Abstract
Ribosome biogenesis is an energy-intense multistep process where even minimal defects can cause severe phenotypes up to cell death. Ribosome assembly is facilitated by biogenesis factors such as ribosome assembly factors. These proteins facilitate the interaction of ribosomal proteins with rRNA and correct rRNA folding. One of these maturation factors is RimP which is required for efficient 16S rRNA processing and 30S ribosomal subunit assembly. Here, we describe the binding mode of Staphylococcus aureus RimP to the small ribosomal subunit and present a 4.2 Å resolution cryo-EM reconstruction of the 30S-RimP complex. Together with the solution structure of RimP solved by NMR spectroscopy and RimP-uS12 complex analysis by EPR, DEER, and SAXS approaches, we show the specificity of RimP binding to the 30S subunit from S. aureus. We believe the results presented in this work will contribute to the understanding of the RimP role in the ribosome assembly mechanism.

Abstract
One of the most critical steps of protein synthesis is coupled translocation of messenger RNA (mRNA) and transfer RNAs (tRNAs) required to advance the mRNA reading frame by one codon. In eukaryotes, translocation is accelerated and its fidelity is maintained by elongation factor 2 (eEF2)1,2. At present, only a few snapshots of eukaryotic ribosome translocation have been reported3-5. Here we report ten high-resolution cryogenic-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the elongating eukaryotic ribosome bound to the full translocation module consisting of mRNA, peptidyl-tRNA and deacylated tRNA, seven of which also contained ribosome-bound, naturally modified eEF2. This study recapitulates mRNA-tRNA2-growing peptide module progression through the ribosome, from the earliest states of eEF2 translocase accommodation until the very late stages of the process, and shows an intricate network of interactions preventing the slippage of the translational reading frame. We demonstrate how the accuracy of eukaryotic translocation relies on eukaryote-specific elements of the 80S ribosome, eEF2 and tRNAs. Our findings shed light on the mechanism of translation arrest by the anti-fungal eEF2-binding inhibitor, sordarin. We also propose that the sterically constrained environment imposed by diphthamide, a conserved eukaryotic posttranslational modification in eEF2, not only stabilizes correct Watson-Crick codon-anticodon interactions but may also uncover erroneous peptidyl-tRNA, and therefore contribute to higher accuracy of protein synthesis in eukaryotes.

Abstract
Candida albicans is a widespread commensal fungus with substantial pathogenic potential and steadily increasing resistance to current antifungal drugs. It is known to be resistant to cycloheximide (CHX) that binds to the E-transfer RNA binding site of the ribosome. Because of lack of structural information, it is neither possible to understand the nature of the resistance nor to develop novel inhibitors. To overcome this issue, we determined the structure of the vacant C. albicans 80S ribosome at 2.3 angstroms and its complexes with bound inhibitors at resolutions better than 2.9 angstroms using cryo-electron microscopy. Our structures reveal how a change in a conserved amino acid in ribosomal protein eL42 explains CHX resistance in C. albicans and forms a basis for further antifungal drug development.

Abstract
Translation of the genetic code into proteins is realized through repetitions of synchronous translocation of messenger RNA (mRNA) and transfer RNAs (tRNA) through the ribosome. In eukaryotes translocation is ensured by elongation factor 2 (eEF2), which catalyses the process and actively contributes to its accuracy1. Although numerous studies point to critical roles for both the conserved eukaryotic posttranslational modification diphthamide in eEF2 and tRNA modifications in supporting the accuracy of translocation, detailed molecular mechanisms describing their specific functions are poorly understood. Here we report a high-resolution X-ray structure of the eukaryotic 80S ribosome in a translocation-intermediate state containing mRNA, naturally modified eEF2 and tRNAs. The crystal structure reveals a network of stabilization of codon-anticodon interactions involving diphthamide1 and the hypermodified nucleoside wybutosine at position 37 of phenylalanine tRNA, which is also known to enhance translation accuracy2. The model demonstrates how the decoding centre releases a codon-anticodon duplex, allowing its movement on the ribosome, and emphasizes the function of eEF2 as a 'pawl' defining the directionality of translocation3. This model suggests how eukaryote-specific elements of the 80S ribosome, eEF2 and tRNAs undergo large-scale molecular reorganizations to ensure maintenance of the mRNA reading frame during the complex process of translocation.

