The combination of laser microdissection and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) has been developed to perform proteomic analysis on specific populations of cells in cancer tissues. However, as conventional low sensitivity silver staining was used for spot detection, the microdissection required to obtain an adequate amount of protein for 2-D PAGE is laborious and only a restricted number of protein spots could be visualized. As a consequence, this technology was impractical for direct clinical applications and had a limited impact on cancer studies. To solve these problems, we developed an application in which fluorescent dyes label the proteins extracted from microdissected tissues prior to 2-D PAGE separation. In this application, a small amount of protein, less than 6.6 microg, was enough to generate a 2-D profile with approximately 1500 protein spots. This technique was applied to compare the proteome of normal intestinal epithelium with that of adenoma in Min mice. Thirty-seven protein spots reproducibly showed significant differences in intensities. Mass spectrometric analysis and Western blotting identified eight of them, including prohibitin, 14-3-3zeta, tropomyosin 3 and Hsp84. These results indicate that fluorescence labeling of proteins from microdissected tissues prior to 2-D PAGE is a powerful cancer proteomic study tool. 相似文献

Agamospermous species account for a large proportion of the species ofLimonium. Agamospermy is indicated by uneven polyploidy or aneuploidy, low pollen stainability and by the presence of monomorphic self-incompatible populations. The taxonomic treatment of agamospermous taxa varies from recognition of all of them at the same specific rank or by utilising a range of ranks in the taxonomic hierarchy. The influence of evolutionary hypotheses on taxonomic systems is considered. Molecular data provide a means of measuring the genetical relationships of taxa and establishing groups in a taxonomic hierarchy. 相似文献

Electrophoretic map of boar sperm plasma membrane polypeptides and localization and fractionation of specific polypeptide subclasses 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A high resolution, two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoretic map of the plasma membrane (PM) polypeptides from the ejaculated boar spermatozoon is described. 2-D silver-stained polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) gels revealed over 250 polypeptides; Coomassie blue staining revealed more than 100. Fifty Coomassie-staining polypeptides were catalogued and biochemically characterized, with twenty of these designated major sperm PM polypeptides. Cavitation pressures ranging from 50 PSI to 1000 PSI were used to enrich 2-D maps either in head PM (50 PSI) or in flagellar PM (1000 PSI) and provided tentative localization of certain PM polypeptides. Immunoabsorption chromatography showed that most major polypeptides seen in the 2-D map were antigenic. Major polypeptide bands from single dimensional (1-D) gels were excised, antibodies against them were produced in rabbits, and the polypeptides were localized via indirect fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) technique. Cross-reacting antigenic determinants in the PAGE PM polypeptides were determined by transblotting and staining the transblots by an indirect peroxidase technique. Cross-reactivity was extensive with several polypeptide groups, but specific enough with others to allow tentative localization. Lectin affinity chromatography using Con A, WGA, RCA-1, PNA, and DBA indicated the lectin specificity of PM polypeptides. These data together with periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) and carbohydrate-specific silver staining permitted identification of glycoproteins in the 2-D maps. FITC coupled to specific lectins showed the regional distribution of these lectins on the sperm surface. The 2-D polypeptide map and the catalogue of properties of major Coomassie-stained PM polypeptides provides a reference for future studies in the boar and other species. 相似文献

The recent multiplication of cladistic hypotheses for many zoological groups poses a challenge to zoological nomenclature following the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature: in order to account for these hypotheses, we will need many more ranks than currently allowed in this system, especially in lower taxonomy (around the ranks genus and species). The current Code allows the use of as many ranks as necessary in the family-series of nomina (except above superfamily), but forbids the use of more than a few ranks in the genus and species-series. It is here argued that this limitation has no theoretical background, does not respect the freedom of taxonomic thoughts or actions, and is harmful to zoological taxonomy in two respects at least: (1) it does not allow to express in detail hypothesized cladistic relationships among taxa at lower taxonomic levels (genus and species); (2) it does not allow to point taxonomically to low-level differentiation between populations of the same species, although this would be useful in some cases for conservation biology purposes. It is here proposed to modify the rules of the Code in order to allow use by taxonomists of an indeterminate number of ranks in all nominal-series. Such an 'expanded nomenclatural system' would be highly flexible and likely to be easily adapted to any new finding or hypothesis regarding cladistic relationships between taxa, at genus and species level and below. This system could be useful for phylogeographic analysis and in conservation biology. In zoological nomenclature, whereas robustness of nomina is necessary, the same does not hold for nomenclatural ranks, as the latter are arbitrary and carry no special biological, evolutionary or other information, except concerning the mutual relationships between taxa in the taxonomic hierarchy. Compared to the Phylocode project, the new system is equally unambiguous within the frame of a given taxonomic frame, but it provides more explicit and informative nomina for non-specialist users, and is more economic in terms of number of nomina needed to account for a given hierarchy. These ideas are exemplified by a comparative study of three possible nomenclatures for the taxonomy recently proposed by Hillis and Wilcox (2005) for American frogs traditionally referred to the genus Rana. 相似文献

1. The microheterogeneous alpha molecules of class II antigen, DR molecules obtained from human B cell line and I-A molecules from mouse B cell hybridoma cell line, were separated by 2-D PAGE, transferred onto NC sheets and N-linked oligosaccharide types were analyzed by staining with P.O./lectins. 2. This is the first report to show directly the type of oligosaccharide chain corresponding to each spot separated by 2-D PAGE. The glycosylation patterns of class II alpha chains in human and mouse were compared. 相似文献

Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE), followed by protein extraction and characterization with chemical sequencing or mass spectrometry (MS), is the most commonly used method to analyze complex protein systems such as cells and organelles. However, it is claimed that 2-D PAGE is a slow and labor-intensive technique and also needs subsequent efforts for one-by-one identification of proteins. Recently, the combined methods of Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometry, with preceding separation techniques such as capillary isoelectric focusing (CIEF) or liquid chromatography, have been demonstrated as high-throughput techniques suitable for proteomic analysis of protein systems. The studies which employ FTICR MS, aimed at the analysis of complex protein systems, have been reviewed, comparing their performance with that of 2-D PAGE. Also, the possibilities of combining 2-D PAGE and the FTICR MS method to analyze and reconstruct the structures and functions of complex systems are discussed. 相似文献

A taxometric analysis of 153 colonies of the agamospermous Limonium binervosum aggregate in the British Isles has revealed an ordered hierarchy of variation. A taxonomic treatment of the group describes five new species, redefines four others and describes other infraspecific variants as subspecies or varieties. Each species is morphologically distinct and has a defined geographic range. There are four widespread and morphologically variable species and five geographically restricted species (four monotypic). Limonium recurvum , previously described as a microspecies endemic to a small area of the Dorset Coast, has been widened to include all triploid (2 n = 27) L. binervosum agg. variants found also in W and N Ireland, SW Scotland and Cumbria. All other taxa are tetraploid, usually with 2 n = 35. 相似文献
