Carbon-13 shieldings and one-bond \(^{13}\)C-H coupling constants of bicydo[2.1.1]hexane, bicydo[2.l.l]hex- 2-ene, tricydo[3.1.1.0\(^{2.4}\)]heptane and benzvalene are presented and compared. to the data of related. compounds. H a bicydo[3.1.0]hexane system is part of a rigid skeleton, the cydopropane ring exerts spedfk: 'Y substituent eflects of two ldnds. In the case of the bicyclobexane boat form an upfield shift of the C-3 signal is observed and in tbe esse of the chair form a downfield shift of 15-20 ppm. Compared to the corresponding cydopentanes the double bond in strained cydopentenes causes downfield shifts of the C-4 absorption. 1bis eftect increases witb increasing strain, reaching 8 45.9 ppm maximum in benzvalene. Hence it is tbe only known bicydo[l.l.O]butane baving 8 reversed order of carbon shieldings. The downfield shifts are e:xplained by means of simple orbital interaction schemes.
The ultrastructure of autofluorescent, PAS-positive lipofuscin in Purkinje, granule, Golgi epithelial, basket and stellate, microglial and perivascular cells in the cerebellar cortex of senescent rats is described. The membrane- bounded pigment is composed ofthree elements: 1) electron-lucent homogeneaus droplets, 2) a granular matrix and 3) intensely osmiophilic patches. The proportians ofthese three components vary between cell types and one can grossly differentiate a neuronal and a gliallipofuscin. The lipofuscin granules of stellate and perivscular cells are different from lipofuscin of other cerebellar neurons and glia. lt can be concluded from these morphological observations that each cerebellar cell type has its distinct lipofuscin.
Administration of PGF 2IX (0.2-6.4 J.lg) into the lateral cerebral ventricle (i.c.v.) induced dosedependent increases in blood pressure , heart rate and body temperature in urethane-anaesthetised rats, but had no effect on these parameters when the same dose range was administered intravenously. Peripheral pretreatment with sodium meclofenamate (50 mg/kg s.c.) sltifted all the dose-response curves for PGF 2IX (i.c.v.) to the left, but indomethacin (50 mg/kg s.c.) did not significantly affect those changes. Central pretreatment with sodiurn meclofenamate or indomethacin (1.25 mg per rat i.c.v.) failed to modify significantly the effects of centrally administered PGF 2IX' The results support previous suggestions that PGF 2IX may participate in the central control of the cardiovascular and thermoregulatory systems, and also suggest that there may be differences in the sites and/or modes of action between sodiurn meclofenamate and indomethacin.

The crystal structure of the title compound, recrystallized from ethanol, was solved by means of X-ray diffraction methods and could be refined to an R-value of 0.050 with 2126 reflections observed. In contrast to its behaviour in benzene solution, where the compound is monomerie, in the crystalline state dimerie units are formed by intermoleeular Bi-S-interactions. The bismuth atoms are coordinated in form of a slightly distorted pentagonal pyramid with the free electron pair presumably directed opposite the apical C-atom.

Fractionation of nucleic acids and their fragments with polyacrylamide gel has been widely applied in sequencing of nucleic acids. Although the conditions of electrophoresis for this purpose have previously been suggested. we have found that polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at 5000 V (100 V/cm) is possible and effective. An apparatus consisting of a horizontal thermostated plate is used to remove the heat which was formed during the electrophoretic process. The techniques for loading samples on the horizontal thin gel and the procedure for high-voltage gel electrophoresis are described and illustrated by the fractionation of the spleen phosphodiesterase partial digest of tRNA¥~1 as well as by the RNA synthesis by RNA polymerase from E. coli with poly[d(A- T)j as template in the presence of "terminator," 3'-O-methyluridine 5'-triphosphate. This same technique was used for electrophoresis of oligonucleotides on acetylcellulose and was incorporated into a two-dimensional system which was demonstrated by fingerprinting of the guanylo-RNase digest of tRNAT'P from baker's yeast. In the third part of the article a simple technique for the electric trapping of nucleic acids or their fragments from a slab gel on a DEAE-paper sheet is presented.

Am Konzept der Axialsymmetrie multivariater Daten wird eine Methode entwickelt, mit der statistisch Cluster aus gleich interkorrelierenden Variablen gebildet werden können. Es wird eine heuristische Vorgehensweise empfohlen, die nicht wie die übliche deskriptive Clusteranalyse willkürliche Entscheidungen über Abbruchkriterien u.ä. verlangt. Die vorgeschlagene Methode ist insbesondere zur mediandichotomierte kontinuierliche Variablen geeignet. Werden echte Alternativdaten verwendet, resultieren Cluster, die zusätzlich zur gleichen Interkorrelation Variablen mit gleicher Schwierigkeit aufweisen. Das Vorgehen wird an einem Beispiel illustriert.

