Solution structure of the N‐terminal domain of DC‐UbP/UBTD2 and its interaction with ubiquitin

DC‐UbP/UBTD2 is a ubiquitin (Ub) domain‐containing protein first identified from dendritic cells, and is implicated in ubiquitination pathway. The solution structure and backbone dynamics of the C‐terminal Ub‐like (UbL) domain were elucidated in our previous work. To further understand the biological function of DC‐UbP, we then solved the solution structure of the N‐terminal domain of DC‐UbP (DC‐UbP_N) and studied its Ub binding properties by NMR techniques. The results show that DC‐UbP_N holds a novel structural fold and acts as a Ub‐binding domain (UBD) but with low affinity. This implies that the DC‐UbP protein, composing of a combination of both UbL and UBD domains, might play an important role in regulating protein ubiquitination and delivery of ubiquitinated substrates in eukaryotic cells.

鹅掌楸种子和胚胎发育的研究

应用控制授粉、软 X-射线法、常规石蜡制片法和荧光检测等手段,研究了鹅掌楸(Lirio-dendron chinense(Hemsl.)Sarg.胚胎发育和控制授粉与结籽率的相关性。控制授粉后2小时花粉萌发,6小时萌发率最高,柱头可授期持续30小时左右。花粉管借助于柱头毛之间的分泌物进入柱头沟,经花柱沟、珠孔塞和珠心冠原进入胚囊,行珠孔受精。授粉后2周,胚乳为2至3细胞厚的狭组织;第6周,胚乳充满胚囊腔,珠心随之解体殆尽;第7到8周,球形胚、心形胚发生;第14到16周,子叶形成;第22周种子或熟,胚乳丰富。单株自然授粉结籽率不足1%。控制授粉后,单个聚合果的最高结籽率可达39%,9个聚合果的平均结籽率为17.7%。     

小柴胡黄酮的分离及结构鉴定

本文对贵州产小柴胡(B.tenue Buch.-Ham.ex D.Don)黄酮成分进行了研究。从其乙醇浸膏的水溶性物质中分离出四种黄酮醇类成分。根据光谱分析、衍生物制备、酸水解及理化常数测定,分别鉴定为芸香甙(槲皮素-3-芸香糖甙)、水仙甙(异鼠李素-3-芸香糖甙)、山萘酚和槲皮素。此类成分在该种植物中首次分离得到。     

Electrical tolerance (breakdown) of theChara corallina plasmalemma: II. Inductive property of membrane and effects of pH o and impermeable monovalent cations on breakdown phenomenon

Summary Changes in the chord conductanceG and the membrane electromotive forceE _m in the so-called breakdown region of large negative potential of theChara plasmalemma were analyzed in more detail. In addition to the increase inG, the voltage sensitivity of the change inG increased, which was the cause of marked inductive current in the breakdown region. The breakdown potential, defined as a critical potential at which both low and high slope conductances of theI–V _m relationship cross, almost coincided with the potential at which an inductive current began to appear. This breakdown potential level changed with pH _o in a range between 5 and 9. TheChara plasmalemma was electrically most tolerant around pH _o 7.In some cellsE _m shifted to a positive level as large as +50+70 mV during the breakdown phenomenon. Such a large positive shift ofE _m is caused mainly by the increase in conductance of Cl^– and partly Ca²⁺ and K⁺.

枸杞果实铁型超氧物歧化酶的纯化及性质

枸杞果实Ｆｅ－ＳＯＤ粗提液经硫酸铵盐析、离子交换柱层析及凝胶过滤,纯化到电泳单班点均一程度。纯化的Ｆｅ－ＳＯＤ分子量为４４．６ｋＤ,亚基分子量为２２．０ｋＤ。金属元素分析表明,每分子酸含１个Ｆｅ原子。该酶在紫外区最大吸收值为２７８ｕｍ。Ｈ２Ｏ２明显抑制该酶活性,ＫＣＮ对酶活性无影响。该酶氨基酸组成与高等植物和蓝绿藻的Ｆｅ－ＳＯＤ相似,但它具有较高甘氨酸,酸性氨基酸与碱性氨基酸比值高于高等植物而与低等植物及原核生物相近。     

不同产地苍术药材化学成分的比较

江苏、安徽及湖北５个产地苍术（Ａｔｒａｃｔｙｌｏｄｅｓｌａｎｃｅａ（Ｔｈｕｎｂ．）ＤＣ．）商品药材的化学分析结果表明：它们在某些药材性状、一些常规化学成分、挥发油成分和含量上存在显著差异。江苏茅苍术根茎挥发油的化学成分复杂,由此探讨了它作为地道药材的特殊性。同时对苍术的“断面暴露稍久可析出结晶”的性状和《药典》（１９９０年版）规定的“层析谱上应显有苍术素斑点”的鉴别实验进行讨论。
