301. Wild-type spectrin domains of the same stability vary kinetically.

Abstract

The article reports a study related to wild-type spectrin domains which have the same stability but very different kinetic properties. According to researchers in England, the study of proteins with the same architecture, but different sequence has proven to be a valuable tool in the protein folding field. As a prelude to studies on the folding mechanism of spectrin domains they present the kinetic characterisation of the wild-type forms of the 15th, 16th, and 17th domains of chicken brain alpha-spectrin. They show that the proteins all behave in a two-state manner, with different kinetic properties, said K.A. Scott and colleagues, Cambridge University.

302. Bradykinin receptors analyzed, upregulation of expression revealed.

Abstract

The article cites a study by researchers V. Vellani and colleagues, which reports that functional bradykinin (BK) B1 receptors are expressed in nociceptive neurones and are upregulated by the neurotrophin glial cell line derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF). The researchers show that specific B1 receptor activation causes translocation of the e isoform of protein kinase C (PKC-epsilon) to the membrane of a small fraction of freshly isolated sensory neurons from rats and mice. Vellani and colleagues published their study in the "Journal of Physiology."

Abstract

This summer issue highlights the women's graduation at the Macdonald Institute. Beginning this issue is a tribute to the late Professor Squirrell. Agricultural articles pertain to the genetics of dairy cattle breeding and observations on the fig. Other articles address the memorial gardens dedicated to leading Canadian agriculturalists and equating an animal's metabolism to an engine. Student contributions include articles on the differences in university systems between English and Canada, and a travel diary regarding the Yukon. The literary section addresses the Canadian painting loan collection from the National Gallery. Campus news pertains to the conferences held on campus, the acquisition of a champion Shorthorn bull, and a short story about the jinx of a cat on a ship. The Macdonald Institute column is devoted to the women's examination results and commencement exercises. Alumni news reports on the June alumni reunions on campus and alumni updates. Of interest is the initiation of an O. A. C. father's and son club to recognize the subsequent generations of O. A. C. alumni. Professor W.
