We have undertaken to identify the spectrin gene mutation in a patient with a severe hemolytic form of Hereditary Elliptocytosis with homozygosity for the spectrin alpha I/74 variant. This variant corresponds to the presence of a 74,000 peptide which is produced during mild tryptic digestion of spectrin by cleavage at the Arginine-39 of the alpha I/80,000 domain of the spectrin alpha chain (595 amino acids). We hypothesized that the alpha I/74 mutation would be closed to the cleavage site Arg-39. A genomic library built with the patient's DNA was screened with a probe corresponding to a fragment of the alpha spectrin gene. Two clones were isolated, one being of paternal, the other of maternal origin. The subclones obtained contained the alpha spectrin gene exons 2 and 3 which encode for the first 88 amino-acids of the spectrin alpha I domain. The sequences obtained did not show any abnormality. The implications of these results are discussed. 相似文献

Inhibition of heme synthesis in bone marrow cells by succinylacetone: effect on globin synthesis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effects of 4,6-dioxoheptanoic acid (succinylacetone, SA), an inhibitor of delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase, on total iron uptake, heme synthesis, and globin synthesis were studied in rat marrow cells in culture in order to examine the coordination of heme and globin synthesis. SA inhibited heme synthesis in both control and erythropoietin-stimulated cells in a dose-dependent fashion; at 10(-3) M, inhibition was complete, whereas at 10(-7) M, there was no significant effect. Inhibition of total iron uptake was also dose-dependent although, at 10(-3) M, it was not complete. The inhibition of heme synthesis by SA was partially overcome by addition of 10(-4) M porphobilinogen or protoporphyrin IX. SA caused an almost complete suppression of globin formation in both erythropoietin-stimulated and unstimulated cells as early as five hours after the addition of the inhibitor. When inhibition of heme synthesis was incomplete, globin synthesis was partially inhibited. These results indicate that heme synthesis is required for erythropoietin-mediated induction of globin synthesis in cultured bone marrow cells. 相似文献

C4 photosynthesis evolved multiple times independently in angiosperms, but most origins are relatively old so that the early events linked to photosynthetic diversification are blurred. The grass Alloteropsis semialata is an exception, as this species encompasses C4 and non-C4 populations. Using phylogenomics and population genomics, we infer the history of dispersal and secondary gene flow before, during and after photosynthetic divergence in A. semialata. We further analyse the genome composition of individuals with varied ploidy levels to establish the origins of polyploids in this species. Detailed organelle phylogenies indicate limited seed dispersal within the mountainous region of origin and the emergence of a C4 lineage after dispersal to warmer areas of lower elevation. Nuclear genome analyses highlight repeated secondary gene flow. In particular, the nuclear genome associated with the C4 phenotype was swept into a distantly related maternal lineage probably via unidirectional pollen flow. Multiple intraspecific allopolyploidy events mediated additional secondary genetic exchanges between photosynthetic types. Overall, our results show that limited dispersal and isolation allowed lineage divergence, with photosynthetic innovation happening after migration to new environments, and pollen-mediated gene flow led to the rapid spread of the derived C4 physiology away from its region of origin. 相似文献

Background
1974–2005 studies across Sierra Leone showed onchocerciasis endemicity in 12 of 14 health districts (HDs) and baseline studies 2005–2008 showed lymphatic filariasis (LF) endemicity in all 14 HDs. Three integrated annual mass drug administration (MDA) were conducted in the 12 co-endemic districts 2008–2010 with good geographic, programme and drug coverage. Midterm assessment was conducted 2011 to determine impact of these MDAs on LF in these districts.Methodology/Principal Findings
The mf prevalence and intensity in the 12 districts were determined using the thick blood film method and results compared with baseline data from 2007–2008. Overall mf prevalence fell from 2.6% (95% CI: 2.3%–3.0%) to 0.3% (95% CI: 0.19%–0.47%), a decrease of 88.5% (p = 0.000); prevalence was 0.0% (100.0% decrease) in four districts: Bo, Moyamba, Kenema and Kono (p = 0.001, 0.025, 0.085 and 0.000 respectively); and seven districts had reductions in mf prevalence of between 70.0% and 95.0% (p = 0.000, 0.060, 0.001, 0.014, 0.000, 0.000 and 0.002 for Bombali, Bonthe, Kailahun, Kambia, Koinadugu, Port Loko and Tonkolili districts respectively). Pujehun had baseline mf prevalence of 0.0%, which was maintained. Only Bombali still had an mf prevalence ≥1.0% (1.58%, 95% CI: 0.80%–3.09%)), and this is the district that had the highest baseline mf prevalence: 6.9% (95% CI: 5.3%–8.8%). Overall arithmetic mean mf density after three MDAs was 17.59 mf/ml (95% CI: 15.64 mf/ml–19.55 mf/ml) among mf positive individuals (65.4% decrease from baseline of 50.9 mf/ml (95% CI: 40.25 mf/ml–61.62 mf/ml; p = 0.001) and 0.05 mf/ml (95% CI: 0.03 mf/ml–0.08 mf/ml) for the entire population examined (96.2% decrease from baseline of 1.32 mf/ml (95% CI: 1.00 mf/ml–1.65 mf/ml; p = 0.000)).Conclusions/Significance
The results show that mf prevalence decreased to <1.0% in all but one of the 12 districts after three MDAs. Overall mf density reduced by 65.0% among mf-positive individuals, and 95.8% for the entire population. 相似文献5.

We report the first endothelial lineage-specific transgenic mouse allowing live imaging at subcellular resolution. We generated an H2B-EYFP fusion protein which can be used for fluorescent labeling of nucleosomes and used it to specifically label endothelial cells in mice and in differentiating embryonic stem (ES) cells. A fusion cDNA encoding a human histone H2B tagged at its C-terminus with enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (EYFP) was expressed under the control of an Flk1 promoter and intronic enhancer. The Flk1::H2B-EYFP transgenic mice are viable and high levels of chromatin-localized reporter expression are maintained in endothelial cells of developing embryos and in adult animals upon breeding. The onset of fluorescence in differentiating ES cells and in embryos corresponds with the beginning of endothelial cell specification. These transgenic lines permit real-time imaging in normal and pathological vasculogenesis and angiogenesis to track individual cells and mitotic events at a level of detail that is unprecedented in the mouse. 相似文献

The pH-modified citrus pectin (MCP) has been demonstrated to inhibit galectin-3 in cancer progression. The components and structures of MCP related to this inhibition remained unknown. In this paper, we fractionated MCP on DEAE-cellulose column into a homogenous neutral fraction MCP-N (about 20?kDa) and a pectin mixture fraction MCP-A (wide molecular distribution on Sepharose CL-6B chromatography). Both MCP-N and MCP-A inhibited hemagglutination mediated by galectin-3 with minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) 625 and 0.5?μg/ml, respectively. MCP-N was identified to be a type I arabinogalactan (AG-I) with a main chain of β-1→4-galactan. MCP-N was digested by α-L-arabinofuranosidase to give its main chain structure fraction (M-galactan, around 18?kDa), which was more active than the original molecule, MIC 50?μg/ml. The acidic degradation of M-galactan increased the inhibitory activity, MIC about 5 times lower than M-galactan. These results above showed that the functional motif of the β-1→4-galactan fragment might lie in the terminal residues rather than in the internal region of the chain. Therefore, MCP-N and its degraded products might be developed to new potential galectin-3 inhibitors. This is the first report concerning the fractionation of MCP and its components on galectin-3 inhibition. The information provided in this paper is valuable for screening more active galectin-3 inhibitors from natural polysaccharides. 相似文献
