The A12 (asymmetric) form of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is generally considered to be synthesized in leg muscle tissues by myotubes under neural influence, but not by myoblasts. We have examined the expression of the different molecular forms of AChE in explants of developing limb buds and dermomyotomes (the myogenic part of the somites) obtained from 3-day-old chick and quail embryos, either directly after removal or during in vitro culture. We describe a muscular differentiation of both territories in vitro, leading to the formation of myotubes which are morphologically similar to the class of early muscle cells described by Bonner and Hauschka (1974). In vivo the A12 form is present in quail dermomyotomes which are almost entirely composed of mononucleated poorly differentiated cells; in contrast, it is absent from similar cells in chick dermomyotomes and from limb buds in both species. This shows that in the case of quail embryos the appearance of the A12 form precedes the fusion of myoblasts into myotubes. In both species, dermomyotome explants express asymmetric and globular forms of the enzyme during muscular differentiation in vitro, whereas limb buds synthesize only globular forms. After surgical removal of neural tube and/or neural crest at 2 days in ovo, the biosynthesis of the A forms in quail dermomyotomes is not suppressed and is consequently not dependent upon prior connection of the dermomyotomes to central neurons or upon the presence of autonomic precursors. Since limb bud muscle cells derive from somites our results raise questions concerning the differentiation of migrating somitic cells in this territory where a neural influence appears necessary to induce the biosynthesis of asymmetric AChE forms. 相似文献

A protocol was developed for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of embryogenic suspension cultures of cassava. The bacterial strain ABI containing the binary vector
pMON977 with the nptII gene as selectable marker and an intron-interrupted uidA gene (encoding β-glucuronidase) as visible marker was used for the experiments. Selection of transformed tissue with paromomycin resulted
in the establishment of antibiotic-resistant, β-glucuronidase-expressing lines of friable embryogenic callus, from which embryos and subsequently plants were regenerated.
Southern blot analysis demonstrated stable integration of the uidA gene into the cassava genome in five lines of transformed embryogenic suspension cultures and in two plant lines. 相似文献

The agronomically important Indica (group 1) rice varieties IR64, IR72, hybrid restorer line Minghui 63, and BG90-2 were co-transformed by microbombardment of embryogenic suspensions with plasmids that contain the Xa21 gene which confers resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae and the hph gene for resistance to hygromycin B. Six of the 55 transgenic R0 plant lines containing the Xa21 gene displayed high levels of resistance to the pathogen, and no partial resistance was observed. The trait was stably inherited in subsequent generations, and transgenic plants are currently in field tests. The ability to transfer agronomically important genes into elite Indica rice varieties demonstrates the applicability of genetic engineering for the agronomic improvement of rice. 相似文献

Regeneration of indica rice varieties remains a limiting factor for researchers undertaking rice Iransformation experiments. As reported for japonica rice and other crops, partial desiccation of indica rice calli dramatically promotes organogenesis and leads to high regeneration ability. We are now able to obtain 66.5%, 61.1% and 73.7% of calli that regenerate plants for the indica varieties TN1, IR72 and IR64 whereas in non desiccated controls only 30.0%, 15.5% and 18.7% of calli regenerated, respectively. Plants obtained were phenotypically normal and 50% were highly fertile. Partial desiccation is a reliable and simple method for improving indica rice regeneration. It also shortens the time of in vitro culture.Abbreviations 2,4-D

Microparticle bombardment as a tool in plant science and agricultural biotechnology 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Microparticle bombardment technology has evolved as a method for delivering exogenous nucleic acids into plant cells and is a commonly employed technique in plant science. Desired genetic material is precipitated onto micron-sized metal particles and placed within one of a variety of devices designed to accelerate these "microcarriers" to velocities required to penetrate the plant cell wall. In this manner, transgenes can be delivered into the cell's genome or plastome. Since the late 1980s microparticle bombardment has become a powerful tool for the study of gene expression and production of stably transformed tissues and whole transgenic plants for experimental purposes and agricultural applications. This paper reviews development and application of the technology, including the protocols and mechanical systems employed as delivery systems, and the types of plant cells and culture systems employed to generate effective "targets" for receiving the incoming genetic material. Current understanding of how the exogenous DNA becomes integrated into the plant's native genetic background are assessed as are methods for improving the efficiency of this process. Pros and cons of particle bombardment technologies compared to alternative direct gene transfer methods and Agrobacterium based transformation systems are discussed. 相似文献

Identification of Replication Specificity Determinants in Two Strains of Tomato Leaf Curl Virus from New Delhi 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文

We used two strains of tomato leaf curl virus from New Delhi to investigate specificity in replication of their cognate genomes. The strains share 94% sequence identity and are referred to as severe and mild on the basis of symptoms on tomato and tobacco. Replication assays in tobacco protoplasts and plants showed that a single amino acid change, Asn10 to Asp in the N terminus of Rep protein, determines specificity for replication of the two strains based upon its interaction with the origin of replication (ori) sequences. The change of Asp10 to Asn in Rep protein of the mild strain coupled with point mutations at the 3rd and 10th nucleotides of the 13-mer binding site altered its replication ability, resulting in increased levels of virus accumulation. Similarly, changing Asn10 to Asp in Rep protein of the severe strain impaired replication of the virus and altered its severe phenotype in plants. Site-directed mutations made in ori and Asn10 of Rep protein suggested that Asn10 recognizes the third base pair of the putative binding site sequence GGTGTCGGAGTC in the severe strain. 相似文献

Cell lineages in peripheral nervous system ontogeny: medium-induced modulation of neuronal phenotypic expression in neural crest cell cultures 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Neural crest, taken from cephalic and trunk levels of quail embryos, was grown in vitro in conventional tissue culture medium (Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 15% fetal calf serum and either 2 or 15% chick embryo extract (CEE] or in a chemically defined serum- and CEE-free medium. Depending on the conditions employed, different types of neuronal or neuronlike cells developed in the cultures. Thus, in medium containing 15% CEE, adrenergic cells (identified by tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity and catecholamine histofluorescence) emerged after 5-6 days. These cells lacked tetanus toxin binding sites and did not react with an antibody directed against 70-kDa neurofilament protein. In the fully defined medium, a neuronal cell type exhibiting neurofilament and substance P (SP) immunoreactivity differentiated from noncycling precursors within 1 or 2 days of culture. If serum was added to the medium, the neurites disintegrated and the neuronal cells ultimately died. By sequentially culturing neural crest, first in the wholly synthetic medium for 1-3 days and then in the conventional medium supplemented with serum and 15% CEE, the disappearance of the SP-positive neurons was followed, several days later, by the emergence of adrenergic cells. The majority of these cells and/or their precursors were found to undergo cell division in culture. We conclude that the cells expressing the adrenergic phenotype (characteristic of the sympathetic nervous system) and those displaying SP immunoreactivity, comparable to a category of neurons in dorsal root and cranial sensory ganglia, derive from distinct sets of precursors. Our results reinforce the contention, deduced from in ovo transplantation experiments (see N. M. Le Douarin, (1984) In Cellular and Molecular Biology of Neuronal Development (I. Black, Ed.), pp. 3-28. Plenum, New York), that at least two lineages, from which sensory and autonomic cell types are derived respectively, are segregated early during neural crest ontogeny and have extremely different survival and trophic requirements. 相似文献
