分子氮影响下的蓝藻Anabaena7120乙炔还原

经分子氮预处理的蓝藻乙炔还原活性下降。分子氮对乙炔还原的抑制作用可因CO_2的加入而削弱,氮浓度增高时,CO_2的此种有益作用即消失。在5％ CO_2条件下:(1)光照强度大时,经分子氮预处理的蓝藻乙炔还原活性比未经处理的(氮气中)高些,弱光下则削弱,暗中削弱更大;(2)它受到光合抑制剂的抑制较大;(3)对CO_2和O_2的敏感度比未经氮预处理者小;(4)分子氢对其支持与来经氮预处理的相差甚微,但对其受O_2损伤时的保护作用则大些;(5)MSX对分子氮预处理的蓝藻乙炔还原也有明显的抑制,且比单加CO_2的大。

人肝癌细胞表皮生长因子受体以及佛波酯对它的调度

Using radioligand binding assay, the presence of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors in cells of two human liver cancer cell lines, BEL-7402 and SMMC-7721, was demonstrated. The ligand binding data were analyzed by a computer program. The dissociation constants (KD) of the ligand-receptor binding complex at equilibrium for 7402 and 7721 cells were 1.2 nM and 0.8 nM respectively, and their number of EGF receptors per cell were 6.2 x 10(4) and 2.5 x 10(4) respectively. After the treatment of cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), no change either in the affinity or in the number of EGF receptors was found in 7721 cells. However, in the case of 7402 cells, while the number of receptors, like 7721 cells, remained unchanged, the affinity of EGF receptors displayed a time dependent modulation after PMA treatment. It dropped within the first hour to a KD value of 3.0 nM and then gradually returned to the normal control value at 48 hours or even slightly higher than normal (0.95 nM) at 96 hours of treatment. The modulation or down-regulation of EGF receptors by PMA in 7402 cells was paralleled by the simultaneous inhibition of DNA synthesis in these cells as evidenced from their reduction of 3H-TdR uptake. It is not clear what is the basis for the differences found between 7402 cells and 7721 cells in their number of EGF receptors per cell and their responsiveness to PMA treatment. It might be related to their difference in autocrine secretion of alpha-transforming growth factors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

菜粉蝶幼虫S型生长曲线及其拐点的初步研究

菜粉蝶Artogeia rapae(L.)是十字花科蔬菜最重要的害虫之一。国内关于该虫的研究颇多。僵至今尚未见报道其幼虫生长曲线和拐点。本文以衡阳市第一代菜粉蝶幼虫为材料,对其“S”型生长曲线进行了初步研究,并求得其拐点位于第5龄初期,亦即药剂防治的最佳时期。 材料与方法 1.试虫 1986年3月自田间甘蓝上采得第一代菜粉蝶卵,置于室内孵化,幼虫用新鲜甘蓝叶单饲。将同一天孵化的幼虫分成两组,分别作为称重和观察历期试虫。供称重用的幼虫,自孵化之日起,每天均在同一时刻称重1次,直至化蛹,计3批112头。     

瓜子金皂甙丙和丁的化学结构研究

自草药瓜子金(Polygala japonica Houtt)地上部分又分离得到两种皂甙,即瓜子金皂甙丙和皂甙丁,它们的分子式均为 C_(42)H_(68)O_(15),为同分异构物。两者酸水解均得瓜子金皂甙元和 D-葡萄糖,但碱水解时,只有皂甙丁可被水解,产物和酸水解相同。经~1HNMR,~(13)CNMR,MS 推定它们的结构式,瓜子金皂甙丙为3-O-[β-D-葡萄吡喃糖(1→2)-β-D-葡萄吡喃糖]瓜子金皂甙元;而瓜子金皂甙丁为28-O-[β-D-葡萄吡喃糖(1→2)-β-D-葡萄吡喃糖]瓜子金皂甙元。上述两种皂甙均为新化合物。     

甘蔗幼叶切段培养中的体细胞胚胎发生

本文从形态学和组织学方面研究了甘蔗幼叶胚性愈伤组织发生及体细胞胚胎的形成过程。甘蔗幼叶片切段培养于含2.4—D1.5mg/1的MS培养基上,4—6天后切段开始形成愈伤组织,约10天后愈伤组织表面出现白色颗粒状结构。将含有白色颗粒状结构的愈伤组织转移至不含激素的培养基中,7—10天后可见有小植株长出。组织学和形态学观察表明,甘蔗离体再生植株是通过体细胞胚胎发生途径。

The controlling sequence for site-specific chromosome breakage in Tetrahymena

Site-specific chromosome breakage occurs in many ciliated protozoa during nuclear differentiation. We have determined the cis-acting sequence that controls this process in Tetrahymena thermophila. The Tetrahymena ribosomal RNA gene is bounded by two breakage sites. Injection of this gene into developing macronuclei leads to breakage at these sites. Deletion analysis has localized the sequences essential for breakage to a 28 bp region that includes a 15 bp sequence (Cbs) known to be present in other breakage sites. Insertions of Cbs allow breakage to occur at new sites, which is accompanied by elimination of surrounding DNAs and formation of telomeric sequences, as it is at natural sites. Thus, Cbs is the necessary and sufficient sequence signal for chromosome breakage in Tetrahymena.     

Determination of a constitutive relation for passive myocardium: II. Parameter estimation

In the first paper of this series, we proposed a new transversely isotropic pseudostrain-energy function W for describing the biomechanical behavior of excised noncontracting myocardium. The specific functional form of W was inferred directly from biaxial data to be a polynomial function of two coordinate invariant measures of the finite deformation and five material parameters. In this paper, best-fit values of the material parameters are determined from biaxial data using a nonlinear least-squares regression. These values of the parameters are shown to be well-determined, and the final constitutive relation is shown to have good predictive capabilities. Since the proposed constitutive relation describes much broader classes of in-vitro biaxial data than previously proposed relations, it may be better applicable to analyses of stress in the passive heart.     

Development of a FIA system with immobilized enzymes for specific post-column detection of purine bases and their nucleosides separated by HPLC column.

A sensitive and highly selective method for the simultaneous determination of purine bases and their nucleosides is proposed. An amperometric flow-injection system with the two immobilized enzyme reactors (guanase immobilized reactor and purine nucleoside phosphorylase/xanthine oxidase co-immobilized reactor) is used as the specific post-column detection system of HPLC, to convert compounds separated by a reversed-phase. HPLC column to electroactive species (hydrogen peroxide and uric acid) which can be detected at a flow-through platinum electrode. The proposed detection system is specific for a group of purine bases and purine nucleosides and does not respond for purine nucleotides and pyrimidine bases. The linear determination ranges are from 10 pmol to 5 nmol for four purine bases (hypoxanthine, xanthine, guanine, and adenine) and four purine nucleosides (inosine, xanthosine, guanosine, and adenosine). The detection limits are 1.2-5.5 pmol.
