野生紫斑牡丹和四川牡丹种子萌发特性及与其致濒的关系

野生牡丹种子一般较小,而且不同产地之间形状、大小差异较大。其萌发特性与栽培牡丹相比也有较大差异：萌发期长达半年以上,且萌发温度在１０～１５℃为宜,超过２０℃则明显不利于生根及上胚轴生长。四个不同分布地的四川牡丹种子萌发率较一致,均在６０～７７％之间。三个不同产地的紫斑牡丹种子萌发率则相差甚远,分布于甘肃文县的萌发率达７６％,而分布于陕西略阳和湖北神农架的萌发率则分别只有１２％和４．４％,出苗率则更低。本文认为紫斑牡丹的种子特性是其在自然界处于濒危状态的重要原因之一。     

噬菌蛭弧菌噬菌斑的鉴别与纯化的研究

本文报告了使用１／５００营养肉汤双层琼脂培养基,在含有宿主菌及寄生菌混合物的软琼脂层中,蛭弧菌、变形虫及鞭毛虫等均可形成噬菌斑,但其大小、形态、扩展速度不同。鉴别方法除依据噬菌斑形态特征外,主要靠相差显微镜下的形态学观察。蛭弧菌的纯化用单斑传代,一个直径为１ｍｍ的噬菌斑含有约１０^５－６ｐｆｕ／ｍｌ（每毫升噬菌斑形成单位）。     

Nanometric design of extraordinary hydrophobic-induced pKa shifts for aspartic acid: Relevance to protein mechanisms

Commonly a key element enabling proteins to function is an amino acid residue or residues with functional side chains having shifted pKa values. This article reports the results on a set of protein-based polymers (model proteins) that exhibit hydrophobic folding and assembly transitions, and that have been designed for the purpose of achieving large hydrophobic-induced pKa shifts by selectively replacing Val residues by Phe residues. The high molecular weight polypentapeptides, actually poly (tricosapeptides) with six varied pentamers in fixed sequence, were designed and synthesized to have the same amino acid compositions but different proximities between a single aspartic acid residue and 5 Phe residues per 30 residues. With the 5 Phe residues distal from the Asp residue, the observed pKa shift was 2.9 when compared to the Val-containing reference. With the 5 Phe residues within 1 nm of the Asp residue, the pKa shift was 6.2. This represents a free energy of interaction of 8 kcal/moles. To our knowledge, this is the largest pKa shift documented for an Asp residue in a polypeptide– or protein–water system. Data are reviewed that do not support the usual electrostatic arguments for pKa shifts of charge–charge repulsion and/or unfavorable ion self-energies arising from displacement of water by hydrophobic moieties, but rather the data are interpreted to indicate the presence of an apolar–polar repulsive free energy of hydration, which results from a potentially highly cooperative competition between apolar and polar species for hydration. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Differential expression inArabidopsis ofLhca2, a PSI cab gene

A cDNA clone of the geneLhca2 encoding a photosystem I (PSI) type II chlorophylla/b-binding protein was isolated fromArabidopsis thaliana. The isolation of this, the fourth PSI cab gene fromArabidopsis, confirms a previous report [1] that indicatedArabidopsis may contain all four PSI cab genes identified in other plant species.Lhca2 is a single-copy gene as are the other knownArabidopsis PSI cab genes. The patterns of developmental expression and tissue-specific regulation ofLhca2 are similar to those of other PSI and PSII cab genes, but the light induction pattern and the steady-state mRNA level ofLhca2 are distinct. This suggests that a different mechanism may be employed to regulate the expression ofLhca2.     

Ca^2＋敏感性微电极在心肌胞浆Ca^2＋活度检测中的应用

改进的中性载体Ｃａ２＋敏感性微电极（Ｃａ－ＩＳＥ）在尖端直径为０．４—０．８μｍ时仍具有良好特性,可用于心肌胞浆Ｃａ２＋活度（αＣａｉ）的检测。测得豚鼠右心乳头肌、狗心室肌和浦肯野纤维静息时分别为０．１９±０．０１（ｎ＝２２）,０．２０±０．０２（ｎ＝１１）和０．４６±０．０７（ｎ＝１３）μｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１。毒毛旋花苷Ｇ３μｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１使静态及动态心肌分别增高０．１８±０．０２和６．６９±２．０９μｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１（ｎ＝２２）,并出现触发活动（ＴＡ）。１００μｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１蝙蝠葛碱可抑制毒毛旋花苷Ｇ引起的增高,同时使其ＴＡ消失。表明Ｃａ－ＩＳＥ技术可用于心肌组织ＴＡ与的同步检测。     

嗜热蓝藻优雅粘囊藻藻胆体的特性和别藻蓝蛋白的亚基组成

研究了优雅粘囊藻藻胆体（ＰＢＳ）的特性。从聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳（ＰＡＧＥ）、吸收光谱和二阶导数图谱可证明,它的ＰＢＳ含有一种红色藻胆蛋白,两种Ｃ－藻蓝蛋白和三种别藻蓝蛋白。但是,用ＰＡＧＥ和羟基磷灰石柱层析分离和纯化所得藻胆蛋白,一般仅得到一种Ｃ－ＰＣ和一种亚基组成特殊的别藻蓝蛋白ＡＰＣ。这种ＡＰＣ吸收光谱和荧光发射相同于已报告的ＡＦＣ６６０ｎｍ。但是它的亚基组成是（αα′ββ′）２而不是（α′α２β２β′）Ｌｃ１０或（αβ）３。
