Abstract A number of viruses are known to infect chrysanthemum plants, however in the present study a previously unknown potyvirus was detected using techniques such as ELISA, RT-PCR and hybridization. The ELISA-positive samples were amplified using a potyvirus group-specific primer which gave an amplification of ~850 bp. The amplified product was cloned and sequenced, and shows 72 – 73% homology with known potyviruses that infect chrysanthemums such as Potato virus Y potyvirus, Soyabean mosaic virus and Turnip mosaic potyvirus when compared to the sequence available in the database. However, present potyvirus isolates show 93% homology with Chilli veinal mottle virus and Pepper vein banding virus. The results were further confirmed by Northern hybridization. This is the first report of a potyvirus similar to Chilli veinal mottle virus, and Pepper vein banding virus infecting chrysanthemums. 相似文献

Stone fruits and pome fruits are cultivated commercially worldwide. In India, they are grown in temperate regions, which mainly includes Jammu and Kashmir, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and some North-Eastern states. In this study, an attempt has been made to identify the Prunus necrotic ringspot virus (PNRSV) infecting stone and pome fruits in India and to characterise them on the molecular level. Surveys were conducted in the temperate fruit-growing areas and incidence of PNRSV was detected by serological and molecular means in almond, apple, cherry, nectarine, peach, plum and wild cherry. Further diversity analysis of PNRSV was performed using bioinformatics tools such as clustalW, DNA Data Bank of Japan, MultAlin and Recombination Detection Programme. PNRSV was detected in plum, peach, cherry, almond, nectarine, wild cherry and apple. In the diversity analysis study on the basis of coat protein gene, it was found that the isolates showed identity levels from 82 to 100%. In a plum isolate, a stretch of amino acids from 207 to 221 was found variable from Indian and other isolates. In one of the Indian apple isolates, “NR” repeats at 41–44 position (characteristic of PV-32 group, Group I) were identified. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Indian isolates are falling in Group-I. Movement protein was also amplified from peach and multiple alignment studies showed that N-terminus was mostly conserved, whereas the C-terminal was highly variable. 相似文献

Limited knowledge currently exists regarding the roles of plant genes and proteins in the Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation process. To understand the host contribution to transformation, we carried out root-based transformation assays to identify Arabidopsis mutants that are resistant to Agrobacterium transformation (rat mutants). To date, we have identified 126 rat mutants by screening libraries of T-DNA insertion mutants and by using various “reverse genetic” approaches. These mutants disrupt expression of genes of numerous categories, including chromatin structural and remodeling genes, and genes encoding proteins implicated in nuclear targeting, cell wall structure and metabolism, cytoskeleton structure and function, and signal transduction. Here, we present an update on the identification and characterization of these rat mutants. 相似文献

Processing of viral envelope glycoprotein by the endomannosidase pathway: evaluation of host cell specificity 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
Endo-alpha-D-mannosidase is an enzyme involved in N-linked oligosaccharide
processing which through its capacity to cleave the internal linkage
between the glucose-substituted mannose and the remainder of the
polymannose carbohydrate unit can provide an alternate pathway for
achieving deglucosylation and thereby make possible the continued formation
of complex oligosaccharides during a glucosidase blockade. In view of the
important role which has been attributed to glucose on nascent
glycoproteins as a regulator of a number of biological events, we chose to
further define the in vivo action of endomannosidase by focusing on the
well characterized VSV envelope glycoprotein (G protein) which can be
formed by the large array of cell lines susceptible to infection by this
pathogen. Through an assessment of the extent to which the G protein was
converted to an endo-beta-N- acetylglucosaminidase (endo H)-resistant form
during a castanospermine imposed glucosidase blockade, we found that
utilization of the endomannosidase-mediated deglucosylation route was
clearly host cell specific, ranging from greater than 90% in HepG2 and PtK1
cells to complete absence in CHO, MDCK, and MDBK cells, with intermediate
values in BHK, BW5147.3, LLC-PK1, BRL, and NRK cell lines. In some of the
latter group the electrophoretic pattern after endo H treatment suggested
that only one of the two N-linked oligosaccharides of the G protein was
processed by endomannosidase. In the presence of the specific
endomannosidase inhibitor, Glcalpha1-->3(1- deoxy)mannojirimycin, the
conversion of the G protein into an endo H- resistant form was completely
arrested. While the lack of G protein processing by CHO cells was
consistent with the absence of in vitro measured endomannosidase activity
in this cell line, the failure of MDBK and MDCK cells to convert the G
protein into an endo H-resistant form was surprising since these cell lines
have substantial levels of the enzyme. Similarly, we observed that
influenza virus hemagglutinin was not processed in castanospermine-treated
MDCK cells. Our findings suggest that studies which rely on glucosidase
inhibition to explore the function of glucose in controlling such critical
biological phenomena as intracellular movement or quality control should be
carried out in cell lines in which the glycoprotein under study is not a
substrate for endomannosidase action.