Abstract
In many biological processes, e.g. the development of multicellular organisms, a tight regulation of the protein synthesis is a necessity. Among numerous mechanisms for translational control, RNA interference (RNAi) based mechanisms have been shown to regulate the translation of messenger RNA (mRNA) and hence regulate the synthesis of proteins. The key proteins in all RNAi mechanisms are the argonaute proteins. The only catalytically active argonaute protein is denoted argonaute2 (Ago2) in humans. This single chain protein is comprised of four globular domains arranged in a crescent shape tertiary structure [1]. The guide RNA binding specificity lies within the Mid and PAZ domain while the active site resides in the PIWI domain. In 2011 it was reported that the receptor for activated C-kinase (RACK1), an integral protein of the ribosomal 40S subunit, directly binds the microRNA induced silencing complex (miRISC) [2] and thereby contributes to gene repression through RNAi mediated knockdown. This interaction of RACK1 with miRISC was furthermore shown to be a specific interaction between Ago2 and RACK1. Structural investigation of this interaction will be of great interest to elucidate how Ago2 is positioned in relation to ribosome bound mRNA and if this positioning of Ago2 on the ribosome facilitates mRNA binding to the guide RNA bound in Ago2. In our studies we will co-crystallize recombinantly expressed Ago2 with 80S ribosome from S. cerevisiae [3] and solve the structure by x-ray crystallography. Recent project progress will be presented on the conference poster.

Abstract
During neuronal development axons are guided by a gradient of the signal molecule netrin, which attracts extending neurons by binding to the DCC (Deleted in Colorectal Cancer) Receptor. It has been shown that the intracellular domain of the DCC receptor interacts directly with the ribosome, and that this interaction is crucial for axon guidance(1). However structural insights into this interaction are still lacking. Our aim is therefore to determine the crystal structure of the DCC-ribosome complex. As membrane proteins can be challenging to crystalize, especially together with a huge macromolecular complex as the ribosome, a cloned fragment of the intracellular domain of the human DCC receptor will be used. Tcherkezian et al. showed that the interaction with the ribosome occurs through the ribosomal protein L5(1), which is conserved from S. cerevisiae to humans. We therefore decided to use the 80S S. cerevisiae ribosome because crystallization conditions are known and well-established (2). Furthermore, in the crystals of S. cerevisiae there is a large solvent channel passing by ribosomal protein L5(2), making it likely that we can soak fragments of the DCC receptor into crystals of S. cerevisiae ribosome. In order to screen for soluble fragments of the DCC receptor that can be used for soaking, a random PCR expression approach first described by Kawasaki and Inagaki(3), where random PCR fragments are inserted into a vector containing GFP was used. This method resulted in several soluble fragments covering the P1 domain that was shown to be responsible for ribosome binding(1). These fragments are now being purified, and will be tested for ribosome binding, and subsequently in soaking and co-crystallisation experiments. Progress will be presented.

Abstract
Pioneer crystallographic studies of the isolated 30S ribosomal subunit provided the first structural insights into the decoding process. Recently, new crystallographic data on full 70S ribosomes with mRNA and tRNAs have shown that the formation of the tight decoding centre is ensured by conformational rearrangement of the 30S subunit (domain closure), which is identical for cognate or near-cognate tRNA. When a G·U forms at the first or second codon-anticodon positions (near-cognate tRNA), the ribosomal decoding centre forces the adoption of Watson-Crick G·C-like geometry rather than that of the expected Watson-Crick wobble pair. Energy expenditure for rarely occuring tautomeric base required for Watson-Crick G·C-like G·U pair or the repulsion energy due to steric clash within the mismatched base pair could constitute the only cause for efficient rejection of a near-cognate tRNA. Our data suggest that "geometrical mimicry" can explain how wrong aminoacyl-tRNAs with G·U pairs in the codon-anticodon helix forming base pairs with Watson-Crick geometry in the decoding center can be incorporated into the polypeptide chain.

