光合能量代谢对C_3植物光呼吸的调节作用

C_3植物光呼吸与光合作用关系受光合能量代谢状况的调节。在外界无CO_2和照光条件下,贮藏性光合产物经某种转化途径能“回迁”光合与光呼吸碳循环并显著地受到光合能量代谢的影响。在无CO_2或低CO_2浓度、高光强条件下,此碳素“回迁”过程对协调光合能量代谢与光合碳素代谢平衡,可能起重要作用。     

用三维图象量测卵裂前蛙卵膜分子的三维运动

两栖类卵第一次卵裂前,缩时电影显示出卵表面有收缩波。由于卵的体积未变,在收缩时卵的高度必然增加。Sawai(1978)利用棱镜侧面摄取了蝾螈卵轮廓的高度变化,证实了卵裂前卵最高处的高度确有增加。但这一方法不能测知整个卵表面各处的高度变化,而且仅是二维的。在林蛙卵上,我们用荧光漂白恢复技术发现第一次卵裂前卵表面分子有规律性的流动,推测这是卵球的张弛。为了进一步     

绿茶抗氧化剂成分抑制突变作用的初步研究

绿茶水溶性提取物及茶叶中抗氧化剂成份具有明显的抑制AFB_1及Bap诱导的鼠伤寒沙门氏菌回复突变作用。这种抗氧化剂成份还可以抑制AFB_1和Bap诱导的V79细胞基因正向突变,以及AFB_1诱导的V79细胞SCE和染色体畸变。本实验结果提示,绿茶中抗氧化剂成份可能对AFB_1及Bap的致癌性具有抑制作用。本文就茶叶抗氧化剂抑制突变的可能机制进行了初步讨论。     

Characterization of the guinea pig cytomegalovirus genome by molecular cloning and physical mapping.

Fragments of guinea pig cytomegalovirus (GPCMV) DNA produced by HindIII or EcoRI restriction endonuclease digestion were cloned into vectors pBR322 and pACYC184, and recombinant fragments representing ca. 97% of the genome were constructed. Hybridization of 32P-labeled cloned and gel-purified HindIII, EcoRI, and XbaI fragments to Southern blots of HindIII-, EcoRI-, and XbaI-cleaved GPCMV DNA verified the viral origin of cloned fragments and allowed construction of HindIII, EcoRI, and XbaI restriction maps. On the basis of the cloning and mapping experiments, the size of GPCMV DNA was calculated to include 239 kilobase pairs, corresponding to a molecular weight of 158 X 10(6). No cross-hybridization between any internal fragments was seen. We conclude that the GPCMV genome consists of a long unique sequence with terminal repeat sequences but without internal repeat regions. In addition, GPCMV DNA molecules exist in two forms. In the predominant form, the molecules demonstrate sequence homology between the terminal fragments; in the minor population, one terminal fragment is smaller by 0.7 X 10(6) daltons and is not homologous with the fragment at the other end of the physical map. The structural organization of GPCMV DNA is unique for a herpesvirus DNA, similar in its simplicity to the structure reported for murine cytomegalovirus DNA and quite dissimilar from that of human cytomegalovirus DNA.     

黄素氧还蛋白参与的固氮链电子传递

棕色固氮菌中电子载体Fld直接向固氮酶铁蛋白传递电子。Fld_(ox)至Fld_R是双电子二步还原反应,极谱半波电位分别为-210、-550 mV。Fld_(ox)至Fld_(SR)的中点电位为-280 mV,Fld_(SR)至Fld_R为-500mV。铁蛋白中点电位为-256mV,加MgATP后为-390 mV。Fld_R与铁蛋白ox组成的电池电动势为244mV,电子传递可自发进行,反应的J△G~o为-23KJ/摩尔,铁蛋白被Fld_R还原的K_a=1.3×120~4,加入MgATP后△G~o为-10.6KJ/摩尔,K_a=72。因此,未加入MgATP时电子传递反应更易进行。     

