The amino acid sequence of a Bacillus subtilis phosphoprotein that matches an orfY‐tsr coding sequence
Authors: Mitchell Clayton , Morris Paul W. , Lum Leanna , Spiegelman George , Vary James C.
Published: October 2006

Bacillus subtilts contains a 30 kDa protein which was phosphorylated during late vegetative growth and sporulation. The sequence for the N‐terminal 16 amino acids was found to be identical to the predicted sequence for the N‐terminus of a small open reading frame, orfY, but diverged from the predicted sequence thereafter. The orfY region was resequenced and contained one less adenine residue than previously reported, resulting in an open reading frame from within orfy through the entire coding region for tsr which follows orfY. The predicted orfY‐tsr amino acid sequence showed 24% identity to Escherichia coll fructose–1,6‐bisphosphate aldolase. Two mutants in the tsr region had 2–5% of wild‐type aldolase and the nucleotide sequences showed missense mutations. These results indicate that orfY‐tsr encodes aldolase and should be renamed fba 1.
nov: a new genetic locus that affects the response of Escherichia coli K‐12 to novobiocin
Authors: Rakonjac Jasna , Milic Mirjana , Ajdic‐Predic Dragana , Santos Diogenes , Ivanisevic Radmila , Savic Dragutin J.
Published: October 2006

We have identified a new gene locus (nov) affecting the resistance of Escherichia coli K‐12 to novobiocin. The gene also affects, although to a lesser extent, tolerance to another gyrase inhibitor coumermycin. Transductional and complementation analysis show that nov is located between attø80 and the osmZ (hns) genes at minute 27 of the E. coli K‐12 genetic map. In standard laboratory strains of E. coli K‐12 nov exists at least in two allelic forms.
Activator‐independent formation of a closed complex between σ54‐holoenzyme and nifH and nifU promoters of Klebsiella pneumoniae
Authors: Buck Martin , Cannon Wendy
Published: October 2006

The alterNatlve sigma factor σ54 is required for transcription of nitrogen fixation genes in Klebsiella pneutnoniae and other diazotrophs. The nif genes, and other Eσ54‐dependent genes whose products are necessary for a wide range of processes, are positively regulated. A unifying model that is well supported by studies on nif and other nitrogen‐regulated (ntr) genes includes the central tenet that σ54 confers upon core RNA polymerase the ability to recognize and bind specific promoter sequences, but not the ability to isomerize to the open complex without assistance from the appropriate activator protein. Direct physical evidence for formation of an activator‐independent complex between Eσ54 and the NifA‐dependent K. pneumoniae nifH and nifU promoters has, to date, been lacking. Using purified components we have now demonstrated formation of the closed complex at these promoters, indicating that it is an intermediate along the pathway to open complex formation. The closed complex was not detected when conserved features of the promoter were altered by mutation, nor was its stability increased when integration host factor protein was bound adjacent to the Eσ54 recognition sequence.
In vivo control of promoter and terminator efficiencies at a distance
Authors: Jacquet M. A. , Reiss C.
Published: October 2006

In pBR329, the genes providing resistance to ampicillin (β‐lactamase, bla) and chloramphenicol (chloramphenicol acetyl transferase, cat) are encoded on the same strand. The bla gene lies downstream of the cat gene, separated by an intergenic sequence of 414 bp. The transcription starts of the two genes are 1090 bp apart. We have probed, in vivo, the effect on transcription of the bla gene, of the introduction, in front of the cat gene, of a series of synthetic promoters covering a large (over 60‐fold) range of efficiency. The rising efficiency of the cat promoter has several important consequences for transcription of the bla gene. First, a strong (up to sevenfold) stimulation of the bla promoter is observed, together with a shift of the main bla transcription start site, 10 bp upstream. Furthermore, the relative efficiencies of the bla transcription terminators are reduced. Finally, because of a lesser relative efficiency of the car transcription terminators as well, we observe enhanced intrusion into the bla gene of transcripts initiated at the cat promoter, some of them extending to the bla transcription terminator and beyond. The operon‐like expression of the cat‐bla gene tandem is controlled by the efficiency of the cat terminator, which in turn depends on that of the cat promoter. This demonstrates a direct link between the efficiencies of promoter and terminator. Upon inhibition of bacterial gyrase activity, i.e. relaxation of negative supercoiling action, bla expression increases sharply in pBR329, but remains almost unchanged in a plasmid (pBRGC‐1) in which cat is under the control of a 6.5‐fold stronger promoter. Therefore, under normal gyrase activity, the stimulation of the bla promoter in pBRGC‐1 (relative to pBR329) appears to be linked to topological relaxation of its template in situ, in keeping with earlier in vitro observations. We propose that the relaxed state of pBRGC‐1 in situ could be due to the decrease in the plasmid linking number, introduced by the 10–12 RNA polymerases that simultaneously transcribe the cat gene in that plasmid, compared with only one or two in pBR329. We find that the negative superhelical densities of both plasmids are almost identical when extracted from the cell. Therefore gyrase would not correct for the relaxed state of plasmid pBRGC‐1 observed in situ.
Human neutrophil response to recombinant neisserial Opa proteins
Authors: Belland R. J. , Chen T. , Swanson J. , Fischer S. H.
Published: October 2006

