3种粪便标本保存方法对肠道菌群检测结果影响的比较研究

比较3种粪便标本保存方法对肠道菌群检测结果的影响,为采集粪便标本后短期保存方法的选择提供参考。收集10名志愿者的新鲜粪便标本,对每份标本分别采用4℃、室温(25℃)、无水乙醇保存4 h,然后统一放入-80℃低温冰箱冻存。随后进行细菌DNA提取,并对16S rRNA V4区基因进行扩增,应用Illumina MiSeq平台进行高通量测序,比较3种保存方法下肠道菌群多样性和组成差异。结果表明,3种保存方法下,肠道菌群在Alpha多样性方面无统计学差异(P0.05)。肠道菌群属水平比较,毛螺旋菌属(Lachnospira)在无水乙醇组中相对丰度高于4℃组和室温组(P0.05),萨特菌属(Sutterella)在无水乙醇组中相对丰度高于4℃组(P0.05),而真杆菌属(Eubacterium)在无水乙醇组中相对丰度低于室温组(P0.05)。PCoA分析发现,当UniFrac距离加权后,4℃和无水乙醇保存同一受试者粪便标本,菌群结果较为接近,而室温保存会导致个别受试者菌群出现离散现象。无水乙醇短期保存粪便标本,肠道菌群多样性、组成以及结构保持稳定,能满足不同研究的需要。此外,无水乙醇具备价格低廉、便于携带等优点。因此,在新鲜粪便标本不能立即低温冻存时,无水乙醇保存可以作为首要选择。     

粪便留取量对粪便中细菌结构和功能的影响CSCD

目的探究不同粪便留取量对肠道菌群构成研究结果的影响,为肠道菌群构成研究中粪便样本的采集方式提供参考。方法本研究分别对全便和部分粪便进行预处理,并使用PacBio SMRT测序技术对10名志愿者的20份粪便样本进行了16S rRNA全长测序,通过多元统计学等手段对粪便中细菌的构成、多样性和功能进行比较分析。结果Eubacterium rectale、Eubacterium ventriosum和Allisonella histaminiformans等低丰度物种的相对丰度在不同粪便留取量中有一定差异,其在全便中的相对丰度均显著高于部分粪便(P<0.05)。但Wilcoxon配对检验发现粪便留取量对肠道菌群结构、多样性和功能的影响均无显著性差异(P>0.05)。不同个体间肠道菌群结构存在明显差异,且粪便留取量的影响远小于个体差异。结论全便和部分粪便两种粪便留取量对检测微生物的组成、多样性和功能无显著影响,因此取部分粪便即可满足对肠道菌群研究的要求。     

成年与未成年圈养林麝粪便菌群多样性的比较

本研究旨在解析林麝未成年组(n=10)和成年组(n=10)之间的菌群差异。收集林麝新鲜粪便,提取总DNA,利用带标签的通用引物扩增16S rRNA V3-V4区,使用Illumina Miseq 300PE测序平台对扩增产物进行Miseq双端测序,通过计算ACE和Shannon等多样性指数,以及微生物组成成分和距离聚类分析,揭示组成结构与差异。α多样性分析表明成年组微生物的多样性丰富度略高于未成年组,但不存在显著差异性(P>0.05)。未成年组和成年组均是厚壁菌门(Firmicutes)、拟杆菌门(Bacteroidetes)和变形菌门(Proteobacteria)所占的比例较高。成年组Proteobacteria比例明显高,而Firmicutes比例较低。LEfSe分析表明有12个显著差异的细菌分类。两组在Firmicutes门存在显著差异的细菌较少,而在Proteobacteria上存在显著差异的细菌较多。本研究证明在不同年龄阶段,微生物的丰富度和多样性不存在显著差异,细菌的组成成分也相同。但是在组成比例上存在差异性,间接反映了不同年龄阶段营养吸收的不同需求。

目的:探索不同样品前处理方法对于不同类型病毒检测的效果。方法:分别将携带乙肝病毒(双链环状DNA病毒)、丙肝病毒(单正链RNA病毒)、TTV(Torque teno virus)(单链环状DNA病毒)的血清等比例混合,模拟混合感染,然后分别采用多重置换扩增(MDA)和随机锚定PCR扩增并进行高通量测序,同时以原始样品(未扩增)直接高通量测序作为对照。结果:原始样品(未扩增)直接测序,产出的数据大部分为人类的序列;MDA方法中绝大部分数据为TTV、乙肝病毒;随机锚定PCR扩增方法中绝大部分数据为乙肝病毒。结论:MDA方法适合扩增环状病毒,随机锚定PCR扩增适合含量高的病毒,不做任何处理直接高通量测序检测病毒效果最差。本研究可为指导不同类型病原体如何选择扩增方案提供借鉴。     

DNA提取对微生物多样性测序分析的影响

运用高通量测序技术分析复杂样品中微生物种群的变化情况,已经成为目前微生物研究领域的热点问题之一。而微生物的样品准备,如DNA提取和16S可变区的扩增等,对于测序完成后的数据分析以及微生物原始群落组成的影响是至关重要的。采用国产试剂盒(天根土壤微生物基因组提取试剂盒)和进口试剂盒(MOBIO土壤微生物基因组提取试剂盒)分别对土壤样品和羊瘤胃食糜样品进行DNA提取。然后选取总DNA起始量为25ng,对16S V3可变区进行PCR扩增和文库构建,最后通过数据分析比较不同试剂盒提取的DNA对微生物多样性变化的影响,包括OTU数目、稀释曲线、微生物数量及物种种类等。研究发现,在相同DNA模板量和PCR条件下,进口试剂盒提取的DNA能够获得更多的微生物种类。

