The early detection of spoiling metabolic products in contaminated food is a very important tool to control quality. Some volatile compounds produce unpleasant odours at very low concentrations, making their early detection very challenging. This is the case of 1,3-pentadiene produced by microorganisms through decarboxylation of the preservative sorbate. In this work, we have developed a methodology to use the data produced by a low-cost, compact MWIR (Mid-Wave IR) spectrometry device without moving parts, which is based on a linear array of 128 elements of VPD PbSe coupled to a linear variable filter (LVF) working in the spectral range between 3 and 4.6 ?m. This device is able to analyze food headspace gases through dedicated sample presentation setup. This methodology enables the detection of CO2 and the volatile compound 1,3-pentadiene, as compared to synthetic patrons. Data analysis is based on an automated multidimensional dynamic processing of the MWIR spectra. Principal component and discriminant analysis allow segregating between four yeast strains including producers and no producers. The segregation power is accounted as a measure of the discrimination quality.

The transcription factor, B-cell-specific activator protein (BSAP), represses the murine immunoglobulin heavy-chain 3' enhancer 3' alpha E(hs1,2) in B cells. Analysis of various 3'alpha E deletional constructs indicates that sequences flanking a and b BSAP-binding sites are essential for appropriate regulation of the enhancer. An octamer motif 5' of the a site and a specific G-rich motif 3' of the b site were identified by competition in electrophoretic mobility-shift assays and methylation-interference foot-printing analysis. Site-directed mutagenesis of either the octamer or G-rich sites resulted in the complete release of repression of 3' alpha E(hs1,2), implicating these two motifs in the repression of this enhancer in B cells. However, when both BSAP-binding sites were mutated, the octamer and G-rich motifs functioned as activators. Moreover, in plasma cells, when BSAP is not expressed, 3' alpha E(hs1,2) is active, and its activity depends on the presence of the other two factors. These results suggest that in B cells, 3' alpha E (hs1,2) is down-regulated by the concerted actions of BSAP, octamer, and G-rich DNA-binding proteins. Supporting this notion of concerted repression, a physical interaction between BSAP and octamer-binding proteins was demonstrated using glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins. Thus, concerted repression of 3' alpha E (hs1,2) in B cells provides a sensitive mechanism by which this enhancer, either individually or as part of a locus-controlling region, is highly responsive to any of several participating factors.

The dorsoventral axis is established early in Xenopus development and may involve signaling by Wnts, a family of Wnt1-protooncogene-related proteins. The protein kinase shaggy functions in the wingless/Wnt signaling pathway, which operates during Drosophila development. To assess the role of a closely related kinase, glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK-3 beta), in vertebrate embryogenesis, we cloned a cDNA encoding a Xenopus homolog of GSK-3 beta (XGSK-3 beta). XGSK-3 beta-specific transcripts were detected by Northern analysis in Xenopus eggs and early embryos. Microinjection of the mRNA encoding a catalytically inactive form of rat GSK-3 beta into a ventrovegetal blastomere of eight-cell embryos caused ectopic formation of a secondary body axis containing a complete set of dorsal and anterior structures. Furthermore, in isolated ectodermal explants, the mutant GSK-3 beta mRNA activated the expression of neural tissue markers. Wild-type XGSK-3 beta mRNA suppressed the dorsalizing effects of both the mutated GSK-3 beta and Xenopus dishevelled, a proposed upstream signaling component of the same pathway. These results strongly suggest that XGSK-3 beta functions to inhibit dorsoventral axis formation in the embryo and provide evidence for conservation of the Wnt signaling pathway in Drosophila and vertebrates.
