RNA ligase has been highly purified in good yields from bacteriophage T4-infected Escherichia coli by a rapid and reproducible procedure. The enzyme is free of phosphomonoesterase and ribonuclease activities and is therefore suitable for the synthesis of oligoribonucleotides and for the labeling of the 3'-terminus of RNA. Greater than 90% of the protein in the enzyme preparation migrates as a single band on gradient polyacrylamide gels containing sodium dodecyl sulfate during electrophoresis. For use as a DNA synthesis reagent the enzyme may be reliably freed of deoxyribonuclease activity by an additional chromatographic procedure using a commercially avialable resin.

An enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for FOCMA has been developed. The assay uses alkaline phosphatase-conjugated rabbit anti-cat IgG as the second antibody and p-nitrophenyl phosphate as the substrate for the enzyme to detect cat FOCMA antibody bound to the target cells. In comparison with the indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) test, which was originally used for FOCMA assay, our results showed a good correlation between the two methods. The EIA gives a more objective measure of FOCMA reactivity than does IIF. FOCMA was successfully extracted from FOCMA-positive cell membranes by 0.5% Triton X-100 and further fractionated by ammonium sulfate. The FOCMA activity was assayed by IIF and EIA inhibition test. Most of the FOCMA activity was found in the fractions precipitated by 30% and 50% ammonium sulfate saturation.

The reovirus oligoadenylates exist in two states within the virion: free and bound to viral proteins. The latter class of oligonucleotides, after digestion with Penicillium (P1) nuclease, yields adenylic acid and an adenosine-containing compound that is positively charged at pH 1.7, 3.5, or 6.5. In a mixture of [35S]methionine- and [3H]adenosine-labeled reovirus disrupted by sodium dodecyl sulfate/urea, approximately 4% of the radioactivity in [35S]methionine-labeled proteins coelutes with [3H]adenosine-labeled material at a net charge of -1.5 when analyzed by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. This material migrates in sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gels with mu polypeptides and with a small protein, viii. Radioactivity is not released when the complex is boiled in buffer containing sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea or boiled in 80% dimethyl sulfoxide or when viral RNA is extracted with phenol. Digestion with Pronase converts the [3H]adenosine-labeled compound to oligomers of net charge -8 to -12 which contain nuclease P1- and alkaline phosphatase-sensitive adenylic acid residues as well as adenosine in a P1- and phosphatase-resistant linkage. These data indicate that reovirus contains structural proteins that are covalently bound to an oligoadenylate moiety.

A double-blind clinical trial with zinc sulfate, 0.2 g three times daily, and a placebo was performed in 30 patients with biopsy-proven alcoholic liver cirrhosis. The disease was in a stable phase, and none of the patients showed evidence of a decompensated liver function. Parameters of liver function, taste acuity, dark adaptation and of zinc and vitamin A metabolism were followed for six weeks. In the zinc-treated group of 16 patients, serum zinc rose from a normal mean value of 13.3 to 17.4 mumol/l, whereas the mean serum vitamin A level remained practically unaltered within the normal range, 1.89 at the entry and 1.83 mumol/l at the end of the study. Plasma prothrombin and serum alkaline phosphatase levels of the zinc group increased and serum bilirubin and serum carotene decreased significantly. The dark adaptation did not change, but the taste function was significantly improved during zinc treatment. The results indicate that zinc supplementation causes alleviation of certain abnormalities of cirrhotics, which deserves further attention.

The addition of 10 mM ammonium sulfate to sporulation medium noncoordinately blocked the increases in protease C, protease B, alpha-mannosidase, and 1,4-amyloglucosidase activities which occur during normal sporulation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but had only a minor effect on the 10-fold increase in alkaline phosphatase activity.

Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase has been reversibly immobilized on Sepharose CL-4B through two different methods, both based on a disulfide linkage, under conditions selected to favour the coupling of the enzyme to the solid support through one covalent linkage. The quaternary structure of the reversibly immobilized subunit, produced by dissociation of the matrix-bound dimer, was examined by cross-linking with the bifunctional reagent dimethyl suberimidate. Following release from the solid support, the protein was analysed by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis demonstrating the presence of a sufficient amount of dimeric structures in the immobilized subunit preparation to account for all the enzyme activity observed in this sample. These results suggest that the subunit of alkaline phosphatase may be catalytically inactive. This approach to studying the quaternary structure of immobilized subunit derivatives offers the opportunity to directly determine the homogeneity and structure of matrix-bound 'monomer' preparations and is particularly useful in determining if low levels of catalytic activity observed in some immobilized subunit populations are due to the presence of contaminating oligomeric structures.

