棉属栽培种与野生种杂交的不亲和性

本文研究了棉属栽培种与野生种杂交的不亲和性,试验材料涉及5个染色体组,包括2个栽培种(陆地棉和中棉)和5个野生种(戴维逊氏棉、瑟伯氏棉、三裂棉、阿拉伯棉和比克氏棉)。以陆地棉作母本,异己花粉管在花柱中生长缓慢,有花粉管胚珠低于10%,陆地棉×戴维逊氏棉杂种胚在子叶期坏死。以中棉作母本,不亲和性主要表现在受精后的胚胎发育过程中。     

大肠杆菌棉子糖操纵子a-半乳糖苷酶表达的调节控制

大肠杆菌棉子糖操纵子(raf)位于质粒,其第一结构基因rafA编码的a-半乳糖苷酶为诱导酶。Rat操纵子比乳糖操纵子(lac)或蜜二糖操纵子(mel)对诱导物有更严格的结构特异性。该酶被蜜二糖或棉子糖诱导,也被D-半乳糖微弱诱导,但不受乳糖、PNPG等结构相近糖所诱导。A-半乳糖苷酶的酶诱导形成能力在对数生长末期出现高峰。Rat 操纵子基因结构组成及调节与乳糖操纵子相似。以阻遏物为中介的负调控在raf操纵子调节中起主要作用,同时以环腺苷一代谢降解物基因激活蛋白(cAMP-CAP)为中介的正调控也参与调节。当0．4％葡萄糖加入到其它碳源培养基时,该酶表达水平下降至原活力的1／2—1／3。无论诱导或组成型酶的葡萄糖抑制均未见瞬时抑制。腺苷环化酶(cya)缺失或环腺苷受体蛋白(crP)和cya双缺陷菌株的酶表达则分别下降到原活力的9％和2．5％。Cya突变株或葡萄糖对raf操纵子表达的抑制可被cAMP解除,但cya和crP双缺陷菌株仍有葡萄糖抑制,而且这种抑制不为cAMP抵消,表明通过降低cAMp而影响cAMP-CAP复合体形成还不能解释代谢降解物抑制的全部机制。尚无证据说明吲哚类小分子化合物和低浓度尿素对raf操纵子表达的明显作用。     

产胞外邻苯二酚1.2—双加氧酶的菌种筛选和发酵条件的研究

Two strains of Pseudomonus sp. having the extracellular catechol 1, 2-dioxygenase activity were selected from 112 bacterial strains. The conditions for enzyme production of the strains were examined. The optimal temperature and pH for enzyme formation were 30 degrees C and pH 6.8-7.0 respectively. Enzyme formation was enhanced by sodium benzoate, and was markedly inhibited by glucose, maltose and glycerol. Ammoniacal nitrogen sources were essential for cell growth and enzyme production. Sodium succinate was an effective inducer for enzyme formation. When the organism was grown in 0.15% sodium benzoate medium (pH 6.8-7.0) at 30 degrees C for 72 hours, about 10 units of catechol 1,2 dioxygenase per ml was obtained.     

乙型肝炎病毒表面抗原基因在杆状病毒载体与昆虫细胞体系中的表达

根据杆状病毒A组代表种苜蓿Y纹夜蛾核多角体病毒(Autographa californica Nuclear Po-lyhedrosis Virus,简称AcNPV)的分子生物学资料,我们采用分子剪裁和拼接手段,对AcNPV多角体蛋白基因加以修饰,并用人工合成定位探针,获得大约在该基因的ATG转译起始密码子一9处加有合成BamHl连接序列的转移载体质粒pAc—MV。 再与从乙肝病毒adw亚型的表面抗原基因HBng亚克隆株pYPss一1分出带有Ban·Hl粘性末端的HBsAg基因,构建表达载体质粒pAc—MV—HBsAgo经与野生型AcNPV DNA对Spodoptem 7rugJPerda细胞共转染,借助同源交换,获得插有HBsAg基因的多角体缺陷的重组病毒。根据HBsAg诊断血球凝集试验和HBs^g诊断酶标免疫测定,表明重组病毒使HBsAg基因在昆虫细胞中得到了表达,免疫电镜显示表达产物呈球状颗粒,大小约为22nm。表达产物粗制品按1μg／鼠对bal b／c鼠免疫,并于三周后强化免疫能产生抗体。由HBsAg纯样品酶标免疫法标定的标准曲线估计每升培养物的表达产物约{一8mg,细胞量为1一2×106个/ml.用重组病毒感染玉米螟4龄幼虫,也获得HBsAg基因的表达,展示了简易生产HB sag诊断试剂和疫苗的可喜前景。     

毒素源性大肠杆菌K88ac抗原基因的次级克隆和重组质粒的限制图

从我国引起仔猪腹泻的野生株E. coli 79-1454克隆了K88ac抗原基因,获得了重组体E. coli RR1(pNZ8801),分子量为10 Md。为了得到分子量更小的重组体,用E．coRI消化重组质粒,除去中间约3.2 Md的片段,得到次级克隆株E. coli RR1(pNZ8802),质粒分子量为6.8 Md。测定其K 88ac抗原为阳性,而且其产生的K88at抗原量略高于初级克隆株。电镜照片表明重组体表面长有菌毛。萤光抗体染色和猪刷状缘细胞粘附试验亦表明有良好的粘附生物活性。此重组体可以与本人克隆的K99抗原基因构建成复合重组体。本文还作了重组体的限制性酶切图。     

