The biochemical properties of the ATPase activity of a 70-kDa heat shock protein (Hsp70) are governed by the C-terminal domains

The cytosolic 70-kDa heat shock proteins (Hsp70s), Ssa and Ssb, of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are functionally distinct. Here we report that the ATPase activities of these two classes of Hsp70s exhibit different kinetic properties. The Ssa ATPase has properties similar to those of other Hsp70s studied, such as DnaK and Hsc70. Ssb, however, has an unusually low steady-state affinity for ATP but a higher maximal velocity. In addition, the ATPase activity of Hsp70s, like that of Ssa1, depends on the addition of K+ whereas Ssb activity does not. Suprisingly, the isolated 44-kDa ATPase domain of Ssb has a Km and Vmax for ATP hydrolysis similar to those of Ssa, rather than those of full length Ssb. Analysis of Ssa/Ssb fusion proteins demonstrates that the Ssb peptide-binding domain fused to the Ssa ATPase domain generates an ATPase of relatively high activity and low steady-state affinity for ATP similar to that of native Ssb. Therefore, at least some of the biochemical differences between the ATPases of these two classes of Hsp70s are not intrinsic to the ATPase domain itself. The differential influence of the peptide-binding domain on the ATPase domain may, in part, explain the functional uniqueness of these two classes of Hsp70s.

NusA interferes with interactions between the nascent RNA and the C-terminal domain of the alpha subunit of RNA polymerase in Escherichia coli transcription complexes.

The effects of NusA on the RNA polymerase contacts made by nucleotides at internal positions in the nascent RNA in Escherichia coli transcription complexes were analyzed by using the photocrosslinking nucleotide analog 5-[(4-azidophenacyl) thio]-UMP. It was placed at nucleotides between +6 and +15 in RNA transcribed from the phage lambda PR' promoter. Crosslinks of analog in these positions in RNAs which contained either 15, 28, 29, or 49 nt were examined. Contacts between the nascent RNA and proteins in the transcription complex were analyzed as the RNA was elongated, by placing the crosslinker nearest the 5' end of the RNA 10, 23, 24, or 44 nt away from the 3' end. The beta or beta' subunit of polymerase, and NusA when added, were contacted by RNA from 15 to 49 nt long. When the upstream crosslinker was 24 nt from the 3" end of the RNA (29-nt RNA), alpha was also contacted in the absence of NusA. The addition of NusA prevented RNA crosslinking to alpha. When the crosslinker was 44 nt from the 3' end (49-nt RNA), alpha crosslinks were still observed, but crosslinks to beta or beta' and NusA were greatly diminished. RNA crosslinking to alpha, and loss of this crosslink when NusA was added, was observed in the presence of NusB, NusE, and NusG and when transcription was carried out in the presence of an E. coli S100 cell extract. Peptide mapping localized the RNA interactions to the C-terminal domain of alpha.

La caminería en al-Andalus (ss. VIII-XV J.C.): consideraciones metodológicas, históricas y administrativas para su estudio

Este estudio es una síntesis de las últimas aportaciones acerca de las vías en al-Andalus (ss. VIII-XV), cuya estructura inicial es herencia de la época romana. Dadas las limitaciones que imponen los escasos datos que hallamos en las fuentes árabes y los pocos restos camineros conocidos, se hace necesario emplear una nueva metodología de investigación: Se aborda el objeto como un estudio global, no sólo de los caminos, sino de todos los elementos interrelacionados con ellos, denominados como "espacios viales". Luego se presenta la indisoluble relación de los "espacios viales" con los castillos y torres ("espacios de control y defensa") en al-Andalus, como los vigilantes de los caminos, y se enuncia la toponimia árabe relacionada tanto con los "espacios viales" como con los "espacios de control y defensa". Finalmente, se recogen los datos que las diversas crónicas árabes nos proporcionan acerca de la política viaria en al-Andalus a lo largo del tiempo, así como sobre quién era el responsable de velar por el buen estado de los tramos viales.

