Pulse-chase experiments

After approximately 90 min of anoxia, the induced synthesis of an additional group of c. 20 polypeptides is first detected. This group of 20 anaerobic polypeptides (ANPs) represents more than 70% of the total labelled amino acid incorporation after five hours of anaerobiosis (Fig. 3). By this time the synthesis of the TPs is at a minimal level however, these polypeptides accumulate to a high level during early anaerobiosis and have been shown by pulse-chase experiments to be very stable. The synthesis of... 

Metabolic control analysis (MCA) assigns a flux control coefficient (FCC) to each step in the pathway and considers the sum of the coefficients. Competing pathway components may have negative FCCs. To measure FCCs, a variety of experimental techniques including radio isotopomers and pulse chase experiments are necessary in a tissue culture system. Perturbation of the system, for example, with over-expression of various genes can be applied iteratively to understand and optimize product accumulation. 

In the case of trace metals, adsorption is typically much faster than the time intervals for which it is practically possible to separate the cells. Therefore, in practice, values of kf and kr are most often estimated by assuming that water loss from the hydrated cation is rate-limiting (Eigen-Wilkins mechanism, see Section 4.3.1 above). In some cases, uptake transients can be observed at the start of a short-term uptake experiment or by using pulse-chase experiments for which a metal solution containing a radioactive tracer is replaced by a solution...

H]-ethanolamine into PE was inhibited by C6-ceramide in a dose and time-dependent manner (b) delayed disappearance of label from CDP-choline and CDP-ethanolamine in pulse-chase experiments indicated impaired conversion of these CDP-metaboUtes to PC and PE by CPT and EPT, respectively (c) the activities of CPT and EPT are decreased upon C6-ceramide treatment (see Eigure 2 adapted from Bladergroen et al. 1999b). In contrast to BHK cells the activity of CT was not affected significantly in rat-2 fibroblasts by short-chain ceramides. 

A metabolite, molecular entity, or some other event/ process that precedes another component in a longer sequence of events or conversions. For example, the isoprenoid metabolite squalene is a precursor of cholesterol and glucose 6-phosphate is a precursor of glycogen, ribose, and pyruvate.

The biological function of this dolichol-linked oligosaccharide was revealed in pulse-chase experiments which showed that the intact oligosaccharide was transferred, as such, to protein. Subsequent studies, to be discussed, confirmed that the formation of the oligosaccharide linked to the Asn residues of glycoproteins is probably initiated by transfer of the oligosaccharide from the dolichol diphosphate intermediate to the asparagine residue of a nascent polypeptide (see Refs. 35, 49, 50, and 67 for reviews).