1. The proteins of the intestinal microvillus membrane have been studied during post-natal development in the rat (days 12--37). 2. In suckling animals (up to age 20 days), the majority of alkaline phosphatase, glucoamylase and lactase activities in the distal half of the intestine were located in the supernatant fraction (100000 X g, 60 min). These enzymes were attached to the membrane from the proximal intestine at all ages. 3. Alkaline phosphatase, maltase and lactase activities in the supernatant fractions chromatographed in Sephadex G-200 in positions similar to the corresponding membrane enzyme. Corresponding activities for lysosomal counter-parts of maltase and lactase present in the supernatant fraction chromatographed differently. Moreover, pH optimum of the soluble enzymes was 9.2 for phosphatase and 5.5--6.0 for glycoamylase and lactase. The soluble lactase and alkaline phosphatase were inhibited minimally by p-chloromercuribenzoate, and sodium fluoride respectively. L-Phenylalanine (20 mM) did inhibit the soluble phosphatase by 90%. Thus, the soluble enzymes are not mainly of the lysosomal origin, but have characteristics of membrane-bound enzymes. 4. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed 18 protein bands which were present in adult membranes. Two other proteins were unique for membranes of distal intestine in suckling rats. The proteins corresponding to known enzyme activity changed as expected with age (e.g. sucrase, maltase increased, lactase decreased). Most of the other proteins were also altered in amount during development. Thus, the changes in the microvillus membrane during development in the rat are not limited to specific enzymes.

Human pancreatic DNase I was purified extensively from duodenal juice of healthy subjects by a procedure including ammonium sulfate fractionation, ethanol fractionation, phosphocellulose fractionation, isoelectric focusing, and gel filtration. The final preparation was free of DNase II, pancreatic RNase, alkaline phosphatase, and protease. The enzyme had a molecular weight of approximately 30,000, as determined by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, and showed maximum activity at pH 7.2-7.6. It required divalent cations for activity, and caused single-strand breaks by endonucleolytic attack on double- as well as single-stranded DNA molecules. The enzyme was inhibited by actin and bovine pancreatic DNase I antibody.

Several analogs of lysolecithin were found to solubilize human erythrocyte ghosts comparably or even better than other detergents. Derivatives with aliphatic chains of 12 to 14 carbons were most effective. The phosphorylcholine detergents apparently possess low protein-denaturing properties, since they, for the first time, allowed the solubilization of enzymatically active acyl-CoA:lysolecithin acyltransferase from thymocyte plasma membranes. The solubilized enzyme was not sedimented at 177,000 x g for 60 min and penetrated into Sepharose 6B gels. Low detergent concentration resulted in a selective extraction of the acyltransferase (about 70%) as compared to alkaline phosphatase, nucleotide pyrophosphatase, gamma-glutamyltransferase or Mg2+-ATPase (30 to 40%). The selectivity was reflected in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis patterns of soluble and sedimentable membrane fractions; three bands of approximately 53, 84, and 94 x 10(3) daltons were enriched in the supernatants, whereas one band of about 68 x 10(3) daltons was concentrated in the pellet. The preferential extraction of acyltransferase may be related to particularly high affinity of lysolecithin analogs for this enzyme, which at higher concentrations was competitively inhibited by these detergents. The inhibitor constants ranged from 1400 micron for the C10 analog (ET-10-H) to 80 micron for the compound with 16 carbons (ET-16-H) per aliphatic chain.

Alkaline phosphatases, which had a unique electrophoretic mobility on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, were found in hepatic tissue of a patient with liver cirrhosis. Enzymic and immunological properties of the enzymes examined on electropherogram were similar to those of a fetal intestinal-type alkaline phosphatase in hepatoma with respect to sensitivity to amino acids, heat stability, sensitivity to sodium dodecyl sulfate, and reactivity to anti-intestinal alkaline phosphatase antiserum. The enzymes seem to be a variant of a fetal intestinal alkaline phosphatase. The significance of occurrence of the enzymes in cirrhotic liver is discussed.
