Preparation Techniques

Under a variety of electron microscope specimen preparation techniques different forms of chromatin appearance can be distinguished: beads-on-a-string, a 100 Å nucleofilament, a 250 Å fiber and a compact 300 to 500 Å fiber.Using a standardized specimen preparation technique we wanted to find out whether there is any relation between these different forms of chromatin or not. We show that with increasing ionic strength a chromatin fiber consisting of a row of nucleo- somes progressively folds up into a solenoid-like structure with a diameter of about 300 Å.For the preparation of chromatin for electron microscopy the avoidance of stretching artifacts during adsorption to the carbon supports is of utmost importance. The samples are fixed with 0.1% glutaraldehyde at 4°C for at least 12 hrs. The material was usually examined between 24 and 48 hrs after the onset of fixation.

Kinetics Of

The relative reactivities of the tetrakis( N -alkylpyridinium- X - yl )-porphyrins where X = 4 (alkyl = methyl, ethyl, n -propyl) , X = 3 (methyl) , and X = 2 (methyl, ethyl, n -propyl, n -butyl, n -hexyl, n -octyl) were studied in aqueous solution. From the ionic strength dependence of the metalation rate constants, the effective charge of a particular cationic porphyrin was usually larger when copper(II) rather than zinc(II) was the reactant. The kinetics of ZnOH + incorporation and the acid catalyzed removal of zinc from the porphyrins in 1.0 M HCl were also studied. In general, the more basic 4- (para-) and 3- (meta-) isomers were the most reactive, followed by the less basic 2- (ortho-) methyl to n -butyl derivatives, with the lipophilic ortho n -hexyl and n -octyl porphyrins the least reactive.
