Summary A cultivar lacking the glycinin subunit A5A4B3 (Raiden) was crossed with one lacking the -subunit of -conglycinin (Keburi). Analysis of F2 and F3 progeny indicated that the missing bands of the A5A4B3 and the -subunit were each controlled by a recessive allele of two independently segregating genes. Gene symbols Gy 4/gy 4 and Cgy 1/cgy 1 were proposed for the genes which confer the presence or absence of the glycinin and conglycinin subunits, respectively.Cooperative research of USDA-ARS and the Indiana Agric.

The glycinin gene family encoding the glycinin subunits in soybean plants is composed of at least five gene members. A genomic clone S312 containing the Gy4 gene from a genomic library of cv. Forrest was isolated and partially characterized. The organization of this gene was found to be similar to that of a null allele from cv. Raiden, but different from the Gy4 gene from cv. Dare. The complete nucleotide sequence of this gene has been determined. It is 2599 bp long consisting of four exons and three introns. Comparing the DNA sequences between this gene and the gene from Dare and a null allele from Raiden, the difference found in the coding region was 5-GCAGTGCAAG-3 (nt 824 to 833) in the former case versus 5-TGGAGTTGCAATT-3 (nt 1314 to 1326) in the latter case in the exon 2 domain, resulting in three amino acid differences and one amino acid absence. Some other differences were also found in the non-coding region. The coding sequence and 5-flanking region of the Gy4 gene, when compared with that of other legumin genes as well as group 1 glycinin subunit genes, revealed some interesting features: (1) a transposable element-like sequence was found in the hypervariable region (HVR) of the exon 3 domain, which was lacking in the legumin and the glycinin group 1 genes; (2) in the 5-flanking region from nt –145 to –1, two high-homology sequences were found: one from nt –141 to nt –132, the other from nt –118 to nt –92 which includes the legumin box and the RY repeat element.  相似文献

Hybridizations ofElymus nutans andE. jacquemontii were carried out with one species ofPseudoroegneria (S genome), and 20Elymus species, each containing either of the SH, SY, SYH, or SYW genomes. Chromosome configurations were analysed at metaphase I of the two target taxa and their interspecific hybrids. It is concluded that (i)E. nutans is an allohexaploid containing the SYH genomes, andE. jacquemontii is an allotetraploid having the SY genomes; (ii) the genomic affinity is associated with the geographic distance between the species studied; (iii) minor genomic structural rearrangements have occurred within the hexaploid taxon ofE. nutans.  相似文献

Summary The 5 and 3 flanking regions of the soybean glycinin gene, Gy1, responsible for expression in seeds, were analyzed by quantitative transient expression assay. The construct containing the -glucuronidase (uidA) reporter gene under the control of the 1.12 kb Gy1 promoter and 0.74 kb Gy1 terminator was introduced into immature soybean seeds and leaves by particle bombardment. To normalize the variability of introduction efficiency, a second reporter gene, firefly luciferase, was cobombarded as an internal standard, and relative activities (GUS/luciferase) were measured. There was a seed-specific -glucuronidase (GUS) expression, as observed by X-Gluc staining. Compared with the nopaline synthase gene (nos) terminator, the Gy1 terminator enhanced the level of expression in immature seeds, indicating that the terminator region of the glycinin gene is involved in the activation of the gene expression in these seeds. To identify cis-regulatory elements in the glycinin gene upstream sequence, deleted derivatives of the promoter were fused to the luciferase reporter gene. The expression could be measured with a higher accuracy, and constructs were introduced with the internal reporter uidA gene into immature seeds. The results suggest the presence of a positive regulatory element in the –620 to ––380 region of the Gy1 promoter. A deletion which eliminates the legumin box with its RY element led to increased relative activity, suggesting that this box is negatively regulating expression of the seed storage protein gene. Analysis of mutant promoters also suggest that the RY element involves negative regulation in seeds. This quantitative transient expression assay using particle bombardment provides a reliable system for the study of seed-specific gene expression in soybeans.Abbreviations GUS -glucuronidase - Gy1 glycinin AlaB2 gene - CaMV cauliflower mosaic virus - nos nopaline synthase gene - uidA -glucuronidase gene - X-Gluc 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl glucuronide  相似文献

