“…3 and 5 and Table 1 suggest that a single kinase may be responsible for phosphorylation of glucose, N-acetylglucosamine, and glucosamine. Zeleznick et al (9) concluded that both glucose and N-acetylglucosamine are phosphorylated by the same kinase in S. pyogenes; the present results with L. mesenteroides are consistent with that conclusion.…”

Enzyme extracts of Leuconostoc mesenteroides were found to contain at least four separate kinases: one active with glucose, glucosamine, and N-acetylglucosamine; one active with fructose and mannose; and two active with gluconate, one constitutive and one inducible. The molecular sizes of all the kinases, estimated from sucrose gradient centrifugation, are about the same, 37,000 to 50,000 daltons, except the constitutive gluconate kinase, which is about 100,000 daltons. Apparent Michaelis constants were calculated for all of the substrates mentioned. The kinases are separable on triethylaminoethyl cellulose.

One hundred and seventeen persons all stung by yellow jacket (YJ) and/or bee were examined by means of skin prick test with venom of these insects, skin prick test with 10 inhalant allergens and analyses of total IgE, specific IgE and IgG against honey bee and YJ venom. Eighty-seven persons had had a systemic reaction to YJ or bee sting, the rest had reacted normally or with a large local reaction. Positive correlations (P less than 0.05) were found between results of skin prick tests and specific IgE against venoms and, for YJ, between the severity of symptoms after sting and the size prick test with the venom. That some of the more severe symptoms could have been caused by non-immunological mechanisms could explain why a significant correlation was present only between the results of the prick test and specific IgE and not between these tests and the clinical symptoms. Specific IgE values against YJ and honey bee venom showed covariation, although no correlation could be demonstrated between the clinical symptoms after stings from these insects, or between skin prick test results using the two different extracts. The severity of the sting reactions was not correlated to age, atopic disposition, amount of total IgE, number of stings during life, or positive skin prick test to inhalant allergens. It is concluded that in insect allergy, specific IgE analysis and skin prick tests are supplementary.

“…Chitin is formed by extracts of Neurospora with UDP-acetylglucosamine as donor (Glaser & Brown, 1957). Extracts of certain bacteria catalyse rhamnose-transfer from TDP-rhamnose to lipid (Burger, Glaser & Burton, 1962) or to polysaccharide (Zeleznick, Boltralik, Barkulis, Smith & Heymann, 1962).…”
