The genus Acinetobacter is composed of ubiquitous, generally nonpathogen environmental bacteria. Interest concerning these microorganisms has increased during the last 30 years, because some strains, belonging to the so-called A. baumannii-A. calcoaceticus complex, have been implicated in some severe pathological states in debilitated and hospitalized patients. The involvement of lipopolysaccha...

The effect of hand muscle mechanical vibration on the somatosensory potential (SEP) evoked by median nerve stimulation, was investigated in 10 healthy subjects. A marked decrease in the amplitude of the N17, N20 and P25 components of the cerebral SEP was observed, while the S11 and S13 components of the cervical response did not change. The amplitude reduction of the SEP components was larger w...

We have isolated a mutant form of Escherichia coli ribosomal protein S4. This mutant is temperature sensitive and apparently fails to autogenously regulate the gene products of the alpha operon, which consists of the genes for proteins S13, S11, S4, L17, and the alpha subunit of RNA polymerase (1). We have shown that this mutation results in the production of an S4 protein with a molecular weig...

Rat liver 5 S and 5.8 S rRNAs were oxidized with periodate and the 3' termini were coupled to Sepharose 4B through an adipic acid dihydrazide spacer. Ribosomal proteins were passed through the nucleic acid affinity columns to form ribonucleoprotein complexes containing the nucleic acid and the proteins that bind to it (5 S . L6, L7, L19; and 5.8 S . L6, L19, S9, S13). Pure isoaccepting species ...
