阿特拉津降解菌SA1的分离鉴定及其降解特性研究

为进行阿特拉津(AT)污染的生物修复,从AT降解混合菌群中,经长期的交替液体摇瓶培养和平板划线分离,筛选到一株能完全降解AT的菌株SA1。经生理生化特征及16S rDNA序列分析,将该菌鉴定为假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas sp.)。与已报道的AT降解菌Pseudomonas sp.ADP不同,SA1能以AT为唯一碳源、氮源和能源生长,培养基中添加铵盐不抑制SA1的降解功能,而添加葡萄糖时,累积的氰尿酸会被快速降解。SA1生长的最适温度为37℃,最适pH值为7.0。SA1的静息细胞在10℃~40℃或pH值4~11时均能高效降解AT,比ADP降解具有更广的pH和温度范围,表明SA1降解菌株具有广阔的应用前景。SA1中AT降解基因为保守的atzABCD,并含有IS1071的tnpA基因片段,传代过程中降解基因会以一定频率丢失。     

Intramolecular and intermolecular perturbation on electronic state of FAD free in solution and bound to flavoproteins: FTIR spectroscopic study by using the C = O stretching vibrations as probes

The intramolecular and intermolecular perturbation on the electronic state of FAD was investigated by FTIR spectroscopy by using the C=O stretching vibrations as probes in D(2)O solution. Natural and artificial FADs, i.e. 8-CN-, 8-Cl-, 8-H-, 8-OCH(3)-, and 8-NH(2)-FAD labelled by 2-(13)C, (18)O=C(2), or 4,10a-(13)C(2) were used for band assignments. The C(2)=O and C(4)=O stretching vibrations of oxidized FAD were shifted systematically by the substitution at the 8-position, i.e. the stronger the electron-donating ability (NH(2) > OCH(3) > CH(3) > H > Cl > CN) of the substituent, the lower the wavenumber region where both the C(2)=O and C(4)=O bands appear. In contrast, the C(4)=O band of anionic reduced FAD scarcely shifted. The 1,645-cm(-1) band containing C(2)=O stretching vibration shifted to 1,630 cm(-1) in the medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD)-bound state, which can be explained by hydrogen bonds at C(2)=O of the flavin ring. The band was observed at 1,607 cm(-1) in the complex of MCAD with 3-thiaoctanoyl-CoA. The 23 cm(-1) shift was explained by the charge-transfer interaction between oxidized flavin and the anionic acyl-CoA. In the case of electron-transferring flavoprotein, two bands associated with the C(4)=O stretching vibration were obtained at 1,712 and 1,686 cm(-1), providing evidence for the multiple conformations of the protein.     

New ITS genotype of Cryptococcus gattii isolated from an AIDS patient in Brazil

Based on combinations of nine variable nucleotides at nine different base positions in the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region, Cryptococcus gattii strains were classified into six genotypes. A new genotype of C. gattii , designated as ITS type 8, was isolated from an AIDS patient in Brazil. The ITS type 8 strain is closely related to the ITS type 4 strain, which has been frequently isolated in Brazil and the USA, but which shows ITS-signatured nucleotide difference at each nucleotide position. The ITS type 8 strain is also differentiated from all heretofore reported ITS types of C. gattii strains in the RAPD band patterns and IGS sequence information.     

8-Quinolinamines conjugated with amino acids are exhibiting potent blood-schizontocidal antimalarial activities

Alanine, lysine, ornithine and valine conjugated to primaquine and other 8-quinolinamine antimalarials were prepared for blood-schizontocidal antimalarial activity evaluation. The analogues were examined in vivo against Plasmodium berghei (drug-sensitive strain) and Plasmodium yoelii nigeriensis (highly virulent multi-drug-resistant strain) infected mice models. N(1)-[4-(5-Butoxy-4-ethyl-6-methoxy-8-quinolylamino)pentyl]-(2S)-2,6-diaminohexanamide (20) which showed curative activity at 5mg/kg in the P. berghei test emerged as the most effective compound. N(1)-[4-(4-Ethyl-5-hexoxy-6-methoxy-8-quinolylamino)pentyl]-(2S)-2,6-diaminohexanamide (22) exhibited curative activity at 50mg/kg against P. yoelii nigeriensis in mice and emerged as the most potent analogue against multi-drug resistant strain. The results of this study represent development of highly potent 8-quinolinamines for antimalarial drug development.     

Bacteroides sp. strain D8, the first cholesterol-reducing bacterium isolated from human feces

The microbial community in the human colon contains bacteria that reduce cholesterol to coprostanol, but the species responsible for this conversion are still unknown. We describe here the first isolation and characterization of a cholesterol-reducing bacterium of human intestinal origin. Strain D8 was isolated from a 10(-8) dilution of a fresh stool sample provided by a senior male volunteer with a high capacity to reduce luminal cholesterol to coprostanol. Cholesterol-to-coprostanol conversion by strain D8 started on the third day, while cells were in stationary phase, and was almost complete after 7 days. Intermediate products (4-cholesten-3-one and coprostanone) were occasionally observed, suggesting an indirect pathway for cholesterol-to-coprostanol conversion. Resting-cell assays showed that strain D8 could reduce 1.5 mumol of cholesterol/mg bacterial protein/h. Strain D8 was a gram-negative, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped organism identified as a member of the genus Bacteroides closely related to Bacteroides vulgatus, based on its morphological and biochemical characteristics. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain D8 was most similar (>99.5%) to those of two isolates of the recently described species Bacteroides dorei. Phylogenetic tree construction confirmed that Bacteroides sp. strain D8 clustered within an independent clade together with these B. dorei strains. Nevertheless, no cholesterol-reducing activity could be detected in cultures of the B. dorei type strain. Based on Bacteroides group-specific PCR-temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, there was no correlation between the presence of a band comigrating with the band of Bacteroides sp. strain D8 and cholesterol conversion in 11 human fecal samples, indicating that this strain is unlikely to be mainly responsible for cholesterol conversion in the human population.     

