Abstract
Specular microscopic investigation was conducted on 5 cases with the diagnosis compatible with posterior corneal vesicles. Endothelial cells were considerably enlarged with a more or less indistinct margin. Deposits onto endothelial cells were occasionally seen. The results of specular microscopy suggest that posterior corneal vesicles be classified as a nonfamilial, unilateral variant of posterior polymorphous dystrophy of the cornea.

Abstract
A nearly full-length cDNA and a genomic clone were isolated that encoded the phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) of rice plants, and the complete nucleotide sequences were determined. The gene encodes a polypeptide of 701 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence is highly similar to that of PAL from Phaseolus vulgaris deduced from an incomplete cDNA fragment. The cloned gene spans 4412 bp and consists of two exons and one intron. The site of initiation of transcription was located -86 nucleotides (position 1) upstream from the translational initiation codon by the primer-extension method. Sequences analogous to TATA-box and GC-box were found in the 5'-upstream region from the transcriptional initiation site. Southern blot analysis showed that the PAL gene of rice plants exists as a small multi-gene family. Within this family, the genomic clone isolated in this study was shown to be responsive by light. This also indicated that this genomic sequence functions as a gene for phenylalanine ammonia-lyase in rice plants in vivo.

Abstract
A cDNA clone for phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) induced in wounded sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.) root was obtained by immunoscreening a cDNA library. The protein produced in Escherichia coli cells containing the plasmid pPAL02 was indistinguishable from sweet potato PAL as judged by Ouchterlony double diffusion assays. The M(r) of its subunit was 77,000. The cells converted [(14)C]-l-phenylalanine into [(14)C]-t-cinnamic acid and PAL activity was detected in the homogenate of the cells. The activity was dependent on the presence of the pPAL02 plasmid DNA. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA contained a 2121-base pair (bp) open-reading frame capable of coding for a polypeptide with 707 amino acids (M(r) 77, 137), a 22-bp 5'-noncoding region and a 207-bp 3'-noncoding region. The results suggest that the insert DNA fully encoded the amino acid sequence for sweet potato PAL that is induced by wounding. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with that of a PAL cDNA fragment from Phaseolus vulgaris revealed 78.9% homology. The sequence from amino acid residues 258 to 494 was highly conserved, showing 90.7% homology.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of nonspecific lipid transfer proteins (ns-LTPs) in germinating castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) seeds were investigated. Lipid transfer activities of ns-LTPs in the cotyledons, axis, and endosperm increased with growth after germination. The activity increases were accompanied by increased amounts of ns-LTPs in each tissue, as measured by immunoblot using anti-ns-LTP serum. These results suggest that the ns-LTPs are synthesized de novo in each tissue after germination and not activated from inactive proteins synthesized before germination. Comparison of the immunoblot products in each tissue from 4-day-old seedlings indicate the occurrence of tissue-specific isoforms of ns-LTPs; 9 kilodaltons (major) and 7 kilodaltons (minor) in the cotyledons, and 7 kilodaltons (major) and 9 kilodaltons (minor) in the axis, whereas only the 8-kilodalton ns-LTP is present in the endosperm. In vitro translation from poly(A)(+) RNAs from three tissues of castor bean seedlings and the detection of immunoprecipitated products indicate that translatable mRNAs for ns-LTPs exist in the three tissues a day before the synthesis of ns-LTPs; the translation products, which are 3.5 to 4.0 kilodaltons larger than ns-LTPs, were processed to the mature ns-LTPs. The production of mature ns-LTPs from translatable mRNAs without any delay suggests that gene expression of ns-LTPs in castor bean seedlings is controlled at a step before the formation of translatable mRNAs.

