The amino acid composition of normal human urinary mucoprotein.
The fibrous urinary mucoprotein of Tamm and Horsfall, which is a temporary inhibitor of the hemagglutination reaction of the myxoviruses, exists in normal human urine in two molecular forms, one a tetramer of the other (1). The smaller form, of molecular weight 7 X 106, length 6 X lo3 A, and width 40 A, can be dissociated further by transverse cleaving into half molecules (2) and into quarter m...
متن کاملFundamental Factors Determining the Nature of Parasite Aggregation in Hosts
The distribution of parasites in hosts is typically aggregated: a few hosts harbour many parasites, while the remainder of hosts are virtually parasite free. The origin of this almost universal pattern is central to our understanding of host-parasite interactions; it affects many facets of their ecology and evolution. Despite this, the standard statistical framework used to characterize parasit...
متن کاملA molecular abnormality of urinary mucoprotein in cystic fibrosis of the pancreas.
Since its first complete description in 1938 by Anderson, concepts of the pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis have been rapidly and continuously modified. The initial concept of pathology primarily in the pancreas had quickly to be extended to include primary pathology in other mucous-secreting glands because of clinical and histological evidence of abnormalities in the biliary tract and especially...
متن کاملDetermining the Prognostic Factors of Permanent Congenital Hypothyroidism
Introduction: Neonatal hypothyroidism, a preventable cause of mental retardation, has a high prevalence in Iran. Considering the high prevalence of the transient form of this disease, which recovers within 4-6 months after birth, it is important to determine factors that can differentiate between permanent and transient hypothyroidism in Iran. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective cohort...
متن کاملAn Electrophoretic Examination of a Urinary Mucoprotein Which Reacts with Various Viruses
A mucoprotein isolated from human urine and possessing the capacity to react with a number of viruses is electrophoretically homogeneous at pH 6.8 and 8.6. After treatment with influenza virus and elimination of its biological activity, the substance remains homogeneous and its electrophoretic mobility is decreased by approximately 20 per cent.