Interactions of human neutrophils with recombinant Escherichia coli expressing gonococcal outer membrane Opa proteins were examined using chemiluminescent and biological assays. Seven opa loci from Neisseria gonorrhoeae MS11 4.8 were expressed as β‐lactamase‐Opa fusion proteins that contained all but the mature N‐terminal amino acid of the full‐length Opa protein fused to three N‐terminal amino acids derived from the mature β‐lactamase. The Opa fusion proteins were exported and assembled in the outer membrane of E. coli in a manner similar to that of Opa in N. gonorrhoeae, as evaluated by antibody binding and in situ proteolytic cleavage. All fusion proteins exhibited the characteristic heat‐modifiable migration in SDS‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis that typifies Opa proteins of neisseriae. Opa fusion proteins conferred on E. coli the ability to stimulate a chemiluminescent response from human neutrophils in the absence of antibody or complement. The nature of the response in terms of chemiluminescence, phagocytosis, and killing was in all cases analogous to that seen using N. gonorrhoeae expressing the equivalent Opa protein. Neither E. coli nor gonococci expressing OpaA elicited a response from neutrophils. Use of E. coli expressing Opa fusions should be useful in defining their biological activities and pathogenic roles.
Transcription and autoregulation of the stabilizing functions of broad‐host‐range plasmid RK2 in Escherichia coli, Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Authors: Davis Tamara L. , Helinski Donald R. , Roberts Richard C.
Published: October 2006

The broad‐host‐range plasmid RK2 has been shown to encode several proteins important for its maintenance within bacterial populations of a number of Gram‐negative bacteria. Their genes are organized into two operons: parCBA and parD. These operons have been proposed to be transcribed from two divergent promoters, p‐parCBA and p‐parD, located within a sequence of approximately 150 bases. In this report we identify and characterize the sequences required for regulated transcription from these promoters in Escherichia coli, Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Both of these promoters are repressed by their own gene products in the same manner in all three bacteria tested, with ParA functioning as the primary repressor of p‐parCBA and ParD functioning as the repressor of p‐parD. The binding regions of these proteins were determined through deletion analyses, DNA mobility shift assays, and an examination of the effect of mutations in this region. Based on these observations, the ParA protein appears to bind to either two inverted repeat or two direct repeat sequences, one downstream from the transcriptional initiation site and the other upstream of the p‐parCBA ‐35 box. The ParD protein appears to bind to one inverted repeat sequence, located between the ‐35 and ‐10 boxes of p‐parD.
Characterization of a novel regulatory gene governing the expression of a polyketide synthase gene in Streptomyces ambofaciens
Authors: Geistlich Martin , Losick Richard , Turner Jan R. , Rao R. Nagaraja
Published: October 2006

