Summary Sex determination in the monogenic blowfly Chrysomya rufifacies is controlled by a dominant or epistatic female sex realizer (F) having sex predetermining properties (F/f=female-producing female; f/f=male-producing female or male, respectively). To determine (1) the cell type in which the maternal effect gene F is expressed. and (2) the autonomous or nonautonomous sexual differentiation of the germ cells germ-line mosaics were constructed in C. rufifacies by pole-cell transplantations. The production of bisexual progeny by germ-line mosaics generated by transplanting pole cells between both types of female embryos shows that the F gene product is synthesized by germ-line cells themselves, not by maternal (intra- or extraovarian) somatic cells. Pole cell transplantations between male and female embryos yielded completely fertile heterosexual germ-line mosaics thus demonstrating phenotypic sex reversal of donor germ cells in a host of the opposite sex. Consequently, the sexual differentiation of a germ cell in C. rufifacies is not determined by its own genotypic constitution but is induced by the surrounding somatic cells.The male sex of F/f individuals generated by fertilization with F-bearing sperm from a heterosexual germ-line mosaic indicates that the F gene is either not expressed during spermatogenesis and early embryogenesis or is expressed too late or in not sufficient amounts to direct differentiation into the female sex. This finding is consistent with the assumption that progamic expression of F is found exclusively during oogenesis in F/f females. 相似文献

Observations of male meiosis and female chromosome number indicate that eight species of Pellenes have the X1X2O male, X1X1X2X2 female sex chromosome system typical of salticids, four species have an X1X2X3Y male, X1X1X2X3X3X3 female system, and one species has both X1X2O and X1X2X3Y males. This is the first report of a Y chromosome in spiders. It is hypothesized that the X1X2X2Y system was derived from an X1X2O system by a tandem X-autosome fusion which yielded the X2 and a centric autosome-autosome fusion which yielded the Y. Data on heteropycnosis, chiasmata, segregation, chromosome number and arm length support this hypothesis. The distribution of the X1X2X3Y system within the genus is phylogenetically confusing and suggests that the two sex chromosome systems have been maintained together as a polymorphism in some lineages for long periods of time or that there have been repeated derivations of the X1X2X3Y or X1X2O systems. 相似文献

Summary 2-Amino-2-deoxyuridine reacts efficiently with nucleoside 5-phosphorimidazolides in aqueous solution. The dinucleoside monophosphate analogues were obtained in yields exceeding 80% under conditions in which little reaction occurs with the natural nucleosides.In a similar way, the 5-phosphorimidazolide of 2-amino-2-deoxyuridine undergoes self-condensation in aqueous solution to give a complex mixture of oligomers.The phosphoramidate bond in the dinucleoside monophosphate analogues is stable for several days at room temperature and pH 7. The mechanisms of their hydrolysis under acidic and alkaline conditions are described.Abbreviations A

The 5-upstream non-coding region of an FI-carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase) gene of Aspergillus aculeatus No. F-50 was obtained and sequenced up to –777 nucleotide in pCMG23. The 5-upstream region of different lengths were constructed and fused to a reporter gene (Escherichia coli lacZ) in pAN923-42BD, and the resulted constructs were introduced into the A. nidulans. The -galactosidase activities of the transformant with 5-upstream fragment of larger than 319 bp were expressed by the induction, but that of 109 bp drastically decreased to the basal level. This suggests that the region between –109 and –319 of the 5-upstream non-coding region is involved in the regulation of the FI-CMCase expression. 相似文献

Summary Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in the basal-lateral segment of plasma membranes from proximal tubule cells of the rabbit renal cortex was studied and compared to that in the brush border segment of the plasma membrane. Both adenosine 3,5-monophosphate and guanosine 3,5-monophosphate were hydrolyzed by the basal-lateral membrane, but activity varied differently with the two substrates in a complex concentration-dependent manner. Activity with adenosine 3,5-monophosphate was greater than, equal to, or less than with guanosine 3,5-monophosphate, at concentrations of 1000, 100, and 10 to 1 m, respectively. Basal-lateral membrane phosphodiesterase activities at 1 and 500 m substrate exhibited differential responses to pH, metals, heat, and a heat stable inhibitor. Stimulation by guanosine 3,5-monophosphate and inosine 3,5-monophosphate of adenosine 3,5-monophosphate hydrolysis was found in basal-lateral but not in brush border membranes. This stimulation was potentiated by ethyleneglycol-bis(-aminoethyl ether)N,N-tetraacetic acid and ethylenediaminetetraacetate, inhibited by Triton X-100, and totally blocked by Zn2+. The findings indicate that multiple forms of phosphodiesterase are present in the basal-lateral segment and these differ from the activities in the brush border region of the plasma membrane. The characteristics of (i) allosteric, guanosine 3,5-monophosphate-sensitivity of adensoine 3,5-monophosphate phosphodiesterase, and (ii) relatively high guanosine 3,5-monophosphate phosphodiesterase activity, in basal-lateral membranes, which are also enriched in adenylate and guanylate cyclase, suggest an important physiological role for these phosphodiesterases in the regulation of net production of cyclic nucleotides in the renal cortex. 相似文献

