Biotechnology of Duboisia alkaloids.

New ways for medicinal plant improvement and for the production of plant drugs have opened up as the result of advances in plant biotechnology and increasing interest in plant-derived pharmaceuticals. This article highlights plant improvement of Duboisia and production of tropane alkaloids using modern techniques such as plant tissue and cell culture, root culture, radioimmunoassay in tropane alkaloid analysis, and molecular biology in the studies of tropane biosynthesis.

Crystal structure determination of mung bean trypsin inhibitor Lys fragment-bovine trypsin complex--molecular replacement, electron density map at 3.0 angstron resolution.

The orientation and position of the trypsin molecule in the complex crystal cell mung bean trypsin inhibitor Lys fragment (MBILF)-bovine trypsin (BTRY) have been successfully determined by molecular replacement method with the model of the refined bovine trypsin molecule. Starting from the BTRY coordinates which were oriented and located in the correct azimuth and position in the complex cell according to the result from rotation function and translation function, sim-weighted Fourier map with coefficients 2/Fo/-/Fc/ at 3.0 A resolution was calculated. Besides the electron density which is obviously attributed to itself, in the vicinity of the active site of BTRY the dense contour levels corresponding to the MBILF and and its boundary could be clearly seen in this map. The size of MBILF was approximately estimated at 15 x 15 x 25 A.

Traumatic forequarter amputation: case report.

Traumatic forequarter amputation is rare and extremely mutilating. A 21-year-old male factory worker who sustained a traumatic shoulder girdle amputation is described. The injury mechanism was traction from the machine's force combined with the compressive force on the sternoclavicular joint. The factors leading to survival from this injury include rapid transportation, prompt and effective resuscitation, including treatment of shock, and adequate surgical management. Recognition of the complications associated with retrosternoclavicular dislocation is emphasized.
