Obtaining shorter regular expressions from finite-state automata

We consider the use of state elimination to construct shorter regular expressions from finite-state automata (FAs). Although state elimination is an intuitive method for computing regular expressions from FAs, the resulting regular expressions are often very long and complicated. We examine the minimization of FAs to obtain shorter expressions first. Then, we introduce vertical chopping based on bridge states and horizontal chopping based on the structural properties of given FAs. We prove that we should not eliminate bridge states until we eliminate all non-bridge states to obtain shorter regular expressions. In addition, we suggest heuristics for state elimination that leads to shorter regular expressions based on vertical chopping and horizontal chopping.

Selective monitoring of peptidase activities with synthetic polypeptide substrates and polyion-sensitive membrane electrode detection

A novel method to monitor specific peptidase activities in biological samples as complex as undiluted plasma/blood is described. The approach is based on the design of synthetic polypeptide substrates in which di- or triarginine sequences are linked to each other via one or more other amino acids recognized specifically by the peptidase to be determined. Detection of chymotrypsin and renin activities using synthetic substrates P4 (F-R-R-R-F-V-R-R-F-NH2) and P5 (R-R-R-L-L-R-R-L-L-R-R-R), respectively, serves to demonstrate the principles of this new assay system. A polyion-sensitive membrane electrode, prepared by doping polymer films with dinonylnaphthalene-sulfonate (DNNS), is shown to exhibit significant nonequilibrium electromotive force (EMF) responses toward these and other polycationic substrates at microgram/milliliter levels under physiological conditions. The same electrode, however, exhibits much smaller total EMF response toward the shorter fragments of the synthetic peptides generated by peptidase activity; hence, the addition of peptidase to a solution containing the synthetic substrate yields a change in electrode EMF response, the rate of which is proportional to the activity of peptidase present. Other synthetic polycationic peptides as well as natural polycationic peptides (e.g., protamine) that lack specific cleavage sites for chymotrypsin and renin, yet are detected by the DNNS-based membrane electrode, do not elicit any significant change in EMF response in the presence of the peptidases, confirming the feasibility and utility of the proposed bioanalytical method.     

Changes in mitochondrial calcium concentration during the cardiac contraction cycle

OBJECTIVE: The aim was to examine whether mitochondrial Ca2+ fluxes are high enough to change mitochondrial and cytosolic calcium concentration during the contraction cycle. METHODS: Isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes were stimulated with paired voltage clamp pulses until contractions were maximal (2 mM [Ca2+]o, 36 degrees C). At defined times of diastole or systole, the cells were shock frozen. Electron-probe microanalysis measured the concentration of total calcium in mitochondria (sigma Ca(mito)) and surrounding cytosol (sigma Cac). Other experiments were performed to evaluate DNP sensitive mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake from depolarisation induced [Ca2+]c transients (K5indo-1 fluorescence). RESULTS: At end of diastole, sigma Ca(mito) was 446 mumol.litre-1. During systole, sigma Ca(mito) increased with a 20 ms delay. A peak sigma Ca(mito) of 1050 mumol.litre-1 was measured 40 ms after start of systole, while 95 ms after start of systole sigma Ca(mito) had fallen to 530 mumol.litre-1. From the changes in sigma Ca(mito) the rates of net mitochondrial Ca2+ flux were estimated at 100 nmol.s-1 x mg-1 protein for Ca2+ influx and 36 nmol.s-1 x mg-1 protein for Ca2+ egress. Decay of sigma Ca(mito) was coupled to a rise in sigma Na(mito). sigma Cl(mito) and sigma K(mito) rose and fell in parallel with sigma Ca(mito), suggesting Ca2+ activation of mitochondrial anion and cation channels. Activation of the non-specific permeability can be excluded. Block of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake with DNP (100 microM) or FCCP (10 microM) increased the amplitude of the [Ca2+]c transients for 1-3 min by about 50%; evaluation of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake from DNP sensitive difference signals, however, was hampered by sequestration of mitochondrial Ca2+ into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. CONCLUSIONS: Mitochondrial calcium content changes during each individual contraction cycle; a substantial amount of calcium is taken up during the systole and released during later systole and diastole.
