CWH41 encodes a novel endoplasmic reticulum membrane N-glycoprotein involved in beta 1,6-glucan assembly.

CWH41 encodes a novel type II integral membrane N-glycoprotein located in the endoplasmic reticulum. Disruption of the CWH41 gene leads to a K1 killer toxin-resistant phenotype and a 50% reduction in the cell wall beta 1,6-glucan level. CWH41 also displays strong genetic interactions with KRE1 and KRE6, two genes known to be involved in the beta 1,6-glucan biosynthetic pathway. The cwh41 delta kre6 delta double mutant is nonviable; and the cwh41 delta kre1 delta double mutation results in strong synergistic defects, with a severely slow-growth phenotype, a 75% reduction in beta 1,6-glucan level, and the secretion of a cell wall glucomannoprotein, Cwp1p. These results provide strong genetic evidence indicating that Cwh41p plays a functional role, possibly as a new synthetic component, in the assembly of cell wall beta 1,6-glucan.     

黄皮种子发育过程中脱水敏感性与细胞膜透性的关系

黄皮（Ｃｌａｕｓｅｎａ ｌａｎｓｉｕｍ （Ｌｏｕｒ．） Ｓｋｅｅｌｓ）胚轴与完整种子的发育模式以及发育中电解质渗漏率变化有些不同． 种子生理成熟前、后的胚轴对脱水的反应也不同,前者经轻微脱水可提高萌发率和活力指数,后者不耐任何程度的脱水．活力指数的急剧下降伴随着电解质渗漏率的迅速上升．实验表明,黄皮种子在发育过程中没有形成耐脱水性． 细胞膜透性变化可反映脱水对种子的伤害程度

Assays for the effects of volatile compounds from artificially damaged cotyledons of subterranean clover on the redlegged earth mite, Halotydeus destructor

The effects on the redlegged earth mite (Halotydeus destructor) (Acarina: Penthaleidae) of volatile compounds released from artificially damaged cotyledons of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.), a host plant, were investigated with different assays. Mites were repelled by the volatile compounds in flask tube and in trimmed cotyledon disc tests. No differences could be shown between different tissue amounts and between resistant and susceptible varieties. When a membrane sachet was used containing either 2-(E)-hexenal, a compound produced by damaged subclover cotyledons, or the total volatile compounds collected from damaged cotyledons of Dalkeith (susceptible) admixed with 1% glucose, mites gathered to low but were deterred by high concentrations of the compounds. Volatile compounds collected from the resistant variety DGI007 were more deterrent than those from the susceptible Dalkeith. Membrane sachets containing 30 p.p.m. of 2-(E)-hexenal and 1% glucose were less preferred than cotyledons of Dalkeith (susceptible) but were not different from DGI007 (resistant). By increasing the glucose concentration to 5%, the membrane sachets with 30 p.p.m. of 2-(E)-hexenal were preferred to cotyledons of either variety. The results indicate that the membrane feeding technique provides a sensitive way of assaying volatile compounds from damaged subclover cotyledons against the mite.     

A laboratory-based method to measure relative pesticide and spray oil efficacy against broad mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks)(Acari: Tarsonemidae)

Six pesticides and two spray oils were tested against Polyphagotarsonemus latus. The chemicals were evaluated under laboratory conditions, requiring the development of a novel bioassay method, which is reported here. The pesticide toxicities fell into three distinct groups, namely abamectin, conventional pesticides and oils. The relative pesticide toxicities at the LC₅₀ level were abamectin 4.9×10^-8 g ai l^-1, endosulfan 1.1×10^-3 g ai l^-1, fenpyroximate 2.3×10^-3 g ai l^-1, pyridaben 4.1×10^-3 g ai l^-1, tebufenpyrad 4.4×10^-3 g ai l^-1, dicofol 4.5×10^-3 g ai l^-1, petroleum spray oil 3.4×10^-1 g ai l^-1 and canola oil 4.1×10^-1 g ai l^-1. The calculation of the LC_99.9 values allows for resistance monitoring in P. latus and the suggested discriminating concentrations are abamectin 1.0×10^-4 g ai l^-1; endosulfan, pyridaben and dicofol 1.0×10^-1 g ai l^-1 fenpyroximate and tebufenpyrad 5.0×10^-1 g ai l^-1.

DNA polymerase epsilon may be dispensable for SV40- but not cellular-DNA replication.

The contributions of DNA polymerases alpha, delta, and epsilon to SV40 and nuclear DNA syntheses were evaluated. Proteins were UV-crosslinked to nascent DNA within replicating chromosomes and the photolabelled polymerases were immunopurified. Only DNA polymerases alpha and delta were detectably photolabelled by nascent SV40 DNA, whether synthesized in soluble viral chromatin or within nuclei isolated from SV40-infected cells. In contrast, all three enzymes were photolabelled by the nascent cellular DNA. Mitogenic stimulation enhanced the photolabelling of the polymerases in the alpha>delta>epsilon order of preference. The data agree with the notion that DNA polymerases alpha and delta catalyse the principal DNA polymerisation reactions at the replication fork of SV40 and, perhaps, also of nuclear chromosomes. DNA polymerase epsilon, implicated by others as a cell-cycle checkpoint regulator sensing DNA replication lesions, may be dispensable for replication of the small, fast propagating virus that subverts cell cycle controls.
