The fermentation process for l-phenylalanine production using an auxotrophic regulatory mutant of Escherichia coli

Summary A process for l-phenylalanine production was studied using a tyrosine auxotrophic regulatory mutant of Escherichia coli, resistant to both -2-thienyl-dl-alanine and p-fluoro-dl-phenylalanine. Fermentations were carried out in a 30-1 fermentor with intermittent feeding of glucose plus phosphate. The mutant accumulated l-phenylalanine in the fermentation broth up to 15 g/l at pH 7.0 and 33°C. Column chromatography on a strong cation exchanger was employed as the most effective step in the purification of l-phenyl-alanine from the broth. This step brought about 4-fold concentration of the product with 96% recovery.     

Pilot-scale production of l-phenylalanine from d-glucose

Effects of inoculum size and total sugar content on both l-phenylalanine productivity and titre have been investigated using a tyrosine auxotrophic regulatory mutant of Escherichia coli. Fermentations were carried out in a 500 litre pilot fermenter with intermittent feeding of d-glucose plus phosphate. It was found that the productivity was not greatly affected by inoculum size. However, the l-phenylalanine titre was significantly affected by total sugar content. Relatively high productivities of up to 0.35–0.40 g l-phenylalanine l^?1 h^?1 have been achieved at l-phenylalanine titres of 14–15 g l^?1.     

甜菊不同叶龄细胞结构及其甜菊糖甙含量分布的研究

本文报道甜菊(Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni)不同叶龄细胞结构与甜菊糖苷含量分布。应用电镜技术观察表明,现蕾期成叶细胞内具有内含物丰富的巨大液泡,这些内含物呈大小不一的颗粒或小泡。应用差速离心法,对甜菊成叶的叶肉细胞进行亚细胞分离,并对各部分进行甜菊糖苷的提取与微量测定。结果表明,甜菊糖苷主要存在于12000g的上清液(这部分主要包括液泡内含物和可溶性细胞质)。结合细胞结构和细胞化学研究结果,表明细胞质是合成UDPG的主要场所,在甜菊糖苷合成中具有重要作用。对不同叶龄叶片甜菊糖苷测定表明,现蕾期成叶的甜菊糖苷含量最高。从甜菊不同叶龄细胞结构和甜菊糖苷含量测定结果,现蕾期是甜菊叶片收割的最适时期。     

油松茎次生结构中树脂道的结构分布和发育的研究

油松茎的次生结构中树脂道存在于次生维管组织中。其中,次生木质部内具有水平的和垂直的两类树脂道,而次生韧皮部内则仅有水平的树脂道。两类树脂道都由上皮细胞和鞘细胞包围着胞间道构成,其中木质部内的树脂道具有死鞘细胞,而韧皮部中的则都系生活细胞。在心材中,垂直树脂道形成拟侵填体。在次生木质部内,垂直树脂道常分布于早材的外部区域和最初形成的晚材中,它们与水平树脂道连接,腔道贯通,从而形成二维网状结构。垂直树脂道来源于纺锤状原始细胞的衍生细胞,而水平树脂道来源于射线原始细胞,两者都以裂生方式发生。     

赤霉素产生菌~#85104菌株原生质体的形成再生和紫外光对原生质体诱变条件的研究

赤霉产生菌在正常条件下不产生孢子,育种材料以多核菌丝体及其碎片为主,大部分常用的诱变剂对它们诱变效应较差。本文报导有关赤霉素产生菌~#85104菌株原生质体的获得、再生和紫外光诱变原生质体的条件,甘氨酸对菌丝体生长的影响,以及采用二硫苏糖醇预处理菌丝体等方面条件的研究。在采用紫外光照射原生质体的诱变处理下,已获得数株高产的新菌株。     

腺苷酸激酶在我国九个民族中的多态分布

用淀粉胶电泳及特异染色的方法,对我国9个民族的腺苷酸激酶(AK)多态分布进行了测定。9个民族中维吾尔族AK表型分布具有多态性。维吾尔族中AK_1~1基因频率为0.965,AK_1~2基因频率为0.035,而侗、回、白、土家、苗、彝、藏、满等8个民族的AK_1~2均未达到多态水平。在9个民族中AK_1表型分布均符合Hardy-Weinberg平衡,并且未发现其它罕见表型。     

Modification of 144Ce tissue deposition by mixed ligand complex treatment in mice

The individual effect of desferrioxamine-B (DFOA), Na3Ca-diethylene-triaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), DL-penicillamine (PA) and Na-salicylate (SA) has been examined as well as the effect of mixed-ligand treatment on the retention and elimination of 144Ce in mice. It was found that 144Ce could easily be mobilized by a single dose of DTPA. Mixed-ligand (MLCs) treatment did not change the deposition characteristics and translocation kinetics of 144Ce.     

Number of hits necessary for complement-mediated hemolysis

The number of hits necessary for the C8 and C9 steps of immune hemolysis was reexamined with a previously unemployed experimental design, in which various numbers of EAC1-7, excess of the supplementary component and a constant amount of the component tested were incubated in a constant volume (Inoue et al. 1976. Infect. Immun. 13: 337). Our results were consistent with previous findings; the steps of guinea pig C8 and C9, the human C8 each followed a one-hit mechanism, while that of human C9 showed ka multi-hit response. When lysis of sensitized erythrocytes (EA) by normal human serum was analysed in a similar way, one-hit curves were obtained. This result, taken together with the above results, suggests that immune hemolysis occurs by a single lesion including a single C8 and multiple C9 in the case of human complement and that normal human serum contains sufficient excess of C9. On the other hand, when C9-deficient human serum was used for lysis of EA, multiple-hit curves were obtained. The mechanism of lysis by C5b-8 may differ from that by C5b-9.     

农田小麦在土壤湿润条件下的气孔活动

1984年在北京大屯农业生态系统试验站用MK 3型自动气孔计对土壤湿润、睛朗天气条件下冬小麦气孔传导力的日变化,季节变化、以及叶龄和梯度变化进行了观测。发现叶片传导力(gl)的日变化为双峰曲线,正午gl的降低可能是强光和高的饱和差作用的结果,从而限制了光合潜力的发挥。近轴面传导力(gd)和远轴面传导力(gb)的比(α)不是一个常数,这是因为两面气孔对环境条件的反应不同。gl和冠层传导力(g(?))都以孕穗期为最高。灌浆时期gl和gc有所降低,反映了叶片的过早衰老。这是影响本地区小麦产量的重要因素之一,其原因不仅与土壤水分有关,还与大气条件和病虫害有关。本文还讨论了gl随时龄的变化。观测表明,气孔计可以迅速准确地掌握作物群体的生理动态,有可能用于指导农田灌灌和管理。
