脯氨酸对缺钾植株的保护作用

在缺钾培养条件下,高粱苗地上部单位鲜重含钾量由于地上部鲜重的增加而下降。从高梁苗钾缺乏症出现的时间、频率和程度来看,Pro培养似乎有利于缓和或减轻缺钾对植物造成的伤害。在同样含钾量情况下,以Ca(NO_3)_2为氮源的苗受到缺钾伤害要重于以Pro为氮源的苗受到的伤害,其钾缺乏症植株的百分数增加值与含钾量降低值之比为0.26,以Pro为氮源的缺钾营养液培养的苗为0.09,即下降同样量的钾前者苗的钾缺乏症的增加要大大地超过后者。Pro并不减轻在缺钾情况下叶绿素含量的下降。     

绿豆子叶衰老期间核酸代谢的变化

萌发绿豆的子叶自然衰老期间,核酸含量降低,RNA降低的幅度比DNA大。电泳分析结果表明,子叶衰老期间细胞核主带DNA明显降低;而迁移慢的卫星带DNA变化不大。在RNA各组分中,18S rRNA从衰老前期就开始降低;25S rRNA和4～5S小分子RNA到衰老后期才缓慢下降。DNase和RNase活性在子叶整个衰老期间都明显升高,是导致核酸含量下降的主要原因。~3H-核苷掺入试验表明,核酸的合成速率在子叶衰老前期有所上升,到衰老后期又降低。poly(A)~ -mRNA含量在子叶开始衰老时明显上升。     

近年来噬菌体研究及应用的几个侧面

近年来由于基因工程的兴起,使噬菌体在分子遗传学方面得到广泛的应用。环境科学的发展使人们不仅认识到噬菌体是自然环境中一类很重要的净化因子,而且也认识到许多噬菌体与肠道病毒在理化特性、分布等方面存在相关性,故被用来作为指示者、追踪者,其存在量可充当特定环境的污染指数。医学科学的发展使人们发现许多具有强烈的毒性作用的细菌毒素是由前噬菌体(prophage)DNA编码,而可采取新的治疗措施。由     

假单胞菌S—42对偶氮染料的脱色和降解代谢

Pseudomonas S-42 was capable of decolorizing azo dyes such as Diamira Brilliant Orange RR(DBO-RR), Direct Brown M (DBM), Eriochrome Brown R(EBR) and so on. The cell suspension, cell-free extract and purified enzyme of Pseud. S-42 could decolorize azo dyes under similar conditions: the optimum pH and temperature laid 7.0 and 37 degrees C respectively. The efficiencies of decolorizing of DBO-RR, DBM, EBR by intact cells stood more than 90%. When the cell concentration was 15 mg(wet)/ml and the reaction time was 5 hours, the decolorizing activity for above three azo dyes by intact cells were 1.75, 2.4, 0.95 micrograms dye/mg cell, respectively. Cell-free extract and purified enzyme could well express the decolorizing activity only under the anaerobic condition and added NADH. Purified enzyme belongs to azoreductase, its molecular weight is about 34,000-2000 daltons, and its Vmax and Km for DBO-RR are 13 mumol.mg protein-1.min-1 and 54 mumol/L. The results of the detection of the biodegrading products of DBO-RR by spectrophotometric and NaNO2 reactional methods showed that the biodegradation of azo dyes was initiated by the reduction cleavage of azo bonds. It was hypothesized that biodegrading metabolism pathway of DBO-RR by Pseudomonas S-42.     

乳牛围产期血浆某些代谢成分和激素含量的变化

在围产期中母牛、胎犊和新生犊的新陈代谢和激素调节有许多特点,研究这些问题对保证母牛和牛犊健康、预防围产期疾病、提高生产性能有重要意义,并可从比较医学角度为人类围产医学提供具有一定参考价值的动物实验依据。     

小鼠LAK细胞对红系祖细胞及多向造血祖细胞增殖的影响

小鼠脾细胞经重组人白细胞介素-2(rhIL-2)激活后对YAC-1,LP-3和WEHI-164等肿瘤细胞均有很强的杀伤活性。在CFU-E和BFU-E培养体系中,不同浓度LAK细胞与BMC直接加入或预温育4h后再培养,均能加强CFU-E和BFU-E增殖。低浓度LAK细胞(LAK/BMC为0.5)与BMC直接加入或预温育后再加入CFU-mix培养体系中,均能增强CFU-mix增殖,而高浓度LAK细胞和BMC(LAK/BMC=8.0)直接加入培养体系则抑制CFU-mix增殖;若共温育后再培养则非常明显地抑制CFU-mix增殖,CFU-mix仅为对照的17.6％。小鼠LAK细胞对造血祖细胞体外增殖具有调节作用,这种调节可能包括分泌某些细胞因子以及细胞间直接相互作用两种方式。
