Abstract
Platelet-activation factor (PAF), one of the potent proinflammatory mediators, is produced from a large range of cells, including polymorphonuclear neutrophils, monocytes, and natural killer cells. To study the role of PAF in the pathogenesis of silicosis, we determined the PAF in silicotic patients and in healthy persons. The results showed that the concentration of PAF in the plasma of silicotic patients was significantly higher than that of healthy persons. Ourin vitro experimental results showed that the total numbers of fibroblasts were markedly raised with added PAF from 0 to 1 μ g/ml. Adding 1 μ g/ml PAF significantly increased the total numbers of fibroblasts after culture for 48, 72, 96 hrs. Therefore, we suggest that PAF be possibly involved in the pathogenesis of silicosis. However, the mechanism remains to be further elucidated.

Abstract
Resonance patterns have been observed in 2D solid-state NMR spectra of the transmembrane segment of M2 protein from Influenza A virus in oriented samples reflecting the helical wheel of this alpha-helix. The center of this pattern uniquely defines the helical tilt with respect to the bilayer normal without a need for resonance assignments. The distribution of resonances from amino acid specific labels around the "PISA wheel" defines the rotational orientation of the helix and yields preliminary site-specific assignments. With assignments high-resolution structural detail, such as differences in tilt and rotational orientation along the helical axis leading to an assessment of helical coiling, can be obtained.

Abstract
SAP-1 and Elk-1 are members of a large group of eukaryotic transcription factors that contain a conserved ETS DNA binding domain and that cooperate with the serum response factor (SRF) to activate transcription of the c-fos protooncogene. Despite the high degree of sequence similarity, which includes an identical amino acid sequence for the DNA recognition helix within the ETS domain of these proteins, they exhibit different DNA binding properties. Here we report the 2.1 ¿ crystal structure of the ETS domain of Elk-1 bound to a high affinity E74 DNA (E74DNA) site and compare it to a SAP-1-E74DNA complex. This comparison reveals that the differential DNA binding properties of these proteins are mediated by non-conserved residues distal to the DNA binding surface that function to orient conserved residues in the DNA recognition helix for protein-specific DNA contacts. As a result, nearly one-third of the interactions between the protein recognition helix and the DNA are different between the SAP-1 and Elk-1 DNA complexes. Taken together, these studies reveal a novel mechanism for the modulation of DNA binding specificity within a conserved DNA binding domain, and have implications for how highly homologous ETS proteins exhibit differential DNA-binding properties.

Abstract
Orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase catalyzes the conversion of orotidine 5'-monophosphate to uridine 5'-monophosphate, the last step in biosynthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides. As part of a Structural Genomics Initiative, the crystal structures of the ligand-free and the6-azauridine 5'-monophosphate-complexed forms have been determined at 1.8 and 1.5 A, respectively. The protein assumes a TIM-barrel fold with one side of the barrel closed off and the other side binding the inhibitor. A unique array of alternating charges (Lys-Asp-Lys-Asp) in the active site prompted us to apply quantum mechanical and molecular dynamics calculations to analyze the relative contributions of ground state destabilization and transition state stabilization to catalysis. The remarkable catalytic power of orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase is almost exclusively achieved via destabilization of the reactive part of the substrate, which is compensated for by strong binding of the phosphate and ribose groups. The computational results are consistent with a catalytic mechanism that is characterized by Jencks's Circe effect.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To sam up the experience in diagnosis and separation of a thoracopagus conjoined twins. METHODS Thoracopagus twin boys were admitted for evaluating possible separation and repair at age of 21 days. X-rays, CT, MRI, and ultrasound scan of torso showed separate and normal gastrointestinal and biliary tracts, little shared vasculature, but shared pericardium, diaphragm and liver parenchyma. The chest junctions were at the sternums and the most inferior two pairs of the ribs. One twin (twin A) had a protruding heart with VSD and ASD. RESULTS The infants were separated successfully at age of 45 days. The chest defect of twin A was closed with aid of a polyester pericardial patch graft and a silicon supporter. Managing anesthesia met some difficulty in understanding of the anatomical and physiological consequences of the complex anomaly. They are had brain edema and multiple system organ failures after separation, and were cured under intensive care. They are alive and well 6 months after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Careful preoperative evaluation proper anesthesia and surgical technique, and postoperative care are essential to the successful separation of the conjoined twins.

