Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in patients, causes systemic sequelae, and predisposes patients to long-term cardiovascular disease. To date, studies of the effects of AKI on cardiovascular outcomes have only been performed in male mice. We recently demonstrated that male mice developed diastolic dysfunction, hypertension and reduced cardiac ATP levels versus sham 1 year after AKI. The effects of female sex on long-term cardiac outcomes after AKI are unknown. Therefore, we examined the 1-year cardiorenal outcomes following a single episode of bilateral renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in female C57BL/6 mice using a model with similar severity of AKI and performed concomitantly to recently published male cohorts. To match the severity of AKI between male and female mice, females received 34 min of ischemia time compared to 25 min in males. Serial renal function, echocardiograms and blood pressure assessments were performed throughout the 1-year study. Renal histology, and cardiac and plasma metabolomics and mitochondrial function in the heart and kidney were evaluated at 1 year. Measured glomerular filtration rates (GFR) were similar between male and female mice throughout the 1-year study period. One year after AKI, female mice had preserved diastolic function, normal blood pressure, and preserved levels of cardiac ATP. Compared to males, females demonstrated pathway enrichment in arginine metabolism and amino acid related energy production in both the heart and plasma, and glutathione in the plasma. Cardiac mitochondrial respiration in Complex I of the electron transport chain demonstrated improved mitochondrial function in females compared to males, regardless of AKI or sham. This is the first study to examine the long-term cardiac effects of AKI on female mice and indicate that there are important sex-related cardiorenal differences. The role of female sex in cardiovascular outcomes after AKI merits further investigation.

Abstract
This is the first long-term (1-year) study to evaluate both the kidney and systemic sequelae of acute kidney injury in mice. Serial kidney function was measured via transcutaneous glomerular filtration rate. AKI resulted in diastolic dysfunction, followed by hypertension. Ejection fraction was preserved. One year after AKI, cardiac ATP levels were reduced compared with sham controls. Mice treated with the histone deacetylase inhibitor, ITF2357, maintained normal diastolic function normal blood pressure, and normal cardiac ATP after AKI. Metabolomics data suggest that treatment with ITF2357 preserves pathways related to energy metabolism.
Growing epidemiological data demonstrate that acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with long-term cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Here, the authors present a 1-year study of cardiorenal outcomes following bilateral ischemia-reperfusion injury in male mice. These data suggest that AKI causes long-term dysfunction in the cardiac metabolome, which is associated with diastolic dysfunction and hypertension. Mice treated with the histone deacetylase inhibitor, ITF2357, had preservation of cardiac function and remained normotensive throughout the study. ITF2357 did not protect against the development of kidney fibrosis after AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Recent findings have highlighted the detrimental influence of maternal overnutrition and obesity on fetal development and early life development. However, there are no evidence-based guidelines regarding the optimal strategy for dietary intervention before pregnancy. SUBJECTS/METHODS We used a murine model to study whether switching from a high-fat (HF) diet to a normal-fat (NF) diet (H1N group) 1 week before pregnancy could lead to in utero reprogramming of female offspring obesity; comparator groups were offspring given a consistent maternal HF group or NF group until weaning. After weaning, all female offspring were given the HF diet for either 9 or 12 weeks before being killed humanely. RESULTS H1N treatment did not result in maternal weight loss before pregnancy. NF offsprings were neither obese nor glucose intolerant during the entire experimental period. H1N offsprings were most obese after the 12-week postweaning HF diet and displayed glucose intolerance earlier than HF offsprings. Our mechanistic study showed reduced adipocyte insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) and hepatic IRS2 expression and increased adipocyte p-Ser(636/639) and p-Ser(612) of H1N or HF offspring compared with that in the NF offspring. Among all groups, the H1N offspring had lowest level of IRS1 and the highest levels of p-Ser(636/639) and p-Ser(612) in gonadal adipocyte. In addition, the H1N offspring further reduced the expression of Glut4 and Glut2, vs those of the HF offspring, which was lower compared with the NF offspring. There were also enhanced expression of genes inhibiting glycogenesis and decreased hepatic glycogen in H1N vs HF or NF offspring. Furthermore, we showed extremely higher expression of lipogenesis and adipogenesis genes in gonadal adipocytes of H1N offspring compared with all other groups. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that a transition from an HF diet to an NF diet shortly before pregnancy, without resulting in maternal weight loss, is not necessarily beneficial and may have deleterious effects on offspring.

