St14/TaqⅠRFLPs在甲型血友病基因探测与产前基因诊断中的应用

<正> 甲型血友病是最常见的遗传性凝血疾病,是由于凝血因子Ⅷ(FVⅢ)基因缺陷所致。目前对此病尚无满意的治疗方法。利用DNA分析技术进行甲型血友病基因检测与产前基因诊断对开展优生优育有重要的实际应用价值。由于FⅧ基因组织结构庞大,分子病理改变复杂,目前多采用DNA限制酶片段长度多态性(RFLPs)为遗传标志对有缺陷的FⅧ基因进行连锁分析。St 14(DXS52)是人X染色体长臂远端的一段基因外DNA序列,与FⅧ基因紧密连锁。国外已将St14/Taq Ⅰ RFLPs用于甲型血友病基因携带者的检测,但尚未见到用于产前基因诊断的报道。我们利用引进的St14片段为探针,采用简化的低脂奶粉杂交体系和DNA凝胶原     

固定化酶的微环境效应—载体离子基团性质的影响

作者合成了阴离子型和阳离子型葡聚糖,以此为载体,用CNBr活化其剩余羟基,固定化了葡萄糖淀粉酶和葡萄糖异构酶。就离子型载体对固定化酶的蛋白载量、最适pH和热稳定性等的影响做了考察。发现固定化酶的蛋白载量不仅与载体的电性质有关,也与酶分子自身的电性质有关。当载体电性质与酶蛋白电性质相反时,固定化酶的蛋白载量增加,热稳定性提高、载体电性质与酶蛋白电性质相同时,固定化酶的蛋白载量不变或下降,其热稳定性不变。作者还发现当离子型载体孔度和体系缓冲液浓度一定时,酶分子能否进入多孔性载体内部,对其最适pH是否变化影响极大。若酶分子仅被连接在载体的外表层,其最适pH不发生变化,反之亦然。作者还观察到当多糖类载体引入氨基或羧基后,大大增强了其抵抗微生物侵蚀的能力。     

The effects of temperature and pH on the ethanol tolerance of the wine yeasts, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida stellata and Kloeckera apiculata

The influences of temperature and pH on the survival and growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida stellata and Kloeckera apiculata were examined in the presence of ethanol concentrations between 2.5 and 15% v/v. At 15°C, the maximum concentrations of ethanol permitting the growth of S. cerevisiae, C. stellata and K. apiculata were 15%, 11% and 9%, respectively. These maximum concentrations were decreased at 10°C and 30°C. Cells of S. cerevisiae showed no loss in viability when incubated for 12 d at 10°C or 15°C in the presence of 15% ethanol but showed some loss at 30°C. Cells of C. stellata were tolerant of 12.5% ethanol at 10°C and 15°C but not at 30°C. Cells of K. apiculata were tolerant of 10–12.5% ethanol at 15°C but not at 10°C or 30°C. Sensitivity of the yeast cells to ethanol was marginally increased on decreasing the pH from 6-0 to 3–0.     

小麦原胚对外源大分子与不透膜物质的摄入

为检验小麦原胚基端特定位点上的外连丝型胞间连丝和开放孔道在摄取外源物质上的作用,以不透膜的阳离子铁蛋白(cationized ferritin)和萤黄(lucifer yellow CH )为示踪物,对其吸入与传布动态进行了荧光与电子显微镜观察。结果表明,这两种物质确可以以非跨膜运输的方式沿着原胚基端的特定通道进入原胚细胞。     

Induction by Electric Currents of Ethylene Biosynthesis in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) Fruit

The effects of an electric current on ethylene biosynthesis were investigated in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) fruit that were producing almost no ethylene. Direct currents at 0.5 to 3.0 milliamperes induced much ethylene synthesis, with a rapid continuous increase in the rate, which reached a peak within 5 to 6 hours and then decreased. The rate of production was greater with a stronger current. Ethylene production was not observed after the use of a sine-wave alternating current (60 hertz) at 3 milliamperes, the magnitude at which a direct current had the greatest effect. The activity of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) synthase and ethylene forming enzyme (EFE) increased before the rise in ethylene production. ACC synthase and EFE were activated sixfold and fourfold, respectively, by 2 hours. The concentration of ACC increased linearly up to 6 hours and then decreased. Ethylene induction by an electric current was suppressed almost completely by the infiltration of the cucumbers with 5 millimolar aminooxyacetic acid, an inhibitor of ACC synthase, and was also suppressed 70% by 5 millimolar salicylic acid, an inhibitor of EFE. The results indicate that the ethylene induced by the direct current was synthesized via the ACC-ethylene pathway as a result of electrical stress, a new kind of stress to be identified.

松辽盆地白垩纪微体浮游植物群及其环境讨论

该文报道了松辽盆地白垩纪丰富的非海相微体浮游植物群,主要是沟鞭藻类及一些绿藻和疑源类;论述了藻类的生物地层特征,自下而上初步划分出10个组合带;结合微量元素和古地磁等资料,较详细地讨论了含微体浮游植物组段的沉积环境,认为松辽盆地在白垩纪至少遭受过两次重要的海侵(分别在青山口组一段及嫩江组一、二段沉积时期),导致古松辽湖泊五种不同水体环境的演替,指出微体浮游植物组合的变化是受古盐度、古温度和古水深等因素控制的。此外,对有关组段的地质时代也进行了讨论,进一步补充了新的浮游植物化石证据。     

根分泌物及其生态效应

根分泌物是个古老而年轻的研究领域。早在18,19世纪,人们(Plenk,1795;Decandolle,1830)就观察到根分泌物对邻近植株的促生和抑制作用,1904年Hilter提出“根际”的概念,标志着人们对根分泌物及其生态效应的进一步认识。此后人们对根分泌物研究逐步展开。Lyon和Willson(1920)发现,生长于无菌水培液中的植物能释放有机物,为深入研究奠定了基础。但很长一段时间这个研究领域一

甲型肝炎(甲肝)病毒基因全部开放读码框架cDNA重组于痘苗病毒天坛株DNA的HindⅢM片段,获得了重组痘苗病毒VMS11HAV25。用10~7PFU或10~8PFU病毒量皮内免疫家兔,能诱生甲肝病毒抗体,其滴度与免疫剂量、免疫次数及间隔有关。组织培养中和试验表明,该抗体具有中和甲肝病毒的能力。VMS11HAV25的免疫效果似优于本实验室已报道的另一株甲肝病毒基因重组于TK区的重组痘苗病毒Re41。
