Xxxviii. Metabolic Studies in Phenylketonuria

F6LLING [1934] discovered that, in certain cases of mental deficiency, phenylpyruvic acid was excreted in the urine. His attention was drawn to the phenomenon by the characteristic colour produced by the addition of ferric chloride solution to the urines of these patients, and he identified the responsible substance as phenylpyruvic acid. Other cases have since been recognized [Penrose, 1935]. ...

Lecture XXXVIII: Primordial perturbations: tensor sector

Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVIII ( 2007 ) 1259 . pdf

Backgrounds: The aim of this research is development of an online conference system that supports collaborative works on planetary missions. This system has an applicability on collaborative analysis of planetary remote sensing data, and productions of thematic maps from these data by researchers remotely placed at their own home institutes. Many lunar explorations are planned to be launch in a...

Studies on the physiological chemistry of the salivary glands. XXXVIII. Proteolytic activity of human saliva.

Recently it was reported that submaxillary gland homogenate of rat degraded I131-labeled Parotin, growth hormone, and casein with remarkable rapidity as compared with kidney, liver, spleen, pancreas, testis, muscle, and parotid gland homogenates. This rapid degradation of the labeled proteins by rat submaxillary homogenate was found to be proteolytic in nature, by quantitative paperchromatograp...

Methods in Enzymology. Volume XXXVIII, Hormone Action, Part C, Cyclic Nucleotides

In this and the previous volume on lipids, Vol. XXXIV, Lowenstein has assembled two of the stronger recent volumes in this series. The first volume dealt with the enzymes of lipid synthesis and degradation, general analytical methods, and the preparation of substrates. This new volume is divided into the same sections, although the bulk of the book is concerned with enzymes. I think this is the...