Expression and localization of angiotensin subtype receptor proteins in the hypertensive rat heart

The cellular localization of the AT(2) receptor and the regulation of its expression in hypertrophied left ventricle are not well known. We compared the expression of the cardiac AT(1) and AT(2) receptor in spontaneously hypertensive rats/Izumo strain (SHR/Izm) and Wistar Kyoto rats/Izumo strain (WKY/Izm), ages 4, 12, and 20 wk, by means of immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. In SHR/Izm, compared with WKY/Izm, blood pressure (161 +/- 2 vs. 120 +/- 2 mmHg at 12 wk, P 相似文献   

Separation of the Polypeptides of Chlamydia and Its Cell Walls by Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis

The polypeptide composition of Chlamydia was examined by acrylamide gel electrophoresis. When the polypeptide patterns of purified infectious elementary bodies (EB) of C. psittaci meningopneumonitis strain, 6BC strain, and C. trachomatis T'ang strain were compared, no significant differences were observed. The polypeptide patterns of whole EB and reticulate bodies (RB) appeared to overlap, but differences were found. In EB cell walls, nine main and several minor bands of polypeptides were observed in gels containing sodium lauryl sulfate, and the eighth main band from the top of the gel stained positive with periodic acid-Schiff reagent. On the other hand, the polypeptides in bands 3, 6, and 8 in EB cell walls were missing or minor in RB cell walls, and the ninth band was clearly stained by PAS. Band 8 was also stained slightly. Purified subunits, which occur as a lattice structure on the inside layer of EB cell walls but are largely missing in RB cell walls, contained bands 4, 6, and 8, and band 8 was PAS positive. These results indicate that significant polypeptide synthesis or reorganization in the cell walls occurs during the growth cycle.     

Alterations in Biomphalaria glabrata plasma induced by infection with the digenetic trematode Echinostoma paraensei

Alterations in the noncellular hemolymph components of M line Biomphalaria glabrata snails infected with the trematode Echinostoma paraensei for 1, 2, 4, 8, 15, 30, or 60 days were monitored by direct microscopical examination, and by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) in conjunction with quantitative densitometry. A prominent particulate substance was first noted in the hemolymph of infected snails at 1 day postexposure (PE), persisted through day 15, and subsided by day 30. This substance, which was not observed in control snails, contained 2 major polypeptides of 190-200 and 80-120 kDa. Infection with E. paraensei also induced substantial changes in soluble hemolymph polypeptides. PAGE lanes loaded with plasma samples from M line snails infected for 4, 8, 15, and 30 days exhibited a generalized increase in staining intensity relative to controls. A diffuse band centered at approximately 100 kDa, but of variable width, was selectively enriched relative to control preparations in snails with 4-, 8-, 15-, and 30-day-old infections. Standard protein assays also indicated an increase in total protein content of plasma samples from snails infected for 2-60 days, with significant increases noted at 4, 8, and 30 days. Infected snails of the 10-R2 strain of B. glabrata also contained particulate material in their hemolymph. However, soluble hemolymph components of 10-R2 snails exhibited relatively little change, or declined, as a result of infection. For either strain, no new bands could be detected in plasma samples from infected snails, nor were any bands consistently deleted as a result of infection. Although both snail strains exhibit alterations in hemolymph components as a result of infection, their responses differ qualitatively and quantitatively.     

Expression of biologically active human pre-procorticotropin releasing hormone in E. coli: characterization and purification

1. Human pre-procorticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) was expressed in E. coli strain TG2 as a fusion protein with beta-galactosidase. 2. A 140 kDa band which corresponded to beta-galactosidase pre-proCRH fusion protein was identified in lysates of TG2 cells harbouring the recombinant plasmid pre-proCRH (10-196) [ph PPC (10-196)] after sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Coomassie Blue staining. The identity of the fusion protein was confirmed by Western blotting and a two-site immunoradiometric assay. 3. Purification of the fusion protein from isolated, washed and solubilized inclusion bodies was achieved by ion-exchange chromatography in the presence of 8 M urea. 4. When comparing the adrenocorticotropin-releasing activity on a molar basis, the potency of the chimeric CRH precursor was 4% of that of synthetic r/h CRH (1-41).     

The impact of experimental instruction on changes in EEG power during verbal creative thinking in men and women

Features of EEG pattern during verbal creative thinking depending on experimental instruction were studied in men and women. Spectral power density was analyzed in six frequency bands (4-30 Hz). Performance of a creative task produced an increase in the power of theta (4-6 Hz) and beta2 (20-40 Hz) components and decrease in the power of alpha (8-13 Hz) and betal (13-20 Hz). Changes in the alpha and betal bands were observed, predominantly, in the posterior areas, whereas power of the thetal and beta2 bands increased in the anterior areas. Independently of instruction, women demonstrated greater synchronization in the theta1 band than men, whereas in men the desynchronization in the alpha2 band (10-13 Hz) was more pronounced. When the subjects were instructed to create original sentences, a widespread decrease in the EEG power was observed in the band of 8-30 Hz as compared to instruction "to create sentences". Thus, the instruction-related changes in EEG power were not gender-specific. They may reflect neural activity mediating selective attention.
