子宫异常出血与细菌L型感染的关系

通常认为,子宫异常出血由内分泌紊乱、内膜肿瘤和子宫内膜炎引起。通过对471例子宫异常出血内膜组织的细菌学及免疫组化等研究,我们发现绝大多数(85.7％)出血者原因不明,其中376例子宫内膜查见L型菌。本组细菌L型感染率为93.8％。提示子宫异常出血(包括绝经后出血)与细菌L型感染关系也很密切。并认为,子宫内膜细菌L型感染是导致子宫异常出血的重要原因之一。选择作用于细菌胞膜的药物治疗细菌L型感染效果最好。     

慢性扁桃体炎与细菌L型感染

通常认为,慢性扁桃体炎主要致病菌是金黄色葡萄球菌和乙型溶血性链球菌。通过50例慢性扁桃体炎的病原微生物培养、组织切片细菌学及电镜等研究,发现慢性扁桃体炎组织中细菌L型也相当常见,L型培养阳性率是88.5％,且组织切片L型感染率与培养阳性率基本一致(P>0.05)。电镜在扁桃体组织间质及上皮细胞、淋巴细胞等多种细胞内均见到细菌L型。提示慢性扁桃体炎与细菌L型感染关系极为密切。并认为,L型侵入组织并在宿主细胞内生长的特性,可能是慢性扁桃体炎反复发作、迁延不愈的重要原因。     

污染细菌对红霉素发酵的影响

木文考查了两种常见污染细菌对红霉素发酵的影响。发现枯草芽孢杆菌污染后迅速引起总糖和还原糖的大量消耗,且在早期就已完全抑制了红霉素的生成;另一种微球菌虽也使发酵过程中的糖耗明显增加,但对红霉素的影响较小,红霉素的合成一直持续到发酵终了。     

Relation of transition probabilities in the Leslie model to those from experimental cumulative distributions

We explore the relationship between transition probabilities in the Leslie model and those derived from experimental cumulative distributions. The nature of the two kinds of probabilities are discussed, and a formula derived for converting from one to the other. A numerical example is given to illustrate the differences.     

Cloning and sequence analysis of the muramidase-2 gene from Enterococcus hirae.

Extracellular muramidase-2 of Enterococcus hirae ATCC 9790 was purified to homogeneity by substrate binding, guanidine-HCl extraction, and reversed-phase chromatography. A monoclonal antibody, 2F8, which specifically recognizes muramidase-2, was used to screen a genomic library of E. hirae ATCC 9790 DNA in bacteriophage lambda gt11. A positive phage clone containing a 4.5-kb DNA insert was isolated and analyzed. The EcoRI-digested 4.5-kb fragment was cut into 2.3-, 1.0-, and 1.5-kb pieces by using restriction enzymes KpnI, Sau3AI, and PstI, and each fragment was subcloned into plasmid pJDC9 or pUC19. The nucleotide sequence of each subclone was determined. The sequence data indicated an open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 666 amino acid residues, with a calculated molecular mass of 70,678 Da. The first 24 N-terminal amino acids of purified extracellular muramidase-2 were in very good agreement with the deduced amino acid sequence after a 49-amino-acid putative signal sequence. Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence showed the presence at the C-terminal region of the protein of six highly homologous repeat units separated by nonhomologous intervening sequences that are highly enriched in serine and threonine. The overall sequence showed a high degree of homology with a recently cloned Streptococcus faecalis autolysin.     

Structural analysis of the O-antigen side chain polysaccharides in the lipopolysaccharides of Klebsiella serotypes O2(2a), O2(2a,2b), and O2(2a,2c).

The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Klebsiella serotype O2 is antigenically heterogeneous; some strains express multiple antigenic factors. To study this heterogeneity, we determined the structure of the O-antigen polysaccharides in isolates belonging to serotypes O2(2a), O2(2a,2b), and O2(2a,2c), by using composition analysis, methylation analysis, and both 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The repeating unit structure of the 2a polysaccharide was identified as the disaccharide [----3)-beta-D-Galf-(1----3)-alpha-D-Galp-(1----] and was identical to D-galactan I, one of two O polysaccharides present in the LPS of Klebsiella pneumoniae serotype O1 (C. Whitfield, J. C. Richards, M. B. Perry, B. R. Clarke, and L. L. MacLean, J. Bacteriol. 173:1420-1431, 1991). LPS from serotype O2(2a,2b) also contained D-galactan I as the only O polysaccharide, suggesting that the 2b antigen is not an O antigen. The LPS of serotype O2(2a,2c) contained a mixture of two structurally distinct O polysaccharides and provides a second example of this phenomenon in Klebsiella spp. One polymer was identical to D-galactan I, and the other polysaccharide, the 2c antigen, was a polymer with a disaccharide repeating unit structure, [----3)-beta-D-GlcpNAc-(1----5)-beta-D-Galf-(1----]. The 2c structure does not resemble previously reported O polysaccharides from Klebsiella spp. Periodate oxidation confirmed that D-galactan I and the 2c polysaccharide are distinct glycans, rather than representing domains within a single polysaccharide chain. Monoclonal antibodies against the 2c antigen indicated that only LPS molecules with the longest O-polysaccharide chains contained the 2c epitope.
