alpha-fetoprotein as a carrier protein in plasma and its bilirubin-binding ability.	the bilirubin-binding ability of human alpha-fetoproteins, which were purified from fetal cord serum and from ascites fluid of a hepatoma-bearing patient, was examined by the difference spectrum and the jacobsen peroxidase methods. the difference spectrum observed as a result of the specific binding of bilirubin to alpha-fetoprotein had a maximum at 482 nm, and this pattern was quite similar to that observed for serum albumin. the result obtained by the difference spectrum method showed that 1 m ...	1979	89900
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 ...	1979	104958
functional heterogeneity of intestinal escherichia coli strains expressing type 1 somatic pili (fimbriae): assessment of bacterial adherence to intestinal membranes and surface hydrophobicity.	although the role of host-specific, nonmannose-sensitive pilus adhesins in the intestinal adherence of pathogenic escherichia coli is well established, a similar role for mannose-sensitive type 1 or common pili is less clear, since these structures can be expressed by most e. coli, even nonpathogens. we first examined whether type 1 pili, expressed by the rabbit-effacing, adherent, enteropathogenic e. coli strain rdec-1, mediated interactions with intestinal membranes of several species and comp ...	1985	2863216
phase shift of daily profiles of n-acetyltransferase in the rat pineal gland.	pineal n-acetyltransferase activity (nat) has a circadian rhythm with peak values in the dark time and low values in the light time. nat time profiles were measured in rats exposed to ld 14:10, to constant dark, and to acute (less than 48 hr) light-dark treatments. in all experiments, imposition of light suppressed nat. the phase of the dark time nat cycle was altered 2 hr or less by the following treatments: 3 hr light in the early subjective night, 3 hr light in the late subjective night, 2 hr ...	1985	3831309
protein loss of bovine dental enamel during in-vitro subsurface demineralization.	a chemical system based on the dialysis principle was used to study protein loss of dental enamel during demineralization with an acetic-acid buffer solution containing calcium and phosphate, in which the fluoride-ion activity was kept constant. this resulted in a subsurface lesion, with a depth of about 130 microns. after demineralization, protein material was isolated from the demineralization solution. u.v. spectra of the protein showed strong absorbance between 240 and 300 nm. amino-acid com ...	1985	3865639
variation in activities of non-plasmin fibrinolytic proteinase and plasminogen-activator in the lung and spleen induced by bacterial endotoxin in rats with special reference to the effects of md-805.	the behavior of direct fibrinolytic (non-plasmin) proteinase activity and plasminogen-activator activity in the lung and spleen was investigated in rats after a single intravenous injection of bacterial endotoxin, and the influence of thrombin inhibitors on the effects of the endotoxin was assessed. the non-plasmin fibrinolytic activity was markedly increased following a decrease of plasminogen-activator in the lung. in addition, variations in hematological parameters, i.e. a decrease of platele ...	1985	3901390
escherichia fergusonii and enterobacter taylorae, two new species of enterobacteriaceae isolated from clinical specimens.	escherichia fergusonii (formerly known as enteric group 10) and enterobacter taylorae (formerly known as enteric group 19) are proposed as new species in the family enterobacteriaceae. by dna hybridization (32p, 60 degrees c, hydroxyapatite), strains of e. fergusonii were 90 to 97% related to the type strain (holotype) atcc 35469. they were most closely related to escherichia coli and more distantly related to species in other genera. e. fergusonii strains are positive for indole production, met ...	1985	3968204
metastatic nontraumatic clostridium septicum osteomyelitis.	nontraumatic clostridial infections are rare, but need to be diagnosed and treated early or high morbidity and mortality rates result. we believe that this is the first reported case of metastatic nontraumatic clostridium septicum osteomyelitis. early treatment with surgical debridement and parenteral antibiotics without hyperbaric oxygen was used. an associated occult rectal malignancy was discovered and treated.	1985	3980945
energy dependence of lung phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis studied with co hypoxia.	the energy dependence of lung phosphatidylcholine (pc) biosynthesis was evaluated by measuring incorporation of radiolabeled precursor substrates by the isolated perfused lung during carbon monoxide (co)-induced hypoxia. ventilation with gases containing 75 or 90% co (plus 5% o2 and 5% co2) resulted in a mean decrease of lung atp content by 29 and 53%, respectively, and a significant decrease of [u-14c]glucose incorporation into free fatty acids and the fatty acyl moiety of lung pc.

