The 3 ends of chloroplast mRNAs are produced by the processing of longer precursors. The 3 ends of most plastid mRNAs are located at, or several nucleotides downstream of, stem-loop structures, which act as 3-end-processing signals and RNA stability elements. In chloroplasts of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, 3-end maturation of atpB mRNA involves endonucleolytic cleavage of the pre-mRNA at an AU-rich site located about 10 nucleotides downstream of the stem-loop structure. This cleavage is followed by exonucleolytic resection to generate the mature 3 end. In order to define critical nucleotides of the endonucleolytic cleavage site, we mutated its sequence. Incubation of synthetic atpB pre-RNAs containing these mutations in a chloroplast protein extract resulted in the accumulation of 3-end-processed products. However, in two cases where the AU-rich sequence of this site was replaced with a GC-rich one, the 3 end of the stable processing product differed from that of the wild-type product. To examine whether these mutations affected atpB mRNA processing or accumulation in vivo, the endogenous 3 UTR was replaced with mutated sequences by biolistic transformation of Chlamydomonas chloroplasts. Analysis of the resulting strains revealed that the accumulation of atpB mRNA was approximately equal to that of wild-type cells, and that a wild-type atpB 3 end was generated. These results imply that Chlamydomonas atpB 3 processing parallels the situation with other endonucleases such as Escherichia coli RNAse E, where specific sequences are required for correct in vitro processing, but in vivo these mutations can be overcome. 相似文献

中国的炭疽杆菌DNA分型及其地理分布 总被引:7,自引:1,他引:6
炭疽广泛分布于中国各地,特别是西部地区,并经常造成人畜疾病,在一项合作研究中,用多位点VNTR分析(MLVA)对从1952-1998年自中国主要地理流行区域分离的病人,病畜和土壤等来源的炭疽杆菌进行了基因分型,MLVA分析结果揭示了21种新的基因型,其等位基因组合在以前世界范围分离物的研究中未曾发现,此外,分离物的分群显示,A3b组是地理上最广泛分布的基因组,说明该组可能是中国的“地方流行株”。而来自古丝绸之路重要贸易中心新疆的大量分离株其基因型特别分散。 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous, non-coding, single-stranded RNAs about 21 nucleotides in length. miRNAs have been shown
to regulate gene expression and thus influence a wide range of physiological and pathological processes. Moreover, they are
detected in a variety of sources, including tissues, serum, and other body fluids, such as saliva. The role of miRNAs is evident
in various malignant and nonmalignant diseases, and there is accumulating evidence also for an important role of miRNAs in
systemic rheumatic diseases. Abnormal expression of miRNAs has been reported in autoimmune diseases, mainly in systemic lupus
erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis. miRNAs can be aberrantly expressed even in the different stages of disease progression,
allowing miRNAs to be important biomarkers, to help understand the pathogenesis of the disease, and to monitor disease activity
and effects of treatment. Different groups have demonstrated a link between miRNA expression and disease activity, as in the
case of renal flares in lupus patients. Moreover, miRNAs are emerging as potential targets for new therapeutic strategies
of autoimmune disorders. Taken together, recent data demonstrate that miRNAs can influence mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis,
relapse, and specific organ involvement of autoimmune diseases. The ultimate goal is the identification of a miRNA target
or targets that could be manipulated through specific therapies, aiming at activation or inhibition of specific miRNAs responsible
for the development of disease. 相似文献

Introduction
The presence of anti-topoisomerase I (topo I) antibodies is a classic scleroderma (SSc) marker presumably associated with a unique clinical subset. Here the clinical association of anti-topo I was reevaluated in unselected patients seen in a rheumatology clinic setting. 相似文献9.

1. Rapid expansion and intensification of anthropogenic activities in the 20th century has caused profound changes in freshwater assemblages. Unfortunately, knowledge of the extent and causes of species loss (SL) is limited due to the lack of reliable historical data. An unusual data set allows us to compare changes in the most sensitive of aquatic insect orders, the Plecoptera, at some 170 locations in the Czech Republic between two time periods, 1955–1960 and 2006–2010. Historical data (1890–1911) on assemblages of six lowland rivers allow us to infer even earlier changes. 2. Regional stonefly diversity decreased in the first half of the 20th century. Streams at lower altitudes lost a substantial number of species, which were never recovered. In the second half of the century, large‐scale anthropogenic pressure caused SL in all habitats, leading to a dissimilarity of contemporary and previous assemblages. The greatest changes were found at sites affected by organic pollution and a mixture of organic pollution and channelisation or impoundment. Colonisation of new habitats was observed in only three of the 80 species evaluated. 3. Species of moderate habitat specialisation and tolerance to organic pollution were most likely to be lost. Those with narrow specialisations in protected habitats were present in both historical and contemporary collections. 4. Contemporary assemblages are the consequence of more than a 100 years of anthropogenic impacts. In particular, streams at lower altitude and draining intensively exploited landscapes host a mere fragment of the original species complement. Most stonefly species are less frequently present than before, although their assemblages remain almost intact in near‐natural mountain streams. Our analyses demonstrate dramatic restriction of species ranges and, in some cases, apparent changes in altitudinal preference throughout the area. 相似文献
