This novel type of chromatin is not arranged in Christmas tree-Iike configurations of densely packed lateral ribonucleoprotein (RNP) fibriIs but is characterized by a periodic alternating pattern of thick and thin regions which occur in clusters 01 some 10,000 repeats. Each thickened unit with an average length of 45 nm contains two c10sely spaced particles, the putative RNA polymerases, and each thickened unit is separated from the next one by a beaded chromatin spacer with a length of about 80 nm. This chromatin spacer contains on average two particles of approximately 14 nm in diameter, assumed to be nucleosomes. The thickened regions are interpreted to represent short transcriptional units containing approximately 130 base pairs of DNA which are separated from each other by nontranscribed spacers of 240-400 base pairs of DNA. The possibility is discussed that these transcriptional units represent 5S rRNA or tRNA genes.}, language = {en} } @article{Scheer1982, author = {Scheer, Ulrich}, title = {Biologische Objekte im Transmissions-Elektronenmikroskop (Teil 4): Spreitungstechniken}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-39652}, year = {1982}, abstract = {Visualizing nucleic acids (DNA, RNA), nucleoprotein complexes and chromatin requires the use of special electron microscopicspreading techniques. In part 4 (27 refs.), methods are outlined for spreading DNA and RNA molecules for electron microscopic observation, these methods using modifications of the basic protein film method developed by A. Kleinschmidt and R. K. Zahn (1959). Hybridization techniques that allow the observation of heteroduplexes formed between two DNA molecules or between DNA and RNA molecules are reviewed, with special emphasis being placed on the DNA-RNA hybrids as a tool for elucidating RNA splicing. Techniques for studying DNA-protein interactions without the use of a protein monolayer film are mentioned. Finally, the "Miller spreading technique" for visualizing the nucleosomal organization of eukaryotic chromatin as well as the transcription of genes is discribed and illustrated.}, language = {de} } @article{KreftHughes1982, author = {Kreft, J{\"u}rgen and Hughes, Colin}, title = {Cloning vectors derived from plasmids and phage of Bacillus}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-47014}, year = {1982}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {en} } @article{SchartlBarnekowBaueretal.1982, author = {Schartl, Manfred and Barnekow, A. and Bauer, H. and Anders, F.}, title = {Correlations of inheritance and expression between a tumor gene and the cellular homolog of the Rous sarcoma virus-transforming gene in Xiphophorus}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-61937}, year = {1982}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Physiologische Chemie}, language = {en} } @article{BarnekowSchartlAndersetal.1982, author = {Barnekow, A. and Schartl, Manfred and Anders, F. and Bauer, H.}, title = {Identification of a fish protein associated with a kinase activity and related to the Rous sarcoma virus transforming protein}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-61946}, year = {1982}, abstract = {No abstract available}, subject = {Physiologische Chemie}, language = {en} } @article{MorenoDiazdelaEspinaFrankeKrohneetal.1982, author = {Moreno-Diaz de la Espina, Susana and Franke, Werner W. and Krohne, Georg and Trendelenburg, Michael F. and Grund, Christine and Scheer, Ulrich}, title = {Medusoid fibril bodies: a novel type of nuclear filament of diameter 8 to 12 nm with periodic ultrastructure demonstrated in oocytes of Xenopus laevis}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-34116}, year = {1982}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {en} } @article{SchartlSchartlAnders1982, author = {Schartl, A. and Schartl, Manfred and Anders, F.}, title = {Promotion and regression of neoplasia by testosterone-promoted cell differentiation in Xiphophorus and Girardinus}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-86684}, year = {1982}, abstract = {No abstract available.}, subject = {Schwertk{\"a}rpfling}, language = {en} } @article{ScheerSommerville1982, author = {Scheer, Ulrich and Sommerville, John}, title = {Sizes of chromosome loops and hnRNA molecules in oocytes of amphibia of different genome sizes}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-33094}, year = {1982}, abstract = {The lengths of lampbrush chromosome loops and their tran scription units show a positive correlation with genome size in oocytes of amphibia with different C values.

Thus, our present knowledge of ATP synthase is derived from sturlies of the enzyme from different organisms, each affering specific experimental possibilities. In recent tim es, research on the H\(^+\) -conducting F0 part of the ATP synthase has been greatly stimulated by two developments in the Escherichio coli system. Firstly, the purification and reconstitution of the whole ATP synthase as weil as the proton conductor Fa from E. coli have been achieved. These functionally active preparations are well defined in terms of subunit composition, similar to the thermophilic enzyme from PS-3 studied by Kagawa's group.u Secondly, the genetics and the molecular cloning of the genes of all the F\(_0\) subunits from E. coli yielded information on the function of subunit polypeptides and essential amino acid residues. Furthermore, the amino acid sequence of hydrophobic F\(_0\) subunits, which are difficult to analyze by protein-chemical techniques, could be derived from the nucleotide sequence of the genes. These achievements, which shall be briefly summarized in the next part of this communication, provide the framework to study specific aspects of the structure and function of the F\(_0\) subunits.}, subject = {Biochemie}, language = {en} } @article{SchartlBarnekow1982, author = {Schartl, Manfred and Barnekow, Angelika}, title = {The expression in eukaryotes of a tyrosine kinase which is reactive with pp60v-src antibodies}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-86208}, year = {1982}, abstract = {All specimens of Eumetazoa and Parazoa, ranging from mammals, birds, teleosts, sharks, lampreys, amphioxus, insects, down to sponges showed the pp60c-src associated kinase activity, indicating that c-src, which is the cellular homologue of the oncogene v-src of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) is probably present in all multicellular animals. Protozoa and plants did not show pp60c-src: kinase activity. The degree of c-src expression depends on the taxonomic rank of the Eumetazoa tested, and is organ-specific with nervaus tissues displaying the highest kinase activities. In the central nervous system of mammals and birds we found a high c-src expression, and in that of the lampreys, amphioxus, and insects the lowest. Unexpectedly, total extracts of sponges showed an amount of pp60c-src kinase activity similar to that of brain cell extracts of mammals and birds. These findings suggest that pp60c-src is a phylogenetic old protein that might have evolved together with the multicellular organisation of Metazoa, and that might be of importance in proliferation and differentiation of nontransformed cells.}, subject = {Protein-Tyrosin-Kinasen}, language = {en} }
