悼念李世英教授

中国植物生态学与地植物学家,中国植物学会理事,《植物生态学与地植物学学报》常务编委,中国科学院植物研究所研究员李世英同志,因患鼻咽癌,经多方长期治疗无效,于1985年12月17日零点在北京逝世,终年64岁。李世英同志1945年毕业于前中央大学。研究生肄业后,就职于前巾央林业实验所,从     

利用单克隆抗体鉴定人甲胎蛋白(HAFP)抗原结构可分性

本文利用两株针对HAFP分子不同抗原决定簇的单克隆抗体,鉴定HAFP酶解片断的抗原抗体反应性质,并同完整HAFP分子进行比较。结果表明,酶解片断上失去了一株单克隆抗体所对应的分子部份,完整保留着另一株单克隆抗体所识别的抗原决定簇,从而证实HAFP分子某些抗原结构之间具有可分割性。     

Degradation of Dehydrodivanillin by Anaerobic Bacteria from Cow Rumen Fluid

Dehydrodivanillin (DDV; 0.15 g/liter) was biodegradable at 37°C under strictly anaerobic conditions by microflora from cow rumen fluid to the extent of 25% within 2 days in a yeast extract medium. The anaerobes were acclimated on DDV for 2 weeks, leading to DDV-degrading microflora with rates of degradation eight times higher than those initially. Dehydrodivanillic acid and vanillic acid were detected in an ethylacetate extract of a DDV-enriched culture broth by thin-layer, gas, and high-performance liquid chromatographies and by mass spectrometry.     

Chemical transformation of eremofortin C into PR toxin.

The natural products of both eremofortin C (EC) and PR toxin are secondary metabolites of Penicillium roqueforti. Because the chemical structures of EC and PR toxin are closely related to each other and differ only by a hydroxyl functional group in EC and an aldehyde functional group in PR toxin at the C-12 position, the chemical transformation of EC into PR toxin was investigated. Oxidation with a chromic anhydride-pyridine complex was found to be the most satisfactory method.     

Covalent structure of three phase-1 flagellar filament proteins of Salmonella

Using recombinant DNA techniques, the covalent structure was determined for three flagellar filament proteins produced by Salmonella serotypes with phase-1 antigens a, c and d. Comparison of the results obtained, together with previous results for antigen i, indicated an overall structure in which conservation of amino acid sequence was absolute at both ends of the molecule and proceeded inwards with progressively greater variation. Very few differences in nucleotide sequence were detected in regions of amino acid conservation, which suggested that these areas of the gene may be involved in regulatory functions.     

Relationship between bacteriophage T4 and T6 DNA topoisomerases. T6 39-protein subunit is equivalent to the combined T4 39- and 60-protein subunits

T6 DNA topoisomerase has been purified from bacteriophage T6 infected Escherichia coli. Unlike the T4 DNA topoisomerase which has three subunits, it consists of two subunits of molecular weights 75,000 and 51,000. They are the products of T6 genes 39 and 52, respectively. The purified T6 enzyme can stimulate in vitro T6 DNA replication. It has an ATP-dependent DNA relaxation activity similar to the T4 enzyme. Either ATP or dATP can be used in both reactions. Using a "Western blotting" and radioimmuno-detection methods, we show that T6 39 subunit contains protein sequences specified by both the T4 39 and 60 genes. The 52-proteins of both phages appear to be identical. The T4 and T6 topoisomerase genes represent a naturally occurring example of gene separation or fusion.     

向日葵未受精胚珠培养时胚状体发生的显微观察

由开花前1—4天的向日葵子房中取出胚珠,在液体培养基上进行漂浮培养,诱导了未受精的卵细胞发育为单倍体的胚状体.亦诱导了珠被绒毡层产生胚状体。对两种胚状体的发生和发育过程及其形态发生特点作了显微观察与描述。     

光合磷酸化偶联机制研究——Ⅸ.抗生素HP-1对光合磷酸化的解联作用

抗生素HP-1在10~(-7)～10~(-6)M时可以有效地降低光合磷酸化活力,并促进电子传递。它象氯化铵一样能降低光照射时类囊体的质子吸收,但在降低光合磷酸化活力时,既不象氯化铵那样受反应液中磷酸盐浓度的影响,又不象尼日利亚菌素那样依赖反应液中K~+存在。抗生素HP-1可以作为一种新的解联剂而用于光合磷酸化及生物能量转换反应的研究。

泥河湾层中新发现一处旧石器地点

半个多世纪以来,在泥河湾层中寻找早更新世时期的人类遗迹,已成为中、外许多科学家非常关心的一个问题。近几年来,在泥河湾村附近,大量古文化遗物从属于下更新统的泥河湾层中发现了。新的发现为旧石器时代考古学和第四纪地质学又增添了新的内容。