Photoregulation of seed germination of wild-type and of an aurea-mutant of tomato

Seed germination of an aurea mutant of tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is promoted by continuous irradiation with red, far-red or long-wavelength far-red (758 nm) light as well as by cyclic irradiations (5 min red or 5 min far-red/25 min darkness). Far-red light applied immediately after each red does not change the germination behaviour. Seed germination of the isogenic wild-type, cv. UC-105, is promoted by continuous and cyclic red light while it is inhibited by continuous and cyclic far-red light and by continious 758 nm irradiation. Far-red irradiation reverses almost completely the promoting effect of red light. The promoting effect (in the aurea mutant) and the inhibitory effect (in the wild-type) of continuous far-red light do not show photon fluence rate dependency above 20 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹. It is concluded that phytochrome controls tomato seed germination throgh low energy responses in both the wild type and the au mutant. The promoting effect of continuous and cyclic far-red light in the au mutant can be attributed to a greater sensitivity to P_fr.

Cause of Senescence of Nine Sorts of Flowers

The levels of endogenous phytohormones and respiratory rate in nine sorts of flowers such as Cymbidium faberi Rolfe, Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth and others were investigated both at full bloom and senescence and meanwhile the effect of exogenous phytohormones on prolonging the blossoms and promoting ethylene production were tested. There is a high content of endogenous ethylene in all the long-lived flowere, about 3–16 folds higer than the short-lived ones. There is a high level of ABA at full blooming flowers of short-lived flowers, in which there is no or only some cytokinins in it, but the ratio of CTK (6BA+zeatin)/ABA is smaller(l.7). The endogenous ABA reached a much higher level at senescence in all nine sorts of flowers, so it is reasonable to consider that it is ABA which plays an important role of regulation in controlling flower's senescence. There is a much higher level of GA3 and zeatin in the long-lived flowers which is not demonstrated in the shortlived ones. The respiratory rate is one of the factors controtling the longevity of flowers, but it does not play a decided role. Application of 6BA and zeatin prolongs distinctly orchid’s longevity, however exogenous IAA through the promotive action on ethylene production, evidently extends the longevity of the flowers of the Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth.

A complex analysis of seasonal fluctuations of the mean group parameters of the system of regulation of lipid peroxidation has been performed in liver of Balb/c mice. Association of lipid characteristics and morphophysiological parameters is studied in the Balb/c mouse liver. An inter-connection is revealed between the liver index and the amount of lysoforms of phospholipids, the scale and character of the interconnection differing essentially depending on proportion of phos-phatidylcholine in mouse liver phospholipids.

Physiological characteristics of various species of strains of carboxydobacteria

Seven strains of aerobic carbon monoxide-oxidizing bacteria (carboxydebacteria) when growing on CO as sole source of carbon and energy had doubling times which ranged from 12–42 h. The activity profiles obtained after discontinuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation indicated that the CO-oxidizing enzymes are soluble and the hydrogenases are membrane-bound in all strains examined. The CO-oxidizing enzymes of Pseudomonas carboxydohydrogena, Pseudomonas carboxydoflava, Comamonas compransoris, and the so far unidentified strains OM2, OM3, and OM4 had a molecular weight of 230,000; that of Achromobacter carboxydus amounted to 170,000. The molecular weights of the CO-oxidizing and H₂-oxidizing enzymes turned out to be identical. The cell sonicates were shown to catalyze the oxidation of both CO and H₂ with methylene blue, thionine, phenazine methosulfate, toluylene blue, dichlorophenolindophenol, cytochrome c or ferricyanide as electron acceptors. Methyl viologen, benzyl viologen, FAD⁺, FMN⁺, and NAD(P)⁺ were not reduced. The spectrum of electron acceptors was identical for all strains tested. Neither free formate, hydrogen nor oxygen gas were involved in the CO-oxidation reaction. Methylene blue was reduced by CO at a 1:1 molar ratio. The results indicate that CO-oxidation by carboxydobacteria is catalyzed by identical or similar enzymes and that the reaction obeys the equation CO+H₂OCO₂+2H⁺+2e^- as previously shown for Pseudomonas carboxydovorans.Dedicated to Otto Kandler remembering almost three decades of enjoyable cooperation     

Modulation of allostery of pyruvate kinase by shifting of an ensemble of microstates

Since the introduction of the concepts of allostery about four decades ago, much advancement has been made in elucidating the structure-function correlation in allostery. However, there are still a number of issues that remain unresolved. In this review we used mammalian pyruvate kinase (PK) as a model system to understand the role of protein dynamics in modulating cooperativity. PK has a triosephosphate isomerase (TIM)(α/β)₈ barrel structural motif. PK is an ideal system to address basic questions regarding regulatory mechanisms about this common (α/β)₈ structural motif. The simplest model accounting for all of the solution thermodynamic and kinetic data on ligand-enzyme interactions involves two conformational states, inactive E^T and active E^R. These conformational states are represented by domain movements. Further studies provide the first evidence for a differential effect of ligand binding on the dynamics of the structural elements, not major secondary structural changes. These data are consistent with our model that allosteric regulation of PK is the consequence of perturbation of the distribution of an ensemble of states in which the inactive E^T and active E^R represent the two extreme end states. Sequence differences and ligands can modulate the distribution of states leading to alterations of functions. The future work includes: defining the network of functionally connected residues; elucidating the chemical principles governing the sequence differences which affect functions; and probing the nature of mutations on the stability of the secondary structural elements, which in turn modulate allostery.
