The properties of proteins are determined not only by the sequence of amino-acid residues in the polypeptide chains, but also by the con- figuration of the chains-the way in which the chains are coiled or folded. It is probable that denaturation, the loss of some of the specific properties of a native protein, may in many cases be the result simply of a change in configuration of the polypeptide chains, without any change whatever in the sequence of amino-acid residues. During the past few years great progress has been made in the attack on the determination of the sequence of amino-acid residues in the poly- peptide chains of proteins, through the work of SANGER and his collabora- tors (Io9, IIO) and of other investigators. There has also been significant progress in the attack on the problem of the configuration of polypeptide chains, largely through the application of the X-ray diffraction technique.

Sulfonium compounds have been known to the organic chemist for almost 90 years. During most of this period they remained curiosities, well suited for didactic purposes to illustrate certain similarities to ether adducts and to organic ammonium compounds. Their exploration remained largely in the academic realm, because no unusual practical applications were found in spite of a steady increase in the attention paid to them. An event that occasionally puts a class of compounds into the center of interest is the recognition of its occurrence in nature and of special biological significance. The first natural sulfonium compound was discovered less than 20 years ago, somewhat by chance rather than as the climax of some coveted biochemical problem. Gradually, however, the unique role of sulfonium compounds, especially of S-adenosyl- methionine, in enzymatic group transfer reactions such as trans- methylation was recognized, and the recent upsurge of interest has been exceptional. The present review is directed toward an interpretation of the properties and functions of biological sulfonium compounds with frequent reference to their structural chemistry. The data presented here may suggest novel or improved analytical techniques and new interpretations of the mechanism of group transfer. Furthermore, a stimulus may be derived for the design of sulfonium compound analogues. The availability of competitive analogues of biochemical key compounds has aided in the understanding of the function of virtually all metabolic intermediates, prosthetic groups of enzymes, vitamins, amino acids, and other compounds. The pattern will be similar in sulfonium biochemistry.

Als Bitterstoffe bezeichnet man bitter schmeckende, N- und S-freie, O-haltige Substanzen, die noch nicht in andere groBe Verbindungsklassen, wie Alkaloide, Farbstoffe, Sterine usw. , eingegliedert sind. Bis heute ist es nicht gelungen, eine Beziehung zwischen dem bitteren Geschmack und der chemischen Konstitution zu entdecken (75). Wenn auch viele Bitterstoffe Keton- oder Lactongruppierungen enthalten, so ist doch das Vorhandensein derartiger Gruppen zur Erregung der auf "bitter" ansprechenden Geschmackssinnes-zellen keine notwendige V oraussetzung. Das Vorkommen der Bitterstoffe ist nicht auf bestimmte Pflanzen- familien beschrankt, wenn sie auch in einigen besonders zahlreich ver- treten sind, wie z. B. in den Gentianaceen oder den Compositen. Ent- stehung oder eventuelle Aufgabe der Bitterstoffe in den Pflanzen sind vollig unbekannt. Lediglich bei den Gentianaceen sind bisher Versuche zur Lokalisierung des Bildungsortes durch 1. KORTE (9I) unternommen worden. Hier konnte sowohl durch Pfropfungsversuche wie auch durch Wurzelkulturen gezeigt werden, daB weder SproB noch Wurzel allein fur die Bitterstoffbildung verantwortlich ist. 1m allgemeinen sind die Bitterstoffe in allen Organen der Pflanzen zu finden (I37); bei den stets bitteren Gentianaceen sind die Samen bitterstoff-frei. 1m Verlauf der Vegetationsperiode kann es zu Schwankungen im Bitterstoffgehalt kommen, hieruber liegen aber ebenfalls nur wenige Untersuchungen vor (IOI). Es hat ferner in manchen Fallen den Anschein, als stiege mit zunehmendem Alter einer Pflanze auch die Bitterkeit an (75). Die Existenz der Bitterstoffe ist schon seit langer Zeit bekannt, bereits im 15. J a~rhundert werden sie in deutschen Krauterbuchern beschrieben (IIO).
