Ovarian cycle in albino rats was applied to ascertain the problem of the relationship between the salivary and endocrine glands, and also of the extent of participation of individual components of the salivary glands with different functional orientation in the endocrine regulation of individual components of the salivary glands. The content of protein, mucopolysaccharides, DNA, and RNA, the activity of NAD- and NADP-diaphorase, alkaline phosphatase, malate and isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-leucine-aminopeptidase was studied. Cytospectrophotometric analysis showed that synchronous changes in the activity of the enzymes under study occurred in all the portions of the salivary glands, depending on the ovarian cycle phases. Of the four successive phases of the cycle the greatest activity of the enzymes and of the protein and mucopolysaccharide content was noted during the proestrus and metaestrus. Different metabolic processes were observed in the salivary ducts in comparison with other parts of the gland; this was apparently connected with peculiarities of the secretion and hormone production.

We sought to investigate enzyme response appearing subsequent to sub-conjunctival administration of the Coxsackie B3 virus. This virus stimulates oxidising enzymes, diaphorase and leucin aminopeptidase, dihydrofolate reductase, and adenosinetriphosphatase. The most typical enzyme changes are been in the chorion of the conjunctival mucose and the corneal parenchyma there by showing that the virus, triggers local immune defence mechanisms. The appearance of highly active Langerhans cells around Bowman membrane and corneal tissue proves that the virus injected greatly stimulates the mobilisation of local immune mechanisms.

An enzyme analysis of diploid and triploid Paragonimus westermani was conducted using starch gel electrophoresis. In total, 16 enzymes, probably encoded by 18 loci, were studied for 3 populations of the diploid form sampled from 2 localities, and 4 populations of the triploid form from 4 localities. Comparison of the enzymes of the triploid and the diploid digeneans showed 5 different patterns: diaphorase (EC 1.6.2.2), glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (EC 2.6.1.1), hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.1), leucylglycylglycine aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.1.3), and phosphoglucomutase (EC 2.7.5.1). On the basis of the numbers of bands and their patterns, all individuals of the triploid are probably heterozygous at each of these 5 loci and homozygous at the remaining 13 loci. The occurrence of fixed heterozygotes found in triploid populations cannot be easily explained by only a single mutation. It is suggested that the variability may have been introduced by hybridization with a different sub-species or a closely related species and may, thus, have been maintained since the time of the origin of triploids.

Cells of Streptococcus mitis ATCC 903 were converted to stable protoplasts by the cell wall-degrading M-1 enzyme of the mutanolysin complex isolated from Streptomyces globisporus. Over 90% of total glucokinase (EC 2.7.1.2), aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.1), and dextranglucosidase (EC 3.2.1.70) was recovered in the cytoplasmic fraction, whereas over 20% of total invertase (beta-fructofuranosidase: EC 3.2.1.26) was released during protoplast formation. ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3). chymotrypsin-like protease (EC 3.4.21.1), arginine aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.6), and lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) were detected in Triton X-100 extracts of the cytoplasmic membrane fraction by crossed immunoelectrophoresis in combination with enzyme-staining procedures. By these methods, NADH dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3), aminopeptidase, and lactate dehydrogenase were detected in the cytoplasmic fraction. Aminopeptidases in the cytoplasmic fraction differed from this activity in the membrane fractions in electrophoretic mobility and substrate specificity.
