چکیده
VLBI observations at 5 GHz have revealed that supernova 1979C, in the galaxy M100 in the Virgo cluster, has shell structure. The shell is approximately circular with the 50% contour deviating from a circle by an rms of no more than 8% of the radius. The brightness distribution along the ridge may vary. The position of the center of the shell is at R.A.=12 h 22 m 58. s 66758 and decl.=15 • 47 ′ 51. ′′ 9695 (J2000), with a standard error of 0.8 mas in each of the coordinates. No isolated central component is visible above a flux density limit of ∼150 µJy which corresponds to an upper limit of ∼15 times the corresponding spectral luminosity of the Crab Nebula. The radio lightcurve is clearly falling again and the radio spectrum is now flatter than at earlier times. SN 1979C is only the fourth, and oldest (optically identified) supernova of which a detailed image could be obtained.

Biosynthesis in Escherichia coli of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate, a precursor of phospholipid. Palmitoyl-CoA inhibition of the biosynthetic sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.
Homogeneous biosynthetic sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.8) of Escherichia coli was potently inhibited by palmitoyl-CoA and other long chain acyl-CoA thioesters. The concentration dependence of this inhibition was not cooperative. Enzyme activity was inhibited 50% at 1 microM palmitoyl-CoA; thus, this inhibition occurred at concentrations below the critical micellar concentratio...
متن کاملDisturbance of phospholipid metabolism during the selective destruction of tumor cells induced by alkyl-lysophospholipids.
Alkyl-lysophospholipids inhibit the growth of Meth A sarcoma cells in vitro. In contrast, murine bone marrow macrophages are not sensitive to the destructive effect of these substances. Since alkyl-lysophospholipids are antimetabolites in the synthesis of 3-sn-phosphatidylcholine, tumor cell destruction can be correlated with the disturbance of this metabolism. A decreased synthesis of 3-sn-pho...
متن کاملA preorder-free construction of the Kazhdan-Lusztig representations of Sn, with connections to the Clausen representations
We use the polynomial ring C[x1,1, . . . , xn,n] to modify the Kazhdan-Lusztig construction of irreducible Snmodules. This modified construction produces exactly the same matrices as the original construction in [Invent. Math 53 (1979)], but does not employ the Kazhdan-Lusztig preorders. We also show that our modules are related by unitriangular transition matrices to those constructed by Claus...
متن کاملDegradation of bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate by an acid phosphodiesterase in rat liver lysosomes.
Bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate was purified from the livers of chloroquine-treated rats and labeled with tritium by a nonreductive catalytic exchange procedure. The mechanism of its degradation by rat liver lysosomes has been examined. A substantial amount of bis(monoacylglycero)P is degraded to monoglyceride and lysophosphatidic acid by a lysosomal phosphodiesterase having an acid pH optimum. S...
متن کاملGHz VLBI Observations of SN 1979 C : almost - free expansion ( Research Note )
We report on 1.6 GHz Very-Long-Baseline-Interferometry (VLBI) observations of supernova SN 1979C made on 18 November 2002. We derive a model-dependent supernova size. We also present a reanalysis of VLBI observations made by us on June 1999 and by other authors on February 2005. We conclude that, contrary to our earlier claim of strong deceleration in the expansion, SN 1979C has been undergoing...
متن کاملEvidence for the existence of isoenzymes of glycerol phosphate acyltransferase.
Subcellular-fractionation studies confirmed previous findings that rat liver glycerol phosphate acyltransferase was located in both mitochondria and the microsomal fraction. Studies of the two activities revealed several differences between them. The mitochondrial enzyme had a lower Km for sn-glycerol 3-phosphate and was more resistant to heat inactivation than was the microsomal enzyme. Some p...