大肠杆菌棉子糖操纵子α—半乳糖苷酶表达的调节控制

The alpha-galactosidase, coded for by the first structural gene rafA in the plasmid determined raf operon was an inducible enzyme. In contrast to lac or mel operon, raf operon has more strict structural specificity for inducers. The enzyme can be induced by melibiose and raffinose, or weakly by D-galactose, but not by structurally related sugars such as lactose, PNPG etc.. The alpha-galactosidase forming capacity as function of growth curve reached a single peak at the end of the logarithmic phase of the growth. The structure and regulation of raf operon is similar to those of lac operon. The repressormor-mediated negative control plays a major role in the regulation of raf operon, and cAMP-CAP mediated positive control is also involved in the regulation. When 0.4% glucose was added into the medium with other carbon sources, the expression of the enzyme was repressed by 2-3 fold. Transient catabolite repression has been observed neither in inducible nor constitutive alpha-galactosidase expression. Based on alpha-galactosidase assay, in mutant strains CA8306(cya) and CA8445 (cya, crp) the expression level of raf operon was only 9% and 2.5% of that in wild type strain respectively. The glucose effect or the repression in cya mutant can be abolished by 1-5 mmol cAMP. The constitutive alpha-galactosidase expression in cya and cry double mutant (CA8445) remains repressible by glucose, but irreversible by cAMP, suggesting cAMP-CAP complex is not the exclusive mediator of the catablite repression.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

大肠杆菌青霉素G酰化酶基因及其邻近区域的核苷酸全序列

Some of microorganisms have been known to possess penicillin G acylase activity. The E. coli derived penicillin G acylase (PGA) can catalyze the conversion of penicillin G into phenylacetic acid and 6-amino-penicillanic acid, the latter is used as the starting compound for the industrial formation of semi-synthetic penicillins. Apart from its industrial importance, the enzyme PGA displays a number of interesting properties. Catalytically active enzyme is localized in the periplasmic space of E. coli cells and composed of two dissimilar subunits. The two subunits are apparently produced from a precursor protein, via a processing pathway hitherto unique in its features for a prokaryotic enzyme. The studies on processing of the precursor and on the relationship between structure and function of the mature enzyme are important theoretically. Previously we cloned a 3.5 kb DNA fragment from a strain (E. coli AS 1.76), which displays PGA activity. In this paper, we report a nucleotide sequence of the 3.5 kb DNA fragment containing PGA gene. After insertion of the DNA fragment into EcoR I and Hind III sites in pWR 13, pPGA 20 had been obtained. We subcloned the Hind III and Bg1 II treated fragment of 1.6 kb in length from pPGA 20 into Hind III and BamH I sites of pWR 13 to get a pPGA 1.6, and Bg1 II and EcoR I treated fragment of 1.9 kb in length into BamH I and EcoR I sites of pWR 13 to get a pPGA 1.9. The linearized pPGA 1.9 which were digested with appropriate restriction enzymes were progressively shortened from both ends respectively by digestion with Bal 31 nuclease, followed by cleavage of shortened target DNA off vector DNA molecules with appropriate restriction enzymes. The series of the DNA fragments shortened from EcoR I end were then cloned into plasmid pWR 13 which had previously digested with Hind III and Sma I enzymes (Fig. 1). The DNA fragment cloned in pWR 13 were directly sequenced on the resulted plasmids by using primer I and primer II. Thus we have obtained the complete nucleotide sequence of the 3.5 kb DNA fragment. The 3.5 kb fragment contains an intact PGA gene which is 2.6 kb.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)     

酵母ENO2上游激活顺序对酵母 LEU2表达的影响

本文将酿酒酵母(Saccharomyces cerevisiae)中编码烯醇化酶的基因之—ENO2的上游墩活顺序嵌入穿梭质粒YEpl3上酵母LEU2基因上游—405Hpa I的酶切部位。LEU2为编码β-异丙基苹果酸脱氢酶基因。从而研究了酵母ENO2的上游激活顺序对酵母LEU2表达的影响。实验结果表明ENO2上游激活顺序不论正向或反向嵌八都激活LEU2的表达达四倍左右。有亮氨酸存在的条件下,LEU2的表达受到抑制。ENO2上游激活顺序在对LEU2表达的激活上并不受葡萄糖的诱导。提出了用ENO2上游激活顺序组建高表达系统的可能性。     

小麦高分子量谷蛋白亚基基因片段的体外扩增

生物体尤其是高等动植物,绝大多数基因的拷贝数是很低的,如果没有基因扩增的手段,几乎无法研究基因的结构及其与表达的关系。当今分子生物学发展中最基本的技术之一基因克隆,实际上就是基因体内扩增(in vivo amplification)的技术。近年来发展了一种基因体外扩增(in vitro amplification)的新技术,又称