The desert isopod, Hemilepistus reaumuri, extremely common in the arid regions of North Africa and Asia Minor, depends upon the burrows it itself digs for survival during the hotter parts of the year. The dig-ging of new burrows is limited by chmatic conditions to a short period during the spring. Burrows must be constantly defendet - especially against roving eonspecifics. The decisive problem of a connnuous burrow defense is solved through cooperative behavior: the adult woodlice form monogamous pairs whose partners recognize one another individually. Here, questions on the binding of partners, especially the problem of the binding of male to female will be treated upon, along with questions on the evolution of monogamy, wherein the purely maternal families of Porcellio species will be taken as models for intermediäre stages. At first, males olHemilepistus are not permitted to copulate at all; later, for a relatively long period, they are only permitted incomplete copulations, the females alone have control over the partunal ecdysis; they alone determine the moment of final copulations. Under the thermal conditions prevalent during the season of pair formation, a female irreversibly induces a parturial ecdysis only when it has spent a minimum of sev-eral days in her own burrow with a specific male. At higher average temperatures, the number of females which undergo parturial ecdyses without these preconditions increases sharply. Males cannot greatly lnrlu-ence the willingness of females to reproduce with the investment they make in the digging of burrows; the factors deciding this are the male's presence and its role as guard. The first condition necessary for the genesis of monogamy might have been the evolution of a stncüy lo-cation-dependent copulatory behavior, which guaranteed the male exclusive mating pnveliges with the female whose location - the burrow - he acheived control of. A male must, under these conditions, serve guard duty in his own interest, and defend the burrow against competitors (Cf or 2) seeking an already-dug burrow. The decisive advantage for the female in the beginning of the development was probably that she could leave the burrow for extended feeding excursions, whereas alone it would have to either completely forego nourishment or, as is the case with the Porcellio species mentioned, must greatly restrict the spectrum of food that it can use (to that which is to be found only a short distance from the burrow and which can eas-ily be carried inside the burrow). This could be a disadvantage, especially during egg production. Necessary to the male's successful defense of the burrow is that he recognises his female. Studies of the Canary Island Porcellio species have shown over which pathways and under what selection pressures the recopinon of individuals, as is realized mHemilepistus, could have evolved. Females can bind males longer, the longer the period of their attraction is extended: Females olHemilepistus reaumuri have been proven to be al·ready att-ractive before they are ready to copulate and still remain attractive after they have copulated. The conse-quences of the last fact will be discussed. The question of why the males remain with the females after the parturial ecdysis will also be discussed: The great danger to the male's investment resulting from a tooi early abandoning, and the low probability of successfully finding another partner after a later abandomng should prevent a positive balance in the males' cost-effecriveness calculations.
Antibodies to calf thymus histone H2B were purified by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and injected into oocyte nuclei of Pleurodeles waltlii. As shown by indirect immunofluorescence these antibodies cross-reacted strongly with corresponding histones associated with lampbrush chromosomes. Shortly after injection the lateral loops of the chromosomes retracted into the chromomeres and by 3 h postinjection the 'lampbrush' appearance was completely lost and the chromosomes appeared in light-microscopic preparations as rod-like structures consisting of 10ngitudina11y coalesced chromomeres. In control oocytes injected with non-immune immunoglobulins or antibodies against a ubiquitous transcript-associated protein no morphological alterations of the lampbrush chromosomes could be observed. Electron microscopic spreads of chromosomes prepared at various times after injection of anti-H2B revealed a progressive loss of transcriptional complexes from the loop axes. Finally, higher-order chromatin configurations, like supranuc1eosomal globules (' superbeads ') or cable-like chromatin strands 50- 60 nm thick predominated, indicating complete transcriptional inactivation of a11 chromosomal regions. The results indicate that H2B antibodies react specifically with his tones associated with the transcribed DNA of lateral loops in their native state. The resulting antigenantibody complexes seem to inhibit progression of the R A polymerases along the template, thus causing the premature release of transcripts, a process analogous to the stripping effect of actinomycin D. The demonstration of histones associated with heavily transcribed regions, which are not compacted into nucleosomes but largely extended, supports the current concept that unfolding of nucleosomes to a110w transcription of the DNA does not involve dissociation of histones. In contrast, amplified ribosomal RNA genes are unaffected by injected HzB antibodies. This does not necessarily indicate absence of his tones from nucleolar chromatin, since we do not know whether it is accessible in vivo to antibodies or whether the histone antigenie determinants are masked by the presence of other proteins. The technique of injecting specific antibodies should be widely applicable when analysing the in vivo distribution of chromosomal components at the electron-microscopic level and when studying complex metabolie processes, like the cleavage and modification of RNA, by selective inhibition of defined enzymic steps.
Purified mitochondrial DNA (mitDNA) from ovaries ofXenopus lae vis was injected into the nuclei (germinal vesicles) of large viteUogenic oocytes of the same organism and examined by electron microscopy ofthe spread nuclear contents. Normally located nuclei of untreated oocytes as weil as peripherally translocated nuclei of centrifuged oocytes were used. In addition, oocyte nuclei isolated and incubated under liquid paraffin oil were injected with DNA. The integrity oftranscriptional structures of endogenous chromosomal (Iampbrush chromosomes) and extrachromosomal (nucleoli) genes of the injected nuclei was demonstrated. Microinjected mitDN A was identified as circles of chromatin exhibiting polynucleosome-like organization and a me an contour length of 2.6 J.Lm, corresponding to a compaction ratio of the mitDN A of about 2 : I. This DNA packing ratio is similar to that observed after preparation of various kinds of native chromatin in low salt buffers. The chromatin circles formed from injected mitDNA only very rarely exhibited lateral fibrils suggestive of transcriptional activity. These results suggest that purified mitDNA can be transformed to normally structured chromatin when exposed to oocyte nuclear contents but is rarely , if at all , transcribed in this form and in this environment.
