A sensitive fluorometric method for the quantitation of hemoglobin glycosylation, based upon periodate oxidation of the carbohydrate moieties present on both the α- and ?-amino groups of globin is described. The formaldehyde product is measured as the fluorescent 3,5-diacetyl-1,4-dihydrolutidine formed from the condensation of formaldehyde with acetylacetone and ammonia.This method is rigorously designed to assay glycosylated hemoglobin levels and to give a direct measure of the number of glycogroups per milligram of hemoglobin. It requires only 1 mg of protein and may also be used to determine the extent of the nonenzmatic glycosylation of other proteins. 相似文献

How might changes in developmental regulatory pathways underlie evolutionary changes in morphology? Here we focus on a particular pathway regulated by a secreted, signaling peptide, Endothelin1 (Edn1). Developmental genetic analyses show the Edn1-pathway to be crucial for hyomandibular patterning, and we discuss our work with zebrafish suggesting how the signal may function in regulating numbers of skeletal elements, their sizes and their shapes. We then review a broader collection of comparative studies that examine morphological evolution of a subset of the same skeletal elements-the opercular-branchiostegal series of bones of the hyoid arch. We find that phenotypic changes in zebrafish mutants copy evolutionary changes that recur along many actinopterygian lineages. Hence the developmental genetic studies are informative for providing candidate pathways for macroevolution of facial morphology, as well as for our understanding of how these pathways work. 相似文献

Proper craniofacial development begins during gastrulation and requires the coordinated integration of each germ layer tissue (ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm) and its derivatives in concert with the precise regulation of cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation. Neural crest cells, which are derived from ectoderm, are a migratory progenitor cell population that generates most of the cartilage, bone, and connective tissue of the head and face. Neural crest cell development is regulated by a combination of intrinsic cell autonomous signals acquired during their formation, balanced with extrinsic signals from tissues with which the neural crest cells interact during their migration and differentiation. Although craniofacial anomalies are typically attributed to defects in neural crest cell development, the cause may be intrinsic or extrinsic. Therefore, we performed a phenotype-driven ENU mutagenesis screen in mice with the aim of identifying novel alleles in an unbiased manner, that are critically required for early craniofacial development. Here we describe 10 new mutant lines, which exhibit phenotypes affecting frontonasal and pharyngeal arch patterning, neural and vascular development as well as sensory organ morphogenesis. Interestingly, our data imply that neural crest cells and endothelial cells may employ similar developmental programs and be interdependent during early embryogenesis, which collectively is critical for normal craniofacial morphogenesis. Furthermore our novel mutants that model human conditions such as exencephaly, craniorachischisis, DiGeorge, and Velocardiofacial sydnromes could be very useful in furthering our understanding of the complexities of specific human diseases. 相似文献

Endothelin1 (Edn1) signaling promotes ventral character to the facial skeleton. In zebrafish edn1 mutants, the ventral jaw structures are severely reduced and fused to their dorsal counterparts, with a loss of joints that normally form at an intermediate dorsal-ventral position. Loss of function at another locus, sturgeon, also yields joint losses, but only mild reductions in the ventral jaw structures. We show that sturgeon encodes one of two orthologs of Furin present in zebrafish, and that both furin genes may function partially redundantly to activate Edn1 signaling. Supporting this hypothesis, early expression of edn1-dependent genes is downregulated in sturgeon (furinA) mutants. Later in development, expression of most of these genes recovers to near wild-type levels in furinA mutants but not in edn1 mutants. The recovery explains the less severe furinA mutant skeletal phenotype and suggests that late gene expression is dependent on a critical level of Edn1 signaling not present in the more severe edn1 mutants. However, expression defects in the intermediate joint-forming domains in both mutants persist, explaining the joint losses observed later in both mutants. We further show that in both mutants the arches fail to correctly undergo ventral elongation before skeletogenesis begins and propose a model in which this failure is largely responsible for the loss of an Edn1-dependent compartmentation of the arch into the intermediate and ventral domains. 相似文献