油菜细胞质雄性不育系叶绿体DNA特异片段的分子克隆

采用高离子浓度缓冲液法分别提取油菜不育系及保持系的叶绿体DNA。经Sepharcse 4B柱层析纯化后,得到具有较高纯度的叶绿体DNA样品。将其分别用Eco RI、Bam HI、HimdHI、PstI和XhoI 5种限制性内切酶酶解,得到5种限制性内切酶图谱。其中除PstI图谱外,其它4种酶谱均显示出明显的两系间叶绿体DNA结构差异。以pBR 322为载体,分别克隆了不育系Bam HI图谱上的3个特异片段。得到的3个克隆,经克隆杂交及电泳分析后,证实分别带有上述3个目的片段。这些特异片段的特性及其与花粉育性的关系尚在研究中。     

Preliminary crystallographic studies of lobster D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and the modified enzyme carrying the fluorescent derivative

When the active-site carboxymethylated D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is irradiated with ultraviolet light in the presence of NAD+, a fluorescent NAD derivative that is covalently linked to the enzyme is obtained. A preliminary crystallographic study of this fluorescent derivative, as well as of the native and the carboxymethylated enzymes from Palinurus versicolor, showed that they are isomorphous and belong to space group C2 as reported for the native enzyme from Palinurus vulgaris. The three forms of the enzyme, although they have identical unit cell parameters, differ considerably in their diffraction patterns, indicating marked differences in conformation in spite of the fact that they differ chemically only in a restricted region around the active site.     

化学诱导的B95-8细胞中TK酶的分离和性质研究

巴豆油和正丁酸钠(nSB)诱导Raji和B95-8细胞株生成胸腺嘧啶核苷激酶(TK),其粗提液,经DEAE—纤维素柱层析,可分成两个性质不同的TK活性峰—峰Ⅰ和峰Ⅱ:(1)峰Ⅰ是穿过峰,峰Ⅱ为洗脱峰,在120mMol/L从K_2HPO_4缓冲液时洗脱下来;(2)峰Ⅱ含量在病毒生产性细胞B95-8中高于非生产性的Raji细胞;(3)B95-8细胞经联合诱导48小时后,峰Ⅱ比活性最高;(4)TTP对峰Ⅰ和峰Ⅱ的抑制效应不同,两峰利用GTP能力也不同;(5)PAGE结果表明:峰Ⅰ的Rm值为0.044,峰Ⅱ呈现两条带,Rm值分别为0.015和0.276;(6)峰Ⅰ的Km值为0.86μMol/L,峰ⅡKm值为0.29μMol/L。根据以上的结果,我们认为:峰Ⅰ是细胞TK(C-TK),而峰Ⅱ具有许多疱疹病毒TK的特性,因此,峰Ⅱ是EB病毒相关TK(EBV-TK)。     

人14p＋标记染色体的分子细胞遗传学研究

一例23岁女性患者因近五、六年来出现胡须、四肢多毛及偶有月经不规则而就诊。细胞遗传学检查发现一个短臂明显增大的亚中着丝粒的14号标记染色体14p ·p 区域GTG显带呈浅染,C-带暗染,都呈均匀的染色区。硝酸银染色在p 远侧端显现一个Ag-NOR,其大小与正常近端着丝粒染色体的无明显差异。应用~3H标记的7.3 kb长的rRNA基因探针进行染色体原位杂交,自显影银颗粒沿整个p 区域分布,p 上的银颗粒数是正常近端着丝粒染色体短臂上银颗粒平均数的5倍。这些结果排除了Y或其他染色体参加的重排形成p 的可能性,并表明Ag-NOR的大小或NOR的数目并不一定与rRNA基因的数量成正比。研究Dp 或Gp 类型的染色体变异,对了解人二倍体细胞内rRNA基因表达的调控有重要意义。

以13个玉米自交系及其按双列杂交配制的78个单交种为材料,研究性状选择、亲本选择对遗传距离与产量杂种优势、杂种产量关系的影响,结果表明:(1)当性状数较少时,遗传距离与产量杂种优势、杂种产量的关系因性状的不同而异;当性状数较多时,遗传距离与产量杂种优势、杂种产量的关系为抛物线,受性状影响较小;(2)当所选亲本材料的遗传差异较大时,遗传距离与产量杂种优势的关系为抛物线;当所选亲本材料的遗传差异较小时,遗传距离与产量杂种优势的关系为直线或不相关。
