部分酶解酵母高效电击转化研究

以酵母质粒YCp50为外源DNA,电击转化部分酶解酵母宿主菌AB1380,转化效率稳定在10~6转化子/μg质粒DNA左右,比不酶解酵母或酵母原生质球作受体的电击转化效率高一个数量级以上,也比PEG介导的酵母原生质球转化高3～5倍,而且适合于大片段DNA如水稻YAC分子的转化。达最佳转化时的有关技术参数为:新接菌种通气培养至细胞密度1×10~8～1.5×10~8个/ml;转化时细胞密度控制在1×10~9～1.5×10~9个/ml;每毫升酶解缓冲液加15u溶菌酶(lyticase),30℃下处理酵母5min进行部分酶解;电击时,电场设置在6.25kV/cm、电容25μF,电击后直接铺板。     

L-山梨糖提高木霉纤维素酶合成速率机制的研究

在0.5％葡萄糖-Mandels盐培养液中添加终浓度为0.5％的L-山梨糖,可使里斯木霉(Trichoderma reesei C 30)和拟康氏木霉(Trichoderma pseudokoningii S38)的内切和外切β-1,4葡聚糖酶合成速率在培养的2天内提高4倍。与此同时β-葡萄糖苷酶的合成没有明显变化。L-山梨糖能明显抑制菌丝生长,但对葡萄糖的吸收没有影响,对菌丝分泌纤维素酶的机制影响不大。其对酶合成的促进可能主要是通过降低了菌丝体的生长速率。     

籼稻232蜡质基因转录起始位点的鉴定

Ｎｏｒｔｈｅｒｎｂｌｏｔ杂交分析和蜡质基因ｃＤＮＡ的序列分析表明水稻蜡质基因的转录本可能延伸到翻译起始密码子（ＡＴＧ）上游１２ｋｂ处。据此设计了２１Ｎｔ的寡核苷酸引物,并以籼稻２３２胚乳ＲＮＡ为模板,以引物延伸法确定籼稻２３２蜡质基因的转录起始点,籼稻蜡质基因的转录起始旁邻顺序ＣＴＣＡＣＣＡ与高等植物基因的转录起始点一致顺序ＣＴＣＡＴＣＡ仅相差１个碱基。通过顺序比较,对东乡野生稻蜡质基因中的转录起始位点的位置,以及对此两稻种中ＴＡＴＡ盒的可能顺序进行了讨论。     

二核苷酸重复多态性的非同位素检测及其在基因诊断中的应用

本文报道了一种检测二核苷酸重复多态性的简便的非同位素法,利用重复序列两侧的特异引物进行ＰＣＲ扩增,产生的等位片段在薄层变性聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳上分离,再用灵敏的银染法显色。该方法不需要标记ＰＣＲ产物,简便、快速,分辨率可达１ｂｐ,并可用多对引物同时进行多重ＰＣＲ分析。用此方法对ＤＭＤ家系成员ｄｙｓｔｒｏｐｈｉｎ基因的５＇－脑型外显子止游区和３＇－非翻译区的两个（ＣＡ）。位点进行了扩增片段长度多态性分     

一个恢复力受单基因控制的水稻CMS育性回复突变体

利用￣（６０）Ｃｏ－γ射线对具有印尼水田谷细胞质的籼稻细胞质雄性不育系Ⅱ－３２Ａ干种子进行诱变处理,获得了一育性回复突变体Ｔ２４。育性基因未纯合的突变体分离出可育株和完全不育株,比例为３∶１;其与Ⅱ－３２Ａ和珍汕９７Ａ测交,Ｆ１代分离出１∶１的可育株和不育株。育性稳定株系与Ⅱ－３２Ａ和珍汕９７Ａ杂交,Ｆ２分离成３∶１的可育株和不育株。表明其育性回复是由一对基因显性突变所致。这一突变体对不育系的育性恢复机制不同于明恢６３、２０９６４等恢复系,后者表现为两对显性恢复基因作用。未观察到Ｔ２４与亲本Ⅱ－３２Ａ除育性以外的其他性状的差异,因而两者构成育性恢复基因的近等基因系。本文还对不育系育性回复类型和Ｔ２４的理论意义与育种价值进行了讨论。     

Neurotrophin-4/5, brain-derived neurotrophic factor,and neurotrophin-3 promote survival of cultured vestibular ganglion neurons and protect them against neurotoxicity of ototoxins

The ability of neurotrophin-4/5 (NT-4/5), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), and nerve growth factor (NGF) to promote survival of postnatal rat vestibular ganglion neurons (VGNs) was examined in dissociated cell cultures. Of the four neurotrophins, NT-4/5 and BDNF were equally effective but more potent than NT-3 in promoting the survival of VGNs. In contrast, NGF showed no detectable effects. As expected, TrkB-IgG (a fusion protein of extracellular domain of TrkB and Fc domain of human immunoglobulin G) specifically inhibited the survival-promoting effects by NT-4/5 or BDNF and TrkC-IgG fusion protein completely blocked that of NT-3. Immunohistochemistry with TrkB, TrkA, and p75 antisera revealed that VGNs made TrkB and p75 proteins, but not TrkA protein. Ototoxic therapeutic drugs such as cisplatin and gentamicin often induce degeneration of hair cells and ganglion neurons in both auditory and vestibular systems that leads to impairment of hearing and balance. When cisplatin and gentamicin were added to the dissociated VGN culture in which the hair cells were absent, additional cell death of VGNs was induced, suggesting that the two ototoxins may have a direct neurotoxic effect on ganglion neurons in addition to their known toxicity on hair cells. However, if the cultures were co-treated with neurotrophins, NT-4/5, BDNF, and NT-3, but not NGF, prevented or reduced the neurotoxicity of the two ototoxins. Thus, the three neurotrophins are survival factors for VGNs and are implicated in the therapeutic prevention of VGN loss caused by injury and ototoxins. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

海河流域14种农作物对土壤库中磷的输出量和输入量初步研究

 海河流域14种农作物平均含磷量为0.127±0.053%,变化范围0.023—0.214%,不同器官中最高可达0.419%,最低仅为0.019%。对土壤库中磷输出量最大者为谷子,磷可达99.758±56.931kg·ha-1·a-1,其次是玉米和棉花;磷输入量以白薯为最大,为12.557±5.020kg·ha-1·a-1(但包括可食部分块根的输出部分在内),然后是谷子和花生,其余作物均较低,<2kg·ha-1·a-1。具高输出量的作物的部位有玉米、谷子、花生、棉花等果实,谷子、花生、白薯等茎叶;就输入量而言,除白薯为高输入和谷子为低输入类型外,其余均属很低输入型,上述特点揭示了海河流域因作物的收获而大量损失土壤库中的磷,如种植谷子、玉米、棉花等分别以99.758、32.661和26.591kg·ha-1·a-1的速率损失有效态磷。并对不同子流域作物磷的输出(入)量差异以及针对上述问题应采取的对策作了探讨。