A key step in the biosynthesis of macrolide antibiotics is the assembly of a large macrocyclic lactone ring by a multienzyme protein complex called the polyketide synthase. In the species Streptomyces ambofaciens, the polyketide synthase for the assembly of the 16‐membered ring of the macrolide antibiotic spiramycin is encoded by the biosynthetic gene srmG. Here we show that the accumulation of transcripts from the srmG promoter is governed by the regulatory gene srmR, whose predicted product, a 65 kDa polypeptide, is not significantly similar in its deduced amino acid sequence to that of previously reported proteins in the protein databases. The srmR gene product is also required for the accumulation of transcripts from srmX, an additional gene in the vicinity of srmR, but not for the accumulation of transcripts from srmR itself. Interestingly, mutations in srmR prevent the accumulation of transcripts from the spiramycin resistance gene srmB, but this is an indirect consequence of the failure of srmR mutants to produce spiramycin, which is an inducer of its own resistance gene. The possibility that srmR is the prototype for a new class of regulatory genes governing early events in the biosynthesis of macrolide antibiotics is discussed.
Sequence diversity within the argF, fbp and recA genes of natural isolates of Neisseria meningitidis: interspecies recombination within the argF gene
Authors: Zhou Jiaji , Spratt Brian G.
Published: October 2006

Studies of natural populations of Neisserla meningitidis using multilocus enzyme electrophoresis have shown extensive genetic variation within this species, which, it has been proposed, implies a level of sequence diversity within meningococci that is greater than that normally considered as the criterion for species limits in bacteria. To obtain a direct measure of the sequence diversity among meningococci, we obtained the nucleotide sequences of most of the argF, recA and fbp genes of eight meningococci of widely differing electrophoretic type (from the reference collection of Caugant). Sequence variation between the meningococcal strains ranged from 0–0.6% for fbp, 0–1.3% for argF, and 0–3.3% for recA. These levels of diversity are no greater than those found within Escherichia coli‘housekeeping’genes and suggest that multilocus enzyme electrophoresis may overestimate the extent of nucleotide sequence diversity within meningococci. The average sequence divergence between the Neisseria meningitidis strains and N. gonorrhoeae strain FA19 was 1.0% for fbp and 1.6% for recA. The argF gene, although very uniform among the eight meningococcal isolates, had a striking mosaic structure when compared with the gonococcai argF gene: two regions of the gene differed by >13% in nucleotide sequence between meningococci and gonococci, whereas the rest of the gene differed by <1.7%. One of the diverged regions was shown to have been introduced from the argF gene of a commensal Neisseria species that is closely related to Neisseria cinerea. The source of the other region was unclear.
Activation of a cryptic streptomycin‐resistance gene in the Bacteroides erm transposon, Tn4551
Authors: Smith C. Jeffrey , Owen Charles , Kirby Lyndon
Published: October 2006

Bacteroides compound transposons encoding erm resistance are highly homologous but previous studies have shown some divergence of Tn4551. Results presented here describe a novel Tn 4551 streptomycin‐resistance gene, aadS, that was phenotypically silent in wild‐type Bacteroides. However, aadS expression could be activated by a trans‐acting chromosomal mutation. The aadS‐encoded peptide displayed significant homology to Gram‐positive streptomycin‐dependent adenyltransferases, and enzymatic analysis confirmed the production of this activity. Examination of the nucleotide sequence showed that 200 bp upstream of aadS, the DNA base composition changed abruptly from 31% G+C to 48% G+C. These two regions were demarcated by a DNA sequence with homology to the recombination hot spots reported for Tn21 and the Bacteroides ermFU gene and to sequences at the ends of the chromosomal Bacteroides conjugal element, XBU4422.
The role of integration host factor In gene expression in Escherichia coli
Authors: Freundlich M. , Ramani N. , Mathew E. , Sirko A. , Tsui P.
Published: October 2006

Integration host factor is a sequence‐specific, histone‐like, multifunctional DNA‐binding and ‐bending protein of Escherichia coli. The characterization and functional analysis of this protein has been done mainly in bacteriophage λ and other mobile genetic elements. Less is known concerning the role of integration host factor (IHF) in E. coli, although it has been implicated in a number of processes in this organism including DNA replication, site‐specific recombination, and gene expression. This review presents recent work which suggests that IHF alters the activity of an unusually large number of operons in E. coli. We discuss the possible physiological relevance of the involvement of IHF in gene expression and the hypothesis that IHF is a member of a class of functionally redundant proteins that participate in chromosome structure and multiple processes involving DNA.
Mono‐ and bi‐phasic Salmonella typhi: genetic homogeneity and distinguishing characteristics
Authors: Moshitch Sharon , Doll Linda , Rubinfeld Ben‐Zion , Stocker Bruce A. D. , Schoolnik Gary K. , Gafni Yedidya , Frankel Gad
Published: October 2006

