Abstract
The small negative CD bands around 297 nm of isolated 30-S and 50-S ribosomal subunits were precisely measured for three bacteria, Bacillus stearothermophilus, Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli Q 13. The intensities of the negative CD bands of 30-S subunits were always much greater than those of 50-S subunits irrespective of the bacterial strains, which may be related to the difference in comformations of rRNAs and proteins in the complexes between these subribosomal particles. The dissociation of 70-S ribosomes into two subunits by lowering Mg2+ concentration caused evident enhancement of intensity of the 297 nm CD band, which was completely reversed by the association of the two subunits into 70-S particles. The melting profiles of CD spectra 3 B. stearothermophilus and E. coli were compared and both subunits of the former were found to be more heat stable than those of the latter. It was found that 5 M urea and 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) treatment caused considerable reduction of the negative CD intensity around 297 nm of 30-S subunits but no significant change of 50-S subunits, while no significant change was observed for the CD spectra of isolated 16-S and 23-S rRNAs by the same treatment. Effects of EDTA treatment and then addition of Mg2+ on the CD spectra and fluorescence emission spectra of the subunits were also observed and the contribution by the interaction between rRNA s and proteins in ribosomes to the small negative band around 297 nm was discussed.

Abstract
The effect of Fusaric acid (FA), a specific inhibitor of dopamine beta-hydroxylase, on humna TSH and thyroid hormone concentration (T4 and T3) was evaluated. Healthy subjects showed no significant changes in serum T3,T4 and TSH concentrations following the administration of FA calcium salt (FA-Ca) or placebo. Similarly, administration of FA-Ca for 4 weeks to hypertensive patients failed to produce significant changes in the serum T4 or T3 Resin Sponge Uptake values, and in the TSH and T3 responses to TRH. In contrast, FA-Ca produced a significant reduction on the high basal serum TSH level in patients with primary hypothyroidism. The mean nadir was 25% and ranged from 6 to 61%. As in the case of L-Dopa, the effect of FA-Ca on serum TSH is most clearly demonstrated in patients with primary hypothyroidism. Alterations in brain amines may directly or indirectly suppress pituitary TSH secretion. The possibility of changes in the peripheral distribution or turnover rate of TSH has not been excluded.

Abstract
The effect of benzoate anion on intramolecular general base-catalyzed ester hydrolysis by the imidazolyl group in endo-5-[4'(5')-imidazolyl]bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-endo-2-yl trans-cinnamate was examined in dioxane/H(2)O solutions. Benzoate anion exhibited a remarkable acceleration of the intramolecular general base-catalyzed hydrolysis of endo-5-[4'(5')-imidazolyl]bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-endo-2-yl trans-cinnamate by the imidazolyl group. The rate of hydrolysis in the presence of the benzoate anion increased with the dioxane mole fraction and was proportional to the concentration of benzoate anion. On the other hand, the rate of hydrolysis of endo-5-[4'(5')-imidazolyl]bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-endo-2-yl trans-cinnamate in the absence of benzoate anion decreased with the dioxane mole fraction. Thus, the ratio of the rate in the presence of benzoate anion to that in the absence of benzoate anion drastically increased with the dioxane mole fraction and attained a 2500-fold rate acceleration at a dioxane mole fraction of 0.42 (the highest experimentally attainable) when the concentration of benzoate anion was 0.5 M. The proposed mechanism involves proton abstraction by the benzoate anion from the imidazolyl group, followed by proton abstraction by the imidazolyl group from H(2)O, resulting in effective general base-catalysis of hydrolysis. The results of the present paper provide support for the "charge-relay" system in serine proteases.

Abstract
Porcine erythrocyte catalase (hydrogen-peroxide:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.6) has been purified from porcine blood by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, ammonium sulfate fractionation and CM-cellulose column chromatography. The purified enzyme was found to associate into larger molecules than the native one when it was stored at 4degrees C for more than one week. The associated molecules can be detected by gel filtration on a Bio-gel A-1.5 m column and disc gel electrophoresis as well as ultracentrifugal analysis. Molecular weights of the associated catalase molecules were about 500 000, 750 000, 1 000 000 and so forth estimated by gel filtration and disc gel electrophoresis, corresponding to dimer, trimer and tetramer respectively, of a native molecule (monomer) with a molecular weight of about 250 000. The association of catalase molecules is found to be time-dependent and to proceed seemingly from monomer through dimer as an intermediate. From the effects of several thiol reagents or reducing reagents on the association process and spectrophotometric titration of SH groups, it is inferred that this specific association of procine erythrocyte catalase is caused by formation of intermolecular disulfide cross-links due to air oxidation of SH groups in the protein moiety.

