ABSTRACT. Cold seeps are areas of the seafloor where hydrogen sulfide- and methane-rich fluid seepage occurs, often sustaining chemosynthetic ecosystems. It is well known that both archaea and bacteria oxidize sulfides and methane to produce chemical energy and that several endemic animals use this energy to thrive in cold seeps. On the other hand, there is little knowledge regarding diversity and ecology of microbial eukaryotes in this ecosystem. In this study we isolated environmental RNA and DNA from microbial mats of cold-seep sediment in Sagami Bay, Japan, and retrieved eukaryotic small-subunit ribosomal RNA sequences with polymerase chain reaction methods followed by clone library construction. Most RNA-derived clones obtained were from ciliates, although DNA-derived clones were mainly from the fungus Cryptococcus curvatus , suggesting that ciliates are active in the environment. The ciliate sequences were phylogenetically diverse, and represented eight known class lineages as well as undesignated lineages. Because most ciliates are bacterivorous, it is highly likely that the ciliates for which sequences were recovered play a role in the food web of this ecosystem as grazers of microbial mats. In addition, given that the environment studied is under highly reduced (anoxic) conditions, based on the prokaryotic community structure deduced from T-RFLP profiles, the ciliates detected may be obligatory or facultative anaerobes. 相似文献

Effect of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) sexual hormones on the elongation of etiolated Avena coleoptile segments was studied. The elongation was promoted by a hormone excreted by cells of mating type a, but not by α hormone excreted by cells of α type. The effect of the former was as great as that of 5 mg/1 indole-3-acetic acid in the first hour of application. The optimal concentration of a hormone was 10 units/ml. Its growth promoting effect was greatly inhibited by an antiauxin, 2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid. a Hormone increased cell wall extensibility just as auxin does. Testosterone, β-estradiol, progesterone and ergosterol showed very little effect on the elongation of coleoptile segments. 相似文献

Properties of the cell-free extract, prepared from a strainof Thiobacillus thiooxidans by sonic disruption followed byfractionation with centrifugatiori, were investigated with referenceto its sulfite-oxidizing activity. Without the addition of cofactors the particulate fraction(F-P)catalyzed oxidation of sulfite with oxygen or bacterial cytochromec-552 obtained from Pseudomonas stutzeri as electron acceptor.TMPD reduced by ascorbic acid was also oxidized by F-P. Thesoluble fraction(F-S) showed no activity in oxidizing sulfiteand TMPD, but stimulated TMPD oxidation by F-P. Oxygen uptake with either sulfite or TMPD as substrate was inhibitedby KCN, NaN3, CO and c-phenanthroline. CO-Inhibition was reversedby light. Reduction of cytochrome c-552 by sulfite was insensitiveto these agents. Antimycin A markedly inhibited sulfite oxidation with eitheroxygen or cytochrome c-552 as electron acceptor, but was withouteffect on TMPD oxidation. DDC and SAO, both strong inhibitors of sulfur oxidation, didnot affect sulfite and TMPD oxidations. Cytochromes of the a, b and c types were contained in F-P. Thesecytochromes were rapidly reduced when F-P was incubated withsulfite. Cytochrome(s) of the c type was present in F-S, too.

Abstract. The mechanism involved in a bimodal germination-temperature response in pre-soaked cocklebur (Xanthium pennsylvanicum Wallr.) seeds was studied with special reference to adenylate metabolism. Exposure to either low (optimal at 8°C) or high (optimal at 34°C) temperature which was effective in inducing the germination of the seeds brought about the accumulation of ATP in them. The ATP level remained unchanged at temperatures around 23°C. Pretreatment with KCN, stimulating germination even at 23°C, subsequently increased the ATP content, total adenylate pool and energy charge (EC) in the axial tissue prior to germination above those of the untreated controls. The lower the treatment temperature, the greater the inhibitory effect of KCN on ATP formation. An increase in germination following an increasing duration of pre-soaking at 8°C was comparable to increasing both the ATP content and total adenylate pool of axes, but not the EC value. Similarly, changes in germination following an increased exposure duration at 8°C correlated with changes in ATP content rather than EC value in the axes. Unlike the case of chilling, an increase in ATP level in response to 34°C was greater in the early period of water imbibition, during which times its germination-stimulating effect appeared more striking than in the later period, and it occurred without a concomitant rise in EC value because of the increased supply of AMP. Such a supply of AMP was reduced in the presence of benzohydroxamic acid or propyl gallale, inhibitors of an alternative respiratory pathway. It was thus concluded that both low temperature, coupled with warm temperature, and high temperature, by itself, can induce seed germination by increasing the ATP level as well as the total adenylate pool, but not the EC value, in the axial tissue. Further, that increases in both the ATP level and the adenylate pool especially are required for seed germination to proceed, probably depending on the activities of the cytochrome and alternative respiration pathways, respectively. 相似文献

In this study, the localization of fluorescent protein (FP) was characterized in the muscles of four species and two subspecies of eels Anguilla anguilla, A. australis, A. bicolor bicolor (b.), A. bicolor pacifica (p.) and A. mossambica in addition to the previously reported A. japonica. The open reading frame of each eel FP was 417 bp encoding 139 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequences among the four species and two subspecies exhibited 91.4–100% identity, and belonged to the fatty-acid-binding protein (FABP) family. The gene structure of eel FPs in A. japonica, A. anguilla, A. australis, A. bicolor b., A. bicolor p. and A. mossambica have four exons and three introns, and were common to that of FABP family. The apo eel FPs expressed by Escherichia coli with recombinant eel FP genes were analysed for the fluorescent properties in the presence of bilirubin. The excitation and emission spectra of holo eel FPs had the maximum wavelengths of 490–496 and 527–530 nm, respectively. The holo eel FPs indicated that the fluorescent intensities were stronger in A. japonica and A. bicolor than in A. mossambica, A. australis and A. anguilla. The comparison of amino acid sequences revealed two common substitutions in A. mossambica, A. australis and A. anguilla with weak fluorescent intensity. 相似文献

The development of a high performance liquid chromatograph forthe separation of gibberellins is described. The system combineshigh efficiency, peak capacity, and sample capacity with rapidspeed of analysis. In addition, the constructional details ofa sensitive on-stream radioactivity monitor are outlined. Theoverall versatility of the chromatograph is demonstrated bythe separation of a range of 3H- and 14C-labelled Gibberellinsand gibberellin precursors. The system also has considerablepotential for the analysis of abscisic acid and acidic and neutralindoles. 相似文献
