Autoradiographic method to screen for soil microorganisms which accumulate zinc. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
An autoradiographic method was developed to screen for and isolate soil microorganisms which accumulate zinc (Zn). Diluted soil samples (Rubicon fine sand, Entic Haplorthods [pH 5.9]) were plated on soil extract-glucose agar containing radioactive 65Zn. After 7 days of incubation, individual colonies which accumulated sufficient 65Zn could be detected by autoradiography. These colonies were isolated and confirmed as Zn accumulators in pure culture by using the autoradiographic plate technique. Most Zn accumulators were filamentous fungi, identified as Penicillium janthinellum, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Paecilomyces sp. Isolates of Penicillium janthinellum were the most common Zn accumulators. The most abundant Zn-accumulating bacteria were Bacillus spp. The validity of the autoradiographic plate technique to differentiate soil microbes which accumulate Zn was examined independently by energy dispersive X-ray analysis in a scanning electron microscope. This method confirmed that fungal isolates which gave positive autoradiographic responses in the plate assay bioaccumulated more Zn in their biomass than fungal isolates from the same soil sample which gave negative autoradiographic responses. Thus, this technique can be applied to specifically screen for and isolate microbes from the environment which bioaccumulate Zn. 相似文献

Antiviral resistance has turned into a world concern nowadays. Influenza A H1N1 emerged as a problem at the world level due to the neuraminidase (NA) mutations. The NA mutants conferred resistance to oseltamivir and zanamivir. Several efforts were conducted to develop better anti-influenza A H1N1 drugs. Our research group combined in silico methods to create a compound derived from oseltamivir to be tested in vitro against influenza A H1N1. Here we show the results of a new compound derived from oseltamivir but with specific chemical modifications, with significant affinity either on NA (in silico and in vitro assays) or HA (in silico) from influenza A H1N1 strain. We include docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the oseltamivir derivative at the binding site onto NA and HA of influenza A H1N1. Additionally, the biological experimental results show that oseltamivir derivative decreases the lytic-plaque formation on viral susceptibility assays, and it does not show cytotoxicity. Finally, oseltamivir derivative assayed on viral NA showed a concentration-dependent inhibition behavior at nM, depicting a high affinity of the compound for the enzyme, corroborated with the MD simulations results, placing our designed oseltamivir derivative as a potential antiviral against influenza A H1N1. 相似文献

To identify those glycoproteins whose synthesis or modification is necessary for memory formation, we have studied the uptake of radiolabelled fucose into synaptic plasma membranes (SPMs) and postsynaptic densities (PSDs) derived from two specific left and right forebrain loci, at two different times after training of 1-day-old chicks on a one-trial passive avoidance learning task. To increase the reliability of the comparison, a double-labelling method was used. Tissue samples from intermediate medial hyperstriatum ventrale (IMHV) and lobus parolfactorius (LPO) were isolated at 6 and 24 h after training. At both times, training resulted in region-specific changes, both increases and decreases, in incorporated radioactivity into pre- and postsynaptic glycoproteins. After 6 h, there was a relative decline in incorporation into both SPMs and PSDs of the right IMHV of trained chicks, a decline that persisted in the PSDs until 24 h. A small decline in incorporation in SPMs from the right LPO of trained chicks at 6 h was reversed by 24 h, by which time there was a 64% increase in incorporation into SPMs and a 24% increase into PSDs of the left LPO. Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis of left and right hemisphere samples containing LPO revealed that 6 h after training the main effect was presynaptic, including a reduction of incorporation into high molecular mass glycoproteins, of 150-180 kDa, and an increase in a lower molecular mass (41 kDa) fraction. By 24 h after training, a left hemisphere presynaptic glycoprotein of molecular mass approximately 50 kDa showed the biggest increase in fucosylation. In addition, a wide group of postsynaptic glycoproteins of both hemispheres, in the ranges 150-180, 100-120, and 33 kDa now showed increases in incorporation. Some other fractions showed decreases. These results are in accord with previous data on incorporation obtained using the amnesic agent 2-deoxygalactose. They also support the hypothesis that memory formation involves the strengthening of connections between pre- and postsynaptic neurons of the LPO by growth or modulation of pre- and postsynaptic structures. 相似文献

In this study, the diversity of Plasmodium vivax populations circulating in Pakistan and Iran has been investigated by using circumsporozoite protein (csp) and merozoite surface proteins 1 and 3α (msp-1 and msp-3α) genes as genetic markers. Infected P. vivax blood samples were collected from Pakistan (n = 187) and Iran (n = 150) during April to October 2008, and were analyzed using nested-PCR/RFLP and sequencing methods. Genotyping pvmsp-1 (variable block 5) revealed the presence of type 1, type 2 and recombinant type 3 allelic variants, with type 1 predominant, in both study areas. The sequence analysis of 33 P. vivax isolates from Pakistan and 30 from Iran identified 16 distinct alleles each, with one allele (R-8) from Iran which was not reported previously. Genotyping pvcsp gene also showed that VK210 type is predominant in both countries. Moreover, based on the size of amplified fragment of pvmsp-3α, three major types: type A (1800 bp), type B (1500 bp) and type C (1200 bp), were distinguished among the examined isolates that type A was predominant among Pakistani (72.7%) and Iranian (77.3%) parasites. PCR/RFLP products of pvmsp-3α with HhaI and AluI have detected 40 and 39 distinct variants among Pakistani and Iranian examined isolates, respectively. Based on these three studied genes, the rate of combined multiple genotypes were 30% and 24.6% for Pakistani and Iranian P. vivax isolates, respectively. These results indicate an extensive diversity in the P. vivax populations in both studies. 相似文献

Present study focuses on ameliorative potential of Typha elephantina leave’s aqueous (TE.AQ) extract against Paracetamol (PCM) induced toxicity in rabbits. We fed the male rabbits with 300 mg PCM in alone and in combination with TE.AQ at different doses i.e. (100, 200 and 300 mg/kg body weight) or silymarin (100 mg/kg) daily for 21 days. PCM in alone significantly (P < 0.5) increased serum urea, uric acid, creatinine, total protein, albumin, globulin and blood urea nitrogen. Serum sodium, potassium and magnesium level were high. The glutathione, radical scavenging activity and Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were significantly reduced. Treatment with TE.AQ at dose rate 300 mg/kg body weight and Silymarin significantly ameliorated all the parameters when compared with PCM administered group. The 100 and 200 mg of TE.AQ showed no significant effects. The histopathological examination confirmed the therapeutic potential of TE.AQ. These results established the presence of natural antioxidants in Typha elephantina leaves. 相似文献
