We have investigated the detailed kinetics of the passive Ca2+ leak from non-mitochondrial Ca2+ stores in permeabilized A7r5 cells. The decrease in the content of stored Ca2+ in the presence of 2 μM thapsigargin deviated from a single-exponential curve in the initial phase of the efflux. The deviation persisted after correcting this efflux for passively bound Ca2+. The non-single-exponential nature of the spontaneous release also occurred when the initial store Ca2+ content was reduced to 40% of its original value by pretreatment with 200 nM inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3). The passive Ca2+ leak could be modelled by two exponential curves with discrete rate constants of 0.06 min-1 and 0.98 min-1, and not by any other type of non-exponential decay. We concluded that individual store units are heterogeneous with respect to their passive Ca2+ permeability. This non-exponential nature of the passive Ca2+ release is unrelated to the non-single-exponential InsP3-induced Ca2+ release.

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3)-induced Ca2+ release from intracellular stores is generally assumed to be a ‘quantal’ process because low InsP3 concentrations mobilize less Ca2+ than high concentrations and a submaximal concentration does not release all the InsP3-mobilizable Ca2+. However, some recent reports questioned the generally accepted view that a low dose of InsP3 is unable to empty the whole store. We have now challenged the stores of permeabilized A7r5 cells in InsP3 for much longer periods than previously reported, to assess directly whether the slow phase of the release would empty the whole store (a non-quantal response) or only a fraction of it (a quantal response). Addition of a maximal [InsP3] at the end of a prolonged (92 min) stimulation with a submaximal [InsP3] resulted in additional Ca2+ release. Experiments in which the stores were challenged with different submaximal InsP3 concentrations for long time periods revealed that a lower [InsP3] never released the same amount of Ca2+ as a higher [InsP3]. This quantal pattern of Ca2+ release occurred both at 25 °C and at 4 °C. There was a time-dependent increase in the fraction of Ca2+ recruited by the lower compared with the higher [InsP3]. This recruitment of Ca2+ persisted if the [InsP3] was decreased, but was largely prevented by palmitoyl-CoA, a potent blocker of the luminal Ca2+ translocation between individual store units. ATP, in the presence of InsP3, released Ca2+ under conditions permitting the recruitment of no additional InsP3 receptors, indicating that an all-or-none emptying of a fraction of the stores cannot be the only mechanism responsible for quantal Ca2+ release in A7r5 cells. We conclude that some of the previously published evidence for a non-quantal Ca2+ release pattern should be reinterpreted.

The kinetics of the effect of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) on Ca2+ in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) were studied in saponin-permeabilized A7r5 cells. At 0.1 microM, IP3 elicited slow monoexponential declines in SR free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]SR). For IP3 concentration ([IP3]) = 0.2-100 microM, evoked declines in [Ca2+]SR were biphasic and best fit as the sum of two first-order processes with rate constants kfast and kslow. The kfast varied as a function of [IP3] over the range tested, whereas kslow was already maximal when [IP3] = 0.1 microM. To analyze SR Ca2+ release elicited by IP3, the rate constants for IP3-induced changes in the total SR Ca2+ content (kR) were calculated. kR was accurately described only when both [Ca2+]SR and [IP3] were considered together. kR was dependent on IP3 binding to receptors that existed in either of two states, a high-affinity low-conductance state (IP3RH) and a low-affinity high-conductance state (IP3RL). The permeability of IP3RL was 12.28 times larger than that of IP3RH, and the conversion between permeability states as well as changes in both the affinity and cooperativity with which IP3 was bound to IP3RL were mediated by SR Ca2+. This SR Ca(2+)-dependent modulation of the characteristics of IP3 receptors forms the basis for the biphasic time course characteristic of IP3-evoked SR Ca2+ release.

The reaction mechanism was explored at the CCSD(T)/CBS//B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ level. Detailed kinetic analysis was firstly carried out using an ME/RRKM rate model with the inclusion of anharmonic and tunneling treatments. 1,3-Cycloaddition is found to be the rate-determining step. Calculated rate constants confirm the latest experimental data.

A two step operation is proposed for the biodegradation of low concentrations (< 10 mg/L) of BETX substances in an up flow submerged biotower configuration. Step 1 involves growth of a lush biofilm using benzoic acid in a batch mode. Step 2 involves a longer term biological transformation of BETX. Kinetics of biotransformations are modeled using first order assumptions, with rate constants being a function of benzoic acid dosages used in Step 1. A calibrated computer model is developed and presented to predict the degree of transformation and biomass level throughout the tower under a variety of inlet and design operational conditions.

The rate of hydrolysis of S2O82- ions in acidic medium to peroxomonosulphuric acid was measured at 20 and 30 °C. The composition of the starting solution corresponded to the anolyte flowing out from an electrolyser for production of this acid or its ammonium salt at various degrees of conversion and starting molar ratios of sulphuric acid to ammonium sulphate. The measured data served to calculate the rate constants at both temperatures on the basis of the earlier proposed mechanism of the hydrolysis, and their dependence on the ionic strength was studied.

The reaction between hexamethylenediisocyanate and 1-pentanol in toluene was studied by means of reversed-phase liquid chromatography. By employing this method, it was possible to determine all components of the reaction mixture including both products, i.e. N-(6-isocyanate hexyl)pentylcarbamate and N,N'-bis(pentyloxycarbonyl)hexamethylenediamine. Relations for the calculation of kinetic constants were derived assuming a competitive consecutive second-order reaction. It was demonstrated that the reaction involved in this case is indeed a second-order reaction, and the rate constants of the first and second consecutive reactions were determined.

The kinetics of liquid-phase isothermal esterification of POCl3 with 2-isopropylphenol and 4-isopropylphenol have been studied within the temperature intervals of 110 to 130 and 90 to 110 °C, respectively. The rate constants and activation energies of the individual steps of this three-step reaction have been calculated from the values measured. The reaction rates of the two isomers markedly differ: at 110 °C 4-isopropylphenol reacts faster by the factors of about 7 and 20 for k1 and k3, respectively. This finding can be utilized in preparation of mixed triaryl phosphates, since the alkylation mixture after reaction of phenol with propene contains an excess of 2-isopropylphenol over 4-isopropylphenol.

The kinetics of the electrophilic additions of four diarylcarbenium ions (4a-4d) to tricarbonyl(η4-cyclohepta-1,3,5-triene)iron (1) have been studied photometrically. The second-order rate constants match the linear Gibbs energy relationship log k20 °C = s(E + N) and yield the nucleophilicity parameter N(1) = 3.69. It is concluded that electrophiles with E ≥ -9 will react with complex 1 at ambient temperature.
