[Subunits of human holoenzyme of DNA dependent RNA polymerase III phosphorylated in vivo].

Phosphorylation of human holoenzyme of DNA dependent RNA polymerase III subunits in vivo has been investigated. RNA polymerase III from human placenta nuclei and epidermoid carcinoma cells A431 was isolated as two subfractions (IIIa and IIIb) distinguished in the order of elution from DEAE Sephadex A-25 column chromatography and buoyant density at glycerol gradient centrifugation. The subfractions of RNA polymerase III holoenzyme consists of four subunits with molecular masses 60, 52, 45 and 38 kDa, respectively, phosphorylated in vivo.

[The leading pathways and factors in the transmission of the causative agents of campylobacteriosis under current conditions].

The authors have studied the epidemiological importance of different paths and factors of the transmission of causative agents in the foci of campylobacteriosis, as well as the character and frequency of microbial associations detected in cases of campylobacteriosis. The family foci of campylobacteriosis have been epidemiologically studied and the detected factors contributing to contacting campylobacteriosis have been analyzed. As revealed in this study, 41.

[Sensitivity of the pathogen of Campylobacter infection to various antibiotics].

Antibiotic sensitivity of 21 Campylobacter strains isolated from humans, monkeys and birds with diarrhea was assayed and the findings are presented. It was shown that all the isolates were highly sensitive to ofloxacin, pefloxacin, ciprofloxacin, josamycin, pipemidinic acid and amoxyclav (a combination of amoxycillin and clavulanic acid). The predominating majority of the strains were resistant to rifampicin, amoxycillin and phosphomycin.
