1,5-diamino-2-pentyne is both a substrate and inactivator of plant copper amine oxidases.

1,5-diamino-2-pentyne (DAPY) was found to be a weak substrate of grass pea (Lathyrus sativus, GPAO) and sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia, OVAO) amine oxidases. Prolonged incubations, however, resulted in irreversible inhibition of both enzymes. For GPAO and OVAO, rates of inactivation of 0.1-0.3 min(-1) were determined, the apparent KI values (half-maximal inactivation) were of the order of 10(-5) m. DAPY was found to be a mechanism-based inhibitor of the enzymes because the substrate cadaverine significantly prevented irreversible inhibition. The N1-methyl and N5-methyl analogs of DAPY were tested with GPAO and were weaker inactivators (especially the N5-methyl) than DAPY. Prolonged incubations of GPAO or OVAO with DAPY resulted in the appearance of a yellow-brown chromophore (lambda(max) = 310-325 nm depending on the working buffer). Excitation at 310 nm was associated with emitted fluorescence with a maximum at 445 nm, suggestive of extended conjugation. After dialysis, the color intensity was substantially decreased, indicating the formation of a low molecular mass secondary product of turnover. The compound provided positive reactions with ninhydrin, 2-aminobenzaldehyde and Kovacs' reagents, suggesting the presence of an amino group and a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic structure. The secondary product was separated chromatographically and was found not to irreversibly inhibit GPAO. MS indicated an exact molecular mass (177.14 Da) and molecular formula (C10H15N3). Electrospray ionization- and MALDI-MS/MS analyses yielded fragment mass patterns consistent with the structure of a dihydropyridine derivative of DAPY. Finally, N-(2,3-dihydropyridinyl)-1,5-diamino-2-pentyne was identified by means of 1H- and 13C-NMR experiments. This structure suggests a lysine modification chemistry that could be responsible for the observed inactivation.     

菘蓝多倍体育种的研究

本文报道药用植物菘蓝(Isatis indigotica Foft.)同源四倍体的诱发、鉴定、选育的研究。用0.05-0.5％浓度的秋水仙碱水溶液处理萌发的种子,或用0.05-0.3％浓度的此溶液处理幼苗的生长点,均可以获得四倍体植株。最适宜的处理时间为6-12小时。除用直接的细胞学技术鉴定多倍体植株外,一些重要的间接鉴定特征,如叶表皮保卫细胞中叶绿体数,花粉沟数可作为鉴定本种多倍体植株的可靠指标。比较了四倍体植株和二倍体亲本的生物学特性。经过数代选育,获得了性状稳定、繁殖力正常、根与叶中活性成分均有较大幅度提高、生产性能良好的品系。     

松辽盆地阿尔必期微体浮游植物新属种

该文描述了松辽盆地中白垩世阿尔必期泉头组三段的微体浮游植物化石1新属7新种,隶属于微咸水沟鞭藻类2属5新种(含4新亚种),淡水绿藻1属1种和疑源类1新属1新种。并对沟鞭藻 Ngktericysta Bint,1986进行了修订。     

松辽盆地白垩纪微体浮游植物群及其环境讨论

该文报道了松辽盆地白垩纪丰富的非海相微体浮游植物群,主要是沟鞭藻类及一些绿藻和疑源类;论述了藻类的生物地层特征,自下而上初步划分出10个组合带;结合微量元素和古地磁等资料,较详细地讨论了含微体浮游植物组段的沉积环境,认为松辽盆地在白垩纪至少遭受过两次重要的海侵(分别在青山口组一段及嫩江组一、二段沉积时期),导致古松辽湖泊五种不同水体环境的演替,指出微体浮游植物组合的变化是受古盐度、古温度和古水深等因素控制的。此外,对有关组段的地质时代也进行了讨论,进一步补充了新的浮游植物化石证据。     

氧化塘中细菌种群组成动态

对武汉地区氧化塘中的细菌数量、细菌种类、种群组成、优势种及群落多样性进行了初步研究。从氧化塘中分离的细菌经鉴定属于12个属,主要有假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas)、棒杆菌属(corynebacterium)、无色杆菌属(Achromobacter)和微杆菌属(Microbacterium),其它菌属是芽孢杆菌属(Bacillus)、色杆菌属(Chromobacterium)、短杆菌属(Brevibacterium)、葡萄球菌属(Staphylococcus)、微球菌属(Micrococcus)、黄杆菌属(Flavobacterium)、埃希氏菌属(Escherichia)和链球菌属(Streptococcus)。在5个小塘中,细菌数量、种群组成和群落多样性指数都有不同,这与各塘的污染程度有关。由此,多样性指数可用于监测氧化塘的净化效果。     

利用普通怯寄蝇防治菜粉蝶初探

1 前言 从外地引进寄蝇或人工助长当地寄蝇种类防治农林害虫,是有效的生防手段之一,国外已有很多成功的报道。King等(1981)在路易斯安娜州蔗田中人工大量释放螟利索寄蝇(Lixophaga diatraeae)成虫防治第1代小蔗杆草螟(Diatraea saccharalis),不同地区的寄生率分别达到4.1、8.7和35.7％;由于降低了农药的使用量,奇痣窄径茧蜂(Agathis stigmatera)的自然寄生率也相应提高,很好地控制了蔗田害虫的发生。在寄蝇的田间释放技术方面,国外还没有详细的报道。在我国,利用寄蝇防治害虫的工作也是刚刚起步,很多具体问题有待于进一步研究。     

耐热蛋白质延长因子(EF-Tu)的分子和功能的性质(英文)

本文用亲和层析法从Calderobacteriumhydrogenophilum(极端耐热细菌)中分离得到纯的耐热蛋白质延长因子。测得其相对的分子量为51000。该蛋白质对热极其稳定,从膜过滤分析法测定EF-Tu 的活性可知,在80℃加热5 min后,原活性仅仅失去50%。Ouchterlony双向免疫扩散的结果表明,该蛋白延长因子与E.coli 延长因子有着抗原的相似性。而且该因子只含一个半胱氨酸残基,其位置在半胱氨酸81,即肽段T_(13)。Southern 杂交试验的结果显示出C.hydrogenophilum 的染色体DNA 中可能有两个基因编码同一蛋白。     

向日葵籽实产量预测数学模型的研究
