一种模拟高原低氧复合冷冻的简易动物实验舱

以氮稀释法使舱内氧含量维持实验模拟高度,以普通冰箱制冷系统维持舱内恒温,以多功能低温浴槽作为致冻装置。该舱可于２０ｍｉｎ内升至模拟６０００ｍ高度,每次可供１６只大鼠作高原冻伤实验。实验期间高度恒定于６０００±２００ｍ,舱温２１±１℃。相对湿度５５％±１５％,冷冻液－２５．０±０．５℃。该舱结构简单、使用方便,可在实验室中模拟高原条件进行冷冻实验研究。由于不使用人体减压舱,不仅避免了减压缺氧对实验人员的不利影响,也减少了实验消耗。     

Nature of 2n gamete formation and mode of inheritance in interspecific hybrids of diploid Vaccinium darrowi and tetraploid V. corymbosum

RAPD markers were used to determine the level of heterozygosity transmitted via 2n gametes from V. darrowi selection Florida 4B (Fla 4B) to inter-specific hybrids with tetraploid V. corymbosum cv Bluecrop. The tetraploid hybrid US 75 was found to contain about 70% of Fla 4B's heterozygosity, a value attributed to a first-division restitution (FDR) mode of 2n gamete production. Crossovers during 2n gamete formation were evidenced by the absence of 16 dominant alleles of Fla 4B in US 75, and direct tests of segregation in a diploid population involving Fla 4B. RAPD markers that were present in both Fla 4B and US 75 were used to determine the mode of inheritance in a segregating population of US 75xV. corymbosum cv Bluetta. Thirty-one duplex loci were identified which segregated in a 51 ratio, indicating that US 75 undergoes tetrasomic inheritance.     

Regulation of cellulase synthesis in mycelial fungi: Participation of ATP and cyclic AMP

Summary ATP and cAMP in 4 strains of mycelial fungi were determined by luciferin-luciferase system and HPLC respectively. Cellulase synthesis was subject to the dual control of ATP and cAMP. No matter what carbon sourse was used, cellulase synthesis was repressed if intracellular ATP concentration was over 10^-7mg/ml. Exogenous cAMP could increase cellulase synthesis under depression conditions.     

Structure determination of N-linked oligosaccharides engineered at the CH1 domain of humanized LL2

Two humanized antibody mutants, hLL2HCN1 and hLL2HCN5, engineeredwith CH₁ domain-appended carbohydrates (CHOs) were generatedto facilitate site-specific conjugation of radionudides andanti-cancer drugs to antibodies. Such site-specific conjugationmay minimize the incidence of immunoreactlvity perturbationas is often observed with random conjugation. Since the compositionsand structures of CHOs are important in determining the chemistry,efficiency, and extent of conjugation, the sequences of theCH₁-appended CHOs were determined by exoglycosidase digestionsand fluorophore-assisted CHO electrophoresis (FACE). The CHOspecies attached at HCN1 and HCN5 sites in hLL2HCN1 and IJLL2HCN5,respectively, were distinct from each other, heterogeneous,and extensively processed. All of these CHOs were corefucosylatedcomplex-type oligosaccharides and contained Gal (galactose)and GlcNAc (N-acetylglucosamine) residues in the outer branches.Some of the outer branches were composed of Gal

Sequence variation and genetic diversity in the giant panda

About 336–444 bp mitochondrial D-loop region and tRNA gene were sequenced for 40 individuals of the giant panda which were collected from Mabian, Meigu, Yuexi, Baoxing, Pingwu, Qingchuan, Nanping and Baishuijiang, respectively. 9 haplotypes were found in 21 founders. The results showed that the giant panda has low genetic variations, and that there is no notable genetic isolation among geographical populations. The ancestor of the living giant panda population perhaps appeared in the late Pleistocene, and unfortunately, might have suffered bottleneck attacks. Afterwards, its genetic diversity seemed to recover to some extent.
