盐泽螺旋藻(Spirulina subsalsa)藻胆体的分离和特性

采用一种简便而快速的方法分离了盐泽螺旋藻的藻胆体。藻胆体的最大吸收波长位于618 nm,室温下荧光反射峰位于677～678 nm。利用7～15％SDS—聚丙烯酸胺梯度凝胶板状电泳,可分出三条有色多肽,其中藻蓝蛋白的α亚单位与别藻蓝蛋白的α亚单位几乎重叠,不易区分;另有分子量为117,99,53,49,27,24.5和14kD的七条无色多肽。117和 99kD多肽可能联结藻胆体和类囊体,并作为末端能量受体,而14kD多肽多为“核”亚结构的组分,其余的可能为“棒”亚结构内和“核”“棒”亚结构间的联结蛋白。     

人子宫内膜纤蛋白溶酶元激活因子及其抑制因子的分布与调控

人子宫内膜中存在组织型(tPA)及尿激酶型(uPA)两类纤蛋白溶酶元激活因子,其含量在增殖期高于分泌期。本文应用免疫组织化学定位证实uPA及tPA两类抗原存在于子宫内膜的腺体细胞和间质细胞中。应用SDS-PAGE分高蛋白质,继而应用纤蛋白-琼脂糖铺盖技术测得离体培养下间质细胞仅释放tPA,腺体细胞仅释放uPA,但两种细胞均分泌PA的抑制因子(PAI)。培液中加入孕酮,明显抑制PA和刺激PAI生成。雌二醇作用与孕酮相反。某些肽类激素hCG、PRL、GnRH及cAMP作用基本与雌二醇相同。但福司克林(FK)则刺激间质、腺体两种细胞产生tPA及少量uPA,抑制PAI生成。本工作表明人子宫内膜中存在PA及PAI作用相反的酶,受激素调控,其生理意义尚待进一步探讨。     

中国柞蚕幼虫腹足趾钩的研究

趾钩是鳞翅目幼虫分类上常用的特征之一。从本世纪40年代起,神冈等对家蚕幼虫腹足趾钩进行了广泛的研究,中岛(1956)对柞蚕幼虫腹足趾钩有过简短的报告。柞蚕幼虫腹足趾钩不但与地理品种分化有关,而且,由于柞蚕幼虫在野外山林中生活,柞蚕取食等活动,均靠趾钩把握柞枝,趾钩与柞蚕把握力有着密切关系。现将柞蚕幼虫腹足趾钩的形态特征扼要报告如下。     

草莓毛管蚜性外激素腺体的形态及组织观察

本文通过对草莓毛管蚜Chaetosiphon fragaefolii(Cockerell)性外激素腺体外部形态的扫描电镜观察,对腺体的外形、大小、位置、数目作了描述;通过对腺体组织不同发育时期的电镜观察,揭示了该虫性外激素腺体的形成期、释放性外激素期和衰老期等不同发育阶段的变化过程.     

CO2 Exchange in soil algal crusts occurring in the trachypogon savannas of the Orinoco Llanos,Venezuela

CO₂ exchange between the atmosphere and soil algal crusts of the Trachypogon savannas of the Orinoco Llanos has been analyzed using an open gas exchange system. These savannas encompass a wide range of physiognomic types, from herbaceous communities to savanna woodlands. A maximum CO₂ flux of 0.207 mg m^-2 s^-1 was measured in the crusts of the Guanipa savannas, while in the other examined crusts (0.035–0.105 mg m^-2 s^-1) the flux was similar to values reported for terrestrial algae. The CO₂ flux data were statistically fitted to the photosynthetically active radiation by a logarithmic relationship, and the photosynthetic efficiencies of the crusts were compared. The activation energy calculated for the CO₂ fixation indicates that limitations by diffusion and photochemical processes were excluded in the Guanipa crusts (above 12 kcal mole^-1), whereas they were evident in the other crust studied. An optimum CO₂ incorporation as a function of the crust water potential was established and carbon gain strategies were proposed on the basis of the results and characteristics of the habitats.     

Synergistic effect of glycine and bacteriocin release protein in the release of periplasmic protein in recombinantE. coli

Summary The synergistic effect of using mitomycin C-induced bacteriocin release protein (BRP) and glycine on cell growth, protein expression and release in a recombinant strain RR1 ofE. coli was investigated. An optimal combination of 50 ng/ml mitomycin C and 0.5% glycine concentration enhanced the release of periplasmic proteins from the cell into the fermentation broth without significantly affecting protein productivity. Under this optimal condition, the percentage of -amylase released into the broth increased from 7–13% to as much as 78%. The cell growth curve and low extracellular activity of the cytoplasmic protein -galactosidase show that there is no appreciable cell lysis.     

大仓鼠肥满度的研究

本文依公式K=100W/L~3计算了大仓鼠肥满度。统计结果表明,雌性肥满度大于雄性肥满度。肥满度随年龄增长而减小。不同作物类型样地中大仓鼠的肥满度变化不明显。不同季节肥满度有一定的变化,主要与繁殖和气候有关。肥满度与种群密度之间不存在明显的对应关系。

人参根系发育形态学的研究

人参(Panax qinseng C. A. Meyer)属于直根系植物,有次生构造。一年生苗只具有主根和侧根。二年以上的人参常在根状茎上长出不定根,即人参根系包括主根和不定根及其各级分枝。主根初生木质部为三原型,侧根和不定根及其分枝多为二原型,偶见三原型。根系随参龄的增加而增大。每年末级分枝自基部于休眠前萎缩、脱落,并在萎缩部分的上一级支根内部产生越冬根原基,越冬根原基是翌年形成全部吸收根的基础。一年生人参由中柱鞘产生一圈初生树脂道,由形成层产生一圈(或二圈)次生树脂道,以后次生树脂道的圈数随参龄的增加而每年增加一圈,自第五年开始渐缓。根内淀粉粒含量随发育时期的变化而相应变化,其积累高峰出现在果后期。研究人参根系发育形态学不仅对全面正确认识人参根系具有理论意义,而且对改进人参栽培管理和评价人参质量具有指导意义。
