Growth of cultured rat hepatoma cells in the presence of 5-bromodeoxyuridine results in a rapid inhibition of the synthesis of adrenal steroid-inducible tyrosine aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.5) and slower decreases in the concentrations of lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27), alcohol dehydrogenase (EC.1.1.1.1), and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49). During the same period, neither overall cell growth nor the concentrations of malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37), acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2), or alanine aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.2) were significantly decreased by the base analog. Addition of thymidine to the growth medium rapidly counteracts the inhibition of tyrosine aminotransferase synthesis but restores the normal concentrations of lactate-, alcohol-, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases much more slowly. Growth of the cells for only one generation in the presence of bromodeoxyuridine, followed by the addition of thymidine, produces transient decreases in the concentrations of the three "late-responding" dehydrogenases, beginning 2-3 generations after exposure to the analog.It is concluded that the selective inhibitory effects of the analog could result from a mechanism in which bromodeoxyuridine is uniformly incorporated into cellular DNA, but inhibits the transcription of only certain genes into messenger RNA. A mathematical model is derived to account for the observed differences in the kinetics of the inhibition of synthesis of the gene products that are sensitive to the analog.

Spontaneous mutation rates at ten allozyme loci on chromosomes II and III of Drosophila melanogaster were studied. Over the three and a half years study, one alpha-GPD mutation and two different IDH mutations were obtained. The alpha-GPD mutation was inherited in the Mendelian fashion, as expected. The two IDH mutations were peculiar in that the band of new types appeared only in females. In males, only the original bands were stained, and the positions where mutant alleles' bands should be present were blank. Both IDH mutant homozygotes appeared as null allele homozygotes, while in females clear-cut single bands were present.-The rates of spontaneous mutation varied greatly. Eight loci studied (MDH, ADH, EST-6, APH, EST-C, ODH, XDH, AO) did not give any germ-line mutation. The average germ-line mutation rate over all ten loci was estimated at 4.5 x 10(-6). This rate is considerably smaller than that for sex-linked recessive visible mutations (Muller, Valencia and Valencia 1950), but it is somewhat less than autosomal recessive visible mutations (Glass and Ritterhoff 1956).

1. Aerobically grown yeast having a high activity of glyoxylate-cycle, citric acid-cycle and electron-transport enzymes was transferred to a medium containing 10% glucose. After a lag phase of 30min. the yeast grew exponentially with a mean generation time of 94min. 2. The enzymes malate dehydrogenase, isocitrate lyase, succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase lost 45%, 17%, 27% and 46% of their activity respectively during the lag phase. 3. When growth commenced pyruvate kinase, pyruvate decarboxylase, alcohol dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP(+)-linked) and NADPH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase increased in activity, whereas aconitase, isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)- and NADP(+)-linked), alpha-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, fumarase, malate dehydrogenase, succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, NADH oxidase, NADPH oxidase, cytochrome c oxidase, glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)-linked), glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase, isocitrate lyase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase decreased. 4. During the early stages of growth the loss of activity of aconitase, alpha-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, fumarase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase could be accounted for by dilution by cell division. The lower rate of loss of activity of isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)- and NADP(+)-linked), glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)-linked), glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase, NADPH oxidase and cytochrome c oxidase implies their continued synthesis, whereas the higher rate of loss of activity of malate dehydrogenase, isocitrate lyase, succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and NADH oxidase means that these enzymes were actively removed. 5. The mechanisms of selective removal of enzyme activity and the control of the residual metabolic pathways are discussed.

Triazine dyes, bound to polyethylene glycol, have been used to influence the partition of some enzymes within a dextran-polyethylene glycol-water two-phase system. The enzymes, present in a protein extract from baker's yeast, included glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase, 3-phospho-glycerate kinase and alcohol dehydrogenase. The partition coefficients of the enzymes could be changed by a factor of 10-500 in favour of the polyethylene glycol-rich phase, while the partition of bulk protein was much less affected. The influence of the concentration of polymer-bound dye and phase-forming polymers, temperature, pH, kind and concentration of salt and the presence of nucleotides on this affinity partitioning effect was studied. The extraction was effective even at high concentrations of dye and protein (40 g/l). A partial purification (32-fold) of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase was carried out by an extraction in five steps.