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a pesti- and flavi-like virus, which contains a highly conserved 5-untranslated region (UTR). This region is implicated in the regulation of both translation and RNA replication. To examine the possible cellular factors involved in HCV replication, we performed UV cross-linking experiments to detect cellular proteins binding to 5-UTR of HCV RNA. No cytoplasmic proteins were found to cross-link to 5-UTR. Surprisingly, when nuclear extracts were used for UV cross-linking, a major protein of 110 kD and several other minor proteins were detected. Competition assays confirmed that the binding of the 110-kD protein was specific to the 5-UTR. The protein-binding site was mapped within the 78-nt region between nucleotides 199 and 277 from the 5 end of the viral RNA. This protein was present in several different cell lines tested. No cellular proteins specifically bound to the complementary strands of the 5-UTR. We have also shown by an RNA-protein blotting assay that 5-UTR bound to the HCV core protein, which can be translocated to the nuclei. These findings suggest that HCV RNA may enter nuclei by complexing with the viral core protein and interact with nuclear proteins that are involved in the regulation of RNA replication or translation. It is thus possible that HCV employs a replication strategy distinct from its related pestiviruses or flaviviruses. 相似文献

The subject RNA models the binding site for the coat protein of the R17 virus, as well as the ribosome recognition sequence for the R17 replicase gene. With an RNA of this size, overlaps among the sugar protons complicate assignments of the 1H NMR spectrum. The cross peaks that overlap significantly in 2D-NOE spectra can frequently be resolved by introducing a third, in our approach the double-quantum, frequency axis. In particular the planes in a 3D-NOE/2QC spectrum perpendicular to the 2Q axis are extremely useful, showing a highly informative repeating NOE-2Q pattern. In this experiment substantial J-coupling confers special advantages. This always occurs for geminal pairs (H5/H5 for RNA plus H2/H2 for DNA), as well as for H5/H6, for H3/H4 in sugars with substantial populations of the N-pucker, for H1/H2 for S-puckered sugars, and usually for H2/H3. For the 24-mer RNA hairpin the additional information from the 3D-NOE/2QC spectrum allowed assignment of all of the non-exchangeable protons, eliminating the need for stable-isotope labeling. 相似文献

Crude extracts of Rhodospirillum rubrum catalyzed the formation of acid-volatile radioactivity from (35S) sulfate, (35S) adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, and (35S) 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphosulfate. An enzyme fraction similar to APS-sulfotransferases from plant sources was purified 228-fold from Rhodospirillum rubrum. It is suggested here that this enzyme is specific for adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, because the purified enzyme fraction metabolized adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, however, only at a rate of 1/10 of that with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate. Further, the reaction with 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphosulfate was inhibited with 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphate whereas this nucleotide had no effect on the reaction with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate. For this activity with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate the name APS-sulfotransferase is suggested. This APS-sulfotransferase needs thiols for activity; good rates were obtained with either dithioerythritol or reduced glutathione; other thiols like cysteine, 2-3-dimercaptopropanol or mercaptoethanol are less effective. The electron donor methylviologen did not catalyze this reaction. The pH-optimum was about 9.0; the apparent K
m for adenosine-5-phosphosulfate was determined to be 0.05 mM with this so far purified enzyme fraction. Enzyme activity was increased with K2SO4 and Na2SO4 and was inhibited by 5-AMP. These properties are similar to assimilatory APS-sulfotransferases from spinach and Chlorella.Abbreviations APS

Plausible prebiotic conditions for the phosphorylation of nucleosides by inorganic phosphate were reported by Lohrmann and Orgel in 1971. This reaction was carried out on heated dry films and promoted by urea. The major products formed were nucleoside-2:3 cyclicPs; 5-NMPs and other derivatives were also formed. Minor modifications of the Lohrmann and Orgel system have resulted in the preferential formation of 5-NMPs. In this modified system a 2-fold preference for phosphorylation of the 5-OH group over the 3(2)-OH group was observed and the formation of other derivatives was minimized. The small amounts of bis compounds that were formed in this system could be quantitatively removed by selective binding to the mineral hydroxylapatite at moderate ionic strengths. It was also discovered that under hydrolytic conditions there was a 3:1 preference for removal of phosphates attached to the 3-OH group over the 5-OH group. A recycling procedure for obtaining additional 5-NMPs from bis compounds and 3-NMPs is proposed. 相似文献

