Oxidation-reduction Equilibria in Biological Systems
1. The reduction potentials of B. typhosus in culture in bouillon which is given access to atmospheric oxygen show a negative drift that attains the values found in sterile bouillon when deaerated with nitrogen: Eh -0.085 to -0.095 volt at pH 7.6. The potential reaches this level after 6 to 8 hours incubation, and is maintained at this point for several hours. A slow decline to more negative va...
متن کاملThe Biological Action of Strongly Positive Oxidation-reduction Systems
The intermediate metabolism of proteins gives rise to hydroxylated phenols from the tyrosine and phenylalanine radicals. These are potential oxidation-reduction systems circulating in the blood, and, as will be proved later, extremely positive from a biological point of view. A survey of the physiological oxidation-reduction systems identified up to the present shows that they have previously b...
متن کاملCooperativity in biological systems
Living organisms can sense and respond to external and internal stimuli. Response isdemonstrated in many forms including modulation of gene expression profiles, motility,secretion, cell death, etc. Nevertheless, all forms share a basic property: they depend on sensingsmall changes in the concentration of an effector molecule or subtle conformational changes ina protein and invoking the appropri...
متن کاملReduction of Constrained Mechanical Systems and Stability of Relative Equilibria
A mechanical system with perfect constraints can be described, under some mild assumptions , as a constrained Hamiltonian system (M; ; H; D; W): (M;) (the phase space) is a symplectic manifold, H (the Hamiltonian) a smooth function on M, D (the constraint submanifold) a submanifold of M, and W (the projection bundle) a vector sub-bundle of T D M, the reduced tangent bundle along D. We prove tha...
