Molecular analysis of a neurovirulent murine leukemia virus, {\it ts\/}1

ts1 is a neurovirulent spontaneous temperature-sensitive mutant of Moloney murine leukemia virus TB (MoMuLV-TB). MoMuLV-TB causes T-cell lymphoma or lymphoid leukemia in mice after a long latency period whereas ts1 causes a progressive hindlimb paralytic disease after a much shorter latency period. In previous studies, it had been shown that the temperature-sensitive defect resided in the $env$ gene. At the restrictive temperature, the envelope precursor polyprotein, gPr80$\sp{env}$, is inefficiently processed intracellularly into a heterodimer consisting of two cleavage products, gp70 and Prp15E. This inefficient processing is correlated with neurovirulence. In this study, the nucleotide sequences of the env genes for both ts1 and MoMuLV-TB were determined, and the encoded amino acid sequences were deduced from the DNA sequences. There were four unique amino acid substitutions in the gPr80$\sp{env}$ of ts1. In order to determine which unique amino acid was responsible for the phenotypic characteristics of ts1, a set of hybrid genomes was constructed by exchanging restriction fragments between ts1 and MoMuLV-TB. NIH 3T3 cells were transfected with the hybrid genomes to obtain infectious hybrid viruses. Assays of the hybrid viruses showed that a Val-25$\to$Ile substitution in gPr80$\sp{env}$ was responsible for the temperature sensitivity, inefficient processing, and neurovirulence of ts1. In further studies, the Ile-25 in gPr80$\sp{env}$ was substituted with Thr, Ala, Leu, Gly, and Glu by site-directed mutagenesis to generate a new set of mutant viruses, i.e., ts1-T, -A, -L, -G, and -E, respectively. The rank order of the mutants for temperature sensitivity was: ts1-E $>$ ts1-G $>$ ts1-L $>$ ts1-A $>$ ts1 $>$ ts1-T. The degree of temperature sensitivity of each of the mutants also correlated with the degree of inefficient processing of gPr80$\sp{env}$. The mutant viruses were assayed for neurovirulence. ts1-T caused whole body tremor, ts1-A caused hindlimb paralysis, ts1-L caused paraparesis, but ts1-G and -E were not neurovirulent. These results show that inefficient processing of gPr80$\sp{env}$ is correlated with neurovirulence, but if processing of gPr80$\sp{env}$ is too inefficient there is no neurovirulence. Furthermore, the disease profile of each of the neurovirulent viruses depends on the degree of inefficient processing of gPr80$\sp{env}$. ^

Composition of aerosols collected in the Western Russian Arctic in August-September 1991

In August-September 1991 during the SPASIBA expedition (Scientific Program on the Arctic and Siberian Aquatorium) aboard R/V Yakov Smirnitzky in the Laptev Sea ten samples of aerosols were collected by nylon nets. A combined approach including various analytical techniques, such as single-particle analysis, instrumental neutron activation analysis, and atomic absorption spectrophotometry, was used to study composition of the samples. Mass concentration of coarse-grained (>0.001 mm) insoluble fraction of aerosols ranged from 80 to 460 ng/m**3. In all the samples remains of land vegetation were found to be the dominant component. Organic carbon content of the aerosols ranged from 23 to 49%. Inorganic part of the samples was represented mainly by alumosilicates and quartz. Anthropogenic ''fly ash'' particles were observed in all the samples. Temporal variations of element concentrations resulted from differences in air masses entering the studied area.

Turbulent flux and meteorological measurements during ARCTEX-2006 campaign

This dataset present result from the DFG- funded Arctic-Turbulence-Experiment (ARCTEX-2006) performed by the University of Bayreuth on the island of Svalbard, Norway, during the winter/spring transition 2006. From May 5 to May 19, 2006 turbulent flux and meteorological measurements were performed on the monitoring field near Ny-Ålesund, at 78°55'24'' N, 11°55'15'' E Kongsfjord, Svalbard (Spitsbergen), Norway. The ARCTEX-2006 campaign site was located about 200 m southeast of the settlement on flat snow covered tundra, 11 m to 14 m above sea level. The permanent sites used for this study consisted of the 10 m meteorological tower of the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar- and Marine Research (AWI), the international standardized radiation measurement site of the Baseline Surface Radiation Network (BSRN), the radiosonde launch site and the AWI tethered balloon launch sites. The temporary sites - set up by the University of Bayreuth - were a 6 m meteorological gradient tower, an eddy-flux measurement complex (EF), and a laser-scintillometer section (SLS). A quality assessment and data correction was applied to detect and eliminate specific measurement errors common at a high arctic landscape. In addition, the quality checked sensible heat flux measurements are compared with bulk aerodynamic formulas that are widely used in atmosphere-ocean/land-ice models for polar regions as described in Ebert and Curry (1993, doi:10.1029/93JC00656) and Launiainen and Cheng (1995). These parameterization approaches easily allow estimation of the turbulent surface fluxes from routine meteorological measurements. The data show: - the role of the intermittency of the turbulent atmospheric fluctuation of momentum and scalars, - the existence of a disturbed vertical temperature profile (sharp inversion layer) close to the surface, - the relevance of possible free convection events for the snow or ice melt in the Arctic spring at Svalbard, and - the relevance of meso-scale atmospheric circulation pattern and air-mass advection for the near-surface turbulent heat exchange in the Arctic spring at Svalbard. Recommendations and improvements regarding the interpretation of eddy-flux and laser-scintillometer data as well as the arrangement of the instrumentation under polar distinct exchange conditions and (extreme) weather situations could be derived.

Chemistry of interstitial waters of samples from DSDP Leg 25

Interstitial water analyses from sediments collected during Leg 25 of the Deep Sea Drilling Project have revealed that in the southwest Indian Ocean, great chemical activity exists in sediments in various depositional environments. Variable sedimentation rates allow us to set some interesting boundary conditions on chemical and transport processes in these interstitial waters, particularly with regard to the distribution of dissolved sulfate. In terrigenous rapidly deposited sediments, large depletions are observed in magnesium and potassium, whereas relatively small decreases in dissolved calcium occur. In slowly deposited detrital sediments, also, large decreases in potassium and magnesium coincide with very large calcium increases. In truly pelagic sediments, a one to one replacement of magnesium by calcium is observed in the interstitial waters, presumably due to reactions in the basal sediment layers. Biogenous deposits have great influence on dissolved silica (sponge spicules and radiolarians) and on dissolved strontium (carbonate recrystallization). Otherwise, dissolved silica reflects the clay mineralogy and shows variations which seem particularly dependent on the presence or absence of kaolinite. Variable dissolved manganese values reflect reducing conditions and/or availability of manganese in the solid phases for mobilization in reducing sediments.

Chemical composition of hydrothermal deposits and vulcanites from the Menez Gwen vent field, Mid-Atlantic Ridge

Surface hydrothermal deposits of the shallow-water Menez Gwen vent field located in the rift zone of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge are mostly composed of nonmetalliferous minerals in contrast to sulfide deposits of deep-water fields. Here sulfide minerals occur only in dispersed form. High-temperature sulfide deposits strongly enriched in copper and zinc occur only immediately below the surface of the bottom. This is related to subsurface boiling and phase separation of initial high-temperature hydrothermal ore-bearing solution that ascends from the interior to the floor surface.
