Isolation of 57Co-cobalamin coenzymes at high specific activity from Streptomyces griseus.

The distribution of radio-labelled cobalamins in Streptomyces griseus grown in medium containing 57Co-cobalt chloride has been estimated by two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography and bioautography. 57Co-Methylocobalamin (Me[57Co]Cbl) was the major form in the mycelium together with smaller amounts of 57Co-adenosylcobalamin (Ado[57Co]Cbl) and 57Co-hydroxocobalamin (OH[57Co]Cbl). The OH[57Co]Cbl was detected in three forms having, respectively, anionic, cationic and neutral properties. A simple technique has been developed to isolate and purify Me[57Co]Cbl and Ado[57Co]Cbl from the mycelium using column chromatography on ion-exchange celluloses. Small quantities of each cobalamin coenzyme have been obtained at 90--96% purity and specific activities of 190--230 muCi/microgram.

Communicating hydrocephalus in children with genetic inborn errors of metabolism.

The authors have seen eight cases of communicating hydrocephalus in children with genetic metabolic disorders, namely, one mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I or Hurler syndrome), one MPS II (Hunter's disease), four MPS III (Sanfilippo syndrome) two of which were siblings, and two achondroplasias. The authors recommend surgical treatment of the latter but are doubtful about the former in which case hydrocephalus is only a contributing cause to severe dementia. In MPS hydrocephalus is due to accumulation of storage material in the piaarachnoid, as indicated by RISA cisternography carried out in six cases.