Summary Photoreactive probes for the hydrophobic pocket of the liver fatty acid-binding protein, 11-(5-azido-salicylamido)-undecanoic acid (5 ASU) and its acetyl ester (Ac5 ASU), were synthesized and their interaction with the protein was assessed. Fatty acid-binding proteins are closely related proteins which are abundantly expressed in tissues with active lipid metabolism. A simple model that assumes that the protein possesses a single kind of sites fitted the binding of radioiodinated 5 ASU to L-FABP satisfactorily. The apparent dissociation constant, 1.34×10–7 M, evidenced a slightly higher affinity than that reported for C16–C20 fatty acids. Consistent with the binding curve, 5 ASU effectively competed with palmitic acid for the hydrophobic sites and the effect was nearly complete for concentrations of 1 gmM; oleic acid, in turn, displaced the radiolabelled probe. Irradiation at 366 nm of125I-5 ASU bound to L-FABP caused the covalent cross-linking of the reagent. The amount of radioactivity covalently bound reached a maximum after 2 min thus agreeing with the photo-activation kinetics of the unlabelled compound that evidenced a t1/2 of 31.1 sec. The yield with which probes bound to L-FABP became covalently linked to the protein, appraised after SDS-PAGE of irradiated samples, was estimated as 23 and 26 per cent for 5 ASU and Ac5 ASU respectively. In turn, irradiation of L-FABP incubated with 5ASU or Ac5 ASU resulted in the irreversible loss of about one fourth its ability to bind palmitic acid. Both results, taken together, suggested that the derivatives are linked to the protein through the sites for fatty acids. When cross-linking of125I-5 ASU was performed after incubation with delipidated cytosol and products were analyzed by SDS-PAGE, a band was visualized in a position similar to that of purified L-FABP.Abbreviations FABP

Summary Nucleoside-5-triphosphates such as 5-ATP and 5-GTP can be produced efficiently and continuously from 3-mononucleotides such as 3-AMP and 3-GMP by a series of processes consisting of two reaction phases using dried cells of Candida sp. N-25-2 (a hydrocarbon assimilating yeast). Moreover, incidentally to the 5-triphosphates, free uracil is yielded almost stoichiometrically from 3-CMP and 3-UMP which, as is well known, are main concomitant products depolymerized from RNA. Uracil is then also available for many usage. 相似文献

Summary The self-condensation of 2(3)-O-glycyl esters of adenosine, adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) and P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate in 6.2 mM solutions at pH 8.0 and -5°C in the presence of 12.5 mM poly(U) yields approximately 3 times as much diketopiperazine as reactions without poly(U). As the concentration of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate is decreased from 6.2 mM to 1.5 mM the yield of diketopiperazine in the presence of poly(U) decreases slightly from 6.6% to 5.2%, whereas, in the absence of poly(U) the yield of diketopiperazine decreases substantially from 2.4% to 0.75%. The enhanced yield of diketopiperazine that is attributed to the template action of poly(U) is temperature dependent and is observed only at temperatures below 10°C (5°C to -5°C) for 6.2 mM 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) and below 23°C (15°C to -5°C) for 6.2 mM 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate. The absence of a template effect at high temperatures is attributed to the melting of the organized helices. The hydrolysis half-lives at pH 8.0 and -5°C of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine, 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate), 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate, and 5-O-(glycyl)-adenosine in the presence of poly(U) are substantially larger than their half-lives in the absence of poly(U). The condensation of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine yields 5% of 5-O-(glycyl)-adenosine in the presence of poly(U) compared to 0.7% in the absence of poly(U).Abbreviations DKP

Summary We have studied the reactions between adenosine 5-phosphorimidazolide and 9-(2-amino-2-deoxyxylofuranosyl) adenine (I) or 3-methylamino-3-deoxyadenosine (II), both with and without a poly (U) template. We find that both amino compounds react much more rapidly than does adenosine, in the absence of a template. The rate of reaction is greatly enhanced by a poly (U) template in the case of I, but the enhancement is slight in the case of II.Abbreviations A

Effects of different forms of C2-5A (2,5ApApA; 2,5ApApepoxyA; and 3,5ApApA) on high voltage-activated (HVA) calcium currents in GH3 cells were studied using the whole-cell patch-clamp recording technique. Addition of 10 µM 2,5ApApA, a core (dephosphorylated) oligoadenylate, to the pipette solution induced an increase in HVA calcium current. Ten minutes after the whole-cell configuration was established, the current magnitude was enhanced about twofold compared with that observed at 2 min. High concentration of Mg2+ (5 µM) in the pipette solution blocked this effect. 2,5ApA and 3,5ApApA oligoadenylates, and products of 2,5A hydrolysis, adenosine and AMP, did not change the value of HVA current. A chemically modified analog of 2,5ApApA (2,5ApApepoxyA) has been the oligoadenylate most stable under phosphodiesterase action. Addition of 2,5ApApepoxyA to the pipette solution under the same conditions caused a smaller effect than 2,5ApApA did.Neirofiziologiya/Neurophysiology, Vol. 26, No. 6, pp. 405–408, November–December, 1994. 相似文献
