油菜素内酯促进绿豆上胚轴伸长与蛋白质和核酸合成的关系

用饲喂蛋白质和核酸合成的放射性前体［３ Ｈ］－Ｐｈｅ、［３ Ｈ］－尿嘧啶和［３ Ｈ］－胸腺嘧啶证实了油菜素内酯（ＢＲ）能促进绿豆上胚轴的生长和蛋白质、ＲＮＡ 及ＤＮＡ 的合成。用蛋白质和核酸合成抑制剂（ＣＨ、Ａｃｔ．Ｄ、５－Ｆｕ）进一步探讨它们对上胚轴伸长的抑制作用与蛋白质、ＲＮＡ、ＤＮＡ 和ｍ ＲＮＡ 合成之间的关系。证明了上胚轴的伸长依赖于蛋白质和核酸的合成,尤其是依赖于ｍ ＲＮＡ 的合成。说明ＢＲ是在转录水平上调节基因的表达,进而促进上胚轴的伸长     

Selection of antibiotic-resistant mutants with enhanced isoamylase activity in Pseudomonas amyloderamosa

Summary Isoamylase-hyperproducing strains of Pseudomonas amyloderamosa were bred by mutagenesis with UV light and N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (NTG). The selection criterion for such strains was based on the formation of large turbid zones around the bacterial colonies in agar medium containing antibiotics and 1% waxy corn starch. Mutant WN6410 was obtained by treating P. amyloderamosa JD210 with five cycles of 1 × 10⁴ J UV light and one cycle of NTG. P. amyloderamosa WN6410 had 22-fold increase in isoamylase activity when compared to wild-type strain SB15 and the maximal enzyme activity, 5,100 U/ml, could be achieved within 48 h in 2.5 L fed-batch fermentation.     

腺苷转运体亲和层析分离

本文合成了一种腺苷亲和层析凝胶,并采用亲和层析法从牛脑细胞膜上分离出了几种膜上结合的腺苷结合蛋白质。这些蛋白质在ＳＤＳ－ＰＡＧＥ电泳凝胶上为单一或主要的蛋白带,分子量分别为６４ｋｄ,４５ｋｄ,３５ｋｄ。腺苷转运体抑制剂潘生丁和ＮＢＭＰＲ对６４ｋｄ蛋白与＾３ｈ－腺苷的结合抑制作用远强于腺苷受体的激动剂ＮＥＣＡ和Ｒ－ＰＩＡ;这表明６４ｋｄ蛋白为牛脑细胞膜上结合的腺苷转运体。     

不同钾水平对钾饥饿墨兰碳水化合物和蛋白质含量的影响

墨兰（Ｃｙｍｂｉｄｉｕｍｓｉｎｅｎｓｅ（Ａｎｄｒ．）Ｗｉｌｌｄ）植株经过钾饥饿后,无上栽培于不同钾浓度的培养液中．随着钾浓度的升高（５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）,体内可溶性糖、淀粉、纤维素和蛋白质含量比对照分别增加１２５、１１７、１２７和４１％,而还原糖和游离氨基酸含量则比对照分别下降４４％和２４％．假球茎是贮藏还原糖、可溶性糖、淀粉、游离氨基酸和蛋白质的主要器官,叶片是纤维素最多的器官．钾供应充足时,叶片丙酮酸激酶活性明显加强（比对照强１５倍）,而硝酸还原酶活性也加强（比对照强０．８倍）．本文对钾促进墨兰生长发育和抗病等原因加以讨论．并初步提出诊断墨兰体内钾状况的三种生理指标．     

降血脂药物（DEHP）对酰基CoA氧化酶基因反式作用因子的影响

从对照和用ＤＥＨＰ处理的大鼠肝脏提取核蛋白,以含酰基ＣｏＡ氧化酶（ＡＯＸ）基因表达调控部位的ＤＮＡ片段和该基因的不同蛋白结合位点的ＤＮＡ片段作为核蛋白结合反应的探针,通过凝胶电泳迁移率改变实验和Ｓｏｕｔｈｗｅｓｔｅｒｎ印迹分析检查了ＤＥＨＰ对ＡＯＸ基因反式作用因子的影响。结果表明,降血脂药物ＤＥＨＰ可显著增加ＡＯＸ基因反式作用因子的含量和（或）与基因的结合活性,在转录水平上促进基因的表达。     

Purification and characterization of bovine brain calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. The significance of autophosphorylation in the regulation of 63 kDa calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase isozyme

Bovine brain contains two calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase kinases which are separated on Sephacryl S-300 column. One of these kinases has been purified to homogeneity and shown to belong to the calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II family. Phosphorylation of the 63 kDa phosphodiesterase by this purified protein kinase results in the incorporation of 1.0 mol phosphate per mol subunit and an accompanying increase in Ca²⁺ concentrations required for the phosphodiesterase activation by calmodulin. The protein kinase undergoes autophosphorylation to incorporate 1.0 mol phosphate per mol of subunit of the enzyme and the autophosphorylated enzyme is active, independent of the presence of Ca²⁺. The autophosphorylation reaction as well as the protein kinase reaction are rendered Ca²⁺ independent in less than 15 seconds when approximately one mol phosphate per mol protein kinase is incorporated. The result suggests that activation of phosphodiesterase phosphorylation reaction may occur prior to the activation of phosphodiesterase and phosphatase during a cell Ca²⁺ flux via the protein kinase autophosphorylation mechanism.Abbreviations SDS sodium dodecyl sulfate - EGTA ethylene glycol bis (-aminoethyl ether) - N,N,N,N tetra acetic acid - EDTA ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid - cAMP cyclic adenosine 35 monophosphate This work is supported by grants from the Medical Research Council of Canada (JHW), the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Alberta (JHW and RKS) and the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Saskatchewan (RKS)
