چکیده

Some speculations on the origin and evolution of NC genes have been presented elsewhere."1 Summary.-Evidence has been presented of recombination in Chlamydomonas involving two nonchromosomal genes. The two are unlinked, but each exhibits intragenic recombination between mutant alleles, giving rise to wild-type recombinants. In one of them, the acetate gene, reciprocal recombinants containing both of the parental mutant sites have also been detected. The results are interpreted as evidence of the nucleic acid composition of these nonchromosomal genes.

Characterization of cholesterol-binding globulin by modified zone electrophoresis and O-(diethylaminoethyl) cellulose chromatography.

Normal human serum has been shown' to exhibit cholesterol-binding properties upon immunoelectrophoresis on agar gel. The evidence clearly supports the concept of a specific type of binding of cholesterol by alpha-beta globulin. Accordingly, the name "transcholesterin" was proposed for the reactive component. In order to evaluate the mechanism of in vitro interaction of cholesterol with transcho...

Correlation between Serum T3 Resin Uptake and Serum Lipid Profile

Abstract Background and Objective: T3 resin uptake test indicates the availability of thyroxin binding globulin (TBG), which is the carrier of a large amount of T3 and T4 in blood. We aimed to study the relationship between serum T3 Resin Uptake and serum lipids profile. Material and Methods: The participants aged 14.80 ± 38.29 were both males (59 29.5%) and females (141 70.5 %). T3 Resi...

Serum proteins and fractions, HDL-cholesterol and total IgG and IgE levels in cases of acute and chronic paracoccidioidomycosis.

This study evaluated serum protein fractions, HDL-cholesterol, total immunoglobulin G and total immunoglobulin E levels in patients with acute and chronic paracoccidioidomycosis, by means of electrophoresis, enzymatic reaction and immunoenzymatic assay. The results demonstrated elevated levels of total immunoglobulin G, total immunoglobulin E, alpha-2 and gamma-globulins, which were more eviden...

Serum lipid profile improved by ultra-low doses of 17 beta-estradiol in elderly women.

To determine whether ultra-low doses of estradiol (E(2)) affect the serum lipid profile in elderly women, we analyzed changes in serum lipids and lipoproteins in 70 healthy women, 60 yr and older, randomly assigned to parenteral E(2) (7.5 microg per 24 h) delivered by a vaginal ring (Estring; Pharmacia-Upjohn, Malmö, Sweden) or no treatment for 12 months. Baseline serum estrone sulfate (E1S), b...