Abstract
5-Fluorouracil (5-FU)-associated neurotoxicity is uncommon; symptoms may occur abruptly or more gradually during the course of chemotherapy. Peripheral neuropathy with 5-FU therapy has only rarely been reported. Two patients treated in a phase I trial of oral 5-FU, leucovorin and eniluracil, an inhibitor of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), developed delayed onset symptoms of unsteady gait and reduced sensation in the legs. Magnetic resonance imaging scans of the brain and neurologic examination did not support a CNS basis for the condition. Electromyograms and nerve conduction studies revealed sensorimotor polyneuropathy. Other common etiologies of peripheral neuropathy were excluded. The neurological condition of these patients stabilized after 5-FU dose reduction and partial resolution gradually occurred when protocol therapy was stopped. Although CNS symptoms may rarely complicate 5-FU therapy, peripheral neuropathy is unexpected. Patients with DPD deficiency treated with conventional doses of 5-FU typically develop acute CNS toxicity shortly after therapy, accompanied by extremely high systemic exposure to 5-FU. Patients with normal 5-FU clearance may also experience CNS toxicity, particularly with high-dose schedules, and both parent drug and its catabolites may be contributory. Since DPD was profoundly inhibited during eniluracil therapy in these two patients, it is likely that 5-FU or its active metabolites were contributing factors to the peripheral neuropathy.

Abstract
The ubiquitously expressed basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH)-PAS protein ARNT (arylhydrocarbon receptor nuclear transporter) forms transcriptionally active heterodimers with a variety of other bHLH-PAS proteins, including HIF-1alpha (hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha) and AHR (arylhydrocarbon receptor). These complexes regulate gene expression in response to hypoxia and xenobiotics, respectively, and mutation of the murine Arnt locus results in embryonic death by day 10.5 associated with placental, vascular, and hematopoietic defects. The closely related protein ARNT2 is highly expressed in the central nervous system and kidney and also forms complexes with HIF-1alpha and AHR. To assess unique roles for ARNT2 in development, and reveal potential functional overlap with ARNT, we generated a targeted null mutation of the murine Arnt2 locus. Arnt2(-/-) embryos die perinatally and exhibit impaired hypothalamic development, phenotypes previously observed for a targeted mutation in the murine bHLH-PAS gene Sim1 (Single-minded 1), and consistent with the recent proposal that ARNT2 and SIM1 form an essential heterodimer in vivo [Michaud, J. L., DeRossi, C., May, N. R., Holdener, B. C. & Fan, C. (2000) Mech. Dev. 90, 253-261]. In addition, cultured Arnt2(-/-) neurons display decreased hypoxic induction of HIF-1 target genes, demonstrating formally that ARNT2/HIF-1alpha complexes regulate oxygen-responsive genes. Finally, a strong genetic interaction between Arnt and Arnt2 mutations was observed, indicating that either gene can fulfill essential functions in a dose-dependent manner before embryonic day 8.5. These results demonstrate that Arnt and Arnt2 have both unique and overlapping essential functions in embryonic development.

