The effects of subsite interactions in the S2-S4 region [Schechter & Berger (1967) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 27, 157-162] of porcine pancreatic kallikrein (EC 3.4.21.8) on its catalytic efficiency have been investigated. Kinetic constants (Kcat, Km) have been determined for a series of seven extended N-aminoacyl-L-arginine methyl esters whose sequence is based on either the C-terminal sequ...

Sindbis virus was used as a probe to examine glycosylation processes in two different species of cultured cells. Parallel studies were carried out analyzing the carbohydrate added to Sindbis glycoprotein E2 when the virus was grown in chicken embryo cells and BHK cells. The Pronase glycopeptides of Sindbis glycoprotein E2 were purified by a combination of ion-exchange and gel filtration chromat...

We examined how a 50% Pavlovian partial reinforcement (PRF) schedule, versus a 100% continuous reinforcement (CRF) schedule, altered the asymptotic amount and distribution of focal and general search behavior in rats during 48-sec trials with and without a four-segment interfood clock (S1-S2-S3-S4-US). Under CRF, but not PRF, average asymptotic focal search (nosing in the feeder) increased acro...

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of chewing force on salivary stress markers (alpha-amylase activity, salivary cortisol level and secretory immunoglobulin A secretion rate) as indicators of mental stress. Participants comprised 20 healthy men. The first set of saliva specimens (S1) was collected at immediately after a 20-min rest to evaluate stress markers. As stress loadi...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to investigate the characteristics and evolution of sulfur (S) in mixtures of bituminous coal and sewage sludge (SS) and their chars during isothermal combustion. Five groups of mixtures with SS content of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 100%, were examined at different burn-off ratios (beta) of 0, 30%, 50%, 70% and 100%. The S in the coal mainly exist as the for...

BACKGROUND Short-gap digital nerve injuries are a common surgical problem, but the optimal treatment modality is unknown. A multicenter database was queried and analyzed to determine the outcomes of nerve gap reconstructions between 5 and 15 mm with processed nerve allograft. METHODS The current RANGER registry is designed to continuously monitor and compile injury, repair, safety, and outcom...