Several lines of evidence indicate a relatively low genetic heterogeneity in the natural Salmonella typhi population. However, some S. typhi isolates found in Indonesia express, instead of the usual fliC‐d flagellin gene, a different flagellar gene fliC‐j. In addition, Indonesian strains may have a second flagellar antigen fliC‐z66. We have previously suggested, on the basis of the flagellar antigen constitution, that S. typhi evolved in an isolated human population in Indonesia. In order to test this hypothesis, we have gathered S. typhi isolates from around the world and tested the genetic heterogeneity among them. In general, polymorphism was greater in isolates from the Far East, as was indicated by Southern hybridizations with rDNA and fliC DNA probes. Gene fliC‐j was not found in S. typhi isolates, other than those from Indonesia. However, the one‐clone origin of S. typhi was indicated by a common DNA fingerprint pattern and by the occurrence, in the 5′ end region of the fliC gene, of 10 scattered nucleotides that differ from the corresponding 10 nucleotides in other fliC alleles studied. These nucleotides were present in all isolates tested but did not change the amino acid sequence of the flagellin polypeptide.
Recombination between genes encoding major outer surface proteins A and B of Borrelia burgdorferi
Authors: Rosa Patricia A. , Schwan Tom , Hogan Daniel
Published: October 2006

Borrelia burgdorferi causes Lyme disease, a multisystem illness that can persist in humans for many years. We describe recombination between homologous genes encoding the major outer surface proteins (Osps) A and B of B. burgdorferi which both deletes osp gene sequences and creates chimaeric gene fusions. Recombinant osp genes occur in multiple strains and encode unique proteins that lack some characteristic Osp epitopes. Antigenic variation in Osp through recombination may be relevant to the persistence of B. burgdorferi in an infected host, and has important implications for the utility of OspA and OspB as diagnostic or vaccine candidates for Lyme disease. We also describe Osp variation arising from nonsense mutations and sequence divergence, which may also represent significant sources of Osp polymorphism.

No Story, No Analysis?
Authors: COVINGTON COLINE
Published: October 2006

The construction of narrative is closely linked to identity formation, or the establishment of a sense of self, with its attendant notions of history and continuity and lineal development. Story‐making within analysis is seen as being at the heart of symbolic process and of psychic change. The story serves as a form of transitional object combining factual with imaginal, internal and external realities, and reflects our desire to internalize one another. With regard to clinical work, this paper explores the following ideas specifically: the apparent absence of narrative in the analysis of some patients; the use of story as a defence in the service of a false self; how we differentiate ‘true’ and ‘false’ stories; and, lastly, the therapeutic value of reconstruction as a form of story making.
The Piano, the Animus, and the Colonial Experience
Authors: Izod John
Published: October 2006

Focused principally on an analysis of Ada, the mute heroine of Jane Campion's The Piano, this article shows how post–Jungian animus theory illuminates that character's mysterious personality. In particular, Ann Ulanov's thoughts about animus development are connected with Demaris Wehr's observations concerning the internalization of social oppression in an argument that shows how, notwithstanding she is a woman, Ada is a product of colonial oppression. Her mythological antecedents are also considered, and are particularly marked in that she resembles the handless maiden in Marie–Louise von Franz's analysis of that fairy tale. In this context Ada's ultimate renunciation of her husband is symbolically reinforced by the developing personality of her daughter Flora. The changes in both characters can be seen as implying not only the rebirth of Ada's psyche but also the emergence of a new psychological readiness to throw off the colonial mantle.
On the physics and psychology of the transference as an interactive field
Authors: Mansfield Victor , Spiegelman J. Marvin
Published: October 2006

An analyst and a physicist combine their disciplines in studying the transference as an interactive field. Through a description of the history and evolution of the therapeutic relationship as one moving from asymmetry to symmetry, from reductive causal interaction to acausal, synchronistic expression of meaning, we describe four levels of interaction.

To unpack the notion of interactive field we describe the physics of local, causal, classical fields and directly connect them to the therapeutic encounter of the first two levels. The second two levels require discussion of nonlocal, acausal, quantum fields. In this connection, the subtle body and joint active imagination provide a physiological and symbolic experience of the interactive field.

