拉萨郊区藏族跖纹主线走向分析

本文用茚三酮－味精法采集跖纹,体视显微镜下追踪跖纹主线走向,分析了２５０（男女各１２５人）拉萨效区藏族健康人的跖纹样本。结果显示：Ａ线主要走向１区,其次是７区;Ｂ线亦多止于１区和７区;Ｃ线主要止于和９区;Ｄ线止于１区 频率最高;Ｅ线主要走向１３区;Ｐ三叉缺失较多。Ｐｚ＾ｄ线止共位置较高（１３区和１１区）,而Ｐ＾ｆ线止区较低（７区）。在民族和人种间进行了比较,提示藏族践纹主线走向有自己的特点,又呈现     

慢性缺氧对大鼠肺内皮素表达的影响

本文以ＡＢＣ法和原位杂交技术,观察了慢性缺氧时大鼠肺组织内内皮素－１（ＥＴ－１）的表达情况,结果发现：①正常肺血管内皮细胞有少许ＥＴ－１样阳性染色物质呈现。②缺氧ＩＷ后,肺内ＥＴ－１含量增加,主要位于肺血管内皮细胞和支气管粘膜上皮细胞。③缺氧２Ｗ和３Ｗ后,ＥＴ１阳性免疫物质进一步增加,于肺泡细胞内也见到阳性染色。④缺氧１Ｗ后肺内ＥＴ－１ｍＲＮＡ表达增加,缺氧２Ｗ和３Ｗ后,ＥＴ－１ｍＲＮＡ的表达进一步加强。提示缺氧可刺激肺内ＥＴ－１ｍＲＮＡ的表达,慢性缺氧时肺内ＥＴ－１持续分泌增加,这可能是缺氧性肺动脉高压发生的重要因素之一。     

精制白喉毒素加β—丙氨酸后脱毒效果观察

精制白喉毒素加０．０２Ｍβ—丙氨酸,再加甲醛溶液经适当的时间解毒,即可转化为完全类毒化且无毒性逆转的精制白喉类毒素。此精白类的脱毒试验、毒性逆转试验、安全试验及效力试验均符合《中国生物制品规程》要求。在脱毒过程中絮状单位的损失明显低于单纯甲醛脱毒者,纯度亦相应得到了提高。     

Capsid assembly and involved function analysis of twelve core protein mutants of duck hepatitis B virus.

The roles of different regions of the duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) core protein on viral capsid assembly and related functions were examined. Twelve deletion and insertion mutations which covered 80% of the DHBV C open reading frame were constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli. The N-terminal region (amino acids 3 to 66) of DHBV core protein was important for its tertiary structure and function in E. coli. The expressed core mutants without this region apparently inhibited E. coli growth. The results of transmission electron microscopy of E. coli thin sections, capsid agarose gel, and sucrose gradient sedimentation demonstrated that a few DHBV core mutants with insertion in the N terminus and deletion in the C terminus retained the ability to form core-like particles in E. coli. However, other mutations in most of N-terminal and central regions strongly inhibited the self-assembly ability of DHBV core protein in E. coli. In addition, the mutant with a C-terminal region deletion (amino acids 181 to 228) lost most of the nucleic acid-binding activity of the DHBV core protein.     

Deletion mapping of the rotavirus metalloprotein NS53 (NSP1): the conserved cysteine-rich region is essential for virus-specific RNA binding.

NS53 (NSP1), the gene 5 product of the group A rotaviruses, is a minor nonstructural protein of 486 to 495 amino acids which binds zinc and contains an amino-terminal highly conserved cysteine-rich region that may form one or two zinc fingers. To study the structure-function of the gene 5 product, wild-type and mutant forms of NS53 were produced by using a recombinant baculovirus expression system and a recombinant vaccinia virus/T7 (vTF7-3) expression system. Analysis of the RNA-binding activity of the wild-type NS53 immobilized onto protein A-Sepharose beads with NS53-specific antiserum showed that the protein exhibited specific affinity for all 11 rotavirus mRNAs. The use of short virus-specific RNA probes indicated that NS53 specifically recognizes an element located near the 5' ends of viral mRNAs. Analysis of the RNA-binding activity of deletion mutants of NS53 showed that the RNA-binding domain resides within the first 81 amino acids of the protein and that the highly conserved cysteine-rich region within this region of the protein is essential for the activity. Gel electrophoresis and Western immunoblot analyses of intracellular fractions derived from infected cells revealed that large amounts of NS53 were present in the cytosol and in association with the cytoskeletal matrix. Indirect immunofluorescence analysis of cells programmed to transiently express mutant forms of NS53 using vTF7-3 indicated that the intracellular localization domain resides between amino acids 84 and 176 of NS53. Together, these data show that the RNA-binding domain and the intracellular localization domain lie upstream from the region of NS53 previously determined not to be essential for replication of rotaviruses in cell culture (J. Hua and J. T. Patton, Virology 198:567-576, 1994).     

软紫草愈伤组织的初步培养

外植体来源不同的软紫草愈伤组织产生紫草色素的能力各异。６０Ｃｏ－ｒ射线辐照处理后的Ｈ２无性系愈伤组织生长量和色素产生均属上乘。改良ＭＳ基本培养基添加１毫克／升ＫＴ,０．５毫克／升ＩＡＡ,５％（Ｗ／Ｖ）蔗糖对愈伤组织培养较为适宜。马铃薯提取液对愈伤组织生长有明显的促进作用。
