the hemolysins were precipitated differently by ammonium sulfate, and both exhibited the arrhenius effect when heate ...1978105792
