Localization of binding site for encephalomyocarditis virus RNA polymerase in the 3'-noncoding region of the viral RNA.

We previously showed that encephalomyocarditis (EMC) virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (3Dpol) binds specifically to 3'-terminal segments of EMC virus RNA. This binding, which depends on both the 3'-noncoding region (3'-NCR) and 3'-poly (A) tail [together denoted 3'-NCR(A)], may be an important step in the initiation of virus replication. In this paper, the 3'-NCR and 3'-poly(A) were separately transcribed then mixed, but no complex with 3Dpol was obtained, showing that covalent attachment of the 3'-poly(A) to the 3'-NCR is essential for complex formation. Mutational and deletion analyses localized a critical determinant of 3Dpol binding to a U-rich sequence located 38-49 nucleotides upstream of the 3'-poly(A). Similar analyses led to the identification of a sequence of A residues between positions +10 and +15 of the 3'-poly(A) which are also critical for 3Dpol binding. As U-rich and A-rich regions are important for 3Dpol binding, a speculative model is proposed in which 3Dpol induces and stabilizes the base-pairing of the 3'-poly(A) with the adjacent U-rich sequence to form an unusual pseudoknot structure to which 3Dpol binds with high affinity.

[B10,22-Asp,B25-Tyr-NH2]-去β链C端五肽胰岛素的合成和性质

本文报道了[B10,22-Asp,B25-Tyr-NH2]-去B链羧端五肽胰岛素的制备及其生物活性。结果表明,这一类似物的生物活力比去五肽胰岛素(DPI)的活力高一倍,但却比Gerald所报道的[B10-Asp,B25-Tyr-NH_2]-DPI的活力低很多,说明后者的高活性可能依赖于分子中B22-Arg的存在。

寡聚脱氧核苷酸d(G-C)_3的激光喇曼谱及其分析

用改进的固相磷酰三酯法合成了oligo-d(G-C)_3。以氩离子激光为激发光源,波长488nm.,在室温条件下,分别测定了纯化后的oligo-d(G-C)_3和其组分单体5’-dGMP和5’-dCMP的激光喇曼谱。观察到被测定的物质在300-2500cm~(-1)频率区间,各自都有其特征的谱形和喇曼峰。5’-dGMP和5’-dCMP谱中大多数特征峰在寡聚体的谱中消失,而在oligo-d(G-C)_3谱中出现了几处新的喇曼峰。经查证,峰832,851和899cm~(-1)系糖-磷酸主链的特征喇曼峰,另外几处峰与DNA的构象有关。实验结果表明oligo-d(G-C)_3在水溶液中(室温)主要以B-构象存在。     

Study on models of single populations: an expansion of the logistic and exponential equations

Using the adsorption theory of chemical kinetics, a new equation concerning the growth of single populations is presented:

$\text{d}\text{X}\text{d}\text{t}\text{=}\text{μ}{}_{\mathrm{c}}\text{X(1 ?)}\text{X}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{1?}\text{X}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}{}^{\mathrm{\prime }}$

or in its integral form:

$\text{ln}\text{X}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{o}}\text{?}\text{ln}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{?X}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{?X}{}_{\mathrm{o}}\text{+}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{X}{}^{\mathrm{\prime }}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{?X}\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{?X}{}_{\mathrm{o}}\text{=μ}{}_{\mathrm{c}}\text{(t?t}{}_{\mathrm{o}}\text{)}$

This equation attempts to explain the relationship between population increment and limiting resources. It can be reduced to either the logistic or exponential equation under two extreme conditions. The new equation has three parameters, X_m, X′_m and μ_c, each of which has ecological significance. $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{X′}{}_{\mathrm{m}}$ concerns the efficiency of nutrient utilization by an organism. Its value is between zero and one. With ratios approaching unity, the efficiency is high; lower ratios indicate that population increment is quickly restricted by limiting resources. μ_c, is a velocity parameter lying between μ_e, (exponential growth) and μ_L (logistic growth), and is dependent on the value of $\text{solX}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{X′}{}_{\mathrm{m}}$. From μ_c we can predict the time course of population incremental velocity ($\text{d}\text{X}\text{d}\text{t}$), and can observe that it is not symmetrical, unlike that derived from the logistic equation. At $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{X′}{}_{\mathrm{m}}\text{= 1}$ the maximum velocity of the population increment predicted from the new equation is twice that of the logistic equation.Population growth in nature seems to support the new equation rather than the logistic equation, and it can be successfully fitted by means of a least square method.     

A mechanism coordinating root elongation,endodermal differentiation,redox homeostasis and stress response

Root growth relies on both cell division and cell elongation, which occur in the meristem and elongation zones, respectively. SCARECROW (SCR) and SHORT-ROOT (SHR) are GRAS family genes essential for root growth and radial patterning in the Arabidopsis root. Previous studies showed that SCR and SHR promote root growth by suppressing cytokinin response in the meristem, but there is evidence that SCR expressed beyond the meristem is also required for root growth. Here we report a previously unknown role for SCR in promoting cell elongation. Consistent with this, we found that the scr mutant accumulated a higher level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the elongation zone, which is probably due to decreased expression of peroxidase gene 3, which consumes hydrogen peroxide in a reaction leading to Casparian strip formation. When the oxidative stress response was blocked in the scr mutant by mutation in ABSCISIC ACID 2 (ABA2) or when the redox status was ameliorated by the upbeat 1 (upb1) mutant, the root became significantly longer, with longer cells and a larger and more mitotically active meristem. Remarkably, however, the stem cell and radial patterning defects in the double mutants still persisted. Since ROS and peroxidases are essential for endodermal differentiation, these results suggest that SCR plays a role in coordinating cell elongation, endodermal differentiation, redox homeostasis and oxidative stress response in the root. We also provide evidence that this role of SCR is independent of SHR, even though they function similarly in other aspects of root growth and development.
