Abstract
This retrospective study profiled subjects with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) who had previously received therapeutic radiation. A chart review was conducted of 100 adult patients diagnosed with GBM and referred to a major medical center in the southwestern United States. Seventeen patients received previous radiation therapy with an average dose of 48.5 Grey (Gy) and an average latency period of 15 years between initial therapy and GBM diagnosis. Of these 17, four white females fit all four attribution criteria for radiation-induced GBM. Two had been treated with radiation for prolactinomas, one for pinealoma and one for squamous cell cancer of the ethmoid sinus. The addition of these four case studies to the previously published descriptions of 80 cases of gliomas, 36 of which were GBM, subsequent to radiation therapy provides additional support for considering therapeutic radiation as a risk factor for GBM development.

Abstract
Resonance assignments for interleukin 1 beta at neutral pH were made by using three-dimensional NMR in combination with specific labeling and double-labeling methods with stable isotopes. On the basis of the present assignments, 15N single-quantum coherence spectra of N-terminal truncated and fusion mutants were compared with that of the wild-type. Although these mutants have reduced biological activity, they showed 15N-SQC spectra similar to that of the wild-type. However, small but significant chemical shift changes were observed for amino acid residues within a loop 86-99, in spite of the modification at the N-terminus, supporting the idea that this loop forms a biologically active part of interleukin 1 beta. Receptor-binding activity was studied for mutants (Asp-93)-, (Leu-93)- and des-(Arg-98)interleukin 1 beta's. The results show significant loss of the receptor-binding activity. The N-terminus, the C-terminus, and the loop 86-99 form a part of the open end of a beta-barrel [Finzel, B. C., Clancy, L. L., Holland, D. R., Muchmore, S. W., Watenpaugh, K. D., & Einspahr, H. M.

Abstract
Cholinergic-specific antigens termed the Chol-1 family have been suggested to be of a ganglioside nature by Richardson et al. (J. Neurochem. 38, 1605-1614, 1982). Two molecular species of polysialogangliosides among bovine brain gangliosides were found to react with anti-Chol-1 alpha antiserum. One of them, Chol-1 alpha-a, was isolated and characterized as a trisialoganglioside containing the gangliotetraose backbone in which 1 mol of sialic acid was attached to each of the reducing end galactose, N-acetylgalactosamine and internal galactose residues, respectively. The chemical structure of Chol-1 alpha-a was determined for the first time, being as follows: IV3NeuAc III6NeuAc II3NeuAc-GgOse4 Cer.

Abstract
We have determined the structures of six oligosaccharides isolated from human milk using a monoclonal antibody, MSW 113. The isolation involved affinity chromatography on a column of the immobilized monoclonal antibody and high-performance liquid chromatography. From the results of 500 and 600 mHz 1H NMR spectroscopy and fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry their structures were deduced to be: [formula; see text] Two of these oligosaccharides, numbers 4 and 5, have not previously been described. All of them bound to MSW 113, but their reactivities are weaker than those of sialyl-Le(a) oligosaccharides. The results indicate that MSW 113 reacts with oligosaccharides with the mono- and disialyl-Le(a), and other sialyl type 1 structures.

Abstract
The three-dimensional structure of conotoxin GIIIA, an important constituent of the venom from the marine hunting snail Conus geographus L., was determined in aqueous solution by two-dimensional proton nuclear magnetic resonance and simulated annealing based methods. On the basis of 162 assigned nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) connectivities obtained at the medium field strength frequency of 400 MHz, 74 final distance constraints of sequential and tertiary ones were derived and used together with 18 torsion angle (phi, chi 1) constraints and 9 distance constraints derived from disulfide bridges. A total of 32 converged structures were obtained from 200 runs of calculations. The atomic root-mean-square (RMS) difference about the mean coordinate positions (excluding the terminal residues 1 and 22) is 0.8 A for backbone atoms (N, C alpha, C). Conotoxin GIIIA is characterized by a particular folding of the 22 amino acid peptidic chain, which is stabilized by three disulfide bridges arranged in cage at the center of a discoidal structure of approximately 20-A diameter. The seven cationic side chains of lysine and arginine residues project radially into the solvent and form potential sites of interaction with the skeletal muscle sodium channel for which the toxin is a strong inhibitor. The present results provide a molecular basis to elucidate the remarkable physiological properties of this neurotoxin.

Abstract
Cleavage of the two carboxyl-terminal glycine residues from native ubiquitin yields the proteolysis-incompetent derivative des-Gly-Gly-ubiquitin. We report here that this derivative inhibits the ATP-dependent degradation of casein and is multi-ubiquitinated but not degraded by reticulocyte lysates. Inhibition of proteolysis diminished with increasing concentration of native ubiquitin, but was not reduced by increased casein concentration. Cleavage of the last four residues from ubiquitin yielded a derivative that was a weaker inhibitor of proteolysis and a poorer substrate for ubiquitination. These results suggest that the conjugation of ubiquitin to ubiquitin during polyubiquitin synthesis involves a specific conjugation system that recognizes ubiquitin and some of its derivatives, but not general proteolysis substrates, as ubiquitin acceptors.