Abstract
Since there is little or no pseudocholinesterase at the motor end plate, the neuromuscular blockade by succinylcholine is terminated by its diffusion away from the end-plate into extracellular fluid. Pseudocholinesterase (ChE), therefore, influences the duration of action of succinylcholine (SCC) by controlling the rate of hydrolysis before it reaches the end-plate. SCC neuromuscular blockade can be prolonged in the presence of an atypical form of ChE. A 37 year old male with the deficiency of ChE activity underwent pancreatico-duodenectomy under neuroleptanesthesia. The mode, duration and treatments of neuromuscular blockade following succinylcholine (SCC) were studied using train-of-four (TOF). SCC was administered 6 times (total 170 mg) during the operation. Prolonged apnea was noted after the first intravenous injection of SCC (60 mg, 1 mg.kg-1). It was found that spontaneous resolution of the neuromuscular block had four phases and there was a pronounced fade of the TOF response. After the second injection of SCC (30 mg), a remarkable fade of the TOF was detected and the character of the block was considered to be a desensitizing block (phase II block). The block was treated by intravenous infusion of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) (400 ml) which contained ChE, at the rate of 231 +/- 56 IU/l/37 degrees C begun shortly after the fifth injection of SCC (20mg). The duration of the block was remarkably shortened but the recovery curves were almost unchanged, indicating the diffusion of SCC away from the end-plate and/or that receptor-channel is presumably slow. The neuromuscular blockade was fully reversed by additional injection of FFP (400 ml) before extubation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The complete amino acid sequence and disulfide bridge location of HR2a, one of the hemorrhagic proteins isolated from the snake venom of Trimeresurus flavoviridis, have been determined by analysis of peptides derived from digests with cyanogen bromide, lysyl endopeptidase, trypsin, and Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease. Peptides were purified by gel filtration followed by reversed-phase HPLC. HR2a has the amino-terminal sequence of less than Glu-Gln-Arg- and consists of a total of 202 residues with a calculated molecular weight of 23,015. Sequence analysis indicates the presence of another isoform which lacks the amino-terminal residue, making 201 amino acid residues with a molecular weight of 22,887. Three disulfide bridges of HR2a link Cys-118 to Cys-197, Cys-159 to Cys-181, and Cys-161 to Cys-164. HR2a contains a segment which is similar to the zinc-chelating sequences found in thermolysin and several mammalian metalloproteinases, suggesting that HR2a is a metalloproteinase with limited substrate specificity. However, there is no other significant sequence homology with thermolysin except for the zinc-ligand region.

Abstract
We have isolated two overlapping cDNA clones that encompass the entire structural gene for pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase from maize. The analysis of the nucleotide sequence has revealed that the cDNA clones include an insert of a total of 3,171 nucleotides without a poly(A) tail and encode a polypeptide that contains 947 amino acid residues and has a molecular weight of 102,673. Comparison of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of purified pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase protein with that deduced from the nucleotide sequence shows that the mature form of pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase in the maize chloroplast consists of 876 amino acid residues and has a molecular weight of 95,353. The amino acid composition of the deduced sequence of pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase is in good agreement with that of the purified enzyme. The region that contains the active and regulatory sites of pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase can be found in the deduced sequence of amino acids. We have predicted the secondary structure and calculated the hydropathy pattern of this region. The extra 71 residues at the N terminus of the deduced sequence of amino acid residues corresponds to the transit peptide which is indispensable for the transport of the precursor protein into chloroplasts. We have compared the primary structure of the pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase transit peptide to those of other proteins and found sequences similar to the consensus sequences found in other transit peptides.

