Variations au cours de la journée de l'incorporation in vivo de la leucine tritiée dans les protéines du cervelet et du cerveau du jeune rat normal et hypothyroïdien. Daily variations of the in vivo [3H] leucine incorporation into the cerebellar and cerebral proteins of the normal and hypothyroid young rat [(author's transl)].

In the normal and hypothyroid 6-day-old rat, the specific radioactivity (RSA) and the relative RSA (ratio of the RSA to the [3H] lecine concentration of the acido soluble phase) of the cerebral and cerebellar proteins, changes during the day synchronally. They show a maximum at 15.00 h and a minimum at 0.300 h. At all stages studied, these values are significantly lower in the hyothyroid animals than in normal ones.

Probing the primary donor environment in the histidineM200-->leucine and histidineL173-->leucine heterodimer mutants of Rhodobacter capsulatus by light-induced Fourier transform infrared difference spectroscopy.

Light-induced P+QB-/PQB FTIR difference spectra of reaction centers (RCs) have been obtained from chromatophores lacking light-harvesting B800-850 antenna for Rhodobacter capsulatus wild type (WT) and for the two mutants HisM200-->Leu and HisL173-->Leu. The primary donor (P) in both mutants consists of a bacteriochlorophyll-bacteriopheophytin heterodimer. The most prominent difference between the WT and the mutant spectra is in the 1600-1200-cm-1 region. The WT spectrum displays large positive bands at approximately 1290, 1500-1430, and 1580-1530 cm-1. These three bands are either small or altogether absent in the heterodimer spectra. In addition, both heterodimer spectra compare well with the electrochemically generated BChla+/BChla spectrum [Mäntele, W.G., Wollenweber, A. M., Nabedryk, E., & Breton, J. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 85, 8468-8472]. These observations indicate that the positive charge is localized on the monomeric BChl in the heterodimers. The overall shape of the ester and keto C = O signals in the BChla+/BChla spectrum is maintained in the in situ spectra although significant differences are observed in the frequency, width, and splitting of the bands. The shape of the signal at 1757/1744 cm-1 in HisL173-->Leu is comparable to the 1751/1737-cm-1 signal of BChla+/BChla in tetrahydrofuran, indicating a free 10a ester C = O of PM in HisL173-->Leu. The reduced amplitude of the negative 1740-cm-1 feature in both HisM200-->Leu and WT spectra suggests a hydrogen-bonded 10a ester C = O for PL.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