Assiminea affinis (Mousson ms) Böttger, 1887(=A. queenslandica [Pilsbry ms] Thiele, 1927), a previously unrecognised Australian assimineid species, is described anatomically and allocated to the genus Taiwanassiminea Kuroda and Habe, 1950, first described from Taiwan. This is the first record of the genus from Australia. Taiwanassiminea affinis is found in slightly brackish waters in the upper tidal reaches of the larger rivers from northern Queensland to the Shoalhaven River in the southern half of New South Wales. The terrestrial Cyclotropis Tapparone-Canefri, 1883, which has somewhat similar shell and radular characters, is redefined and several species (Assiminea bedaliensis Rensch, 1934; Paludinella javana Thiele, 1927; Assiminea lentula, A. riparia and A. sororcula, all Benthem Jutting, 1963) previously included in Cyclotropis are transferred to Taiwanassiminea. 相似文献

Expression condition for maximum recovery of recombinant Apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV) coat protein was standardized. The in vitro expressed fusion protein with 6xHis tag (~43 Kd) was purified from inclusion bodies and used as an antigen for raising polyclonal antiserum in rabbit. This antiserum consistently detected ACLSV in pome and stone fruits as well as herbaceous host plants by direct double antibody sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA) and direct tissue blot immunoassay (DTBIA). The conditions for immuno-capture RT-PCR (IC-RT-PCR) were also standardized. 相似文献

Background
Although cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, the severity of disease is highly variable indicating the influence of modifier genes. The intestines of Cftr deficient mice (CF mice: Cftr tm1Unc ) are prone to obstruction by excessive mucus accumulation and are used as a model of meconium ileus and distal intestinal obstruction syndrome. This phenotype is strongly dependent on the genetic background of the mice. On the C57Bl/6 background, the majority of CF mice cannot survive on solid mouse chow, have inflammation of the small intestine, and are about 30% smaller than wild type littermates. In this work potential modifier loci of the CF intestinal phenotype were identified.Results
CF mice on a mixed genetic background (95% C57Bl/6 and 5% 129Sv) were compared to CF mice congenic on the C57Bl/6 background for several parameters of the intestinal CF phenotype. CF mice on the mixed background exhibit significantly greater survival when fed dry mouse chow, have reduced intestinal inflammation as measured by quantitative RT-PCR for marker genes, have near normal body weight gain, and have reduced mucus accumulation in the intestinal crypts. There was an indication of a gender effect for body weight gain: males did not show a significant improvement at 4 weeks of age, but were of normal weight at 8 weeks, while females showed improvement at both 4 and 8 weeks. By a preliminary genome-wide PCR allele scanning, three regions were found to be potentially associated with the milder phenotype. One on chr.1, defined by marker D1Mit36, one on chr. 9 defined by marker D9Mit90, and one on chr. 10, defined by marker D10Mit14.Conclusion
Potential modifier regions were found that have a positive impact on the inflammatory phenotype of the CF mouse small intestine and animal survival. Identification of polymorphisms in specific genes in these regions should provide important new information about genetic modifiers of the CF intestinal phenotype. 相似文献10.