Abstract
The OmpR protein of Escherichia coli is a positive regulator involved in activation of the ompF and ompC genes which encode the major outer membrane proteins OmpF and OmpC, respectively. By employing recombinant DNA techniques, we isolated the N- and C-terminal halves of the OmpR molecule. From the results of biochemical analyses of these fragments, it was concluded that the N-terminal portion contains a site involved in phosphorylation by an OmpR-specific protein kinase EnvZ, whereas the C-terminal part possesses a DNA-binding site for the ompC and ompF promoters.

Abstract
OmpR protein is a positive regulator involved in activation of the ompF and ompC genes which encode the major outer membrane proteins OmpF and OmpC, respectively. OmpR protein is considered to have a two-domain structure. In the present study we isolated a C-terminal fragment of the OmpR molecule, which bound to a specific promoter sequence of the ompF gene. We conclude that the C-terminal portion of the OmpR protein contains a DNA-binding site.

Abstract
Methionine-1 of ubiquitin was oxidized to the sulfone without significant effect on biological activity or conformation at neutral pH. However, at low pH, the oxidized protein expanded to a more open conformation, similar in gel sieving properties to denatured ubiquitin but similar in secondary structure to native ubiquitin. This conformational transition was absent in the native protein. Interpretation of these results in the light of X-ray data suggests that ubiquitin contains two independently folded domains that are held together in part by a hydrogen bond between Met-1 and Lys-63 and which can be separated when this bond is broken. It is suggested that separation of these domains may occur upon ubiquitin conjugation.

Abstract
The effect in reticulocyte lysates of proteins with blocked amino groups on the ATP-dependent degradation of casein and serum albumin was studied in order to assess the extent to which proteins with blocked and with free amino groups share common paths of proteolytic degradation. Completely acetylated or succinylated casein and acetylated or succinylated serum albumin (reduced and carboxymethylated), in addition to other amino-modified proteins, inhibited the ATP-dependent proteolysis of both casein and reduced carboxymethylated serum albumin. Inhibition of serum albumin degradation by acetylated serum albumin was competitive, whereas inhibition of casein degradation by acetylated casein was largely competitive with evidence of mixed kinetics. The different amino-blocked proteins studied, which were largely unfolded under assay conditions, were similarly effective as inhibitors on a weight basis, with Ki values in the range 0.2-0.6 mg/ml; there was no correlation between the ability of the blocked proteins to serve as proteolysis substrates and their effectiveness as inhibitors. Studies of the effects of acetylated proteins on the conjugation of ubiquitin to serum albumin and casein demonstrated that the acetylated proteins blocked formation of ubiquitin-albumin conjugates and of selected casein conjugates; the steady state concentration of selected conjugates of endogenous lysate proteins was increased in the presence of amino-blocked proteins. The results suggest that proteins with blocked amino groups, which cannot serve as substrates for ubiquitin conjugation, can compete for binding to those ubiquitin conjugation factors that recognize and ubiquitinate potential substrates of the ubiquitin pathway. The similar inhibitory properties of the different blocked proteins in turn suggest that a common factor in binding to these conjugation factors may be recognition of the polypeptide backbone.

Abstract
To investigate the mechanism of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cisplatin) nephrotoxicity, male Sprague-Dawley rats were given one injection of cisplatin (6 mg/kg i.v.). Urinary levels of amino acids and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase were monitored for 8 days; kidney homogenate content of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase was followed for 50 hr, and that of selenium-dependent glutathione peroxidase and total glutathione was followed for 4 hr. Peak urinary levels of amino acids and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase occurred 4.5 hr after the i.v. dose. Glutamine, glycine, and ethanolamine were all elevated greater than 20 times that of the control at 4.5 hr and were still significantly elevated at 50 hr. Total renal glutathione content increased 51 +/- 17% (S.D.) of control values 20 min after cisplatin was given, before returning to base-line levels. No depletion of either renal glutathione or glutathione peroxidase was detected over the time interval studied. These results demonstrate an earlier physiological impairment than has hitherto been shown. Furthermore, depletion of glutathione and glutathione peroxidase does not occur in the rat kidney following therapeutic doses of cisplatin, in contrast to the changes observed in cardiac tissue following doxorubicin treatment.

Abstract
To describe psychosocial adaptation after coronary artery surgery and to identify preoperative factors associated with good outcome, the authors interviewed 30 patients before and 1--2 years after surgery. Despite good physiologic outcome (as measured by treadmill and cardiac function) this sample was found to be functioning poorly. Eighty-three percent were unemployed, and 57% were sexually impaired. A preoperative duration of symptoms of eight months or more was associated with significantly worse postoperative overall adaptation. Most patients who had suffered angina eight months or longer evidenced a damaged self-concept, which was reinforced rather than repaired by the experience of surgery.
