چکیده

Microspores isolated from Lilium longiflorum and Trillium erectum were studied with respect to their capacities for phosphorylating deoxyribosides in vitro. It was found that such capacities are manifest only during brief intervals of time adjacent to periods of DNA synthesis, and that none of the neighboring cells in the anther acquire them. The observed patterns of behavior are interpreted in terms of enzyme induction as a device for regulating DNA synthesis.

P146: Gamma Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and its Alterations in Stress

Gamma aminobutyrate (GABA) is a non-protein amino acid that is thought to play an important role in the modulation of the central response to stress. Mechanisms by which GABA may facilitate these responses to stress are metabolic and/or mechanical disruptions. Environmental stresses increase GABA accumulation through cytosolic acidification, induce an acidic pH-dependent activation of glutamate...

Effect of actinomycin D on the transfer of ribonucleic acid from nucleus to cytoplasm in Lactobacillus acidophilus.

After starvation for deoxyribosides, the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of Lactobacillus acidophilus is restricted to a localized region of the cell. (3)H-uracil is first incorporated into such a restricted region but subsequently is found throughout the cell. This spread occurs despite the absence of protein synthesis and a major reduction in the rate of ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthesis. However,...

MIICROBIOLOGICAL DETER1\IINATION OF DEOXYRIBoNUCLEIC ACID TITRIMETRIC ESTIMATION OF THYMIDINE SQREN

One of the most sensitive and specific methods for quantitative estimation of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the microbiological one developed by Hoff-J0rgensen (1951, 1954). This method is l)ased on the fact that Thermobacterium acidophilum (Lactobacillus acidophilus) strain R 26 Orla Jensen is unable to grow in the absence of deoxyribosides. The DNA containing sample is digested with deoxyrib...

Deoxyribonucleic Acid

The effects of the three antibiotics U-12,241, nogalamycin, and U-20,661 on (i) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthesis in KB cell cultures and cell-free systems of bacterial and mammalian origin and on (ii) oxidative phosphorylation in rat liver mitochondria were compared. Nogalamycin and U-12,241 inhibited RNA synthesis more strongly than DNA synthesis in all test sys...