Abstract
PURPOSE Fluorouracil (5-FU) given as a weekly, high-dose 24-hour infusion is active and tolerable. We evaluated an oral regimen of eniluracil (which inactivates dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase [DPD]), 5-FU, and leucovorin to simulate this schedule. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients received a single 24-hour infusion of 5-FU (2,300 mg/m(2) on day 2) with leucovorin (15 mg orally [PO] bid on days 1 through 3) to provide reference pharmacokinetic data. Two weeks later, patients began treatment with eniluracil (20 mg) and leucovorin (15 mg) (PO bid on days 1 through 3) and 5-FU (10 to 15 mg/m(2) PO bid on day 2). RESULTS Dose-limiting toxicity (diarrhea, neutropenia, and fatigue) was seen with 5-FU 15 mg/m(2) PO bid on day 2 given weekly for either 6 of 8 weeks or 3 of 4 weeks, whereas five of seven patients tolerated 5-FU 10 mg/m(2) PO bid given weekly for 3 of 4 weeks. Eniluracil led to a 35-fold reduction in 5-FU clearance. Fluoro-beta-alanine, a 5-FU catabolite, was not detected in plasma during oral 5-FU-eniluracil therapy. DPD activity was markedly suppressed in all patients during eniluracil therapy; the inactivation persisted after the last eniluracil dose; percentages of baseline values were 1.8% on day 5, 4.5% on day 12, and 23.6% on day 19. CONCLUSION The recommended oral dosage of 5-FU (10 mg/m(2) PO bid) given with eniluracil and leucovorin is approximately 115-fold lower than the reference dosage for 24-hour infusional 5-FU. This difference is greater than expected given the reduction in 5-FU clearance. DPD inactivation persisted for several weeks after completion of eniluracil therapy.

Abstract
The Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1 (HIF-1) activates the transcription of many genes required for cellular and organismal responses to oxygen deprivation. The HIF-1 complex is composed of the ubiquitously expressed basic helix-loop-helix/PAS (bHLH/PAS) proteins HIF-1alpha and Arylhydrocarbon Receptor Nuclear Translocator (ARNT). ARNT2 is a conserved ARNT homolog that is highly expressed in neurons, suggesting that ARNT2/HIF-1alpha heterodimers mediate transcriptional responses to oxygen deprivation in the nervous system. We show here that ARNT2 forms functional HIF complexes in vivo, and that ARNT2 restores hypoxia-induced gene expression to ARNT-deficient ES cells and hepatocytes. Formation of neural ARNT2/HIF-1alpha complexes in Arnt(-/-) ES cell-derived teratocarcinomas may explain why these tumors express VEGF, vascularize and grow efficiently, in contrast to ARNT-deficient hepatomas. Interestingly, all neural cell types studied accumulate both ARNT- and ARNT2-containing HIF complexes. We conclude that ARNT2 forms functional HIF complexes in neurons and plays an integral role in hypoxic responses in the CNS.

Abstract
Despite the perception that standard 5-fluorouracil/folinic acid (5-FU/FA) (425 mg/m2 per day and 20 mg/m2 per day intravenously once daily x 5 every 4 or 5 weeks) is well tolerated, we have been impressed by toxicity seen and frequent need for dose modification. We performed a retrospective analysis to quantitate the proportion of patients experiencing toxicity and attempted to identify associated clinical characteristics. One hundred thirty-four patients received 5-FU/FA at standard doses described by the Mayo regimen. Patient characteristics were as follows: female 35%, median age 66 years, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status less than or equal to 2, 96%. Sixty-eight percent received chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Forty-seven patients (35%+/-8%) experienced significant toxicity and were unable to receive the second cycle as scheduled: 76% required dose reduction, 11% discontinued therapy (including two toxic deaths), 11% discontinued therapy during the first cycle, and 2% required dose delay. Logistic regression was used to explore the following as predictors of toxicity: age, sex, performance status, adjuvant versus metastatic setting, prior chemotherapy, prior radiation, mean corpuscular volume, red blood cell distribution width, albumin, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase, bilirubin, and calculated creatinine clearance. No clinical characteristic was found to predict toxicity. Only high bilirubin approached statistical significance. We conclude that standard 5-FU/FA, when used in the general population, is associated with significant toxicity. Known clinical characteristics are not helpful in predicting toxicity. The lack of previous formal phase I evaluation of this regimen of 5-FU/FA raises concerns regarding its safety and generalizability in clinical practice.

