The administration of a diet deficient in thiamin results in elevated hepatic microsomal activity of aniline hydroxylase, ethylmorphone demethylase, NADPH cytochrome c reductase and cytochrome P-450 when compared to similar female rats fed diets supplemented with thiamin. Accompanying these differences in enzyme activity are increased concentrations of microsomal docosahexaenoic acid and arachidonic acid. Binding of aniline to microsomes from rats fed high levels of thiamin is decreased due to a decrease in cytochrome P-450. On the other hand, the binding of ethylmorphine to P-450 is decreased by feeding high levels of thiamin. The daily administration of mestranol enhanced ethylmorphine and aniline metabolism to a greater extent in rats fed thiamin-rich diet than in rats fed thiamin-deficient diet or laboratory chow. This treatment did not increase cytochrome P-450 cytochrome c reductase or microsomal protein nor does it appear to affect the binding of aniline to cytochrome P-450. Ethylmorphine binding is generally decreased by this treatment. Alterations in the Michaelis constants for these reactions were limited to an increase in the Ks for aniline in pair-fed animals and in the Ks for ethylmorphine in thiamin-deficient rats receiving 1.0 mg mestranol per day.
Paternity tests on confiscated families of eight species of birds of prey were carried out successfully by DNA fingerprinting with 32P-labeled oligonucleotide probes. Variations in the number of hybridized fragments, depending on the species of birds, are observed using the same probe, as well as differences of polymorphism by hybridizing the DNA samples with several oligonucleotide probes.
