(12) The presence of molybdenum cofactor in the nitrate reductase was indicated by the formation of molybdopterin form A in the oxidation of the enzyme by iodine and by the complementation of NADPH-nitrate reductase with the heart-treated enzyme in the extract of Neurospora crassa nit-1.
(13) The presence of multiple copies of wild-type or mutant nit-4 genes did not generally lead to increased enzyme activity or growth rate, but instead frequently appeared to be detrimental to nit-4 function.
(14) Mutants of the nit-2 locus, a regulatory gene which is postulated to mediate nitrogen catabolite repression, are deficient in the ability to utilize several amino acids as well as other nitrogen sources used by wild type.
(15) An average of ten nits were taken from each patient both before and after treatment.

(19) Nit-picking about the detailed mechanisms of governance and accountability.
(20) However, transformants obtained with most of these nit-4 mutant genes possess a markedly reduced level of nitrate reductase and grow only slowly on nitrate, emphasizing the need to examine quantitatively the affects of in vitro-manipulated genes.

(3) Incubation of normal pig lymphocytes in serum samples collected from 10 sows immediately before, and at daily intervals after mating with a vasectomized boar significantly elevated the rosette inhibition titre (RIT) of a standard antilymphocyte serum in 6 animals on the first but not on the 2nd and 3rd day after copulation.
(4) Measurement of the basal serum RIT may contribute to the diagnosis of pancreatitis in patients with hypocorticism but provides no information on this pathology in patients with endogenous hypercorticism.