Fundamental questions and challenges arise from this study regarding the relationship between analyst and analysand and psyche and soma. This continues and deepens the hoped for interplay between physics and depth psychology espoused by Jung, Pauli, Meier, and von Franz.

Coniunctio—in bodily and psychic modes: dissociation, devitalization and integration in a case of chronic fatigue syndrome
Authors: Holland Penelope
Published: October 2006

Three years of analytical psychotherapy with a professional woman in mid‐life, suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), is described. Gradual recovery merged into mid‐life changes; marriage, along with a new balance of maternal and paternal imagos, enabled her to trust enough to become pregnant—coniunctio in the most primal bodily and psychic modes.

Her life‐long, schizoid type pattern, ‘the pendulum of closeness and isolation’, with its extreme of psycho‐physical collapse and devitalization, was replayed in therapy. The analyst's symbolic attitude is emphasized, containing the patient's initial affective explosion and validating the physicality of her condition. Mirroring and steady rhythmic attunement became a new, pre‐verbal, source of trust—vitalization; differentiation and separation replaced defensive splitting and dissociation. Then the overwhelmingly powerful bodily/maternal could be counterbalanced by the masculine, and a transitional space emerged for symbolic work.

Both the regressive and the dynamic aspects of CFS are located in the earliest undifferentiated, archetypal, bodily/psychic modes, when the frustration of primary needs evokes the defences of the self. It is argued that our psychodynamic understanding can contribute to the stalemate in seeing chronic fatigue syndrome as either an organic illness or depression, and that a new linking of the somatic and psychic calls for a new professional collaboration.
Klein's Archaic Oedipus Complex and Its Possible Relationship to the Myth of the Labyrinth: Notes on the Origin of Courage
Authors: Grotstein James S.
Published: October 2006

The ancient Greek myth linking the images of the labyrinth and the Minotaur provides an allegory for Melanie Klein's conception of the archaic Oedipus complex as well as a vivid illustration of Winnicott's notions of object usage and the ‘subjective object’. The labyrinth is suggestive of mother's body as the first area for an infant's exploration and putative sadistic conquest. The Minotaur, in turn, suggests the infant's unconscious phantasies about the content of mother's body, namely such projective identifications onto that body as the paternal penis and the ‘internal babies'. Further, the heroic dynamic personified by Theseus in the myth of the labyrinth metaphorically signifies what is here proposed as a developmental line that involves the courage to do a number of things, including to become, to create, to seek, to explore, to do, to challenge, to undertake risks, to accept, to rescue, to initiate, to think, to know and to realize. The Minotaur can thus be thought to serve as a universal subjective signifier for an ‘Object of Challenge', which, if not successfully dealt with by the ego‐development of the infant, transforms that default into the ‘Object of Nemesis'. Ultimately, this myth of mastery speaks to the psychoanalytic process itself as well as casting light on the transformative aspects of sexual intercourse as a personal healing ritual.
Synchronicity as A Basis of Analytic Attitude
Authors: Bright George
Published: October 2006

My aim is to describe Jung's approach to the experience of the chaotic, which could equally be termed the irrational, the non‐ego, the unordered or prima materia, and to extract from this a clinical approach to the analytic patient which, in Jung's own writings, is often more implicit than explicit. My interest in this enquiry arises from the clinical experience of the unconscious in the form of transference/ countertransference, involving relentless pressure on both analyst and analysand to attempt to impute meaning and order. I examine Jung's work ‘Synchronicity: an acausal connecting principle’ and extrapolate from it what I think to be its unique contribution to hermeneutics ‐ the ontologically‐based concept of a psychoid understanding of meaning and pattern. In the second part of the paper, I discuss the application to analytic work of Jung's hermeneutic approach. I look at how analysts relate to meaning in terms of their relationship to theory. I illustrate this by comparing two short psychoanalytic papers on aggression, an instinct which is often seen as engendering splitting and which tends therefore to promote the dissociations which Jung was trying to address in ‘Synchronicity’. I then illustrate with clinical material how Jungian analysts might relate to meaning in their approach to the patient. Together, these form the basis of what is commonly called ‘analytic attitude’, which I see as the basis for a distinctively Jungian identity for analytic practice.