Abstract
In 25 cases of primary hepatocellular carcinomas, the relationships between clinical, pathological features and DNA histogram patterns were investigated. Nuclear DNA histogram that represents cell cycle and indicates biological malignancy of carcinoma was analyzed by rapid image sensor analytical system scanning enable to measure the density, area and perimeter of nuclei even on thin tissue sections. Histograms of over 65 years old patients showed low ploidy pattern rather than that of less than 65 patients whose AFP values are over 1000 ng/ml showed statistically higher ploidy pattern compared to those of under 10 ng/ml. No significant relations were verified between pathological findings and DNA histogram patterns. But patients who died within 18 months after hepatectomy showed broad and high ploidy histogram patterns compared to patients who lived over 18 months. These results suggested that DNA histogram analysis is useful for evaluate the biological malignancy of primary hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
A case of renal angiomyolipoma with bone formation is reported. A 61-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with one month history of fever. About 15 cm in diameter mass was palpated in her right lower abdomen. Plain abdominal roentgenography, ultrasonography and computed tomography showed marked calcification in the cephalic portion of the right kidney, tumors surrounding right kidney and another tumor in the right lower abdomen. All these tumors and the kidney constituted a big mass continuously, and no fatty component was demonstrated. Total excision of the mass including the kidney was performed. The mass was 30 X 24 X 10 cm in size and 3,240 g in weight. Histologically, the tumor was compatible to renal angiomyolipoma. But, radiopaque shadows which looked like calcification were disclosed to be bones, and fatty tissues were not seen so much. Therefore, the name "benign mesenchymoma" was thought to be more acceptable than angiomyolipoma in this case. Preoperative diagnosis of renal angiomyolipoma is the demonstration of fatty densities in the tumor, and the characteristic extrarenal development should also be taken into consideration. Furthermore, the bone formation of angiomyolipoma, which is very rare might be an important finding to angiomyolipoma.

Abstract
Patients with advanced liver disease demonstrate characteristic plasma amino acid abnormalities. The response of plasma amino acid patterns after liver transplantation in those patients is unknown. Mongrel dogs were subjected to two experimental models, that is, one is total hepatectomy under veno-veno bypass as an assumption of an hepatic phase in liver transplantation and the another is splenectomy as control. In control group, BCAA/AAA ratio rose gradually during operation. The levels of methionine, glycine and alanine were significantly lower at 4 hours. In hepatectomized dogs, BCAA/AAA ratio fell gradually after total hepatectomy. The levels of amino acids except BCAA were higher than preoperative value. Increase of alanine was the most remarkable early after total hepatectomy. It was derived not only from the lack of glucose-alanine cycle but also from increased synthesis due to degradation of the BCAA in muscle.

Abstract
A gene encoding one of the pathogenesis-related proteins, PR1a, and two related pseudogenes were isolated from Nicotiana tabacum. The cloned PR1a gene (pPR-gamma) and one of the pseudogenes (pPR-alpha) were sequenced and found to have similar structures. The sequence of pPR-gamma was quite similar to that of the cDNA clone of PR1a. The plasmid pPR-gamma did not contain an intron and had a typical promoter sequence in the 5'-flanking region.

Abstract
Fourteen cDNA clones of pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins, PR1a and PR1b of tobacco were obtained and classified into six groups based on restriction enzyme maps. To assign the groups to different classes of PR1 proteins, all the clones were partially sequenced and compared with amino acid sequences of PR1a and PR1b. Two groups of these corresponded to PR1a and four to PR1b. The results indicate that there are at least two kinds of PR1a mRNAs and four kinds of PR1b mRNAs. In fact, one cDNA insert hybridized to at least six to seven DNA fragments in restriction enzyme fragments of Samsun NN genomic DNA, indicating that the PR1 protein genes exist as a multigene family in the tobacco genome. Two sequences of essentially full-length cDNAs for PR1a and PR1b were determined and compared. The coding sequences of two cDNAs share 93% homology and the deduced amino acid sequences of PR1a and PR1b precursors, which are synthesized as larger precursors containing signal peptides, are 91% homologous. The homology of mature PR1a and PR1b regions is higher than that of larger precursors, 94% in the nucleotide sequence and 93% in the amino acid sequence, whereas that of the signal peptide regions is 80 and 90%, respectively. The hydropathy patterns and the secondary structures predicted by Chou-Fasman rules are similar to tomato PR protein in the half-side of the C terminus, which suggests that the half-C terminus side is important for the function of PR1 proteins.