In bitterlings (Acheilognathinae) C- and Ag-banding karyotypes of 6 species-subspecies collected in China and South Korea were analyzed. The chromosomal constitution of 2n=46 (4SM+42ST) in Rhodeus atremius fangi was quite different from that of 2n=48 (8M+20SM+20ST) in other species-subspecies in Rhodeus. It was concluded from the analysis of banded chromosomes that the increase in number of ST during the karyotype change from 2n=48 to 2n=46 was achieved by a series of pericentric inversions from 24 M-SM to 24 ST, and the decrease in the diploid number was caused by an additional tandem fusion of 4 ST chromosomes, forming a new ST pair in the 2n=46 karyotype. The karyotype of Tanakia koreensis, T. signifer, and Acheilognathus macropterus is 2n=48 (8M+20SM+20ST), 2n=48 (8M+20SM+14–16ST+4–6 A), 2n=44 (14M+16SM+14ST), respectively. In R. ocellatus ocellatus, T. koreensis, T. signifer and A. macropterus, karyotype changes from 2n=48 to 2n=44 due to centric fusion and inversion have also been estimated. It was suggested that C-banding heterochromatin was greatly concerned with the karyotype evolution in bitterlings.  相似文献

Summary Meiotic chromosome pairing and Giemsa C-banding analyses in crosses of several European blue-grained wheat strains with Chinese Spring double ditelosomic and other aneuploid lines showed that Triticum aestivum Blaukorn strains Berlin, Probstdorf, Tschermak, and Weihenstephan are chromosome substitutions, in which the complete wheat chromosome 4A pair is replaced, whereas the strains Brünn and Moskau are 4B substitutions. The alien chromosome pair in all of these strains is an A genome chromosome (4A) from diploid Triticum monococcum or T. boeoticum not present in common tetraploid and hexaploid cultivated wheats. The Blaukorn strain Weihenstephan W 70a86 possesses, in addition to a rye chromosome pair 5R compensating for the loss of part of chromosome 5D, a 4A/5DL translocation replacing chromosome pair 4B of wheat.  相似文献

An 1,3-fucosyltransferase was purified 3000-fold from mung bean seedlings by chromatography on DE 52 cellulose and Affigel Blue, by chromatofocusing, gelfiltration and affinity chromatography resulting in an apparently homogenous protein of about 65 kDa on SDS-PAGE. The enzyme transferred fucose from GDP-fucose to the Asn-linkedN-acetylglucosaminyl residue of an N-glycan, forming an 1,3-linkage. The enzyme acted upon N-glycopeptides and related oligosaccharides with the glycan structure GlcNAc2Man3 GlcNAc2. Fucose in 1,6-linkage to the asparagine-linked GlcNAc had no effect on the activity. No transfer to N-glycans was observed when the terminal GlcNAc residues were either absent or substituted with galactose.N-acetyllactosamine, lacto-N-biose andN-acetylchito-oligosaccharides did not function as acceptors for the 1,3-fucosyltransferase.The transferase exhibited maximal activity at pH 7.0 and a strict requirement for Mn2+ or Zn2+ ions. The enzyme's activity was moderately increased in the presence of Triton X-100. It was not affected byN-ethylmaleimide.Abbreviations 1,3-Fuc-T GDP-fucose:-N-acetylglucosamine(Fuc to Asn-linked GlcNAc)1,3-fucosyltransferase - 1,6-Fuc-T GDP-fucose:-N-acetylglucosamine(Fuc to Asn-linked GlcNAc) 1,6-fucosyltransferase - PA pyridylamino - GnGn GlcNAc1-2Man1-6(GlcNAc1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc - GnGnF3 GlcNAc1-2Man1-6(GlcNAc1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4(Fuc1-3)GlcNAc - GnGnF6 GlcNAc1-2-Man1-6(GlcNAc1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4(Fuc1-6)GlcNAc - GnGnF3F6 GlcNAc1-2Man1-6(GlcNAc1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4(Fuc1-3)[Fuc1-6]GlcNAc - MM Man1-6(Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc - MMF3 Man1-6(Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4(Fuc1-3)GlcNAc - MMF3F6 Man1-6(Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4(Fuc1-3)[Fuc1-6]GlcNAc  相似文献