Abstract
The crystal structures of the eubacterial translation initiation factor 2 in apo form and with bound GDP and GTP reveal conformational changes upon nucleotide binding and hydrolysis, notably of the catalytically important histidine in the switch II region. Translation initiation factor 2 (IF2) is involved in the early steps of bacterial protein synthesis. It promotes the stabilization of the initiator tRNA on the 30S initiation complex (IC) and triggers GTP hydrolysis upon ribosomal subunit joining. While the structure of an archaeal homologue (a/eIF5B) is known, there are significant sequence and functional differences in eubacterial IF2, while the trimeric eukaryotic IF2 is completely unrelated. Here, the crystal structure of the apo IF2 protein core from Thermus thermophilus has been determined by MAD phasing and the structures of GTP and GDP complexes were also obtained. The IF2–GTP complex was trapped by soaking with GTP in the cryoprotectant. The structures revealed conformational changes of the protein upon nucleotide binding, in particular in the P-loop region, which extend to the functionally relevant switch II region. The latter carries a catalytically important and conserved histidine residue which is observed in different conformations in the GTP and GDP complexes. Overall, this work provides the first crystal structure of a eubacterial IF2 and suggests that activation of GTP hydrolysis may occur by a conformational repositioning of the histidine residue.

Abstract
Argillaceous Lindsay limestone is the geologic storage formation that will be encountered at the site for the construction of a deep ground repository in Ontario, Canada, for the storage of low to intermediate level nuclear waste. The permeability of the Lindsay limestone is a key parameter that will influence the long-term movement of radionuclides from the repository to the geosphere. This paper describes the use of both steady-state and transient radial flow laboratory tests to determine the permeability of this argillaceous limestone. The interpretation of the tests is carried out using both analytical results and computational models of flow problems that exhibit radial symmetry. The results obtained from this research investigation are compared with the data available in the literature for similar argillaceous limestones mainly found in the Lindsay (Cobourg) formation. The experiments give permeabilities in the range of 1.0 × 10(-22) to 1.68 × 10(-19) m(2) for radial flows that are oriented along bedding planes under zero axial stress. The factors influencing transient pulse tests in particular and the interpretation of the results are discussed.

Abstract
AIM To facilitate implementation of National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines for urgent colorectal cancer referral, local cancer networks have promoted the use of standardized proformas in primary care. This clinical audit assessed use of the proforma within the Thames Valley Cancer Network (TVCN) to see whether increased proforma use was associated with higher compliance to NICE guidelines and higher cancer detection rates. METHOD All 2-week wait referrals for lower bowel cancer to the six Acute NHS Trusts in the TVCN received during the month of June 2010 were identified, anonymized and analysed in relation to colorectal cancer detection rates. RESULTS Of the 586 referrals audited, proforma usage varied significantly across the six Acute NHS Trusts from 18% to 96%. Referral letters from primary care had NICE compliance ranging from 30 to 50%. In those which received a referral protocol, 50-90% were NICE compliant. Proforma use was associated with higher cancer detection rates (P = 0.03). CONCLUSION These results have wide-ranging implications since they suggest that the adoption of a simple proforma in primary care can improve the effectiveness of referral for suspected cancer.

Abstract
The first X-ray structure of the eukaryotic ribosome at 3.0Å resolution was determined using ribosomes isolated and crystallized from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Ben-Shem A, Garreau de Loubresse N, Melnikov S, Jenner L, Yusupova G, Yusupov M: The structure of the eukaryotic ribosome at 3.0 A resolution. Science 2011, 334:1524-1529). This accomplishment was possible due to progress in yeast ribosome biochemistry as well as recent advances in crystallographic methods developed for structure determination of prokaryotic ribosomes isolated from Thermus thermophilus and Escherichia coli. In this review we will focus on the development of isolation procedures that allowed structure determination (both cryo-EM and X-ray crystallography) to be successful for the yeast S. cerevisiae. Additionally we will introduce a new nomenclature that facilitates comparison of ribosomes from different species and kingdoms of life. Finally we will discuss the impact of the yeast 80S ribosome crystal structure on perspectives for future investigations.

Abstract
Ribosomes translate genetic information encoded by messenger RNA into proteins. Many aspects of translation and its regulation are specific to eukaryotes, whose ribosomes are much larger and intricate than their bacterial counterparts. We report the crystal structure of the 80S ribosome from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae--including nearly all ribosomal RNA bases and protein side chains as well as an additional protein, Stm1--at a resolution of 3.0 angstroms. This atomic model reveals the architecture of eukaryote-specific elements and their interaction with the universally conserved core, and describes all eukaryote-specific bridges between the two ribosomal subunits. It forms the structural framework for the design and analysis of experiments that explore the eukaryotic translation apparatus and the evolutionary forces that shaped it.

