[Studies on the introduction and cultivation of Kaempferia galanga L].

This paper reports a systematic survey of the biological character istics of K. galanga. As a result of investigations on plant density, planting season, fertilization, storage of maternal tubers in winter and qualitative analysis of tubers, etc, cultural measures have been brought forth that suit the local climatic conditions and thus give high yield and quality of products.

Histamine H1 receptor ligands: part II. Synthesis and in vitro pharmacology of 2-[2-(phenylamino)thiazol-4-yl]ethanamine and 2-(2-benzhydrylthiazol-4-yl)ethanamine derivatives.

New 2-[2-(phenylamino)thiazol-4-yl]ethanamine and 2-(2-benzhydrylthiazol-4-yl)ethanamine derivatives were prepared and tested in vitro as H1 receptor antagonists. The compounds with 2-phenylamino substitution with meta-halide substituents at the phenyl ring, showed weak H1-antagonistic activity (pA2: 4.62-5.04) and this activity was completely lost in the case of meta-methyl substituent (pA2 < 4). When the phenylamino group was replaced by benzhydryl groups of classic antihistamines, the resulting compounds exhibited slightly improved H1-antagonistic activity (at the meta-position pA2: 6.38-6.15; at the para-position pA2: 6.04-5.87).

SCPD: a promoter database of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

MOTIVATION: In order to facilitate a systematic study of the promoters and transcriptionally regulatory cis-elements of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae on a genomic scale, we have developed a comprehensive yeast-specific promoter database, SCPD. RESULTS: Currently SCPD contains 580 experimentally mapped transcription factor (TF) binding sites and 425 transcriptional start sites (TSS) as its primary data entries. It also contains relevant binding affinity and expression data where available. In addition to mechanisms for promoter information (including sequence) retrieval and a data submission form, SCPD also provides some simple but useful tools for promoter sequence analysis. AVAILABILITY: SCPD can be accessed from the URL http://cgsigma.cshl.org/jian. The database is continually updated.