Summary The dorsal tegument of the mature cercaria of Notocotylus attenuatus is a syncytial, cytoplasmic layer, containing two types of secretory granule which are identifiable ultrastructurally. The type 1 secretory bodies are electron lucid, whereas most type 2 granules have a banded appearance. The ventral tegument contains granules which are secreted from the type 3 cells; the type 3 granules are membrane bound, electron dense, and consist of both an amorphous and a finely striated zone. The type 4 cells mainly contain cigar-shaped granules consisting of an amorphous core surrounded by concentric striations. The granules exhibit structural variability in shape and content. The type 4 cells undergo a cellular migration to the tegument during encystment. The structure of the posterior-lateral glands and mode of secretion of the granules are described. Possible functions of microtubules are discussed for each cell type. Details of some secretory processes involved in the formation of the hemispherical cyst wall are described. The layers of the cyst wall may be related to the granular contents of the various parenchymal cells of the cercaria. The tegument of the metacercaria originates primarily from the cytoplasm of the type 1, type 2, type 3 and type 4 cells.  相似文献

Summary The combined use of proteolytic digestion and lactoperoxidase catalyzed labelling with [125I] applied to membrane-bound or soluble pure F1-ATPase from Micrococcus lysodeikticus has allowed us to establish the topography of its , , and subunits within the protein molecule and with respect to the plane of the membrane.The subunit is most externally located to the membrane bilayer looking towards the cytoplasmic face, a position consistent with its proposed catalytic role. The and subunits lie in an intermediate layer between the subunits and the membrane, in which the subunit occupies a central position within the F1-ATPase molecule in contact with the subunit. The subunit appears to be tightly bound to the F0 component of the ATPase complex, probably buried in the membrane bilayer. A molecular arrangement of M. lysodeikticus ATPase is proposed that, taking into account the subunit stoichiometry 3 3 2 2 (MW 420 000), accommodates the role assigned to each subunit and most, if not all, the known properties of this bacterial energy-transducing protein.  相似文献

N1 (= Nijmegen 1) D. melanogaster heterozygous for sparkling poliert (4) (= pol, here) were backcrossed as single pairs. When were not selected for departure from 1/1, pol/pol +, many exceptional ratios were observed even though the net for all 67 pairs was approximately one-to-one; in the same experiment a net excess of was observed. In a second experiment were selected for departure from 1/1, pol/pol +ratios. The net pol/pol +ratios became significantly different from the 1/1 expected but the sex ratio approached normal. Lineage of the males in the second experiment were recorded and displayed as pedigrees. These together with tabulated data suggest that in some pairs, one of the four categories pol , pol , pol +, pol + may be significantly greater or less than 1/4 of the total offspring recovered.  相似文献

Six tetrasaccharide fractions were isolated from shark cartilage chondroitin sulfate D by gel filtration chromatography followed by HPLC on an amine-bound silica column after exhaustive digestion with testicular hyaluronidase. Their structures were determined unambiguously by one- and two-dimensional 500 MHz1H NMR spectroscopy in conjunction with HPLC analysis of chondroitinase AC-II digests of the tetrasaccharides. One fraction was found to contain two tetrasaccharide components. All the seven tetrasaccharides shared the common core structure GlcA1-3GalNAc1-4GlcA1-3GalNAc with various sulfation profiles. Four were disulfated comprising of two monosulfated disaccharide units GlcA1-3GalNAc(4-sulfate) and/or GlcA1-3GalNAc(6-sulfate), whereas the other three were hitherto unreported trisulfated tetrasaccharides containing a disulfated disaccharide unit GlcA(2-sulfate)1-3GalNAc(6-sulfate) and a monosulfated disaccharide unit GlcA1-3GalNAc(4-or 6-sulfate). These sulfated tetrasaccharides were demonstrated to serve as appropriate acceptor substrates for serum -N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase, indicating their usefulness as authentic oligosaccharide substrates or probes for the glycobiology of sulfated glycosaminoglycans.Abbreviations NFU National formulary unit - COSY correlation spectroscopy - HOHAHA homonuclear Hartmann-Hahn - 1D or 2D one- or two-dimensional - IdoA l-iduronic acid - GlcA d-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid - Di-0S GlcA1-3GalNAc - Di-4S GlcA1-3GalNAc(4-sulfate) - Di-4S GlcA1-3GalNAc(4-sulfate) - Di-6S GlcA1-3GalNAc(6-sulfate) - Di-6S GlcA1-3GalNAc(6-sulfate) - Di-diS d GlcA(2-sulfate)1-3GalNAc(6-sulfate) - Di-diSE GlcA1-3GalNAc(4, 6-disulfate) - U G, U, 2S, 4S, and 6S represent GlcA, GalNAc, GlcA, 2-O-sulfate, 4-O-sulfate, and 6-O-sulfate, respectively  相似文献

