Abstract We have developed a system of computer programs to expedite analyses of amino acid data obtained in a clinical environment. The system contains a program for building and maintaining libraries of chromatogram data, and a program for retrieval of data on the basis of any of its associated biographical characteristics. Several programs have been written that work with data drawn from the libraries. They provide for easy presentation, manipulation, or statistical analysis of the data. Included are comparison of population means and variances and intra-population correlation analyses. A minicomputer that has 12K of core storage is adequate for use with the system.

Correlations of GDP per capita per year with total protein supplies per capita per day and animal-protein ratios were computed by pooling data prom 164 countries. Average supplies for 1972–1974, 1975–1977, 1979–1981, and 1984–1986 were determined from FAO food balances sheets. Essential amino acid (EAA) supplies by country were computed using amino acid data for food commodities shown in FAO food balance sheets and other data. The EAA requirements for the four periods were estimated by country. When the latest amino acid requirement estimates are used, lysine is the limiting amino acid in all predominantly cereal diets.

Sequence comparison of the α-subunit of phosphorylase kinase with α-tropomyosin revealed 32% identity, and 49% similarity, between the region of α-tropomyosin coded by exon 5 and a 39 amino acid segment of the kinase subunit. A subsequence of the α-subunit segment and a sequence overlapping the same α-subunit region are homologous with: (a) a region of the cytoplasmic domain of EGF receptor (50% identity) and (b) a Ca2+-binding domain of the α chain of S-100 protei (50% identity) respectively. Statistical analysis shows that these homologies are significant. The biological implication of the above similarities is discussed.

AbstractThe composition and variation of hemolymph amino acids in larvae of nine species of the genus Neodiprion were studied. The amino acid pattern was the same in all samples analyzed. Quantitative differences were as great within as between species; hence, hemolymph amino acid data does not appear to be of taxonomic usefulness for this genus.
