    Notes: Summary Behaviourist Learning Theory and Utility Theory. Comparisons between theories are rare, especially in social theory which is believed to be a “multi-paradigmatic” science. Against this prevailing impression it is shown that there are logically reconstructable inter-theory-relations at least between different basic theories of individual action. Following Wladyslaw Krajewski a formal model of theory-approximation is developed and applied to behaviourist learning theory and utility theory. Comparing both theories leads to the result that the latter has to be preferred to Behaviourism. That utility theory has a richer content than learning theory helps to explain why George Caspar Homans explanatory programme which leans on a Skinnerian version of learning theory finally did not succeed in becoming the leading approach in social science.

    Notes: Summary Hybridization of restriction enzymedigested genomic guppy (Poecilia reticulata, Poeciliidae) DNA with the oligonucleotide probe (GACA)4 revealed a male-specific simple tandem repeat locus, which defines the Y chromosome in outbred populations. The related (GATA)4 probe identifies certain males with the red color phenotype. In contrast only in two out of eight laboratory guppy strains was the typical (GACA)4 band observed. By specific staining of the constitutive heterochromatin one pair of chromosomes could also be identified as the sex chromosomes, confirming the XX/XY mechanism of sex determination. All males exhibit Y chromosomes with a large region of telomeric heterochromatin. Hybridization in situ with nonradioactively labeled oligonucleotide probes localized the (GACA)n repeats to this heterochromatic portion. Together these results may be regarded as a recent paradigm for the differentiation of heteromorphic sex chromosomes from a pair of autosomes during the course of evolution. According to the fish model system, this may have happened in several independent consecutive steps.

    Notes: [Auszug] We induced ordered arrays of the NT by a modification of the phospholipid monolayer technique5'6 (Fig. 1 legend). Botulinum NT serotype B preferentially formed ordered arrays on the surfaces of vesicles and induced a shape change from their original spherical form to closed tubes (Fig. 1). ...

    Notes: Summary An expression vector was constructed containing the entire bovine papilloma virus (BPV-1) genome and part of the a-actin gene of Xenopus laevis cloned in the antisense orientation into the neomycin resistance gene under the control of the herpes simplex virus (HSV) thymidine kinase (TK) promoter. When this vector is microinjected into X. laevis embryos it replicates extrachromosomally, at least up to the tadpole stage, and a fusion RNA is synthesized after the mid blastula transition (MBT). The expression of the antisense gene results in a morphological abnormality of somites demonstrating that antisense RNA generated by an episomal replicating expression vector can inhibit the expression of a selected gene during early embryogenesis of X. laevis.

    Notes: Abstract Gene libraries of the micronucleus and the macronuclear anlagen of the polytene chromosome stage of Stylonychia lemnae were screened for internal C4A4 repeats. The number of these internal repeats was shown to be identical in both kinds of nuclei. Analysis of macronuclear sequences associated with C4A4 in the polytene chromosomes showed that several macronuclear DNA sequences are clustered. However, interspersed between short exons of one gene are located exons of several other genes, i.e. the exon of one gene is an intron for several other genes.

    Notes: Summary A patient with azoospermia and a Y isochromosome is described. The breakpoint producing this i(Y) was within the terminal short arm of the Y chromosome. Lymphocyte cultures from peripheral blood contained a high proportion of 45,X cells and cells with different Y-chromosome rearrangements. The i(Y) had either a monocentric or dicentric appearance. In dicentrics, anti-kinetochore immunofluorescence was present at both centromeres. However, this was also true for most of the functional monocentrics (pseudodicentrics). Kinetochore staining was generally positive at the site of the inactive centromeres; only a minority of the suppressed centromeres had lost their antigenic properties. Permanently growing lymphoblasts consistently showed a monocentric i(Y) with only one fluorescing kinetochore; the immunonegative Y centromere did not recover antigenicity.

    Notes: Summary Nonradioactive in situ hybridization with the biotin-labeled chromosome 1-specific probe pUC1.77 was performed on human mitotic and meiotic chromosomes, and on sperm nuclei. The streptavidine-horseradish-peroxidase and diaminobenzidine detection system demonstrated heteromorphisms in the Iq12 heterochromatic region, not only in mitotic cells but also in mature sperm heads. The localization of chromosome 1 could be traced through all meiotic stages and in the sperm nuclei. The frequency of chromosome 1 disomy in human sperm, as indicated by two distinct hybridization signals, was calculated to be 0.41%.

    Notes: Summary Tandemly organized simple repetitive sequences are widespread in all eukaryotes. The organization of the simple tetrameric (GACA)n sequences at chromosomal loci has been investigated using in situ hybridization with chemically pure oligonucleotide probes. Both biotin- and digoxigenin-attached (GACA)4 probes reveal specific hybridization signals over the short arms of all acrocentric autosomes in man. In the other examined primates the NOR-bearing autosomes could be detected by in situ hybridization with (GACA)4, and a major concentration of the GACA simple repeats could be observed on the Y chromosome in the gibbon and mouse; the hybridization site in the gibbon Y chromosome coincides particularly with the silver-stainable NOR. In the past, accumulations of (GACA)n sequences were demonstrated mainly on vertebrate sex chromosomes. Therefore, the organization of GACA simple sequences is discussed in the context of their evolutionary potential accumulation and the possible linkage with the primate rDNA loci.

    Notes: Summary Blood samples of an 8-year-old girl with Turner syndrome were examined using cytogenetic and molecular methods. Chromosomal analyses revealed a mosaic karyotype consisting of 25% 47,X,der(X),+r(X) and 75% 46,X,der(X) cells. Southern blot hybridizations with Y-specific DNA probes excluded a Y chromosomal origin of the small ring chromosome. In situ hybridization using DNA probe pXBR showed it to be X-derived. Examination of C-, Q-, and R-banding patterns indicated that the der(X) chromosome probably arose by a translocation event.

    Notes: Abstract In lymphocyte cultures, the number of aneuploid cell nuclei increases with proband age mainly because of the loss of sex chromosomes. Since one possible cause of aneuploidy in cell nuclei is chromosomal lag at anaphase, with subsequent chromosome loss via micronucleus formation, we scored 5000 interphase nuclei from ten female and ten male probands for associated micronuclei. Whereas, in young (〈 10 years) probands, an average of 0.15% interphase nuclei exhibited micronuclei, the frequency rose to 0.46% in older probands (〉 70 years). In situ hybridizations with X-specific and Y-specific DNA probes were carried out, and the signal distribution in ten nuclei with associated micronuclei was documented for each donor. Our results indicate that the exclusion of sex chromosomes into micronuclei doubles during a human life, from 11% in young probands to 20% in old donors.