Abstract
Crystal structures of prokaryotic ribosomes have described in detail the universally conserved core of the translation mechanism. However, many facets of the translation process in eukaryotes are not shared with prokaryotes. The crystal structure of the yeast 80S ribosome determined at 4.15 angstrom resolution reveals the higher complexity of eukaryotic ribosomes, which are 40% larger than their bacterial counterparts. Our model shows how eukaryote-specific elements considerably expand the network of interactions within the ribosome and provides insights into eukaryote-specific features of protein synthesis. Our crystals capture the ribosome in the ratcheted state, which is essential for translocation of mRNA and transfer RNA (tRNA), and in which the small ribosomal subunit has rotated with respect to the large subunit. We describe the conformational changes in both ribosomal subunits that are involved in ratcheting and their implications in coordination between the two associated subunits and in mRNA and tRNA translocation.

Abstract
Discrimination of tRNA on the ribosome occurs in two consecutive steps: initial selection and proofreading. Here we propose a proofreading mechanism based on comparison of crystal structures of the 70S ribosome with an empty A site or with the A site occupied by uncharged cognate or near-cognate tRNA. We observe that ribosomal proteins S13, S19, L16, L25, L27 and L31 are actively involved in the proofreading of tRNA. We suggest that proofreading begins with the monitoring of the entire anticodon loop of tRNA by nucleotides from 16S rRNA (helices 18 and 44) of the small subunit and 23S rRNA (helix 69) of the large subunit with involvement of magnesium ions. Subsequently, the elbow region is scanned by rRNA (helices 38 and 89) and proteins from the large subunit determining whether to accommodate the acceptor end of tRNA in the peptidyl transferase center or not.

Abstract
Recent collection of high-resolution crystal structures of the 70S ribosome with mRNA and tRNA substrates enhances our knowledge of protein synthesis principles. A novel network of interactions between the ribosome in the elongation state and mRNA downstream from the A codon suggests that mRNA is stabilized and aligned at the entrance to the decoding center. The X-ray studies clarify how natural modifications of tRNA are involved in the stabilization of the codon-anticodon interactions, prevention of frame-shifting and also expansion of the decoding capacity of tRNAs. In addition, the crystal structures provide the view that tRNA in the A and P sites communicate through a protein rich environment and suggest how these tRNAs are controlled through the intersubunit bridge formed by protein L31.

Abstract
A comparison of messenger RNA in X-ray crystal structures of 70S ribosomal complexes in the initiation, post-initiation and elongation states of translation shows distinct conformational differences in the exit (E) codon. Here, we present structural evidence indicating that, after the initiation event, the E codon nucleotides relax and form a classical A-helical conformation. This conformation is similar to that of the P and A codons, and is favourable for establishing Watson-Crick interactions with the anticodon of E-site transfer RNA.

Abstract
Recent X-ray and cryo-EM studies of 70S ribosome complexes containing different types of messenger RNAs (mRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA) have been reviewed. Changes of the mRNA path on the ribosome at initiation and elongation states have been described. Authors suggested, that the specific region of ribosomal 30S subunit ("platform") is a ribosome binding site of regulatory domains of mRNA which locates on the non-translated 5'-end of the mRNA.

Abstract
This Letter reports results from the MINOS experiment based on its initial exposure to neutrinos from the Fermilab NuMI beam. The rates and energy spectra of charged current nu(mu) interactions are compared in two detectors located along the beam axis at distances of 1 and 735 km. With 1.27 x 10(20) 120 GeV protons incident on the NuMI target, 215 events with energies below 30 GeV are observed at the Far Detector, compared to an expectation of 336+/-14 events. The data are consistent with nu(mu) disappearance via oscillations with |Delta(m)2/32|=2.74 +0.44/-0.26 x10(-3)eV(2) and sin(2)(2theta(23))>0.87 (68% C.L.).

Abstract
Translation initiation is a major determinant of the overall expression level of a gene. The translation of functionally active protein requires the messenger RNA to be positioned on the ribosome such that the start/initiation codon will be read first and in the correct frame. Little is known about the molecular basis for the interaction of mRNA with the ribosome at different states of translation. Recent crystal structures of the ribosomal subunits, the empty 70S ribosome and the 70S ribosome containing functional ligands have provided information about the general organization of the ribosome and its functional centres. Here we compare the X-ray structures of eight ribosome complexes modelling the translation initiation, post-initiation and elongation states. In the initiation and post-initiation complexes, the presence of the Shine-Dalgarno (SD) duplex causes strong anchoring of the 5'-end of mRNA onto the platform of the 30S subunit, with numerous interactions between mRNA and the ribosome. Conversely, the 5' end of the 'elongator' mRNA lacking SD interactions is flexible, suggesting a different exit path for mRNA during elongation. After the initiation of translation, but while an SD interaction is still present, mRNA moves in the 3'-->5' direction with simultaneous clockwise rotation and lengthening of the SD duplex, bringing it into contact with ribosomal protein S2.