Strains of different origins belonging to the two species of fungi imperfecti Cylindrocarpon ianothele and Calcarisporium arbuscula exhibit difference in their morphological or physiological appearances. We have attempted to determine if these variabilities could also be observed at the level of other phenotypic markers, the enzymes glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase, octanol dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase. Isozymes were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and demonstrated isozyme variability as a function of growth and physiological states of a given strain. At the same state of development, the different strains exhibited highly heterogeneous isozyme groups which appear difficult to use for taxonomic purposes.

Culture forms of bat-trypanosomes of the species T. dionisii, T. vespertilionis and T.c. marinkellei were compared isoenzymatically by isoelectrofocusing. The enzymes tested were: nonspecific esterase (NSE, E.C.3.1.1.), phosphoglucomutase (PGM, E.C. 2.7.5.1), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD, E.C. 1.1.1.49), glucosephosphate isomerase (GPI, E.C. 5.3.1.9), malate dehydrogenase (MDH, E.C. 1.1.1.37), alcohol dehydrogenase (NADP+) (ADH, E.C. 1.1.1.2). Their enzyme types were related to those of T. cruzi. The comparison of enzyme patterns of the six enzymes has shown that each species was characterized by species-specific enzyme profiles. Among the stocks of the European species, T. dionisii, and T. vespertilionis, variations of the enzyme patterns of PGM, G-6-PD and GPI suggesting that the final status of this subspecies is probably not yet established. In relation to T. cruzi it has been found that T. dionisii showed identical enzyme profiles with group II of T. cruzi. For T. vespertilionis no enzyme types identical with T. cruzi were detectable. T.c. marinkellei showed only identical enzyme patterns to T. cruzi-group I by the enzymes NSE and GPI.

A biochemical study has been made of the effects of low doses of alpha chlorohydrin on all the glycolytic enzymes and two key enzymes of phosphogluconate pathway i.e. glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGDH) of rat testis and epididymis. All the glycolytic enzymes of testis and epididymis are decreased after treatment with alpha chlorohydrin. G-6-PDH and 6-PGDH are decreased only in epididymis and not in the testis. LDH, ADH and glucose-6-phosphatase were also studied histochemically to show that the drug affects the glycolytic enzymes of epididymal cells and various testicular cell types of testis. Possible significance of these results is discussed.

The effect of 1-butanesulfonic acid sodium salt and sodium dodecyl sulfate on the activity of highly purified and crystalline enzymes with marked differences in structure and function has been studied. The enzymes were: alcohol dehydrogenase; lactate dehydrogenase; malate dehydrogenase; isocitrate dehydrogenase; glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase; lipase; alkaline phosphatase. While 1-butanesulfonic acid sodium salt, at the studied concentrations, resulted generally inactive, sodium dedecyl sulfate showed a selective inhibitory effect, always under the critical micellar concentration. A kinetic analysis of the inhibitory action was also carried out.

The spectra and activities of isozymes of hexokinase and alcohol dehydrogenase (enzymes that catalyse glucose and ethanol assimilation), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (the key enzyme of the pentose phosphate shunt) and malate dehydrogenase (an enzyme of the tricarboxylic acid cycle) were comparatively studied in Pichia pinus haploid (MH4) and autodiploid (D4) strains. Differences in the qualitative composition of the isoenzyme spectra and activities suggest that the intensity and the role of the studied metabolic pathways and cycles differ between the haploid and autodiploid strains of Pichia pinus.

Culture forms of 12 Chilean and 9 Bolivian Trypanosoma cruzi stocks were compared isoenzymatically by the following enzymes: non-specific esterase, phosphoglucomutase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glucosephosphate isomerase, and alcohol dehydrogenase. On the basis of the electrophoretic mobility of these enzymes the stocks were classified into two main groups. Ten Chilean stocks were characterized as group II; two stocks showed enzyme patterns of group I. In contrast, five Bolivian stocks were classified as belonging to group I, the other four to group II. The results show that the two groups of T. cruzi overlap in Triatoma infestans suggesting that both groups of T. cruzi are infective for man. The classification of stocks into two groups is discussed in the light of published results of Brazilian T. cruzi stocks. A strong association of groups with the transmission cycles as it seems to be in Brazil does not exist in Chile and Bolivia.
