In experiments reported some years ago the enzyme-catalyzed exchange of the amide group of glutamine and asparagine with 15N ammonia was demonstrated but an exchange of the amide groups of protein bound dicarboxylic amino acids could not be explored owing to the unfavorable experimental conditions1 . Recently the problem of the metabolism of protein-amide groups was approached again with the aid of 14C-labeled amines, such as ethanolamine or cadaverine. Soluble protein fractions obtained from sucrose homogenates (o.2sM) of the livers of guinea pigs, rats, mice, and rabbits by centrifugation at roo,ooo X g were incubated in the presence of Ca++ …

Chemistry Faculty Publications

The synthesis of a phosphatidyl tripeptide has been accomplished. It was prepared by (a) phosphorylation of D-α,β-distearin with phenylphosphoryl dichloride and pyridine, (b) esterification of the resulting distearoylL- α-glycerylphenylphosphoryl chloride with N-carbobenzoxy-L-serylglycylglycine benzyl ester in the presence of lutidine, and (c) removal of the protective groups by catalytic hydrogenolysis. The O-( distearoyl-L-α-glycerylphosphoryl)- L-serylglycylglycine was obtained in an over-all yield of 12 per cent. The synthesis of N-carbobenzoxy-L-serylglycylglycine benzyl ester, for which two procedures have been reported, has been simplified considerably by condensing N -carbobenzoxy-L-serine with glycylglycine benzyl ester by means of N ,N' -dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The phosphatidyl tripeptide is cleaved by …

Medial Pleistocene Fossil Vertebrate Localities In Nebraska, C. Bertrand Schultz, Lloyd G. Tanner Jan 1957

Medial Pleistocene Fossil Vertebrate Localities In Nebraska, C. Bertrand Schultz, Lloyd G. Tanner

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum (1924–2023)

The accurate geologic dating of Pleistocene vertebrate localities which occur outside the glaciated regions has always been difficult. Several new fossil localities in Nebraska now provide data for a better understanding of the paleoecology and faunal evidence of the medial Pleistocene of the Great Plains region.

A fossil quarry, containing the remains of both vertebrates and invertebrates, has been discovered in south-central Nebraska (11/2 miles south and west of Angus in Nuckolls County). The fossils are preserved in Sappa silts in a lime concentration zone (C horizon) of a Yarmouth paleosol. The calcium carbonate appears to have been responsible for …


Protein And Fat Requirements Of Baby Pigs, E. R. Peo, Jr., G. C. Ashton, V. C. Speer, D. V. Catron Jan 1957

Protein And Fat Requirements Of Baby Pigs, E. R. Peo, Jr., G. C. Ashton, V. C. Speer, D. V. Catron

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Present day research in swine nutrition with its early weaning programs and its use of the baby pig in biological assays has necessitated the determination of the nutritional requirements of the baby pig. The requirements for two of these nutrients (protein and fat) have not been clearly established. Early studies on the protein and fat requirements of baby pigs were conducted with liquid synthetic milk diets, which were formulated generally on the basis of the composition of sow milk.

Field Guide To Aid In Recognition Of Natural Triploid Aspen, Philip N. Joranson, Dean W. Einspahr, J P. Van Buijtenen

Aspen Bibliography

Swedish experience with the genetic improvement of the European aspen (Populus tremula L.), a species which is closely kin to our North American quaking aspen (P. tremuloides Michx.), suggests that the rate of volume increment and the length of fiber tracheids might both be increased in North American aspen by finding or producing trees which possess a triple set, rather than the usual double set, of "chromosomes". Chromosomes (Figure 1) are found within and inner region--the nucleus--of each of the millions of cells formed during the growth of a tree.


A Critical Study Of The Chromosomes In Two Species Of Myxophyceae, John Thomas Mullins Jan 1957

A Critical Study Of The Chromosomes In Two Species Of Myxophyceae, John Thomas Mullins

Master's Theses

The Myxophyoeae or blue-green algae have been frequent subjects for cytological investigation since Schmitz (1879) first called attention to two regions in the protoplast. Since that publication the morphological and chemical nature of the genetic material and the mechanism of cell division in the Myxophyceae has been a controversial subject, The evidence that has been presented is, tor the most part, more voluminous than enlightening.

This investigation was undertaken in order to verify the methods and check the results obtained with the smear technique by Strickland (1948). Additional methods were also applied which might enable a more critical evaluation of …


Nebraska Deer, William Bailey Jr., George Schildman, Phillip Agee, C. G. Pritchard Jan 1957

Nebraska Deer, William Bailey Jr., George Schildman, Phillip Agee, C. G. Pritchard

Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: Publications

IN COMMON with the experience of most states, Nebraska's deer herds were reduced to a very low level by excessive harvests in our early history. Most American big-game animals were overharvested in the early history of this nation because of commercialization. Buffalo were killed for their hides, deer for their meat. This slaughter continued as long as the hunter (or poacher) could sell his take at a profit. Modem game management and public opinion reversed this trend. Deer are on the way back all over America, and in some states the protection-complex was so strong that deer were restored to …
