Identification of a site on 18 S rRNA of human placenta ribosomes in the region of the mRNA binding center.

The affinity labeling of human placenta 80 S ribosomes by 4-(N-2-chloroethyl-N-methylamino)benzyl-5'-phosphamide of hexauridylate was studied. This mRNA analog has normal coding properties because its binding to placenta ribosomes significantly increases in the presence of cognate tRNAPhe. Incubation of the mRNA analog in the complex with the ribosomes and Phe-tRNAPhe leads to its covalent attachment exclusively to the small subunit (mainly to 18 S rRNA). The site of the reaction has been identified by hybridization experiments to be located within positions 975 to 1055 of 18 S rRNA. The identified fragment is located in a highly conserved part of the small subunit rRNA domain II.

Comparison of biodistribution of 3H, 32P and 99mTc labeled Gpp(NH)p in tumor bearing hamsters.

Biodistribution and tumor uptake studies were carried out with intravenously injected tracer doses of Gpp(NH)p labeled with 3H, 32P or 99mTc . Syrian golden hamsters with cheek pouch carcinomas, induced by repeated topical applications of DMBA, were used as a tumor model. The biodistributions of these three radionuclides were different, indicating significant molecular cleavage of this nucleotide analog. It was also apparent that this compound labeled with 99mTc may not be useful for tumor imaging due to low tumor-to-blood specific activity ratio. The cheek pouch carcinoma tumor model may be valuable for the evaluation of tumor localizing radiopharmaceuticals.

Amino acid grafting of beta-lactoglobulin mediated by phosphorus oxychloride.

beta-Lactoglobulin was phosphorylated with 80 mol of POCl3/mol protein in the presence of triethylamine and amino acids or their esters added at a total molar excess of 6 mol base/mol POCl3. The extent of phosphorylation was reduced when the amino acids replaced triethylamine as the base. Arginine and lysine were grafted to protein molecules in amounts proportional to the beta-lactoglobulin phosphorylation, while histidine grafting was very weak. The electrophoretic patterns of the modified proteins showed increased negative charges, reduced isoionic points and slight dimerization. The emulsifying properties of the modified proteins were improved.

Interaction of the antitumor Au(I) complex [Au(Ph2P(CH2)2PPh2)2]Cl with human blood plasma, red cells, and lipoproteins: 31P and 1H NMR studies.

The bis-chelated tetrahedral gold(I) complex [Au(dppe)2]Cl, where dppe is Ph2P(CH2)2PPh2, is active in several animal tumor models. When added to human blood plasma in vitro it appears to bind to lipoproteins, giving a slightly broadened 31P NMR signal, and 1H NMR resonances which are too broad to detect. Some lipoprotein is denatured. 31P NMR studies suggest that some [Au(dppe)2]+ is transferred from plasma to red cells with a half-life of ca. 2 hr. The complex binds within red cell membranes and the 1H resonances of intracellular glutathione are unaffected. The 31P NMR resonance from [Au(dppe)2]+ in red cell membranes is observable only when the complex is mobilized by addition of sodium dodecyl sulphate, which also mobilizes membrane phospholipids.

Enhanced chemiluminescence-based hybridization analysis for PCR-mediated HIV-1 DNA detection offers an alternative to 32P-labelled probes.

The efficiency of enhanced chemiluminescence based on a novel generation substrate for alkaline phosphatase, adamantyl-1,2-dioxetane phosphate, was compared with that of 32P-labelled probe for visualization of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HTV-1)-specific DNA-DNA hybrids. The probe used for nonisotopic detection was digoxigenin labelled and targeted by anti-digoxigenin antibody Fab-fragments conjugated to alkaline phosphatase. The dot-blot hybridization analysis performed on a dilution series of HIV-1 proviral DNA demonstrated a lower sensitivity limit of 0.5 pg with the nonisotopic method. However, one order of magnitude less DNA could still be detected by a random-primed 32P-labelled probe. The ability of nonradioactive and radioactive probes to detect 590-bp gag gene-specific target sequences generated by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-mediated amplification of HIV-1 DNA was also compared. Analysis of 20 samples from individuals at increased risk for HIV infection by using the two assayed systems produced virtually equivalent signal images on corresponding specimens. Furthermore, complete concordance in the performance was found when HIV-1 proviral DNA was investigated by PCR in additional 50 samples of human blood mononuclear cells.

Kinetics of endosomal acidification in Dictyostelium discoideum amoebae. 31P-NMR evidence for a very acidic early endosomal compartment.

We have examined the pH of the various endosomal compartments in the amoebae of the cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum. This was accomplished both by fluorescence and by in vivo 31P-NMR methods. The fluid-phase marker, fluorescein-labeled dextran, was fed to the amoebae to report the average pH of their endocytic vesicles. During the progressive loading of successive endosomal compartments, we observed an early acidification down to a minimum value of pH < or = 5.3 after 30 min at 20 degrees C followed by an increase to an average pH of 5.8 when all the endosomal compartments were loaded by the fluid-phase marker. The weak fluorescence intensity of FITC-dextran at acidic pH precluded a more detailed investigation and we checked various phosphonate compounds as potential 31P-NMR pH probes for the endosomal compartments. Two molecules, aminomethylphosphonate and 2-aminoethylphosphonate, were selected for this study because of the large amplitudes of their chemical shift variation with pH (2 and 2.5 ppm, respectively) and their acidic pKs of 5.5 and 6.3, respectively. They were only moderately toxic (IC50% approximately 10 mM) towards both the axenic growth and the differentiation program of Dictyostelium amoebae. Internalization of the two aminophosphonates occurred only through the fluid-phase pinocytosis pathway as revealed by the full inhibition of their entry with 1 mM vanadate or 7.5 mM caffeine, two previously characterized inhibitors of endocytosis in Dictyostelium. We found that in vivo 31P-NMR of amoebae suspensions incubated with the aminophosphonates allowed the detection of three distinct intracellular compartments at pH 4.3, 5.8-6.0 and 7.3. Kinetics of aminophosphonate entry were analyzed and the results allowed us to reconstruct the time course for the acidification sequence during endocytosis. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that in Dictyostelium amoebae phosphonates occupy a highly acidic early endosomal compartment (t1/2 = 18 min; pH 4.3) before reaching a less acidic late endosomal/prelysosomal compartment (pH 5.8-6.0) from where they are immediately transported to, and trapped in, the cytoplasm (pH 7.3).

Phosphorous pentachloride chemical burn--a slowly healing injury.

A 51-year-old chemical engineer sustained phosphorous pentachloride partial skin thickness burns over 20 per cent of his body surface area. Although macroscopically and microscopically the wound seemed to be superficial, the course of clinical healing of this injury was very slow and painful. Retrospectively this burn should have been treated by early excision and grafting.

Solid state multinuclear NMR study of sigma-acetylide complexes of platinum, trans-[ClPt(PnBu3)2-C=C-p-C6H4-C=C-Pt(PnBu3)2Cl] and trans-[-Pt(PnBu3)2-C=C-p-C6H4-C=C-]n.

Solid state 13C, 31P and 195Pt NMR has been employed to study the electronic and geometric structure of the dimeric and polymeric sigma-acetylide complexes of platinum, trans-[ClPt(PnBu3)2-C identical to C-p-C6H4-C identical to C-Pt(PnBu3)2Cl] and trans-[-Pt(PnBu3)2-C identical to C-p-C6H4-C identical to C-]n. The 195Pt shielding tensor has been measured and analysed to reveal details about the electronic properties of the Pt-ligand bonds.