Abstract
A case of left-sided gallbladder with an anomaly of the intrahepatic portal vein and cholesterol polyps of the gallbladder is presented. A 23-year-old man with sudden onset of epigastric pain, fever and abdominal irritation was admitted to our hospital and an emergency celiotomy was carried out. The gallbladder lay on the left side of the round ligament, that is, it was a left-sided gallbladder. Since operative findings such as cholecystitis, gastrointestinal perforation and pancreatitis were not observed, no more procedures were done. Postoperative ultrasonography showed some interesting findings as follows: multiple echogenic nonshadowing small polypoid lesions which did not change in size and shape during a 2.5 year interval were detected and were thought to be cholesterol polyps. The tail of the gallbladder was situated on the left side of the round ligament and the motion of the gallbladder as determined by postural exchange was not floating. These findings are compatible with a left-sided gallbladder. The left branch of the portal vein did not form an umbilical portion as is usually expected and the right branch formed a cystic structure similar to a normal umbilical portion with the anterior, posterior and medial branches ramified. The round ligament arose from the cul-de-sac of the umbilical portion. Twenty-six cases of left-sided gallbladder from the Japanese literature were reviewed and discussed.

Abstract
We have cloned a full length cDNA for the small subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase from C4 monocot maize, determined the complete nucleotide sequence of this cDNA and deduced its amino acid sequence. The cDNA insert included 513 bp of the coding region, and 65 and 252 nucleotides of the 5' and 3' untranslated regions, respectively. The transit and mature peptides have, respectively, 47 and 123 amino acids. Comparison with the small subunit genes from other plants revealed that the maize small subunit is similar to the wheat one, there being 73% homology between the transit peptides and 64% between the mature proteins. This indicates that there is no noteworthy difference between the C3 and C4 small subunit structures. Extreme codon bias was observed for this gene, and similar codon preferences are observed for other proteins highly expressed in maize leaf, light harvesting chlorophyll binding protein and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase. The results indicate that preferential codon usage for highly expressed genes occurs in maize leaf.

Abstract
The dietary intake of cholesterol, phytosterol and PUFA in Japanese was investigated to obtain information on dietary parameters related to coronary artery disease. Three daily menus for both 1957 and 1982 were prepared based on the daily per capita consumption of foods and nutrient intakes from national surveys. From 1957 to 1982, the average daily intake of cholesterol rose 2.1-fold from 183 to 376 mg while that of phytosterol remained at about 373 mg. Daily intakes of total fatty acid (19.2 g), PUFA (7.3 g), MUFA (5.8 g) and SFA (6.1 g) in 1957 increased in 1982 to 48.7 g, 11.9 g, 19.5 g and 17.3 g, respectively. The ratio of PUFA/SFA decreased to 56% from 1.23 in 1957 to 0.69 in 1982 and the PUFA/MUFA ratio also decreased to 48%. The PUFA/cholesterol ratio was lower in 1982 (31.8) than in 1957 (42.6), and the decrease in the phytosterol/cholesterol ratio to 46% was greater than that in the PUFA/cholesterol ratio (which only fell to 75% of the 1957 value). Thus, comparison of the 1982 and 1957 intakes indicated the increase in risk factors, cholesterol and SFA intake, and the decrease in the ratio of PUFA/SFA in the Japanese population during the past few decades.

Abstract
Chalcone synthase was purified to homogeneity by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis from cell suspension cultures of carrot in which anthocyanin synthesis was induced by transferring the cells from a medium containing 2,4-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid (2,4-D) to one lacking it. A molecular weight of 80,000-85,000 for the enzyme was determined by gel filtration and disc-gel polyacrylamide electrophoresis, and one of about 40,600 for the subunit by SDS slab-gel electrophoresis. The primary reaction product was chalcone and the pH optimum of the reaction was 8.0. The Km values for 4-coumaroyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA were 5.7 microM and 18 microM, respectively. These properties of carrot chalcone synthase were discussed in comparison to those of that from cell cultures of parsley reported previously. Antiserum against chalcone synthase from carrot was obtained from mice bred under specific pathogen free conditions. Crossreactivity was examined by Western-blotting, and the high specificity of the antiserum against chalcone synthase was demonstrated.
