色氨酸阻遏物与其操纵基因复合物的圆二色性研究

用圆二色性谱来确定色氨酸阻遏物与其操纵基因复合物在溶液中的构象变化。色氨酸阻遏物的圆二色性图谱表明它是一种富含α螺旋的蛋白质,通过比较加入Ｌ－Ｔｒｐ前和后的圆二色性谱,发现活性的与非活性的色酸阻遏物二级结构变化很小,ｔｒｐ Ｐ／Ｏ的圆二色性谱与它的单健、双链理论计算曲线对比,可近拟推测操纵基因在溶液中的存在状态。用色氨酸阻遏物对ｔｒｐ Ｐ／Ｏ进行确定,可以从中找出蛋白质与核酸结合的平衡点。从平衡时     

用胆固醇代谢的房室模型速率系数来分析动脉粥样硬化程度

理论上认为胆固醇逆向转运的速率与动脉粥样硬化程序呈负相关。但目前尚无完善的测试血浆脂蛋白－胆固醇体内代谢的方法。我们运用同位素＾３Ｈ－胆固醇示踪方法,建立房室模型,选取健康兔与ＡＳ兔对照,研究血浆脂蛋白转运胆固醇能力的差异,并结合ＡＳ兔主动脉斑块程度对比,结果验证了上述理论,此法如改用短半衰期同位素或稳定性同位素标记的胆固醇,就可用于人体,这可为临床判断ＡＳ程度提供一种无创性的新方法。     

稻根象甲种群空间格局及其受耕法的影响

本文根据36块田的调查,用种群空间格局参数I、C_A、I_δ、m~*/m和α、β值进行分析,稻根象甲幼虫和(?)≥0.6头/样方(每样方为0.5m~2)的成虫种群,在稻田均属具公共k值的负二项分布;(?)<0.6头/样方的成虫种群则为随机分布。成虫聚块的大小和面积与平均密度有关。低密度时种群的聚集主要由于环境的异质性;高密度时种群的聚集则由本身的行为习性所致。随着耕作强度的增加,幼虫种群的聚集度和越冬死亡率增大。

Environmentally-Friendly Pesticidal Activities of Callicarpa and Karomia Essential Oils from Vietnam and Their Microemulsions

There is an ongoing interest to identify alternative pesticidal agents to avoid the chronic problems associated with synthetic pesticides. Essential oils have shown promise as botanical pest control agents. In the present study, the essential oils of four members of the Lamiaceae (Callicarpa candicans, C. erioclona, C. macrophylla, and Karomia fragrans; Vietnamese names: Nàng nàng, Tu châu lông mem, Tu châu lá to and Cà diện, respectively), obtained from wild populations in Vietnam, have been obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The essential oils were formulated into microemulsions and the essential oils and their microemulsions were screened for mosquito larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, Culex quinquefasciatus, and for molluscicidal activity against Pomacea canaliculata. Atractylone and (E)-caryophyllene dominated the volatiles of C. candicans (CCEO) and C. erioclona (CEEO), while the major component in C. macrophylla (CMEO) and K. fragrans (KFEO) was (E)-caryophyllene. The essential oils and microemulsions of both C. candicans and C. erioclona exhibited excellent larvicidal activity against all three mosquito species (Ae. aegypti, Ae. albopictus, and Cx. quinquefasciatus) with LC₅₀ values <10 μg/mL. Additionally, the larvicidal activity of the microemulsions were significantly improved compared with their free essential oils, especially for C. candicans and C. erioclona. All four essential oils and their microemulsions showed excellent molluscicidal activity with LC₅₀ <10 μg/mL. In most cases, the essential oils and microemulsions showed greater pesticidal activity against target organisms than the non-target freshwater fish, Oreochromis niloticus. The in silico studies on physicochemical and ADMET properties of the major components in the studied essential oils were also investigated and most of the compounds possessed a favorable ADMET profile. Computational modeling studies of the studied compounds demonstrated a favorable binding interaction with the mosquito odorant-binding protein target and support atractylone, β-selinene, and caryophyllene oxide as potential inhibitors. Based on the observed pesticidal activities of the essential oils and their microemulsions, the Callicarpa species and K. fragrans should be considered for potential cultivation and further exploration as botanical pesticidal agents.
