我国部分鸡源H9N2亚型流感病毒NSl基因序列分析

对1996年至2001年间自我国部分养鸡场发病鸡或死亡鸡分离鉴定的8株H9N2亚型禽流感病毒的非结构蛋白基因(NSl)进行了扩增和序列测定,并分析和比较了其核苷酸和氨基酸的同源性。结果表明：NSI基因核苷酸和氨基酸同源性分别为96．5％-99．5％和94.5-98．6％,说明NSl基因在遗传进化上高度保守,稳定遗传。与中国香港、韩国、巴基斯坦及人源H9N2分离株相比较,发现中国大陆的鸡源H9N2分离株的NSl基因在其羧基端缺少13个氨基酸。系统进化树分析表明,该8株病毒的NSl基因属于相同的进化分支,而且中国的早年分离株A／chicken／Beijing/1／94位于该进化分支的根部,暗示这些分离株的NSl基因是由A/chicken／Beijing/1／94演化而来;尚未发现NSl基因属于A/quail／HongKong／G1／97-1ike分支的分离株。同时,系统进化树也说明了我国的H9N2分离株与韩国、巴基斯坦等地的H9N2分离株隶属于不同的进化分支,H9N2亚型禽流感的发生和流行与地域有一定的相关性。     

鸡源H9N2亚型流行性感冒病毒神经氨酸酶基因序列分析

对1996～2001年间自中国部分养鸡场发病鸡或死亡鸡分离鉴定的8株H9N2亚型禽流感病毒的神经氨酸酶基因(NA),进行了扩增和序列测定,并分析和比较了其核苷酸和氨基酸的同源性.结果表明,NA基因核苷酸和氨基酸同源性分别为97.1%～99.8%和95.7%～99.7%,说明NA基因稳定遗传,高度保守.与A/chicken/HongKong/G9/97相比较,发现中国大陆鸡源H9N2分离株的神经氨酸酶蛋白在其茎部的第63、64、65位点上都有3个氨基酸的丢失,而与中国邻近的韩国、巴基斯坦鸡源H9N2分离株的神经氨酸酶没有氨基酸的丢失,因此这些部位的氨基酸丢失可初步认为是中国大陆H9N2流感病毒分离株的一个标记.系统进化树分析表明,该8株病毒的NA基因属于相同的进化分支,即A/duck/HongKong/Y280/97-like分支,尚未发现NA基因属于A/quail/HongKong/G1/97-like分支的分离株.中国的H9N2分离株与韩国、巴基斯坦等地的H9N2分离株隶属于不同的进化亚分支,说明H9N2亚型禽流感的发生与流行和地域有一定的相关性.

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.

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.