Abstract
Phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan have a dual biosynthetic role in plants; they are required for protein synthesis and are also precursors to a number of aromatic secondary metabolites critical to normal development and stress responses. Whereas much has been learned in recent years about the genetic control of tryptophan biosynthesis in Arabidopsis and other plants, relatively little is known about the genetic regulation of phenylalanine and tyrosine synthesis. We have isolated, characterized and determined the expression of Arabidopsis thaliana genes encoding chorismate mutase, the enzyme catalyzing the first committed step in phenylalanine and tyrosine synthesis. Three independent Arabidopsis chorismate mutase cDNAs were isolated by functional complementation of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutation. Two of these cDNAs have been reported independently (Eberhard et al., 1993. FEBS 334, 233-236; Eberhard et al., 1996. Plant J. 10, 815-821), but the third (designated CM-3) represents a novel gene. The different organ-specific expression patterns of these cDNAs, their regulation in response to pathogen infiltration, as well as the different enzymatic characteristics of the proteins they encode are also described. Together, these data suggest that each isoform may play a distinct physiological role in coordinating chorismate mutase activity with developmental and environmental signals.

Abstract
Plants transport water and nutrients through a complex vascular network comprised of interconnected, specialized cell types organized in discrete bundles. To identify genetic determinants of vascular tissue patterning, we conducted a screen for mutants with altered vascular bundle organization in Arabidopsis cotyledons. Mutations in two genes, CVP1 and CVP2 (for cotyledon vascular pattern), specifically disrupt the normal pattern of vascular bundles in cotyledons, mature leaves, and inflorescence stems. The spatial distribution of the procambium, the precursor to mature vascular tissue, is altered in cvp1 and cvp2 embryos, suggesting that CVP1 and CVP2 act at a very early step in vascular patterning. Similarly, in developing stems of cvp1 and leaves of cvp2, the pattern of vascular differentiation is defective, but the maturation of individual vascular cells appears to be normal. There are no discernible alterations in cell morphology in cvp2 mutants. In contrast, cvp1 mutants are defective in directional orientation of the provascular strand, resulting in a failure to establish uniformly aligned vascular cells, and they also show a reduction in vascular cell elongation. Neither cvp1 nor cvp2 mutants displayed altered auxin perception, biosynthesis, or transport, suggesting that auxin metabolism is not generally affected in these mutants.

Abstract
We conducted this survey to determine reasons for missed appointments and the relationship between missed appointments, knowledge of diagnosis, and perception of the impact of this diagnosis on pregnancy outcome. We attempted to interview, by telephone, 506 women within 24 hours of their missing an appointment at a high-risk obstetric clinic. Information from 118 respondents was analyzed. The study population was 71% black and 29% white, the average age was 23, and both income and educational levels were low. Seventy-three percent of the women know their medical diagnosis, yet only 30% perceived the problem as a threat. Women who could identify their diagnosis were more likely to evaluate prenatal care positively (P < .006). Women who perceived their condition as a threat seemed to blame lack of transportation less often as a reason for missing an appointment. Many women who missed appointments did not know why they were being seen, and many did not perceive that the care was useful. Effective patient education could improve compliance.

