comparative sequence analysis, in vitro expression and biosynthesis of mouse prp.	a number of studies have indicated that an endogenous brain protein, prp, is associated with transmissible agents causing spongiform encephalopathies such as scrapie, kuru, and creutzfeldt-jakob disease. it has been proposed that prp derived from scrapie brain is the scrapie agent itself. to test directly whether the prp mrna in scrapie brain tissue can encode the scrapie agent, we expressed prp cdna cloned from scrapie-infected mouse brain in vitro. the expressed prp did not transmit scrapie to ...	1989	2574873
glutamate degradation in the ischemic dog heart: contribution to anaerobic energy production.	the present study investigated the conversion of amino acids to succinate and the contribution of this pathway to anaerobic energy production during regional ischemia in the dog heart in situ. the relation between regional myocardial blood flow, estimated by the tracer microsphere technique, and myocardial contents of metabolites (glutamate, alanine, succinate, lactate) as well as their local arterio-venous differences (a-v) were determined. during 30 min of coronary artery occlusion, myocardial ...	1989	2565982
bone bonding behavior of mgo-cao-sio2-p2o5-caf2 glass (mother glass of a.w-glass-ceramics).	in this study, it was found that a ca-p layer and a si layer were formed on the interface of the mother glass of apatite-wollastonite containing glass-ceramics (designated aw) and bone tissue. the dissolution of si, ca, and p from glass (mgo-cao-sio2-p2o5-caf2) is necessary to form a chemical film (a si layer and a ca-p layer). the three kinds of glasses used were 1) a mirror surface of the mother glass (mgo 4.6, cao 44.9, sio2 34.2, p2o5 16.3, caf 0.5 weight ratio) of aw (designated g-aw (mirro ...	1989	2738079
mutational specificity and the influence of excision repair: insights into the mechanisms of error-avoidance and error-fixation.	the excision repair process controlled by the uvrabc gene in escherichia coli is the major pathway for the repair of a diverse series of dna damages. to achieve a better understanding of the mechanics of this repair pathway and its impact upon mutagenesis, we have applied a recently developed technology by which the nature of mutation is determined at the dna sequence level. a comparison of the classes and distribution of mutation in excision-repair-proficient and excision-repair-deficient strai ...	1989	2698833
