Karyological Studies on Mosses IV

Karyological studies in Jaborosa (Solanaceae)

Sixteen species of Jaborosa (Solanaceae), including eight endemic to Argentina, were studied karyologically. The numbers n = 12 and/or 2n = 24 were found in all species, the majority of the cases being new reports. Mitotic chromosomes were smallto medium-sized, the average length varying from 2.95 to 4.93 mm. All species had one to three chromosome pairs with satellites. The karyotypes, obtaine...

Karyological studies in Brazilian species of Lippia L. (Verbenaceae).

The genus Lippia (Verbenaceae) comprise around 160 species spread out mainly in South and Central Americas with few African species, some of them with potential medicinal use. Brazil is one the most important centers of diversity with approximately 75% of the species described so far. Innumerous species are endemic and poorly studied especially at a cytological level. Here, chromosomal length, ...

Structural studies on human type IV collagen.

Type IV collagen was isolated from limited pepsin digests of human placenta by selective salt precipitation at acidic and neutral pH. The native protein was resistant to human skin collagenase but was cleaved by a rat mast cell protease. Molecular sieve chromatography of the reduced and alkylated material separated relatively homogeneous components of molecular weight 140,000 (140K) and 100,000...
