It has been reported that cyanide inactivates the succinate dehydrogenase activity of HMP toward cytochrome c, oxygen, methylene blue and DCIP. In the present study, it was found that cyanide
also solubilizes the SDH from HMP, this is reflected by the extent
of solubilization of acid nonextractable flavin in the...
Plant tissues contain a wide variety of phenolic compounds,
frequently in high concentration. Both non-covalent association of
intact and oxidized phenols and covalent linkage of oxidized phenols
to protein occur. Such interactions can have important biochemical
and nutritional significance.
A model system approach was used to identify and quantitate
amino...
This is a fundamental study of the mechanism of protein particle
removal during flow through sandy soil. Mathematical models for
diffusion-adsorption and diffusion-convection-adsorption processes
were developed and compared with experimental data. An attempt was
made to calculate the distance over which the adsorption forces act.
The differential equation for the...
Histones are presumed to be of chromosomal origin and provide
both structural and functional elements for chromatin. In like
manner the ribosomal proteins are of ribosomal origin and have
analogous roles. Considerable controversy over their cellular roles
exists because of the inability to compare directly both groups of
proteins. In...
The purposes for which the fractionation of proteins are
carried out are quite varied and manyfold. However, one of the
more important reasons is that of determining the nature and the
extent of autolysis or proteolysis on the bovine muscle proteins
during post mortem aging. Hence, the development of a...
The relationship of temperature and salinity to protein synthesis
was determined for cells of Vibrio marinus, MP-1. Protein synthesis
was measured by the incorporation of radioactive proline into
hot trichloroacetic acid precipitable material. At all salinities protein
synthesis occurred at 15°C and 20°C but not at 25°C. The critical
temperature...
Ion exchange chromatography methods which have been
developed in recent years appear to offer a sensitive technique that
can be utilized very advantageously in studies on various proteins
and their properties. The application of such a procedure for the
successful fractionation of bovine sarcoplasmic proteins should stimulate
interest and research...