Competitive interactions were compared under field and greenhouse conditions for three representative tallgrass prairie species, Echinacea purpurea, Panicum virgatum and Ratibida pinnata. These were planted in monoculture and in mixtures of two species using a replacement series design with groups of four or eight plants. Competition was determined from shoot dry weight data collected during 120days in the greenhouse and after 415days in the field. Yields declined with increased density of a single species in the greenhouse from 40days onward and in the field. Relative yields were up to 100% higher in mixtures than in monocultures for all species early on in the greenhouse experiment. Later in the experiment and in the field relative yields of E.purpurea decreased in the presence of P.virgatum and R.pinnata, whereas relative yields of these two species increased in the presence of E.purpurea. There were correlations in relative yield between the field and the greenhouse experiment at 80 and 120days. In the greenhouse P.virgatum maintained higher net assimilation rates than the other species. Relative growth rates of all species were higher in monoculture and in mixtures up to 40days, after which they declined, especially for E.purpurea in mixtures. In the field, higher light intensities occurred in pure stands of E.purpurea than in mixed stands with other species. The order of competitive ability that was apparent from these field and greenhouse studies, P.virgatum=R.pinnata>E.purpurea, could be partially explained by photosynthetic rates in relation to canopy light interception.  相似文献

Summary Determinations of current-voltage relationships are widely employed in the characterization of epithelial sodium transport. In order to determine the protocol dependence of transport parameters in the toad urinary bladder, studies were carried out in the presence and absence of amiloride, an inhibitor of active sodium transport. With symmetric positive and negative perturbations of the transepithelial electrical potential difference (0±100 mV) for 30 sec, the amiloride-sensitive current-voltage (i a -) relationship was near linear over the range –75+100 mV, indicating constancy of the conductance a and the apparent electromotive force E Na, lumped parameters of the standard electrical equivalent circuit model of the active transport system. With a reverse protocol (±1000 mV) or 15 min perturbations thei a - relationships were highly nonlinear. Nonlinearity reflected voltage dependence of parameters: perturbations that increased active transport decreased E Na and increased a, as evaluated from 10 sec perturbations of ; slowing of active transport produced the converse changes. These effects are usefully analyzed in both quasi-steady states and true steady states by means of a detailed equivalent circuit incorporating the significant ionic currents across each plasma membrane. Precise understanding of the significance of a and E Na will require characterization of the partial ionic conductances on perturbation of .  相似文献

Role of mitochondria in ethanol tolerance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
The presence of active mitochondria and oxidative metabolism is shown to be essential to maintain low inhibition levels by ethanol of the growth rate (), fermentation rate (v) or respiration rate () of Saccharomyces cerevisiae wild type strain S288C. Cells which have respiratory metabolism show K i (ethanol inhibition constant) values for , v and , higher (K i>1 M) than those of petite mutants or grande strains grown in anaerobiosis (K i=0.7 M). In addition, the relationship between or v and ethanol concentration is linear in cells with respiratory metabolism and exponential in cells lacking respiration. When functional mitochondria are transferred to petite mutants, the resulting strain shows K i values similar to those of the grande strain and the inhibition of and v by increasing ethanol concentrations becomes linear.  相似文献

An experiment is described which shows in operation the program set out in Foster (1972a) for the investigation of the invariance transformations of visual recognition. The concern in the present study is with the Lie group of rotations SO(2), and a certain centrally located foveal Landolt ring. By presenting to the visual system this Landolt ring and a rotated image in rapid succession, one attempted to induce a specified rotation-type phi-motion. Two subjects were employed. Both reported the existence of the required type of phi-motion for rotations 0 of the Landolt ring about the visual axis with -2/72/7. By appealing to the basic Proposition 2 of Foster (1972 a), the conclusion is reached that the visual system appears capable of effecting upon a certain centrally located foveal annulus the local 1-parameter group of rotations about the visual axis 0, [–2/7,2/7].  相似文献

Genomic DNA and cDNA encoding the -amylase from the oomycete, Saprolegnia ferax, were cloned into Saccharomyces cerevisiae and analyzed. The Spl. ferax -amylase gene consisted of a 1350 bp open reading frame, encoding a protein of 450 amino acids with a calculated mass of 49353 Da, and was not interrupted by any intron. The deduced amino acid sequence of the -amylase gene had 42% similarity to the -amylase of Arabidopsis thaliana. The -amylase gene was expressed in Sacc. cerevisiae and its product was secreted into the culture medium.  相似文献