Abstract
Gene activation is a highly regulated process that requires the coordinated action of proteins to relieve chromatin repression and to promote transcriptional activation. Nuclear histone acetyltransferase (HAT) enzymes provide a mechanistic link between chromatin destabilization and gene activation by acetylating the epsilon-amino group of specific lysine residues within the aminoterminal tails of core histones to facilitate access to DNA by transcriptional activators. Here we report the high-resolution crystal structure of the HAT domain of Tetrahymena GCN5 (tGCN5) bound with both its physiologically relevant ligands, coenzyme A (CoA) and a histone H3 peptide, and the structures of nascent tGCN5 and a tGCN5/acetyl-CoA complex. Our structural data reveal histone-binding specificity for a random-coil structure containing a G-K-X-P recognition sequence, and show that CoA is essential for reorienting the enzyme for histone binding. Catalysis appears to involve water-mediated proton extraction from the substrate lysine by a glutamic acid general base and a backbone amide that stabilizes the transition-state reaction intermediate. Comparison with related N-acetyltransferases indicates a conserved structural framework for CoA binding and catalysis, and structural variability in regions associated with substrate-specific binding.

Abstract
Surface enhanced Raman scattering of thiourea adsorbed on the plated silver surface in an acidic solution has been studied. The results show that the thiourea molecules are inclined to adsorbed on the silver surface via sulphur. When the concentration of HCl in the solution is increased, the plane of the thiourea molecule deviates more from the normal line of the silver surface. The experimental results also suggest that the rather strong chemical enhanced mechanism would exist in this system.

Abstract
SAP-1 is a member of the Ets transcription factors and cooperates with SRF protein to activate transcription of the c-fos protooncogene. The crystal structures of the conserved ETS domain of SAP-1 bound to DNA sequences from the E74 and c-fos promoters reveal that a set of conserved residues contact a GGA core DNA sequence. Discrimination for sequences outside this core is mediated by DNA contacts from conserved and nonconserved protein residues and sequence-dependent DNA structural properties characteristic of A-form DNA structure. Comparison with the related PU.1/DNA and GABPalpha/beta/DNA complexes provides general insights into DNA discrimination between Ets proteins. Modeling studies of a SAP-1/SRF/DNA complex suggest that SRF may modulate SAP-1 binding to DNA by interacting with its ETS domain.

Abstract
Three strains of influenza A virus were isolated from patients suffering from influenza like disease in Railway Hygiene and Anti-epidemic Station of Taiyuan in January 1996. The identification results by serological method indicated that the isolates were different from H1N2 subtype of influenza A virus isolated from men in 1989 and 1992 and that their HA antigenicity was similar to that of A/RP/8/34 (H1N1) virus, but distinguishable from that of influenza A (H1N1) virus circulating in mans recently. The comparison of migration patterns of the RNA among the isolates, the A/PR//34 (H1N1) and the A/Wuhan/359/95 (H3N2) viruses revealed that the migration patterns of RNA 1-4 segments of the isolates were similar to those of A/PR/8/34 (H1N1) virus, but those of RNA 5-6 segments were indistinguishable from those of A/Wuhan/359/95 (H3N2) strain. However, the migration patterns of RNA 7-8 segments of the isolates were not only different from those of A/PR/8/34 (H1N1) virus, but also distingrasgable from those of A/Wuhan/359/95 (H3N2) strain. Therefore, it could be considered that the isolates were a novel reassortant H1N2 influenza A virus.

Abstract
Capture of rats by digging their cavities, identification of rat strains, sex and age, examination of their skin cut or damage, and detection of antigen and antibody of epidemic hemorrhagic fever virus (EHFV) were conducted in epidemic areas of epidemic hemorrhagic fever (EHF) in Jinaghan Plain, Hubei Province, to study prevalence of EHFV infection in rats. Results showed that Apodemus agarius and Rattus norvegius accounted for 69.7% and 23.6% of the total rats captured, respectively, their infection rates of EHFV were 21.8% and 30.9%, respectively. Infection rate of EHFV was significantly higher in adult rats than in sub-adult and young ones, with prevalence of 40.8%, 17.0% and 12.4%, respectively. Infection rate of EHFV was 45.9% in rats with skin cut, significantly higher than in those without it (13.9%). There was an obvious litter-clustering phenomenon in infected rats, but their litters distributed in space randomly. Serotyping of infected rats showed that Apodemus agarius mainly was in a wild rat pattern, Rattus norvegius in a domestic rat pattern, and a small number of rats were in undefined patterns. It indicated that Jinaghan Plain was a mixed epidemic area of EHF with domestic and wild rat patterns and with Apodemus agarius and Rattus norvegius as main reservoir host, and age, skin cut, and close contact with them were important factors contributing to transmit it.