By inhibiting techniques using indirect immunofluorescence tests and indirect immunoelectron microscopy, the G(Gross) soluble antigens (GSA) in the body fluids of AKR and C58 mice, which have a high incidence of spontaneous leukemia, were classified according to the known specificity of G antigens in the murine Gross leukemia system. GSA existing in the plasma of nonleukemic and leukemic AKR mice and in the ascitic fluid of transplanted AKR spontaneous leukemia K36 showed the several specificities corresponding to G cell surface antigens, GCSAa, b, and c, and type-specific and group-specific viral envelope antigens, tsVEA and gsVEA, respectively. However, the plasma of nonleukemic C58 mice lacks GSAc, which can be recognized by the G-typing mouse serum. GSA corresponding to G(IX) antigen was not detected in the body fluids. 相似文献

The biogenesis of chloroplasts is genetically complex, involving hundreds of genes distributed between the nucleus and organelle. In higher plants, developmental parameters confer an added layer of complexity upon the genetic control of chloroplast biogenesis: the properties of plastids differ dramatically between different cell types. While the biochemistry and structure of different plastid types have been described in detail, factors that determine the timing and localization of chloroplast development and that mediate chloroplast assembly have remained elusive. To identify nuclear genes that play novel roles in chloroplast biogenesis, we are exploiting nuclear mutations that block the accumulation of subsets of chloroplast proteins. Detailed study of the mutant phenotypes provides clues concerning the primary defect in each mutant. Mutants with defects in chloroplast translation and mRNA metabolism have been identified. Other mutants defective in the accumulation of multiple thylakoid complexes show no apparent defect in the synthesis of the missing proteins. These may identify factors involved in the integration of proteins into the thylakoid membrane and their assembly into functional complexes. 相似文献

Localization of basic fibroblast growth factor to the developing capillaries of the bovine retina 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) is a potent mitogen that has vascular endothelium as one of its principle target cells. Recent work has provided both the complete amino acid sequence of basic FGF and the nucleotide sequence of the genes for both human and bovine basic FGF. Although capillary endothelial cells have been shown to produce basic FGF in vitro and to deposit basic FGF in their extracellular matrix in vitro as well, no direct evidence yet exists for the distribution of basic FGF in vivo. Antipeptide antibodies were prepared against a 15-amino-acid sequence from the amino terminus of basic FGF in order to avoid cross-reactivity with acidic FGF, a protein with 55% overall homology to basic FGF. After affinity purification, these antisera were used to localize the basic fibroblast growth factor in the fetal and adult bovine retina. Immunoreactive material was found in capillaries of the inner nuclear layer, a capillary network undergoing development during the third trimester in the fetal bovine eye. Although the resolution of the technique does not permit a unique assignment of cellular localization, the presence of stain immediately adjacent to the lumen of capillaries suggests that capillary endothelial cells may produce the basic fibroblast growth factor in vivo during vascular development. 相似文献

Lesions in the epithelially expressed human gene FRAS1 cause Fraser syndrome, a complex disease with variable symptoms, including facial deformities and conductive hearing loss. The developmental basis of facial defects in Fraser syndrome has not been elucidated. Here we show that zebrafish fras1 mutants exhibit defects in facial epithelia and facial skeleton. Specifically, fras1 mutants fail to generate a late-forming portion of pharyngeal pouch 1 (termed late-p1) and skeletal elements adjacent to late-p1 are disrupted. Transplantation studies indicate that fras1 acts in endoderm to ensure normal morphology of both skeleton and endoderm, consistent with well-established epithelial expression of fras1. Late-p1 formation is concurrent with facial skeletal morphogenesis, and some skeletal defects in fras1 mutants arise during late-p1 morphogenesis, indicating a temporal connection between late-p1 and skeletal morphogenesis. Furthermore, fras1 mutants often show prominent second arch skeletal fusions through space occupied by late-p1 in wild type. Whereas every fras1 mutant shows defects in late-p1 formation, skeletal defects are less penetrant and often vary in severity, even between the left and right sides of the same individual. We interpret the fluctuating asymmetry in fras1 mutant skeleton and the changes in fras1 mutant skeletal defects through time as indicators that skeletal formation is destabilized. We propose a model wherein fras1 prompts late-p1 formation and thereby stabilizes skeletal formation during zebrafish facial development. Similar mechanisms of stochastic developmental instability might also account for the high phenotypic variation observed in human FRAS1 patients. 相似文献