CROSS‐CULTURAL TESTING: AN ASPECT OF THE RESISTANCE REACTION
Authors: Yousef Fathi S.
Published: October 2006

This paper is based on a classroom experience that showed the need of teaching American culture before attempting to teach American literature meaningfully to foreigners. The students in this learning situation were the Middle‐Eastern employees of an American organization in the school year 1966–1967. The teachers found out the students interpreted literature in terms of their own native culture. Many times, a behavioral pattern had opposite meanings in American and Middle Eastern cultures. Consequently, a course in American culture was taught. In objective quizzes, whenever the questions on American behavioral patterns came directly from the book and were of a general nature, the students did well. But when the questions related to everyday‐life situations, the students unconsciously answered according to their own native behavioral patterns. Such answers revealed intense, vehement resistance to the target culture, due to prejudice and mistrust of the foreign behavioral codes. The students’ work careers depended on their school records. The answers to quiz questions were reliable. Gradually, the students responses showed less resistance to the target, cultural patterns of behavior.
THE ROLE AND FUNCTION OF THE NATIVE TEACHER
Authors: Bedford Richard C.
Published: October 2006

The native teacher's present frustration and confusion as to his role and function under the oral‐aural approach can be eliminated via his acceptance of a division of teaching labor in which full utilization is made of his fluency in his students' native language. Employing this fluency, usually unavailable to the foreign teacher, the native teacher can attempt clarification of essential contrasts in evaluation of experience as well as in underlying social values distinguishing the target language from the students' native language. Moreover, that fluency can immediately alert the native teacher to typical student substitution of structures of the native language in their target language utterances. And by his sensitizing of the foreign teacher to instances of this common resort to silent translation, the native teacher can enhance the value of the foreigner's teaching performance. Furthermore, it is by such day‐to‐day cooperative teaching activity that the native teacher can not only increase his own fluency but can best serve his students as inspiring exemplar of both the possibility of learning the target language and the necessity of seizing on every occasion to speak it.
THE RELEVANCE OF INTENSIVE TRAINING IN ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE FOR UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
Authors: Mason Charles
Published: October 2006

Intensive work in English as a foreign language is often an American university prerequisite to full academic work for entering foreign students. Questionable are the underlying assumptions that English proficiency norms have been established as predictors of academic success and that intensive EFL programs are the best means of increasing English proficiency. With a control group of 15 subjects, who took the compulsory University of Hawaii English Language Institute program for foreign students, and an experimental group of nine subjects, who were allowed to follow their regular academic programs, the hypotheses were tested that there would be no differences between the groups on tests of English skills after one semester or in overall academic success after one school year. No significant differences were found, except that the experimental group earned significantly more semester hours credit during the year. The implications are, at least for many intermediate to advanced foreign students, that intensive EFL work may be a waste of time.
RANGE OF EFFECTIVENESS AS A COMPREHENSIVE MEASURE OF COMMUNICATION SKILL1
Authors: Reeback Robert T.
Published: October 2006

A communicator's skill can be represented as the social distance across which he has an effect upon audiences. In a hypothetical “sun and planets” model, the communicator reaches audiences whose orbits are increasingly distant from himself; these audiences are expected to become more heterogeneous and less predictable with greater (social) distance. In a preliminary experiment, 24 compositions written by second‐grade Mexican‐American children were presented to a panel of six adult judges. Each judge chose the six compositions he considered “best” (most proficient or preferred) and the six he considered “worst.” The frequencies with which particular compositions were chosen and the level of agreement among judges were studied. Two tentative findings were discussed: the pattern of choices of “worst” compositions was not the mirror image of the pattern of choices of “best” compositions, and there was high agreement on choices for “best” compositions among the three judges who seemed most distant from the children.
THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS
Authors: Whitman Randal L. , Jackson Kenneth L.
Published: October 2006

The hypothesis that contrastive analysis can serve to predict levels of difficulty that non‐native speakers will have in learning English syntactic patterns is examined. Two tests of English syntax were administered to nearly 2500 Japanese students. The test results are compared to predictions of the relative difficulty of the test items that were derived from four different contrastive analyses. The comparison indicates that the contrastive analyses are inadequate predictors of subject performance. Certain properties of subject performance are discussed, especially the role that the complexity of English constructions may play in determining Japanese difficulty on the tests.
