以融合蛋白形式在大肠杆菌中表达人MCP－1

将编码人单核细胞趋化蛋白－１（ＭＣＰ－１）的基因亚克隆到大肠杆菌表达载体ｐＥＸ３１Ａ中,在大肠杆菌中表达出ＭＳ２／ＭＣＰ－１融合蛋０白,该表达产物约占菌体总蛋白的１５％左右,Ｗｅｓｔｅｒｎｂｌｏｔ检测表明,表达产物可与ＭＣＰ－１抗体特异反应。采用琼脂糖平板法进行活性测定表明,表达产物具有明显的单核细胞趋化活性,说明Ｎ端融合一段细菌蛋白对ＭＣＰ－１有无趋化活性可能没有影响。     

src-specific immunity in inbred chickens bearing v-src DNA- and RSV-induced tumors

Serological data identify a single major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I locus in cattle. Molecular data, however, demonstrate the presence of at least two cattle MHC (BoLA) class I loci. To investigate the number of transcribed BoLA class I genes, we amplified cattle cDNA by using a single MHC class I-specific primer that hybridized to a conserved region of exon 4 and a non-specific 3 primer. Six BoLA class I cDNAs have been cloned and sequenced from a Bos taurus bull heterozygous for BoLA class I serological antigens, demonstrating the presence of a minimum of three loci. Sequence comparisons suggested that one of these cDNAs may be an unexpressed allele or the product of a nonclassical locus.The nucleotide sequence data reported in this paper have been submitted to the GenBank nucleotide sequence database and have been assigned the accession numbers U01186 and U01187.     

Monoclonal antibody specific for α2→8-linked oligo deaminated neuraminic acid (KDN) sequences in glycoproteins. Preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody and its application in immunohistochemistry

Two particular types of sialoglycoproteins have been detected in fish: polysialoglycoproteins containing 28-linked polysialic acid (8Neu5Gc2) _n present in unfertilized Salmonidae fish eggs, and glycoproteins bearing oligo/polymers of deaminated neuraminic acids (KDN) found in the vitelline envelope of the eggs and ovarian fluid. We report the preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody specifically recognizing oligo/polymers of KDN sequences in glycoproteins and its application in immunohistochemistry. Fusion of spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse immunized with a KDN-rich glycoprotein (KDN-gp) containing (8KDN2) _n 6(KDN23Gal13GlNAc13) GalNAc1 residues, with mouse myeloma cells yielded a hybrid cell line producing a monoclonal antibody that bound to KDN-gp, but not to KDN-gp depleted of KDN residues. The specificity of the monoclonal antibody, designated mAb.kdn8kdn, was determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using KDN-gp samples that varied in KDN content. These antigens were prepared by the selective removal of KDN residues from the native KDN-gp. The mAb.kdn8kdn reacted most strongly with the intact KDN-gp and less strongly with KDN-gp samples containing decreased numbers of KDN residues. The mAb.kdn8kdn was shown specifically to recognize the 28-linked oligo/polyKDN sequences, (8KDN2) _n , and to be able to distinguish specifically (8KDN2) _n chains from (8Neu5Ac2) _n and (8Neu5Gc2) _n chains. The antibody was used successfully for the immunohistochemical detection of reactive KDN epitopes in sections of paraffin embedded rat pancreas. Several controls verified the specificity of the immunohistochemical staining, thus providing the first demonstration of (8KDN2) _n sequences in a mammalian tissue. The mAb.kdn8kdn can now be used to search further for glycoconjugates containing (8KDN2) _n chains and will facilitate studies on their biosynthesis, intracellular localization and function.

A simple and efficient method for DNA extraction from grapevine cultivars andVitis species

A quick, simple, and reliable method for the extraction of DNA from grapevine species, hybrids, andAmpelopsis brevipedunculata (Vitaceae) has been developed. This method, based on that of Doyle and Doyle (1990), is a CTBA-based extraction procedure modified by the use of NaCl to remove polysaccharides and PVP to eliminate polyphenols during DNA purification. The method has also been used successfully for extraction of total DNA from other fruit species such as apple (Malus domestica), apricot (Prunus armeniaca), cherry (Prunus avium), peach (Prunus persica), plum (Prunus domestica), and raspberry (Rubus idaeus). DNA yield from this procedure is high (up to 1 mg/g of leaf tissue). DNA is completely digestible with restriction endonucleases and amplifiable in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), indicating freedom from common contaminating compounds.

The genetic characterisation of novel multi-addition doubled haploid lines derived from triticale x wheat hybrids

Two novel 46-chromosome doubled haploid lines, W66 and M17, derived from separate hexaploid triticale x bread wheat crosses, were characterised using cytological and biochemical markers. Both lines were shown to be relatively stable cytologically, over 11 and 8 generations of selfing, respectively. By examining mitotic and meiotic chromosomes, the stabilities of the two lines were shown to be similar with frequencies of 2n=46 in 74.2–85.5% of cells. However, over selfed generations, the rye chromosomes were shown to have lost some of their heterochromatin, which made it difficult to establish their continued presence using cytological techniques, such as C-banding alone. Cytological evidence from pairing studies, C-banding, and fluorescence in-situ hybridization, showed that both M17 and W66 are wheat/rye multi-addition lines with rye chromosome constitutions of 1R+6R, and 1R+4R, respectively. These conclusions were confirmed by isozyme and storage-protein analysis.
