Isolation and partial characterization of ovine lactoferrin

Summary Ovine lactoferrin was isolated by ammonium sulfate precipitation and ion exchange chromatography. Comparative analyses were performed with the bovine protein. Differences in the amino acid compositions and the tertiary structure of the proteins were observed.Acknowledgments. We would like to thank Dr M. Casey for his interest in this work, Dr P. Lavanchy for performing the amino acid analyses and M.F. Baumann for providing us with ewe milk.     

斜多项式环R[x,σ]是p.q-Baer环的充分条件

设σ是环R的一个自同构 .证明了如果R是σ 右p q Baer环 ,并且Sσl 的任意元e满足 :对任意的r∈R及任意非负整数i,erσ-i(e) =rσ-i(e) ;对任意的r∈R ,若re=0 ,则rσ(e) =0 ,那么环R的斜多项式扩张R[x ,σ]是右p q Baer环     

Creatine phosphate inhibition of heart 5'-nucleotidase appears due to contaminants

Creatine phosphate does not inhibit 5'-nucleotidase preparations from rat, dog or guinea-pig hearts. Previously reported inhibitory effects must have been due to contaminants present in some commercial preparations of creatine phosphate.     

Preparation of phenotypes of horse serum transferrins by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography

Résumé Les bandes des différents phénotypes de transferrines (Tf), identifiées par amido-électrophorèse, ont été purifiées par filtration sur gel et chromatographie échangeuse d'ions. Des anticorps de lapin ont été préparés contre plusieurs de ces phénotypes.     

Landscape of transcription in human cells

Eukaryotic cells make many types of primary and processed RNAs that are found either in specific subcellular compartments or throughout the cells. A complete catalogue of these RNAs is not yet available and their characteristic subcellular localizations are also poorly understood. Because RNA represents the direct output of the genetic information encoded by genomes and a significant proportion of a cell's regulatory capabilities are focused on its synthesis, processing, transport, modification and translation, the generation of such a catalogue is crucial for understanding genome function. Here we report evidence that three-quarters of the human genome is capable of being transcribed, as well as observations about the range and levels of expression, localization, processing fates, regulatory regions and modifications of almost all currently annotated and thousands of previously unannotated RNAs. These observations, taken together, prompt a redefinition of the concept of a gene.
