Structural analysis of the N- and C-termini in a peptide with consensus sequence.

We present a structural analysis of a peptide, the sequence of which includes amino acids that show preferences for specific positions near the N- and C-termini in protein helices. This peptide has the sequence ac-YMSEDELKAAEAAFKRHGVP-amide, which includes a strong version of an N-terminal Harper-Rose capping box structure as well as a Gly located close to the C-terminus designed to elucidate its role in C-terminal capping. The sequence of five residues at the middle is inserted to separate effects at the two ends via a helix-stabilizing linker. Application of a simulated annealing procedure using interproton distance constraints derived from 1H NOESY experiments in water reveals the presence of a C-terminal structure in this model. The C-terminus forms a folded back structure in a significant fraction of structures generated by the annealing, in most of which Gly assumes an alpha L conformation. This structure occurs within a highly flexible region of the molecule and hence is occupied only a fraction of the time.     

滇藏常绿杜鹃亚属的修订

常绿杜鹃亚属Subgenus Hymenanthes是由K.Koch（1872）根据Blume（1826）建立的Genus Hymenanthes改级组合而成。但长期以来人们一直沿用了Maximowicz（1870）所建立的、后由Koehne（1893）修订过的Subgenus Eurhododendron这一亚属名称,直到最近D.F.Chamberlain（1978,1979,1982）对该亚属的名称才作了正式订正。     

Production of Ethanol from d-Xylose by Using d-Xylose Isomerase and Yeasts

d-Xylulose, an intermediate of d-xylose catabolism, was observed to be fermentable to ethanol and carbon dioxide in a yield of greater than 80% by yeasts (including industrial bakers' yeast) under fermentative conditions. This conversion appears to be carried out by many yeasts known for d-glucose fermentation. In some yeasts, xylitol, in addition to ethanol, was produced from d-xylulose. Fermenting yeasts are also able to produce ethanol from d-xylose when d-xylose isomerizing enzyme is present. The results indicate that ethanol could be produced from d-xylose in a yield of greater than 80% by a two-step process. First, d-xylose is converted to d-xylulose by xylose isomerase. d-Xylulose is then fermented to ethanol by yeasts.     

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。     

通风结构林带背风面湍流相关特征初步分析

本文根据湍流统计理论和野外观测数据,详细分析了林带背风面湍流自相关、空间相关和湍流积分尺度特征。在林带背风面的林缘附近,由于湍流尺度较小,使湍流相关系数不紧密。这时的时间尺度在2—3s(1.5m)和3—8s(5m),而空间尺度为10—20m左右。在远离林带以后,林带的作用减弱,随着湍流尺度增大,导致湍流相关系数增大。这时的时间尺度在15—20s,空间尺度在70—80m范围内,且湍流自相关系数服从2/3的指数定律。     

东北主要造林树种的营养元素含量特征分析

 本文分析测定了东北地区9个主要针阔叶树种的营养元素含量和季节动态,并应用主成分分析和系统聚类分析方法,分析了各树种之间的营养元素相互关系。从而证明了N,P,Ca是植物重要的临界营养元素,Fe和Mn是表土中高度积累元素,树木对前者的吸收与土壤表土中含量有关,而对后者则表现相对的独立性和选择吸收能力。从营养元素的吸收与利用角度考虑,红松与胡桃楸混交,落叶松与水曲柳混交,硬阔叶树与软阔叶树混交,针阔叶树之间混交或白桦与其它各树种混交都是合理的。