Abstract
Suppressors of the blue fluorescence phenotype of the Arabidopsis trp1-100 mutant can be used to identify mutations in genes involved in plant tryptophan biosynthesis. Two recessive suppressor mutations define a new gene, TRP4. The trp4 mutant and the trp1-100 mutant are morphologically normal and grow without tryptophan, whereas the trp4; trp1-100 double mutant requires tryptophan for growth. The trp4; trp1-100 double mutant does not segregate at expected frequencies in genetic crosses because of a female-specific defect in transmission of the double mutant genotype, suggesting a role for the tryptophan pathway in female gametophyte development. Genetic and biochemical evidence shows that trp4 mutants are defective in a gene encoding the beta subunit of anthranilate synthase (AS). Arabidopsis AS beta subunit genes were isolated by complementation of an Escherichia coli anthranilate synthase mutation. The trp4 mutation cosegregates with one of the genes, ASB1, located on chromosome 1. Sequence analysis of the ASB1 gene from trp4-1 and trp4-2 plants revealed different single base pair substitutions relative to the wild type. Anthranilate synthase alpha and beta subunit genes are regulated coordinately in response to bacterial pathogen infiltration.

Abstract
We have isolated cDNAs from two distinct genes encoding 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate (DAHP) synthase (EC 4.1.2.15) in Arabidopsis thaliana. Predicted protein sequences from both genes, DHS1 and DHS2, and a potato DAHP synthase gene are highly related, but none shows significant sequence similarity to conserved microbial DAHP synthase proteins. Despite this structural difference, the DHS1 cDNA complements mutations in a yeast strain lacking DAHP synthase activity. DHS1 RNA levels increase in Arabidopsis leaves subjected either to physical wounding or to infiltration with pathogenic Pseudomonas syringae strains. DHS2 RNA levels are not increased by these treatments, suggesting that the DHS1 and DHS2 proteins fulfill different physiological functions. Other enzymes in the Arabidopsis aromatic pathway are also encoded by duplicated genes, an arrangement that may allow independent regulation of aromatic amino acid biosynthesis by distinct physiological requirements such as protein synthesis and secondary metabolism. The presence of amino-terminal extensions characteristic of chloroplast transit peptides on DHS1 and DHS2 suggests that both proteins may be targeted to the chloroplast.

Abstract
This meta-analysis involved 92 studies that compared children living in divorced single-parent families with children living in continuously intact families on measures of well-being. Children of divorce scored lower than children in intact families across a variety of outcomes, with the median effect size being .14 of a standard deviation. For some outcomes, methodologically sophisticated studies yielded weaker effect sizes than did other studies. In addition, for some outcomes, more recent studies yielded weaker effect sizes than did studies carried out during earlier decades. Some support was found for theoretical perspectives emphasizing parental absence and economic disadvantage, but the most consistent support was found for a family conflict perspective.

Abstract
To investigate the mechanisms of phytochrome action in vivo, we have overexpressed rice phytochrome in transgenic tobacco plants. A full-length rice phytochrome cDNA was fused to the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter and transferred to tobacco. The progeny of some of the transgenic plants contain large amounts of rice phytochrome mRNA in green leaves. Extracts prepared from overexpressing plants contain twofold to fivefold more spectrophotometrically detectable phytochrome than extracts from control plants. Species-specific, anti-phytochrome monoclonal antibodies were used in immunoblots to discriminate between rice and tobacco phytochrome apoproteins in fractions eluted from a DEAE-Sepharose column. Red minus far-red difference spectra of the partially purified rice phytochrome from the transgenic plants indicate that the rice phytochrome assembles with chromophore and is photoreversible. Analysis of the circadian pattern of Cab mRNA levels in transgenic plants versus controls demonstrates that the overproduction of rice phytochrome extends the duration of the free-running rhythm of Cab gene expression. The rice phytochrome is, therefore, biologically active in the transgenic tobacco plant, which establishes a system for in vivo functional analysis of phytochrome.

Abstract
We have isolated and characterized both cDNA and genomic clones encoding the apoprotein of rice phytochrome. The mRNA produced from this gene is expressed at a low level in etiolated leaves. Following a flash of red light, the steady-state mRNA level decreases within 15 minutes, and is barely detectable after 2 hours. This effect is partially reversed by far red light demonstrating autoregulation of phytochrome mRNA levels. Nuclear run-on experiments show that this effect is exerted on transcription of the phytochrome gene. In etiolated plants, phytochrome mRNA is twofold higher in leaves than in roots, whereas the reverse is true in fully green plants where phytochrome mRNA accumulates despite illumination of the leaves. DNA gel blots and screening of libraries indicate the presence of only a single gene, allowing convenient study of the autoregulatory phenomenon for a specific phytochrome gene. Gel retardation analysis using a fragment from the 5' upstream region reveals that GT-1 is present in nuclear extracts of etiolated rice leaves and binds to sites conserved between rice and oat phytochrome genes.

