An Electrochemical Study of the S-Derivatives of 2-Amino Cyclopentene-1-Dithiocharboxylic Acid in Aqueous Ethanolic Media

A systematic study on the electrochemical behavior of the S-derivatives of 2-amino cyclopentene-1-dithiocarboxylic acid (ACDA) has been carried out in aqueous ethanolic solutions by means of polarography, coulometry and voltammetry. All the compounds studied exhibited a well defined anodic wave corresponding to a diffusion controlled process. Controlled potential coulometry gave n=1 per mol...

Dietary Formulation with Poultry by-Product Meal on a Total Amino Acid vs. a Digestible Amino Acid Basis

Previous results indicated that performance of chicks fed a high level (10%) of poultry by-product meal(PBM) was lower than performance of chicks fed a corn-soybean meal (SBM) diet. The latter difference was hypothesized to be due to variation in digestible amino acid (AA) levels among the diets. This study evaluated diets containing PBM formulated on equivalent total AA basis vs. an equivalent...

Flexibility of the genetic code with respect to DNA structure

MOTIVATION The primary function of DNA is to carry genetic information through the genetic code. DNA, however, contains a variety of other signals related, for instance, to reading frame, codon bias, pairwise codon bias, splice sites and transcription regulation, nucleosome positioning and DNA structure. Here we study the relationship between the genetic code and DNA structure and address two q...

Environmental perturbations lift the degeneracy of the genetic code to regulate protein levels in bacteria.

The genetic code underlying protein synthesis is a canonical example of a degenerate biological system. Degeneracies in physical and biological systems can be lifted by external perturbations, thus allowing degenerate systems to exhibit a wide range of behaviors. Here we show that the degeneracy of the genetic code is lifted by environmental perturbations to regulate protein levels in living ce...
