چکیده
D ow nade From human language to birdsong and the chirps of insects, acoustic communication is based on amplitude and frequency modulation of sound signals. Whereas frequency processing starts at the level of the hearing organs, temporal features of the sound amplitude such as rhythms or pulse rates require processing by central auditory neurons. Besides several theoretical concepts, brain circuits that detect temporal features of a sound signal are poorly understood. We focused on acoustically communicating field crickets and show how five neurons in the brain of females form an auditory feature detector circuit for the pulse pattern of the male calling song. The processing is based on a coincidence detector mechanism that selectively responds when a direct neural response and an intrinsically delayed response to the sound pulses coincide. This circuit provides the basis for auditory mate recognition in field crickets and reveals a principal mechanism of sensory processing underlying the perception of temporal patterns. d fr

A mutant Escherichia coli primase defective in elongation of primer RNA chains.
Earlier we showed by affinity cross-linking of initiating substrates to Escherichia coli primase that one or more of the residues Lys211, Lys229, and Lys241 were involved in the catalytic center of the enzyme (A. A. Mustaev and G. N. Godson, J. Biol. Chem. 270:15711-15718, 1995). We now demonstrate by mutagenesis that only Lys241 but not Lys211 and Lys229 is part of the catalytic center. Primas...

ed sulfur radical cation (SETA)(S.-.S)+ was observed after pulse irradiation of solutions contain1 50K ing high concentration of SETA at pH 6. This reveals another interesting feature that indicates that hydroxysulfuranyl radicals (SETA)>S--OHare not converted efficiently into (SETA)(S..