Abstract
HSU17714 is a new gene discovered by subtractive hybridization. Its cDNA is 2,932 bp long and the gene is located at human chromosome 22 as defined by fluorescence in- situ hybridization combined fluorescence R-banding technique. Northern blot and RNA dot blot analyses showed that the expression level of HSU17714 gene was significantly lower in 15 cases of colorectal cancer than that in adjacent normal colonic mucosa. The defective expression of HSU17714 in colorectal cancer suggests that it is a new candidate tumor suppressor gene.

Abstract
Flavonol aglycones are required for pollen germination in petunia (Petunia hybrida L.). Mutant plants lacking chalcone synthase (CHS), which catalyzes the first committed step in flavonoid synthesis, do not accumulate flavonols and are self-sterile. The mutant pollen can be induced to germinate by supplementing it with kaempferol, a flavonol aglycone, either at the time of pollination or by addition to an in vitro germination system. Biochemical complementation occurs naturally when the mutant, flavonol-deficient pollen is crossed to wild-type, flavonoid-producing stigmas. We found that successful pollination depends on stigma maturity, indicating that flavonol aglycone accumulation may be developmentally regulated. Quantitative immunoblotting, in vitro and in vivo pollen germination, and high-performance liquid chromatographic analyses of stigma and anther extracts were used to determine the relationship between CHS levels and flavonol aglycone accumulation in developing petunia flowers. Although substantial levels of CHS were measured, we detected no flavonol aglycones in wild-type stigma or anther extracts. Instead, the occurrence of a conjugated form (flavonol glycoside) suggests that a mechanism may operate to convert glycosides to the active aglycone form.

Abstract
Chalcone synthase catalyzes the initial step of that branch of the phenylpropanoid pathway that leads to flavonoids. A lack of chalcone synthase activity has a pleiotropic effect in maize and petunia mutants: pollen fertility as well as flavonoid synthesis is disrupted. Both maize and petunia mutants are self-sterile due to a failure to produce a functional pollen tube. The finding that the mutant pollen is partially functional on wild-type stigmas led to the isolation and identification of kaempferol as a pollen germination-inducing constituent in wild-type petunia stigma extracts. We show that adding micromolar quantities of kaempferol to the germination medium or to the stigma at pollination is sufficient to restore normal pollen germination and tube growth in vitro and full seed set in vivo. Further we show that the rescue ability resides in particular structural features of a single class of compounds, the flavonol aglycones. This finding identifies another constituent of plant reproduction and suggests that addition or removal of the flavonol signal during pollen germination and tube growth provides a feasible way to control plant fertility.

Abstract
A sensitive potentiometric monitoring method was developed that permits the continuous measurement of the disolution profiles of methyl vinyl ether-maleic anhydride-acid copolymers and salt derivatives. Three distinct rate periods were observed in the dissolution rate of the anhydride copolymer, expressed as percent anhydride dissolved, was independent of sample weight over the weight range studied. The acid form of the copolymer showed only one dissolution rate period, with dissolution being very rapid. The rapid initial pH decrease observed during the first stage of dissolution for a series of anhydride-acid copolymer powder samples correlated closely with the anhydride-acid ratio, permitting chemical characterization of the copolymer functionality simultaneously with the analysis of dissolution profiles. Similarly, the extent of copolymer alkaline salt conversion was inversely proportional to the initial maximum pH increase observed during the first stage of dissolution of these salts. Mechanisms of dissolution of copolymer powder materials are discussed and compared to the dissolution of compressed disks and films reported previously.

Abstract
In teleosts glucosephosphate isomerase exists as two tissue-specific isozymes. Most tissues contain the more acidic liver-type isozyme, while white muscle contains the more basic isozyme; and a few tissues contain both the liver- and muscle-type isozymes as well as a hybird. The isozymes were isolated from catfish liver and muscle and from conger muscle and shown to be homogeneous by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing, analytical ultracentrifugation, and rechromatography. Both isozymes are of molecular weight 132,000 (S020,w = 7.0 S) and composed of two subunits of Mr approximately 65,000. The muscle and liver isozymes were shown to have distinct isoelectric points (catfish liver = 6.2; muscle = 7.0) and amino acid compositions. Tryptic peptide maps, after S-carboxymethylation and carbamylation, revealed several distinct differences in the primary structures of the isozymes. Although the isozymes could also be distinguished on the basis of their stabilities, most of their basic catalytic properties were found to be similar. A conger was obtained which was heterozygous for the variant allele at the muscle-glucosephosphate isomerase locus. A comparison of the variant conger muscle isozyme with the wild type revealed a single altered peptide, suggesting a point mutation. The structure-function studies, as well as the genetic studies, clearly establish that the two types of isozymes are of independent genetic origin.
