- Three sex pheromone components of the carob moth were isolated and identified from the extract of female pheromone glands, using a variety of techniques including coupled gas chromatographic-electroantennographic recordings, coupled gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis, microozonolysis, electroantennographic assays of monounsaturated standards, wind-tunnel bioassays, and field trials. The major component was identified as (Z,E)-9,11,13-tetradecatrienal, a novel lepidopterous pheromone component structure. Two minor components, either one of which improves the upwind flight response of males when blended with the major component, were identified as (Z,E)-9,11-tetradecadienal, and (Z)-9-tetra-decenal.

- Oncogenesis of tumours related to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is associated with somatic deletions involving the MEN1 locus, suggesting inactivation of a tumour suppressor gene in this region. Identification of meiotic cross-overs in MEN1 families has placed the MEN1 locus centromeric of D11S807. An extended deletion mapping was performed in 27 primary parathyroid tumours, and identified D11S427 as the closest centromeric flanking marker. Through physical mapping using newly isolated cDNA clones, we estimated the distance between the flanking markers D11S807 and D11S427 to be less than 900 kb. One of these cDNA clones showed expression of a 4.4 kb message in multiple tissues, including those affected in MEN1, while in five endocrine tumours no transcript was detected. Sequence characterization showed that this gene encodes for the phospholipase C beta 3, a key enzyme in signal transduction.