Abstract
The first and second leaf sheaths of Zea mays L. cv Golden Jubilee were extracted and the extract centrifuged at 100,000g to yield a supernatant or cytosol fraction. Binding of [(3)H]gibberellin A(1) (GA(1)) to a soluble macromolecular component present in the cytosol was demonstrated at 4 degrees C by Sephadex G-200 chromatography. The binding component was of high molecular weight (HMW) and greater than 500 kilodaltons. The HMW component was shown to be a protein and the (3)H-activity bound to this protein was largely [(3)H]GA(1) and not a metabolite. Binding was pH sensitive but only a small percentage (20%) appeared to be exchangeable on addition of unlabeled GA(1). Both biologically active and inactive GAs and non-GAs were able to inhibit GA(1) binding. [(3)H]GA(1) binding to an intermediate molecular weight (IMW) fraction (40-100 kilodaltons) was also detected, provided cytosol was first desalted using Sephadex G-200 chromatography. Gel filtration studies suggest that the HMW binding component is an aggregate derived from the IMW fraction. The HMW binding fraction can be separated into two components using anion exchange chromatography.

Abstract
The elongation rate of cowpea epicotyls from whole cowpea (Vigna sinensis) seedlings and derooted and debladed plants (explants) increased after the main light period (8-hour duration) was extended with either continuous low intensity tungsten light or brief (5 minutes) far-red (FR) irradiation. This end-of-day FR effect was reversed by red (R) irradiation suggesting the involvement of phytochrome. These results confirm and extend those obtained previously with other species. Localization studies indicate the epicotyl to be the site of the photoreceptor. Treatment of cowpea seedlings with paclobutrazol, a gibberellin (GA) biosynthetic inhibitor, abolished the FR promoted epicotyl elongation, indicating a role for GAs in this process. There was no significant difference in epicotyl elongation rates of R plus FR irradiated explants treated with GA(1) or GA(20) and R irradiated explants treated with GA(1). However, R irradiation inhibited subsequent epicotyl elongation of GA(20) treated explants. Moreover, the observation, using GC-MS, that GA(1) and GA(20) are native GAs in cowpea lends support to the concept that phytochrome may control the conversion of endogenous GA(20) to GA(1) in cowpea.

Abstract
A gene encoding the small subunit of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcS) in wheat, a monocot plant, was transferred to tobacco, a dicot plant. The wheat gene is not expressed in transgenic tobacco under the control of its own promoter, but when transcription is driven by a viral promoter, several wheat transcripts accumulate. These include both spliced and unspliced transcripts, which are polyadenylated at multiple novel sites in the wheat 3' flanking region. Another monocot intron, from the maize Adh-1 gene, is also spliced inefficiently in tobacco. These findings contrast results demonstrating efficient processing of different rbcS transcripts from pea, a dicot, in transgenic tobacco. This pattern may reflect general differences in sequences required for RNA processing in monocot and dicot plants.

Abstract
The permeability properties of gibberellin A(1) (GA(1)) were examined in membrane vesicles isolated from cowpea hypocotyls. The rate of GA(1) uptake was progressively greater as pH decreased, indicating that the neutral molecule is more permeable than anionic GA(1). Membrane vesicles used in this study possessed a tonoplast-type H(+)-translocating ATPase as assayed by MgATP-dependent quenching of acridine orange fluorescence and methylamine uptake. However, GA(1) uptake was not stimulated by MgATP. At concentrations in excess of 1 micromolar, GA(1), GA(5), and GA, collapsed both MgATP-generated and artifically imposed pH gradients, apparently by shuttling H(+) across the membrane as neutral GA. The relatively high permeability of neutral GA and the potentially detrimental effects of GA in uncoupling pH gradients across intracellular membranes supports the view that GA(1) accumulation and compartmentation must occur by conversion of GA(1) to more polar metabolites.

