It has been confirmed that free amino and carboxyl groups disappear during plastein formation from concentrated proteose by crystalline pepsin. Using papain, the changes are obscured by simultaneous hydrolysis. Enzymatic hydrolysis of the plasteins results in the liberation of free amino and carboxyl groups.Reactive "tyrosine" decreases during plastein formation by either enzyme. The same groups are liberated on enzymatic hydrolysis of the plasteins, in a manner analogous to that which takes place in the hydrolysis of typical proteins.It is concluded that in so far as the changes in amino, carboxyl, and "tyrosine" groups are concerned, the plasteins are similar to typical proteins. It is further suggested that the phenolic hydroxyl groups of tyrosine play an essential role in the structure of the protein molecule.Benzaldehyde was found to have no effect on the formation of plastein from proteose by crystalline pepsin.

A study was made of the products formed by treating brown coal or lignin with concentrated aqueous or ethanolic alkali at 200 �C. With brown coals a major redistribution of the oxygen-containing functional groups appeared to occur, because the products contained aliphatically linked carboxyl groups and aliphatic hydroxyl, as well as phenolic hydroxyl groups. The behaviour of lignin under the same conditions was less clear but sufficiently similar to that of brown coal to suggest that reactions of the same type were occurring in both cases. Reactions involving decarboxylation, ring scission of dihydric phenol structures, and subsequent hydrogenation are suggested tentatively as the main steps in the formation of the products. The results provide some additional evidence for the view that there is a simple chemical relation between Victorian brown coal and lignin.

Calcium ions in the concentration range 5-100 mM inhibit auxin-induced cell elongation and wall extensibility of plant stems. Inhibition of wall extensibility requires that the tissue be living; growth inhibition cannot be explained on the basis of cross-linking of carboxyl groups of cell wall uronides by calcium ions. In this study, ultrastructural evidence was sought for an interaction of calcium ions with some component other than the wall at the cell surface of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) hypocotyls.
