Characterization of B and H blood-group active glycosphingolipids from human B erythrocyte membranes

Two blood group B active glycosphingolipids (B-I and B-II) previously isolated and highly purified from human B erythrocytes [21] were analysed first by degradation with α-D-galactosidase from coffee beans, α-L-fucosidase from bovine kidney and with 0,1 N trichloracetic acid; the native B-glycolipids as well as their degradation products were then investigated by methylation analysis with combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, by thin layer chromatography, twodimensional immunodiffusion and by the hemagglutination inhibition technique. Together with the results obtained by mass spectrometry of permethylated glycolipids [26] the following structures were elucidated: α-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[α-L-fucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)]-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminosyl-(1 → 3)-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 1)-ceramide for the B-I glycosphingolipid and α-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[α-L-fucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)]-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminosyl-(1 → 3)-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminosyl-(1 → 3)-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 1)-ceramide for the B-II glycosphingolipid. A H active glycolipid fraction from B erythrocytes further purified by thin layer chromatography was also investigated by methylation analysis. The pattern of its partially methylated alditol acetates was essentially the same as that of the α-galactosidase treated and permethylated B-I glycolipid. It also exhibited strongly precipitating and hemagglutination inhibiting H properties as well as the two α-galactosidase treated B-I and B-II glycosphingolipids. Based upon these data the following tentative structure was proposed: α-L-fucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminosyl-(1 → 3)-D-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 1)-ceramide. Gas chromatographic analysis revealed sphingosine and lignoceric, nervonic and behenic acids to be the main components of the ceramide residues of the three glycosphingolipids. From the data presented the H active substance very probably can be regarded as the immediate precursor of the B-I glycosphingolipid from human B erythrocyte membranes.

Serum protein polymorphisms (HP,GC, PI) in Muslims and Bodhs of Jammu and Kashmir,India

Two population groups of Jammu and Kashmir (India) — Muslims and Bodhs-have been typed for haptoglobin and for CG and PI subtype polymorphisms. The allele frequencies do not show significant differences between these two populations. HP and GC allele frequencies of Bodhs and Muslims differ considerably from with that observed in other North Indian populations. The PI allele frequencies of Bohds and Muslims differ considerably from those found in other Indian populations and are more similar to Mongoloid ones.

内源植物激素与光敏核不育水稻农垦58S育性的关系

采用气相色谱－质谱联用选择离子检测（ＧＣ－ＭＳ－ＳＩＭ）技术,定性、定量分析了光敏核不育水稻农垦５８Ｓ（Ｏｒｙｚａ ｓａｔｉｖａ Ｌ． ｓｕｂｓｐ． ｊａｐｏｎｉｃａ）及对照品种“农垦５８”在长（ＬＤ）、短（ＳＤ）日照处理下,不同发育时期顶端全展叶片中内源ＩＡＡ、ＡＢＡ 和生殖器官中内源ＩＡＡ、ＡＢＡ、ＧＡ１、ＧＡ４ 的含量变化。实验结果表明：在ＬＤ 处理下,农垦５８Ｓ雌雄蕊形成期的叶片和花粉母细胞形成期的幼穗中ＩＡＡ 相继发生亏缺;农垦５８Ｓ－ＬＤ花粉母细胞形成期、单核期和扬花期,生殖器官中内源ＡＢＡ 均低于农垦５８Ｓ－ＳＤ 的含量,“农垦５８”则与此相反;扬花期不育花药中内源ＧＡ１ 和ＧＡ４ 含量剧减。据此认为：生殖器官中早期ＩＡＡ 的亏损、ＡＢＡ 含量剧减伴随着抗逆性能的减弱及ＧＡＳ的不足共同导致了农垦５８Ｓ的雄性败育     

Benzoylcellulose derivatives as chiral stationary phases for open tubular column chromatography

The application of cellulose-based stationary phases for chiral separations has been extended to open tubular column chromatography. Efficient columns were obtained by coating the capillaries with mixtures of chiral cellulose materials and conventional achiral stationary phases for gas chromatography. In this study, various siloxane and polyethylene glycol polymers were used as achiral components and mixed with different substituted benzoylcellulose derivatives as chiral components. Systematic investigations were carried out to determine the optimal ratio for the components of the stationary phase. Depending on the chromatographic mode—gas chromatography (GC) or supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC)—the stationary phases were found to behave differently. The applicability of the technique was demonstrated by the resolution of various racemic compounds. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
