UV-B radiation suppresses cell-mediated immunity. Histidine forms trans-urocanic acid (truns-UCA) enzymatically in the stratum comeum. Photoisomerization of trans-UCA to cis-urocanic acid (cis-UCA) has been proposed for the initiation of an immunosuppressive process. Many microorganisms described in

## Abstract The identity of the measles virus receptor has been controversial. Several years ago CD46 was identified as a cellular receptor for the Edmonston strain of measles virus, but most clinical isolates of measles virus, which are most efficiently isolated in the marmoset B cell line B95a, c
To test the hypothesis that substrate-induced steric compression between His 57 and Asp 102 at the active site of chymotrypsin can increase the basicity of His 57, we have synthesized the cis-and trans-isomers of 2-bromo-3-(N-tritylimidazole)-2-propenoic acid and 2-chloro-3-(N-tritylimidazole)-2-pro