Electrochemical reactions of catechol, methylcatechol and dopamine at tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) thin film electrodes

The electrochemical reactions of dopamine, catechol and methylcatechol were investigated at tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) thin film electrodes. In order to better understand the reaction mechanisms of these molecules, cyclic voltammetry with varying scan rates was carried out at different pH values in H2SO4 and PBS solutions. The results were compared to the same redox reactions taking place at glassy carbon (GC) electrodes. All three catechols exhibited quasi-reversible behavior with sluggish electron transfer kinetics at the ta-C electrode. At neutral and alkaline pH, rapid coupled homogeneous reactions followed the oxidation of the catechols to the corresponding o-quinones and led to significant deterioration of the electrode response. At acidic pH, the extent of deterioration was considerably lower. All the redox reactions showed significantly faster electron transfer kinetics at the GC electrode and it was less susceptible toward surface passivation. An EC mechanism was observed for the oxidation of dopamine at both ta-C and GC electrodes and the formation of polydopamine was suspected to cause the passivation of the electrodes.

Proposta de implementação de um sistema de gestão de segurança e saúde no trabalho no C. S. C. R. de Botão

De acordo com a Agência Europeia para a Segurança e Saúde no Trabalho “todos os anos, mais de 5.550 pessoas perdem a vida na União Europeia em consequência de acidentes de trabalho”. As organizações todos os anos perdem muitas horas de trabalho devido a esses acidentes, o que se traduz em perdas económicas e financeiras, que podem comprometer a competitividade e produtividade das mesmas. Num período em que a situação económico-financeira da maioria das organizações tem vindo a ser comprometida derivado à situação de crise que atravessa em particular o nosso país, é da máxima importância analisar todos os campos constituintes da organização e avaliar o seu risco e impacto de cada um no seu todo, assim sendo perante esta realidade a Segurança e Saúde no Trabalho é também um dos temas que deve ser tido em conta e não menosprezado. Este tema tem vindo a ser cada vez mais debatido pelas organizações e assiste-se a uma mudança de ideias relativamente à sua importância no contexto organizacional pelos efeitos colaterais positivos bem como por obrigatoriedade legal consagrada nos artigos 59.º e 64.º da Constituição da República Portuguesa. Assim, este trabalho de projeto visa avaliar o Centro social, Cultural e Recreativo de Botão em termos de Segurança e Saúde no Trabalho, com o objetivo de implementar um Sistema de Gestão de Segurança e Saúde no Trabalho, de modo a identificar e minimizar os riscos no local de trabalho, melhorar as condições de trabalho e contribuir para a Instituição cumprir com o seu dever legal e moral. Este trabalho de projeto foi concebido tendo por base visitas às instalações da organização, comunicação com os trabalhadores e responsáveis pela mesma e elaboração de listas de verificação tendo em consideração os requisitos legais e outros aplicáveis em matéria de Segurança e Saúde no Trabalho de forma a atingir o objetivo.

(Table 2) Physical properties at DSDP Holes 44-391 and 76-534

Laboratory measurements on sediment samples and density well logs run at DSDP Site 534 in the Blake-Bahama Basin were used to establish an in situ velocity and density structure. Synthetic seismograms were generated for comparison to reprocessed seismic reflection data in the vicinity of the Site. Uncertainties in the relative positions of the hole and seismic reflection data, velocity corrections, and the composition of the unrecovered section were evaluated. In light of the errors and compressed section, no unique correlation of the seismic reflection data to the drill hole is completely defensible either in this chapter or elsewhere. The preferred correlation resulting from this exercise is as follows, with the Site 534 report correlation shown in parentheses where different. Horizon beta', 887 m; Horizon beta, 950 m (975 m); Horizon C , 1202 m (1250 m); Horizon C, 1268 m (1340 m); Horizon D', 1342 m (1432 m); Horizon D, 1550 m (1552 m). The major differences in these correlations arise from the use of slightly different velocities and hole location relative to the seismic profiles. The Site 534 report results rely on hole placement on a basement flank, whereas in this chapter we locate it within a basement depression still within the uncertainty of the navigation. The Site 534 report also uses drilling rates, CDP velocity analyses, sonobuoy data, and previous similar drilling correlation methods used at Site 391, along with other geologic considerations in arriving at differing results. Although the correlation method used in this investigation is more objective and the hole location uncertainties better defined, in order to have confidence in any results we will require drilling in areas where reflections are either more widely spaced or where we have better vertical velocity control in the hole.