The genes were cloned for the two apoprotein subunits, and ,of phycocyanin from the cyanobacterium Spirulina maxima = Arthrospiramaxima) strain F3. The - and -subunit gene-coding regionscontain 489 bp and 519 bp, respectively. The -subunit gene is upstreamfrom the -subunit gene, with a 111-bp segment separating them.Similarities between the -subunits of S. maxima and nine othercyanobacteria were between 58% and 99%, as were those between the -subunits. The maximum similarity between the - and -subunits from S. maxima was 27%.  相似文献

The low-copy-number and broad-host-range pSM19035-derived plasmid pBT233 is stably inherited in Bacillus subtilis cells. Two distinct regions, segA and segB, enhance the segregational stability of the plasmid. Both regions function in a replicon-independent manner. The maximization of random plasmid segregation is accomplished by the recombination proficiency of the host or the presence of the pBT233 segA region. The segA region contains two open reading frames (or) [ and ]. Inactivation or deletion of or results in SegA plasmids. Better than random segregation requires an active segB region. The segB region contains two ors (or and or). Inactivation of either of the orfs does not lead to an increase in cell death, but or plasmids are randomly segregated. These results suggest that pBT233 stabilization relies on a complex system involving resolution of plasmid oligomers (segA) and on the function(s) encoded by the segB region.  相似文献

The conformational properties of the oligosaccharide chain of GM1 ganglioside containingN-glycolyl-neuraminic acid, -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Gc-(2-3)]--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer, were studied through NMR nuclear Overhauser effect investigations on the monomeric ganglioside in dimethylsulfoxide, and on mixed micelles of ganglioside and dodecylphosphocholine in water. Several interresidual contacts for the trisaccharide core--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Gc-(2-3)]--Gal-were found to fix the relative orientitation of the three saccharides, while the glycosidic linkage of the terminal -Gal-was found to be quite mobile as the -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-disaccharide exists in different conformations. These results are similar to those found for two GM1 gangliosides containingN-acetyl-neuraminic acid and neuraminic acid [1].Abbreviations Ganglioside nomenclature is in accordance with Svennerholm [23] and the IUPAC-IUB Recommendations [24] GM3(Neu5Ac) II3Neu5AcLacCer, -Neu5Ac-(2-3)--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer - GM3(Neu5Gc) II3Neu5GcLacCer, -Neu5Gc-(2-3)--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer - GM1(Neu5Ac) II3Neu5AcGgOse4Cer, -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Ac-(2-3)]--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer - GM1(Neu5Gc) II3Neu5GcGgOse4Cer, -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Gc-(2-3)]--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer - GM1(Neu) II3NeuGgOse4Cer, -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu-(2-3)]--Glc-(1-1)-Cer - GD1a IV3Neu5AcII3Neu5AcGgOse4Cer, -Neu5Ac-(2-3)--Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Ac-(2-3)]--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer - GalNAc-GD1a IV4GalNAcIV3Neu5AcII3Neu5AcGgOse4Cer, -GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Ac-(2-3)]--Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Ac-(2-3)]--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer - Neu neuraminic acid - Neu5Ac N-acetyl-neuraminic acid - Neu5Gc N-glycolyl-neuraminic acid - Cer ceramide  相似文献

Limbs of flower buds from Petunia hybrida were investigated for -glucosidase activity with dihydroflavonol-glucosides and 4-methyl-umbelliferyl--D-glucoside as substrates. Dihydroflavonol-glucoside -glucosidase is localized in the cell wall. This activity has an acid pH optimum and is also active toward 4-methyl-umbelliferyl--glucoside. Besides this activity a neutral -glucosidase is present. This activity is soluble and is not active toward dihydroflavonol-glucosides. Using starch gel electrophoresis it was shown that no difference in -glucosidase activity is present between mutants able to convert dihydroflavonols into anthocyanins and mutants accumulating dihydroflavonol-glucosides. It is concluded that -glucosidase activity is not involved in anthocyanin synthesis.Abbreviations 4MU--glc 4-methylumbelliferyl--D-glucopyranoside - dHQ-7-g dihydroquercetin-7-glucoside - dHQ-4-g dihydroquercetin-4-glucoside - dHM-4-g dihydromyricetin-4-glucoside Deceased  相似文献