Abstract
The third component of complement (C3) is a 190 kDa glycoprotein essential for eliciting the complement response. The protein consists of two polypeptide chains (alpha and beta) held together with a single disulfide bridge. The beta-chain is composed of six MG domains, one of which is shared with the alpha-chain. The disulfide bridge connecting the chains is positioned in the shared MG domain. The alpha-chain consists of the anaphylatoxin domain, three MG domains, a CUB domain, an alpha(6)/alpha(6)-barrel domain and the C-terminal C345c domain. An internal thioester in the alpha-chain of C3 (present in C4 but not in C5) is cleaved during complement activation. This mediates covalent attachment of the activated C3b to immune complexes and invading microorganisms, thereby opsonizing the target. We present the structure of bovine C3 determined at 3 Angstroms resolution. The structure shows that the ester is buried deeply between the thioester domain and the properdin binding domain, in agreement with the human structure. This domain interface is broken upon activation, allowing nucleophile access. The structure of bovine C3 clearly demonstrates that the main chain around the thioester undergoes a helical transition upon activation. This rearrangement is proposed to be the basis for the high level of reactivity of the thioester group. A strictly conserved glutamate residue is suggested to function catalytically in thioester proteins. Structure-based design of inhibitors of C3 activation may target a conserved pocket between the alpha-chain and the beta-chain of C3, which appears essential for conformational changes in C3.

Abstract
The estimation of the bulk-solvent contribution to the diffraction of a macromolecular crystal makes use of a solvent mask which delimits the bulk-solvent regions in the crystal. It is shown that the way this mask is usually defined in CNS contains a bias which can lead to absurd results in the case of very large structures, where the calculations can only be made on relatively coarse grids. A modified procedure is described and applied to 70S ribosome data at 5.5 A resolution. The B factor affecting the bulk solvent is also discussed. Even in this case of very high and widely variable atomic B factors, it seems sufficient to consider a constant and isotropic B factor for the bulk solvent. This is initially set to the average value of the atomic B factor, but can be refined.

Abstract
The ribosome of Thermus thermophilus was cocrystallized with initiator transfer RNA (tRNA) and a structured messenger RNA (mRNA) carrying a translational operator. The path of the mRNA was defined at 5.5 angstroms resolution by comparing it with either the crystal structure of the same ribosomal complex lacking mRNA or with an unstructured mRNA. A precise ribosomal environment positions the operator stem-loop structure perpendicular to the surface of the ribosome on the platform of the 30S subunit. The binding of the operator and of the initiator tRNA occurs on the ribosome with an unoccupied tRNA exit site, which is expected for an initiation complex. The positioning of the regulatory domain of the operator relative to the ribosome elucidates the molecular mechanism by which the bound repressor switches off translation. Our data suggest a general way in which mRNA control elements must be placed on the ribosome to perform their regulatory task.

