Abstract
The present study describes the isolation of a cDNA coding for a carrot protein of 450 amino acids that contains WD repeats (DcWD1) and is homologous to Drosophila melanogaster fizzy protein, mammalian p55CDC and yeast Cdc20p. As for the known related proteins, sequence conservation concerned the majority of the polypeptide except the far N-terminus. Results of Southern blot analysis with genomic DNA under high stringency conditions showed the occurrence of a single gene. Northern blot analyses revealed the accumulation of DcWD1 mRNA in all tested tissues (leaves, petioles and hypocotyls, apical meristems, roots and suspension cultured cells), though at a different extent. Lack of induction of relevant transcripts in proliferating auxin-stimulated hypocotyls suggests a mode of expression not strictly related to the cell proliferation.

Abstract
The active site of influenza virus neuraminidase (NA) is formed by 11 universally conserved residues. A guanidino group incorporated into two unrelated NA inhibitors was previously reported to occupy different negatively charged sites in the NA active site, A new inhibitor containing two guanidino groups was synthesized in order to utilize both sites in an attempt to acquire a combined increase in affinity. The X-ray crystal structures of the complexes show that the expected increase in affinity could not be achieved even though the added guanidino group binds to the negatively charged site as designed. This suggests that the ligand affinity to the target protein is contributed both from ligand-protein interactions and solvation/conformation energy of the ligand.

Abstract
Matrix protein (M1) of influenza virus is a bifunctional protein that mediates the encapsidation of RNA-nucleoprotein cores into the membrane envelope. It is therefore required that M1 binds both membrane and RNA simultaneously. The X-ray crystal structure of the N-terminal portion of type A influenza virus M1-amino acid residues 2-158-has been determined at 2.08 A resolution at pH 4.0. The protein forms a dimer. A highly positively charged region on the dimer surface is suitably positioned to bind RNA while the hydrophobic surface opposite the RNA binding region may be involved in interactions with the membrane. The membrane-binding hydrophobic surface could be buried or exposed after a conformational change.

Abstract
The analysis of clones obtained by rapid amplification of the 5' end and by primer extension of the mRNA for carrot bifunctional dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase showed transcripts of differing lengths that belonged to two sub-populations. The longer transcripts were found to contain a translation start site 147 nt upstream of, and in frame with, the one which is present in the shorter transcripts. The ORF that begins at this ATG codes for a protein of 64714 Da, which is much larger than mature DHFR-TS subunit. The N-terminus region of this polypeptide shows features typical of plant transit peptides. Immunogold labelling studies and immunorecognition of the plastid-containing sub-cellular fraction suggested a plastidial localisation of the bifunctional protein. Although plant cells were shown to contain folate pools in plastids, in mitochondria and in the cytosol, few enzymes of the folate pathway have been associated with any sub-cellular compartment. Thus, this is the first indication for the presence of an enzyme of the folate biosynthetic pathway in plastids. The longer transcripts revealed the presence of a TC microsatellite at the 5'-untranslated end.

Abstract
DNA topoisomerase I is an enzyme involved in several processes related to DNA metabolism. Despite the physiological importance, the regulation of top1 gene expression has not yet been investigated in plants. In order to monitor the possible correlation between levels of top1 transcripts and the proliferative state of the cell, two partially overlapping cDNAs encoding DNA topoisomerase I from Daucus carota have been isolated from a poly(A)(+)-primed library, using an Arabidopsis thaliana probe, and from a cDNA library spanning the 5' region of the top1 transcript, which was constructed using an antisense specific oligonucleotide. The top1 nucleotide sequence encoded an open reading frame of 2370 bp, predicting a protein of 90 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence showed a similarity of 51% with A. thaliana, 41% with S. cerevisiae, 40% with S. pombe and 31% with H. sapiens, respectively. Southern blot analysis, performed under moderate stringency conditions, showed the presence of a single-copy gene. Evaluation of the top1 mRNA steady-state level revealed, besides a constitutive expression in vegetative carrot tissues, an induced expression related to cell proliferation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcriptional regulation in the liver plays a critical role in mediating the acute phase response to injury. The molecular mechanisms driving these transcriptional events, however, are poorly defined in vivo. The liver-specific transcription factor hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1 binds to the 5' upstream region of many acute phase genes. To explore the connection between injury and transcriptional regulatory mechanisms, we investigated the effect of injury on HNF-1 binding activity. METHODS Liver nuclear extracts were prepared from animals after burn or anesthetized sham burn injury. HNF-1 binding activity, affinity, and off rate were assessed by electrophoretic mobility shift analysis. RESULTS HNF-1 binding activity decreased by 28% 1 1/2 hours after injury. The dissociation constant for HNF-1 increased from 0.6 nm to 11.8 nm at 1 1/2 hours after burn injury partly because of an increase in off rate for the HNF-1: DNA complex. CONCLUSIONS Burn injury leads to a significant decrease in HNF-1 binding activity as a result of decreased affinity of HNF-1 for DNA. These injury-induced alterations in binding of a liver-specific transcription factor for its DNA binding site represent a mechanism for rapidly modulating acute phase gene transcription in vivo.

