Preliminary work on a crude in vitro system for glutamic-γ-semialdehyde
synthesis in Escherichia coli has been described. The
cell extract synthesis of GSA is inhibited by proline; other allosteric
characteristics observed include sigmoidal substrate variation and
inhibition plots of activity. The membrane fraction and a low molecular
weight compound in...
The presence in rat liver microsomes of an enzyme system
which demethylates N-methylhydrazines and azo compounds to formaldehyde
has been reported. Some of the compounds found to be
substrates were monomethylhydrazine, N-isopropyl-α-(2-methylhydrazino)-
p-toluamide and the azo derivative of the latter hydrazine. This
enzyme can be classified as a mixed function...
Compiled under the criteria: (1) statement of sources and faithfulness to them, (2) a true reflection of Indian cosmology, and (3) a written style that retains the spirit and poetry of the Indian's native manner of telling. Includes titles containing valuable introductory materials, bibliographies, motif indexes, and additional comparative notes,...
The presented study was undertaken to determine the
operational catabolic carbohydrate pathway(s) contributing
to the synthesis of the DNA of the actinophage for
Streptomyces griseus. The incorporation of glucose-6-¹⁴C versus glucose-1-¹⁴C was determined for the
deoxyribose and purine and pyrimidine bases of the phage
DNA. The specific activities of the...
The purpose of this investigation was to modify the procedure
of Bills, Khatri and Day for use in the development of a suitable
method for determining the quantitative distribution of the free fatty
acids (FFA) in normal, heated, and rancid milk and milk fractions
The method consists of extracting the...
The purpose of this research was to determine whether the transducing phage Pl picks up original bacterial chromosome segments and whether these segments are always the same size. The plan of approach was to grow the donor bacteria Escherichia coli C600 gal⁺ (galactose) in minimal media containing the heavy isotopes...
Milk, preheated at 82°C for 30 minutes, was heated to 146°C
for four seconds (UHT-treated) and cooled to 5°C in a tubular heat
exchanger. Immediately after heat treatment, 20 gallons of heated
milk were vacuum distilled at 30°C in a semi-continuous, reduced
pressure glass apparatus. Twenty gallons of non-heated milk...
Thermal oxidation of methyl oleate was studied over a range of temperatures from 50 C to 150 C for periods of time up to 30 min. Degradation was quantitatively followed by gas liquid chromatography (GLC) and liquid scintillation counting of the products of methyl oleate-U-14C heated under a stream of...