Abstract
This multicentre, open, randomized, study compared the efficacy and safety of recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH; follitropin alpha) with highly purified urinary human FSH (uFSH; urofollitropin HP) in women undergoing ovulation induction for assisted reproductive techniques. Following long down-regulation with buserelin, patients received two ampoules of 75 IU (150 IU) s.c. rFSH or highly purified uFSH for 6 days, after which the dose could be increased until they fulfilled the criteria for human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) administration. Of 168 patients recruited, 155 received at least one dose of FSH, and 137 received HCG [68: rFSH (85%); 69: uFSH (92%)]. Following oocyte retrieval and fertilization, up to three embryos were replaced/patient and luteal support was given. The mean number of oocytes retrieved/patient was 10.2 +/- 6.0 for rFSH patients compared with 10.8 +/- 6.1 in the uFSH group (not significant). There was a trend towards fewer ampoules used (22.3 +/- 6.5 versus 24.3 +/- 6.5), higher pregnancy (44.3 versus 41.4%) and live birth rates (33.8 versus 26.7%), as well as a lower miscarriage rate (0.0 versus 16.7%) in favour of rFSH. However, no significant differences in efficacy parameters were recorded. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome occurred in 8.6% and 7.9% of rFSH and uFSH patients respectively. In conclusion, this protocol was effective in inducing multiple follicular development and high numbers of oocytes were retrieved with both drugs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine opinions and experiences of health professionals concerning the management of people with comorbid substance misuse and mental health disorders. METHOD We conducted a survey of staff from mental health services and alcohol and drug services across Queensland. Survey items on problems and potential solutions had been generated by focus groups. RESULTS We analysed responses from 112 staff of alcohol and drug services and 380 mental health staff, representing a return of 79% and 42% respectively of the distributed surveys. One or more issues presented a substantial clinical management problem for 98% of respondents. Needs for increased facilities or services for dual disorder clients figured prominently. These included accommodation or respite care, work and rehabilitation programs, and support groups and resource materials for families. Needs for adolescent dual diagnosis services and after-hours alcohol and drug consultations were also reported. Each of these issues raised substantial problems for over 70% of staff. Another set of problems involved coordination of client care across mental health and alcohol and drug services, including disputes over duty of care. Difficulties with intersectoral liaison were more pronounced for alcohol and drug staff than for mental health. A majority of survey respondents identified 13 solutions as practical. These included routine screening for dual diagnosis at intake, and a range of proposals for closer intersectoral communication such as exchanging client information, developing shared treatment plans, conducting joint case conferences and offering consultation facilities. CONCLUSIONS A wide range of problems for the management of comorbid disorders were identified. While solution of some problems will require resource allocation, many may be addressed by closer liaison between existing services.

Abstract
To help improve services for parents with psychotic disorders, patients with such disorders in three treatment agencies in Queensland, Australia, were surveyed about whether they were parents, how much contact they had with their offspring, and who provided assistance with child care. Of the 342 individuals with psychotic disorders who participated in the study, 124 were parents. Forty-eight parents in the study had children under age 16, and 20 of these parents (42 percent) had their children living with them. Most parents relied on relatives or friends for assistance with child care. Barriers to child care services identified by parents were inability to pay, lack of local services, and fear of losing custody of children.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous research has suggested that patients with schizophrenia have fewer offspring compared to the general population. Reduced fertility in a disorder with a strong genetic component and an apparently stable incidence has implications for models of genetic transmission. There is also a need to obtain contemporary estimates of the prevalence of parenthood among subjects with psychotic disorders in order to inform service planning. The aim of this study was to determine the fertility and fecundity of a representative sample of individuals with psychoses who were in contact with mental health services, and to explore the interactions between age at first diagnosis and fertility. METHOD All clients of two community mental health clinics and an extended-care psychiatric hospital were surveyed. Data on diagnosis, age at first diagnosis, and the number and age of offspring were collected. Based on interviews with the proband and chart review, a genogram of the probands' family was drawn that identified sex, age, affected status and the number of offspring for each patient and their siblings. RESULTS In total, 36% of all patients were parents. Most women with psychoses (59%) were mothers. Patients with psychoses had fewer offspring compared to their unaffected same-sex siblings. This was especially the case for men with non-affective psychoses. Higher levels of fertility were associated with a later age at first diagnosis. CONCLUSION The consistent finding of reduced 'reproductive fitness' in those with non-affective psychoses needs to be incorporated in the genetic epidemiology of these disorders. Despite this reduction in fertility and fecundity, many patients with psychoses are parents. Services need to remain mindful of the special needs of these patients.

Abstract
The growing application of in vitro embryo production systems that utilize slaughterhouse tissues of animals of unknown health status conveys the risk of disease transmission. One pathogen of concern in this regard is bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), and the objective of this study was to investigate the effect of BVDV on in vitro embryonic development. A bovine in vitro embryo production system was experimentally infected with BVDV at 2 stages: prior to in vitro maturation by incubating cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC) with virus (strain Pe515; titer 10(6.2) tissue culture infective dose (TCID)50/mL) or vehicle for 2 h, and then during in vitro culture by the use of BVDV infected granulosa cells. Exposure to BVDV throughout in vitro production reduced cleavage rates (P = 0.01) but increased (P = 0.05) the number of embryos that reached the 8-cell stage when expressed as a percentage of cleaved oocytes. Blastocyst yield was increased by the presence of virus when expressed as a proportion of oocytes (P = 0.0034) or of those cleaved (P < 0.0001). The percentage of total blastocyst yield on Days 7, 8 and 9 for the control and virus treatments was 20, 51, 29 and 29, 41, and 29%, respectively, indicating that the rate of blastocyst development was nonsignificantly faster in the virus-treated group (P = 0.06). These results indicate that the presence of non-cytopathogenic BVDV in an in vitro production system may reduce cleavage rates but allow those cleaved to develop to blastocysts at a higher rate.