Abstract
A new method of affinity chromatography using blue dextran-Sepharose 4B resin was established to purify NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase [EC 1.1.1.42] from Bacillus stearothermophilus in high yield. The purified preparation was found to be homogeneous on disc gel electrophoresis. The SH groups of the enzyme were modified with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) to determine the number of SH groups per molecule and their contribution to the enzyme activity. One SH group was titrated with DTNB per subunit (the native enzyme consisted of two subunits) and after complete denaturation with 4 M guanidine-HCl the number of titratable SH groups remained unchanged. ORD and CD measurements showed that the alpha-helical conformation of the polypeptide backbone was unaffected by DTNB modification, though the near ultraviolet CD spectrum was evidently altered. The fluorescence derived from tryptophanyl residue(s) was quenched by the modification to 30% of the native level, which may indicate the presence of SH in the vicinity of tryptophanyl residue(s). A remarkable decrease of the enzyme activity was detected upon modification with DTNB, but there was some discrepancy between the rate of inactivation and that of modification of SH groups. The presence of substrate and Mg2+ gave partial protection against modification of the SH groups by DTNB. Complete protection of the native enzyme activity against heating at 65 degrees was observed in the presence of substrate and Mg2+, but the thermostability of the enzyme was markedly reduced by modification of the SH groups.

Abstract
The SH groups of glutamine synthetase [EC 6.3.1.2] from Bacillus stearothermophilus were modified with 5, 5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) in order to determine the number of SH groups in the molecule as well as the effect of the modification on the enzyme activity. Three SH groups per subunit were detected after complete denaturation of the enzyme with 6 M urea, one of which was essential for the enzyme activity in view of its reactivity with 5, 5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) on addition of MgCl2 with loss of the activity. The CD spectra of the modified enzyme in the near ultraviolet region changed from that of the native enzyme, indicating that aromatic amino acid residues were affected by modification of the SH group. The fluorescence derived from tryptophanyl residue(s) was quenched depending on the extent of modification of the SH group, suggesting that the tryptophanyl residue(s) was located in the proximity of the SH group. The thermostability of the enzyme was remarkably decreased by modification of the SH group.

Abstract
Native bovine liver catalase [EC 1.11.1.6] and catalase acetylated with N-acetylimidazole (AI) both combined with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to form catalase-SDS complexes. The differences between native and acetylated catalase bound to SDS were investigated as regards enzymatic activity, absorption spectra, ORD and CD, sedimentation velocity and fluorescence spectra. It was found that the binding of SDS with both catalases depended on incubation time and SDS concentration, and that the acetylation of catalase had some protective effect on the denaturation of the molecule by SDS, which may be ascribed to a reduction of ionic interaction between SDS and the protein on acetylation. The native catalase was found to split into three smaller components on incubation with 1% SDS for 96 hr, whereas the acetylated catalase split into two smaller components. These smaller components were isolated by gel filtration through Sephadex G-100. The isolated components has estimated molecular weights of 60,000, 30,000, aide. It seemed likely that the modification occurred stepwise. Approximately 26% of the carboxyl groups of fibrinogen was modified finally. The modified fibrinogen had no interaction with cationic detergent, and did not form any complex with the detergent. In dilute acid, fibrinogen was observed to show only a slight interaction with cationic detergent. It is probable that the exposed and ionized carboxyl groups are essential for the formation of a complex between fibrinogen and cationic detergent.

Abstract
Inorganic pyrophosphatase [EC 3.6.1.1] was purified from Bacillus stearothermophilus to a homogeneous state both ultracentrifugally and electrophoretically. Ultracentrifugal analysis revealed that the molecular weight of the enzyme is 122,000 and the sedimentation coefficient (S0.34%/20, W) is 5.2S. The enzyme molecule in 0.1% sodium dodecylsulfate solution containing 1 mM 2-mercaptoethanol had an estimated molecular weight of 70,000 on the basis of SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis results, which indicates that the enzyme may consist of two subunits. Divalent cations such as Mg2+, Mn2+, and Co2+ are required for the enzymatic activity. Pyrophosphate is the only substrate for the enzyme. ATP and p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibit the enzyme reaction markedly.