oligonucleotide probe for the visualization of escherichia coli/escherichia fergusonii cells by in situ hybridization: specificity and potential applications.	there are several occasions when enumeration of escherichia coli cells is needed. these include examination of urine specimens and water or food samples. present methods rely on growth in more or less selective media (colony-forming units on agar or the most probable number method using liquid media). unfortunately, no really selective medium with 100% efficiency of plating is available for e. coli. a 24-mer oligonucleotide probe (colinsitu), complementary to a piece of 16s ribosomal ribonucleic ...	2000	11037130
correction of fallot's tetralogy after palliative operations.	during the period 1960 to 1978, 98 patients underwent intracardiac repair of fallot's tetralogy after palliative operations. preoperative symptoms were cyanosis, dyspnea, increased fatigue with squatting and hypoxic spells. the hemoglobin concentration varied from 19 to 22 g/100 ml. at correction only 65 of 95 shunts were patent and needed surgical closure. seventeen early deaths occurred (19%), the main causes being cardiac failure and arrhythmia. one patient died 3 years after correction from ...	2000	87399
biogenic amines produced by enterobacteriaceae isolated from meat products.	biogenic amines in ground meat and processed meat products are one of the indicators to determine the poor quality raw material. major histamine forming bacterium was escherichia coli (strain ec04 with 65.88 mg/100 ml in brain heart infusion medium), followed by the microorganisms morganella morganii (strain mm4 with 8.40 mg/100 ml and strain mm7 with 8.28 mg/100 ml) and proteus mirabilis (strain pm02 with 8.76 mg/100 ml), respectively. the highest putrescine production level was found in citrob ...	2001	22062111

colicins produced by the escherichia fergusonii strains closely resemble colicins encoded by escherichia coli.	plasmid dna of six escherichia fergusonii colicinogenic strains (three producers of colicin e1, two of ib and one of ia) was isolated and the colicin-encoding regions of the corresponding col plasmids were sequenced. two new variants of colicin e1, one of colicin ib, and one of colicin ia were identified as well as new variants of the colicin e1 and colicin ib immunity proteins and the colicin e1 lysis polypeptide. the recombinant escherichia coli producer harboring pcole1 from e. fergusonii str ...	2002	11959446
cloning and sequencing of the beta-lactamase gene and surrounding dna sequences of citrobacter braakii, citrobacter murliniae, citrobacter werkmanii, escherichia fergusonii and enterobacter cancerogenus.	to further identify the origins of plasmid-mediated cephalosporinases that are currently spreading worldwide, the chromosomal beta-lactamase genes of citrobacter braakii, citrobacter murliniae, citrobacter werkmanii reference strains and of escherichia fergusonii and enterobacter cancerogenus clinical isolates were cloned and expressed into escherichia coli and sequenced. these beta-lactamases had all a single pi value >8 and conferred a typical ampc-type resistance pattern in e. coli recombinan ...	2002	12393205
the escherichia fergusonii iucabcd iuta genes are located within a larger chromosomal region similar to pathogenicity islands.	three strains of escherichia fergusonii (ef873, ef1496, ef939) of 50 strains tested produced the hydroxamate siderophore aerobactin. screening of a cosmid library of the strain ef873 chromosomal dna (in aerobactin nonproducing escherichia coli vcs257) for aerobactin production identified iucabcd and iuta gene orthologues. the predicted iucabcd and iuta proteins showed 59-65% identity to the corresponding proteins of shigella flexneri and e. coli. aerobactin molecules synthesized by e. fergusonii ...	2003	12800494
resection of a massive arteriovenous malformation of the head and neck.	we report a patient with a massive arteriovenous malformation of the head and neck treated by surgical extirpation of the lesion. arteriography, hypotensive hypothermic anesthesia, and the intraoperative use of the doppler flowmeter were most helpful in this case.	2003	154679
