ABSTRACT Plasmid pB1000 is a small replicon recently identified as bearing bla ROB-1 in animal and human Pasteurellaceae in Spain. We identified pB1000 in 11 bla ROB-1-positive Australian and North American Haemophilus influenzae isolates, suggesting a wider role for pB1000 in disseminating bla ROB-1. Native H. influenzae conjugative elements can mobilize plasmids similar to pB1000 at a low frequency of 10−8, and this might account for the infrequency of bla ROB-1 compared to the rate of occurrence of bla TEM-1. Altered penicillin-binding protein 3 was associated with an increased cefaclor MIC in 3 isolates.

Lake Agassiz

A crude stone chopper and a worked left antler fragment have been recovered from Lake Agassiz II beds near Morson, Rainy River District, Ontario. The stone chopper resembles other stone implements surface collected in Rainy River District. The antler fragment is identified as probably Alces alces, and has been dated by 14C at 5 898 B.C. ± 423 years. The antler fragment shows two opposed dorsal and ventral grooves and other signs of working by Homo, the toolmarks in the grooves and on the shaped surfaces suggesting the use of a beaver-tooth adze and a hand ax respectively. This is believed to be the oldest dated report of North American Alces coeval with Homo.

Winter Tick

We evaluated the suitability of four species of North American Cervidae as hosts for the winter tick (Dermacentor albipictus) by comparing the numbers and weights of engorged female ticks recovered from experimentally infested moose (Alces alces), elk (Cervus elaphus), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), and white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Each host was exposed to approximately equivalent infestations (~1 larva/cm2). A higher percentage of ticks were recovered as engorged females from moose (8.0%) than from elk (0.23%) or mule deer (0.60%). No engorged female ticks were recovered from white-tailed deer. Female ticks engorged on moose were larger (0.533 ± 0.169 (SD) g) than those engorged on elk (0.414 ± 0.136 g) or mule deer (0.418 ± 0.138 g). Alopecia occurred on all infested animals but was extensive only on moose. Our findings support field data suggesting that moose are the most important and the most severely affected hosts of winter ticks.

Macromolecular Assembly

Actin is a protein found in all eukaryotic cells. In its polymerized form, the cells use it for motility, cytokinesis and for cytoskeletal support. An example of this latter class is the actin bundle in the acrosomal process from the Limulus sperm. The different functions actin performs seem to arise from its interaction with the actin binding proteins. A 3-dimensional structure of this macromolecular assembly is essential to provide a structural basis for understanding this interaction in relationship to its development and functions.
