通过对９名男性受试者在分别完成１００－２００ｍ,４００－８００ｍ和１ ５００－３ ０００ｍ跑步间歇训练后尿蛋白分子量和等电点的测定发现：①运动时尿液高、低分子量蛋白质排泄率均较运动前明显增加,但以高分子量蛋白质排泄为主;②运动时尿液高、低分子量蛋白质排泄率均以４００－８００ｍ间歇训练时最高,１００－２００ｍ间歇训练时次之,１ ５００－３ ０００ｍ间歇训练时最低;③运动时尿液排出的蛋白质以负离子为主     

红铃虫性诱剂开口纤维剂型及其在棉田中的竞争引诱作用

Hummel等1973年鉴定了红铃虫的性外激素是顺,顺-和顺,反-7,11-十六碳二烯-1-醇醋酸酯的复合物,并命名为“红铃虫性诱剂”(简称“Gossyplure”)。Biel等1974年用触角电图和大田诱捕试验,证明当两种异构体的配比为1∶1时效果最好。为延长性诱剂在大田中的有效期,研究工作者曾设计了多种释放器和可控缓释剂型。Shorey等1976年用铝圆筒包上尼龙纱作为释放器,红铃虫性诱剂的释放量为每晚5毫克/公顷,全年用量为9克/公顷。Gaston等1977年用内径0.22毫米、外径0.45毫米、长104毫米,一端开口一端封闭的塑料空心纤维,绕成直径22毫米的环作释放器,每次用量6.6克/公顷,全年用33克/公顷。Boncss等1977和1978年用聚乙烯盖作释放器,每次用量5克/公顷,胶囊剂     

Presence of nadph-cytochrome P-450 reductase in rat liver golgi membranes: Evidence obtained by immunoadsorption method

Light Golgi fractions (GF(1+2)) prepared from rat liver homogenates by a modification of the Ehrenreich et al. procedure (J. Cell Biol. 59:45) had significant NADPH-cytochrome P(450) reductase (NADPH-cyt c reductase) activity if assayed immediately after their isolation. An antibody raised in rabbits against purified microsomal and Golgi fractions. To find out whether this activity is located in bona fide Golgi elements or in contaminating microsomal vesicles, we used the following 3-step immunoadsorption procedure: (a) antirabbit IgG (raised in goats) was conjugated to small (2-5 μm) polycrylamide (PA) beads; (b) rabbit anti NADPH-cyt c reductase was immunoadsorbed to the antibody-coated beads; and (c) GF(1+2) was reacted with the beads carrying the two successive layers of antibodies. The beads were then recovered by centrifugation, and were washed, fixed, embedded in agarose, and processed for transmission electromicroscopy. Antireductase- coated beads absorbed 60 percent of the NADPH-cyt c reductase (and comparable fractions of NADH-cyt c reductase and glucose-6-phosphatase) but only 20 percent of the galactosyltransferase activity of the input GF(1+2). Differential vesicle counts showed that approximately 72 percent of the immunoadsorbed vesicles were morphologically recognizable Golgi elements (vesicles with very low density lipoprotein [VLDL] clusters or Golgi cisternae); vesicles with single VLDL and smooth surfaced microsome-like vesicles were too few (approximately 25 percent) to account for the activity. It is concluded that NADPH-cytochrome P(450) reductase is a Golgi membrane enzyme of probably uneven distribution among the elements of the Golgi complex.

植物蛋白质S-亚硝基化修饰的检测与分析

S-亚硝基化是一种重要的蛋白质翻译后修饰方式, 是指一氧化氮(NO)基团共价连接至靶蛋白特定半胱氨酸残基的自由巯基, 从而形成S-亚硝基硫醇(SNO)的过程。S-亚硝基化修饰广泛存在于各有机体中, 通过改变蛋白质生化活性、稳定性、亚细胞定位以及蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用等机制而调控不同的生物学过程或信号通路。在蛋白质S-亚硝基化检测分析方法中, 最为广泛使用的是生物素转化法(biotin switch assay), 其基本原理是首先封闭未被修饰的自由巯基, 进而将被修饰的SNO基团特异地还原为自由巯基并使用生物素将其特异标记。被生物素标记的半胱氨酸残基(即被修饰位点)可进一步通过蛋白质免疫印迹和/或质谱等方法进行检测分析。该文详细描述了植物蛋白质样品的体内和体外生物素转化法的实验流程, 并对实验过程中的注意事项进行了讨论。

Kininogen and Kinin in Experimental Spinal Cord Injury

Activation of the kallikrein-kinin system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of vasogenic brain edema and posttraumatic vascular injury. We determined the levels of kininogen and kinin in an experimental spinal cord injury model in the rat. Kininogen content in traumatized cord segments increased in a time-dependent manner. Western blot analysis showed that the kininogen in traumatized cord comigrates with 68K low-molecular-weight kininogen or T-kininogen. Trypsin treatment of the kininogen in traumatized cord released both bradykinin and T-kinin, which were separated by HPLC and quantified with a kinin radioimmunoassay. Endogenous kinin levels in the frozen spinal cord also increased up to 40-fold 2 h after injury as compared with controls. The results demonstrate an increased accumulation of kininogen and its conversion to vasoactive kinins in experimental spinal cord injury.

氧合血红蛋白Fe-O2键合态 ab initio 研究

本文报道用自旋非限制Hartree-Fock方法(spin unrestricted Hartree-Fock method简写UHF)对氧合血红蛋白的Fe-O₂键合态进行ab initio研究。结果表明Fe^(Ⅱ)、Oc和Or的Mulliken布居值分别为24.18、8.19和7.64。这说明氧合血红蛋白的Fe-O₂键合态不发生电子转移。研究模型所得到的频率与实验频率基本一致。研究结果不支持Weiss提出的Fe³⁺O₂^-模型,为解释血红蛋白传输氧的作用机理提供了新的理论依据。
