APPEARANCE OF SULFHYDRYL GROUPS DURING GROWTH OF BACILLUS GLOBIGII

Appearance of sulfhydryl groups during growth of Bacillus globigii.

The sensitivity of growing bacterial cells to destructive agents or influences is many times that of bacterial spores (Curran, 1952). Some of these agents act on sulfhydryl groups of proteins; on the other hand, sulfhydryl groups belong to the most sensitive groups in proteins and are vital for the function of many enzymes (Barron, 1951). The question may be raised whether the degree of resista...

Methyl dipicolinate monoester from spores of Bacillus cereus var. globigii.

the effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation

in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.

Sulfhydryl Groups in Proteins

Egg albumin in the native, unaltered state, does not give tests characteristic of sulfhydryl groups. When, however, this protein is treated in any one of several ways, such as by heat (8, 9, 17), ultraviolet irradiation (lo), shaking (lo), or by solution in urea or other amides (7), free sulfhydryl groups make their appearance. The amount of free -SH groups appearing in egg albumin through the ...