Abstract
We have investigated the molecular basis of differential localization of enzyme activities in mesophyll(M) and bundle-sheath (B) cells of maize leaves. M protoplasts and B strands were prepared by enzymatic digestions and mechanical treatment of secondary leaves. Soluble and thylakoid membrane proteins from the two cell types were compared by one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and quantitative rocket immunoelectrophoresis. In addition, several thylakoid polypeptides were identified by crossed immunoelectrophoresis using monospecific antibodies. M and B thylakoids show quantitative and qualitative differences in their polypeptide compositions. While the M thylakoids contain the normal complement of polypeptides, the B thylakoids are deficient in ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductase, photosystem II reaction center polypeptides, and the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-protein complex. Comparison of the soluble proteins by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed marked differences between M and B cells. The major proteins of one cell type are clearly absent from the other. These differences are paralleled by differences in the in vitro translation products of poly A(+) RNA isolated from the two cell types. Immunoprecipitation experiments showed that mRNA encoding the small subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcS) is localized exclusively in B cells, whereas mRNA encoding phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase is detected only in M cells. cDNA clones encoding the carboxylase rbcS and the chlorophyll a/b binding protein were used as probes in Northern blot analysis. M cells contain no detectable RNA encoding rbcS but have a higher steady state level of RNA encoding the chlorophyll a/b-binding polypeptide compared to B cells. Taken together, our results demonstrate that differential gene expression in the two leaf cell types is regulated at the level of translatable mRNA, and, for at least two proteins, at the level of steady-state RNA.

Abstract
A rapid method for assaying [(3)H]gibberellin A(4) bound to a soluble protein from cucumber hypocotyls by using DEAE-cellulose filter discs is described. The binding is saturable, reversible with unlabeled gibberellin A(4), and has a half-life of association under nonequilibrium conditions at 0-4 degrees C of 6-7 min. By using this assay, the dissociation constant (K(d)) was estimated to be 70 nM and the number of binding sites, 0.4 pmol mg(-1) of soluble protein or 0.69 pmol g(-1) (fresh weight) of hypocotyls. The speed and reliability of the assay make it invaluable for kinetic studies involving competitors. Thus, it has been possible to show that gibberellins that are biologically active in a cucumber bioassay compete for binding to the same protein and their calculated affinity constants bear a direct relationship to their known activities in the cucumber bioassay. Gibberellins that are inactive in this bioassay and other plant hormones, such as indoleacetic acid, abscisic acid, and kinetin, show a noncompetitive interaction.

Abstract
Cucumber hypocotyls were extracted and the extract centrifuged at 100,000g to yield a supernatant or cytosol fraction. Binding of [(3)H]-gibberellin(4) (GA(4)) to soluble macromolecular components present in the cytosol was demonstrated at 0 C by Sephadex chromatography. Binding assays performed with cytosol that had been preheated or incubated with protease, DNase, RNase, or phospholipase A or C indicated that heat and protease treatments disrupted the binding, which suggests that binding occurred to a protein. Equilibrium dialysis of a protein-enriched fraction prepared by ammonium sulfate precipitation also indicated binding of [(3)H]GA(4) to macromolecular components. [(3)H]GA(4) binding was pH-sensitive, saturable, reversible, and significantly affected by biologically active gibberellins, but not by inactive gibberellins or other plant hormones such as indoleacetic acid, abscisic acid, or kinetin. Thin layer chromatography indicated that [(3)H]GA(4), and not a metabolite, was the species bound. A kinetic analysis indicated that specific binding of [(3)H]GA(4) was due to a single class of binding sites having an estimated K(d) of 10(-7) molar and a concentration of 0.8 x 10(-12) moles gram(-1) fresh weight or 0.4 x 10(-12) moles milligram(-1) soluble protein.

