comparison of the structural characteristics of cell-cam 105 from hepatocytes with those of an altered form expressed by rat transplantable hepatocellular carcinomas.	the structural features of the adult rat hepatocyte (arh) forms of cell-cam 105, a mr 105,000 cell adhesion molecule, were compared using a variety of immunochemical and biochemical techniques with altered forms of more basic pi present on two transplantable hepatocellular carcinomas (thc 1682c and thc as-30d). immunoprecipitation analysis with polyclonal (anti-gp 105-2) and monoclonal (mab) antibodies specific for cell-cam 105 (mab 362.50) demonstrated that arh and thc cell-cam 105 were indisti ...	1989	2819719
regulation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor phosphorylation in rat myotubes by forskolin and camp.	the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (acchor) from rat myotubes prelabeled in culture with [32p]orthophosphate was isolated by acetylcholine affinity chromatography followed by immunoaffinity chromatography. under basal conditions, the nicotinic acchor was shown to be phosphorylated in situ on the beta and delta subunits. regulation of acchor phosphorylation by camp-dependent protein kinase was explored by the addition of forskolin or camp analogues to prelabeled cell cultures. forskolin, an act ...	1987	2819883
tn602: a naturally occurring relative of tn903 with direct repeats.	we report the characterization of tn602, a transposon encoding resistance to kanamycin and related aminoglycosides present on the r-plasmid pgd10. tn602 is highly homologous to the previously characterized tn903, present on the r-plasmid r6, in that it consists of a gene for aminoglycoside-phosphotransferase-3'-i (homologous to that of tn903) flanked by copies of an is-element homologous to is903. tn602 differs from tn903 in the following respects: the flanking is-elements (is602) are in direct ...	1987	2819910
iga multiple myeloma coexistent with atypical adult t-cell leukemia.	we report a 65-yr-old male with adult t-cell leukemia (atl) who developed multiple myeloma (mm) concomitantly. skin lesions and peripheral leukocytosis were noted during the 5-yr observation period. there was abnormal lymphocytosis with indented or lobulated nuclei in the peripheral blood and in the bone marrow. the neoplastic cells reacted with monoclonal antibodies, okt3, okt4, okia1 and anti-tac. his serum was positive for the antibodies to atl-associated antigens. human t-cell leukemia virus ...	1987	2820787

the molybdenum-pterin binding protein is encoded by a multigene family in clostridium pasteurianum.	there are three variants of the molybdenum-pterin binding protein (mop) encoded by three distinct genes in clostridium pasteurianum. nucleotide sequence analysis shows that the three mop genes have greater than 90% homology at the nucleotide level. upstream from the coding region of each mop gene are potential promoter consensus sequences. analysis of mop purified from cells grown under nitrogen-fixing conditions indicates all three genes are expressed. sequence analysis of the three mop genes a ...	1987	2820842
antibodies to polymerized human serum albumin in acute and chronic liver disease.	since antibodies to polyalbumin have been noted to occur in patients with hepatitis or cirrhosis, we investigated sera from 219 patients with a variety of acute and chronic liver diseases with and without hbsag using an elisa. the prevalence of circulating polyalbumin antibodies was shown to be significantly increased over that of healthy controls (6.7%) in patients with autoimmune chronic active hepatitis (67%), acute viral hepatitis (41%) and fulminant hepatic necrosis (38%), but such antibodi ...	1987	2820857

overproduction and purification of the tn3 transposase.	the tn3 transposase accumulated to about 4% of total cell protein in a minicell-producing escherichia coli strain harboring a transposase overproducer plasmid. this accumulation of the transposase seems to be due to four factors: derepression of transcription resulting from inactivation of the repressor gene (tnpr); efficient translation caused by a mutation within the shine-dalgarno (sd) sequence, the dosage effect of the increased plasmid copy number resulting from deletion of the rom gene of ...	1987	2820953