Abstract
GDVII is a highly virulent Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) which causes acute encephalitis in mice, while the BeAn and DA strains are the less virulent TMEV which cause chronic demyelinating disease in the central nervous system as a result of persistent infection. Purified GDVII virus isolated from infected BHK-21 cells was crystallized and its structure was determined to 3.5-A resolution by X-ray crystallography. In contrast to other TMEV structures, the VP1 C-terminus of GDVII virus has an ordered conformation that forms a hook over the VP3 knob near the threefold axis. Comparisons with the atomic structures of the less virulent BeAn and DA viruses revealed significant structural variations in a major site (cluster B) on the protruding surface loop puff B of VP2. Puff B is located near the VP3 GH loop region which is structurally analogous to the host receptor attachment site of the major serogroup of human rhinoviruses. Mutations at residue 1101 in VP1 and residue 2141 in VP2, which are also near the VP3 GH loop and adjacent to cluster B, were previously shown to influence persistence of DA virus. These observations indicate that the characteristic interaction with the host receptor through these sites may potentially alter TMEV persistence.

Abstract
PURPOSE This article reports the results of treatment of 7 histologic types of minor salivary gland carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS Of 256 cases, local excision was used in 194, extended excision in 62, excision accompanied by neck dissection in 98, and surgery with adjunctive radiation therapy or chemotherapy in 101. Forty-five of the 98 neck dissection cases had cervical node metastases. RESULTS Survival rates were analyzed for 233 patients. The 3-year survival rate was (167 of 215) (77.67%), the 5-year survival rate was 134 of 187 (71.76%), and the 10-year survival rate was 79 of 113 (69.91%). CONCLUSIONS These data confirm that surgery is still the mode of choice in the treatment of minor salivary gland carcinoma, but a combination with radiation therapy or chemotherapy is advisable in some patients.

Abstract
Neuraminidase (NA) is one of the two major surface antigens of influenza virus. It plays an indispensable role in the release and spread of progeny virus particles during infection. NA inhibitors reduce virus infection in animals. To improve the clinical efficacy of NA inhibitors, we have begun the design of non-carbohydrate inhibitors based on the active site structure of NA. The approach is an iterative process of ligand modeling and electrostatic calculations followed by chemical synthesis of compounds, biological testing, and NA-inhibitor complex structure determination by X-ray crystallography. A strategy has been developed to calculate Ki for newly designed inhibitors. The calculations using the DelPhi program were performed for carbohydrate inhibitors and three preliminary benzoic acid inhibitors of neuraminidase (BANA) that have been synthesized and shown to bind to the active site of NA in the crystal structure. The calculated Kis of these inhibitors have an enlightening agreement with their in vitro biological activities. This demonstrates that the calculations produce informative results on the affinity of modeled inhibitors. GRID maps were also calculated and several pockets were identified for accepting possible new ligands. The calculated Kis for newly designed ligands suggest that these potential compounds will have high inhibitory activities.

Abstract
Two density populations of full-size feline calicivirus (FCV), the intact infectious particles (P(H)) and the empty capsids (P(L)), have been crystallized using the hanging-drop method. Exposed to high-intensity synchrotron radiation, P(H) and P(L) crystals were shown to diffract X-rays to about 3.0 and 5.5 A resolution, respectively. The P(H) crystal belongs to an orthorhombic crystal system with unit-cell dimensions a = 889.0, b = 995.0, c = 436.6 A. Based on the V(M) value (3.4 A(3) Da(-l)), it was estimated that one crystallographic asymmetric unit of P(H) crystals contains the unique content of an entire virus particle, not necessarily from the same particle. This implies the presence of 60-fold non-crystallographic redundancy. The particle orientation was obtained from a locked rotation function.

Abstract
Influenza virus sialidase is a surface enzyme that is essential for infection of the virus. The catalytic site is highly conserved among all known influenza variants, suggesting that this protein is a suitable target for drug intervention. The most potent known inhibitors are analogs of 2-deoxy-2,3-didehydro-N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac2en), particularly the 4-guanidino derivative (4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en). We utilized the benzene ring of 4-(N-acetylamino)benzoic acids as a cyclic template to substitute for the dihydropyran ring of Neu5Ac2en. In this study several 3-(N-acylamino) derivatives were prepared as potential replacements for the glycerol side chain of Neu5Ac2en, and some were found to interact with the same binding subsite of sialidase. Of greater significance was the observation that the 3-guanidinobenzoic acid derivative (equivalent to the 4-guanidino grouping of 4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en), the most potent benzoic acid inhibitor of influenza sialidase thus far identified (IC50 = 10 microM), occupied the glycerol-binding subsite on sialidase as opposed to the guanidino-binding subsite. This benzoic acid derivative thus provides a new compound that interacts in a novel manner with the catalytic site of influenza sialidase.

Abstract
In most allopolyploid plants, only homogenetic chromosome pairing occurs in meiosis, as a result of the recognition of genome differentiation by the genetic system regulating meiotic chromosome pairing. The nature of differentiation between chromosomes of closely related genomes is examined here by investigating recombination between wheat chromosome 1A and the closely related homoeologous chromosome 1Am of Triticum monococcum. The recognition of the differentiation between these chromosomes by the Ph1 locus, which prevents heterogenetic chromosome pairing in wheat, is also investigated. Chromosomes 1A and 1Am are shown to be colinear, and it is concluded that they are differentiated "substructurally." This substructural differentiation is argued to be recognized by the Ph1 locus. In the absence of Ph1, the distribution and frequencies of crossing over between the 1A and 1Am homoeologues were similar to the distribution and frequencies of crossing over between 1A homologues. The cytogenetic and evolutionary significance of these findings is discussed.