Abstract
Barley (c.v. Himalaya) aleurone layers were incubated in [(3)H]gibberellin A(1) (GA(1)) at low temperatures. At 3 and 4 C, (3)H-activity was steadily accumulated in aleurone layers, and this accumulation was correlated with significant [(3)H]GA(1) metabolism. At 1 and 1.5 C, metabolism could not be detected, and at these temperatures aleurone layers equilibrated with the [(3)H]GA(1) concentration in the incubation medium. At equilibrium, the total amount of (3)H-activity per unit volume in the aleurone layers was higher than in the incubation medium. Aleurone layers incubated at 0.5 C for 72 hours with [(3)H]GA(1) in the presence of saturating levels of carrier GA(1) consistently retained lower levels of (3)H-activity than when incubated in [(3)H]GA(1) alone. The retention of [(3)H]GA(1) was unaffected by saturating levels of carrier GA(8). GA(1) retained by barley aleurone layers that were incubated at 0.5 C for 72 hours was able to induce alpha-amylase synthesis when aleurone layers were subsequently washed and transferred to a gibberellin-free medium at 25 C.

Abstract
Binding of [(3)H]gibberellin A(1) (GA(1)) to extracts of dwarf pea epicotyls was investigated using sliced pea epicotyls (0.5-1.0 millimeter thick) that had been incubated in a solution containing [(3)H]GA(1) at 0 C for 3 days. Gel filtration of a 100,000g supernatant indicated binding to a high (HMW) and an intermediate molecular weight (IMW) fraction with estimated molecular weights of 6 x 10(5) daltons and 4 to 7 x 10(4) daltons, respectively. The bound (3)H-activity was [(3)H]GA(1) and not a metabolite as deduced by thin layer chromatography. The bound label did not sediment during centrifugation at 100,000g for 2 hours; also, binding was not disrupted after treatment of a combined HMW and IMW fraction with DNase, RNase, or phospholipase A or C, but it was disrupted by protease or heat treatment. These facts suggest that binding of [(3)H]GA(1) was occurring to a soluble protein(s). [(3)H]GA(1) bound to a combined HMW and IMW fraction was not susceptible to changes in pH, nor could it be exchanged with a variety of GAs tested under in vitro conditions. Under in vivo equilibrium conditions, biologically active GAs, such as GA(1), GA(3), GA(4), GA(5), GA(7), and keto GA(1), could reduce the level of [(3)H]GA(1) binding, whereas inactive GAs, such as iodo GA(1) methyl ester, GA(8), GA(13), GA(26), and non-GAs, such as (+/-)abscisic acid, had no effect. By varying the concentration of [(3)H]GA(1) in the incubation medium, the specific binding of [(3)H]GA(1) appeared to be due to two classes of binding sites having estimated K(d) of 6 x 10(-8) molar and 1.4 x 10(-6) molar. The concentrations of the two sites were estimated to be 0.45 picomole per gram and 4.04 picomoles per gram on a fresh weight and 0.1 picomole per milligram and 0.9 picomole per milligram on a soluble protein basis, respectively.

Abstract
Gibberellic-acid (GA3)-induced hypocotyl elongation of intact lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) seedlings was inhibited by colchicine (4×10(-4) M) but not by lumicolchicine (4×10(-4) M). In excised lettuce hypocotyls, GA3 (10(-5) M) increased respiration over water controls, while both colchicine and lumicolchicine alone, or in combination with GA3, reduced respiration. Microtubules were present in the hypocotyls of lumicolchicine-treated seedlings but absent in those treated with colchicine. It is suggested that lumicolchicine is a useful drug to discriminate between the metabolic and microtubule-mediated processes in cell morphogenesis.