Abstract
As a consequence of multiple follicular growth during ovarian stimulation for in-vitro fertilization (IVF), follicles of varying sizes often yield oocytes that vary in maturity and morphology of the oocyte-cumulus-corona complex. The objective of this prospective study was to explore the relationship between follicular fluid aspirate volume and the oocyte's developmental potential in an IVF treatment cycle. In total 9933 follicles were studied from 400 patients who underwent 535 consecutive IVF treatment cycles at St James's University Hospital, Leeds, UK, between February 1995 and February 1996. The volume of each individual follicle aspirated was recorded and related to the probability of obtaining an oocyte, its fertilizing capacity, the cleavage rate and the quality of embryos derived. We found no statistically significant difference in oocyte recovery rates between follicles with an aspirate volume < or = 1 ml and follicles with a volume > 1 ml. Although oocytes obtained from follicles with an aspirate volume > or = 1 ml showed a significantly lower fertilization rate, they went on to cleave at the same rate as oocytes obtained from larger follicles and resulted in embryos of comparable quality. Furthermore, there was no statistically significant difference in the implantation, clinical pregnancy or live birth rates per cycle between embryos derived from follicles with an aspirate volume < or = 1 ml and those derived from follicles with an aspirate volume > 1 ml. We conclude that follicular size and the oocyte's developmental potential in the stimulated ovary are not closely related and can be independent. This is in contrast to the Graafian follicle and the pre-ovulatory oocyte in the natural cycle.

Abstract
Human complement component C5 has been crystallized using a low-salt batch technique. The crystals are large hexagonal bi-pyramids often larger than 1.5 mm. Although these crystals were grown in low salt (0.1 M NaCl), they are remarkably stable for at least 2 months at 281 K and they are not dissolved in aqueous buffers containing up to 2 M sodium chloride. The space group is P3121 or P3221, and the cell parameters were determined to be a = 144.9, b = 144.9, c = 243.1 A; alpha = 90 degrees, beta = 90, gamma = 120 degrees. At room temperature and cryo-temperatures the crystals diffract at best to 6 A using rotating-anode X-ray sources. Using synchrotron radiation with cryoprotection using 40%(v/v) PEG 400 the resolution limit can be extended to 3.3 A. In both cases the crystals show significant anisotropy, with relatively weaker reflections at higher resolution in the a*b* plane.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The large plasma proteinase inhibitors of the alpha 2-macroglobulin superfamily inhibit proteinases by capturing them within a central cavity of the inhibitor molecule. After reaction with the proteinase, the alpha-macroglobulin-proteinase complex binds to the alpha-macroglobulin receptor, present in the liver and other tissues, and becomes endocytosed and rapidly removed from the circulation. The complex binds to the receptor via recognition sites located on a separate domain of approximately 138 residues positioned at the C terminus of the alpha-macroglobulin subunit. RESULTS The crystal structure of the receptor-binding domain of bovine alpha 2-macroglobulin (bRBD) has been determined at a resolution of 1.9 A. The domain primarily comprises a nine-strand beta structure with a jelly-roll topology, but also contains two small alpha helices. CONCLUSIONS The surface patch responsible for receptor recognition is thought to involve residues located on one of the two alpha helices of the bRBD as well as residues in two of the beta strands. Located on this alpha helix are two lysine residues that are important for receptor binding. The structure of bRBD is very similar to the approximately 100-residue C-terminal domain of factor XIII, a transglutaminase from the blood coagulation system.

Abstract
The aim was to identify changes in communication skills and behaviour disorder of 15 clients with learning difficulties 6 mo. and 1 yr. after they moved from large- to small-scale accommodations. Clients were allocated into a group of 6 with profound multiple learning difficulties, a preverbal group of 5, and a verbal group of 4. Communication skills were measured using the Preverbal Communication Schedule, and behavioural disorder was measured using the Aberrant Behaviour Checklist. Analysis showed that from the baseline to one year follow-up, there was a significant increase from baseline in social withdrawal by the clients with multiple difficulties but that there were improvements in communication skills of both preverbal and verbal clients. No control group was involved.
