Summary Short oligocytidylates can act as templates for the self-condensation of guanosine 5-phosphorimidazolide. In the absence of a catalytic metal ion or in the presence of Pb2+ a noticeable template effect is already observed with the dimer and the yield of long oligomers reaches a plateau with a hexamer template. Short templates give oligomers longers than the template length. The products are predominantly 2-5 linked for the Pb2+-catalyzed reaction while mixed linkages are observed in the uncatalyzed reaction.In the presence of Zn2+, a template effect is first observed with the pentamer and is maximal by the heptamer. The products are predominantly 3-5 linked. Oligomers shorter than or as long as the template are obtained in substantial yield, and longer products in much lower yields.Abbreviations G

The role of -tocopherol uptake system in human erythrocyte in the uptake of plasma -tocopherol has been suggested. However no information is available on -tocopherol uptake activity of human erythrocytes in the presence of high levels of D-glucose which is known to lead to pathological alterations in different cells including human erythrocytes. Therefore, in order to examine the effect of D-glucose on the binding of -tocopherol to human erythrocytes, the binding characteristics of -tocopherol to these cells were established first. Binding of [3H]-tocopherol to human erythrocytes was both saturable and specific. Scatchard analysis of -tocopherol binding to these cells showed the presence of two independent classes of binding sites with widely different affinities. The high affinity binding sites had a dissociation constant (Kd1) of 90 nM with a binding capacity (n1) of 900 sites per cell, whereas the low affinity binding sites had a dissociation constant (Kd2) of 5.2 M and a binding capacity (n2) of 105,400 sites per cell. Trypsin treatment abolished all the -tocopherol binding activity. Competition for the binding of -tocopherol to human erythrocytes was effective with other homologues of -tocopherol (-tocopherol, -tocopherol and -tocopherol) and their potency was almost equal to -tocopherol itself. The order of preference was -tocopherol > -tocopherol -tocopherol -tocopherol. Incubation of human erythrocytes with various concentrations of D-glucose did not affect -tocopherol uptake activity. Our data demonstrate the presence of an -tocopherol uptake system in human erythrocytes and that the -tocopherol uptake activity is not modulated by the presence of D-glucose. 相似文献

Summary The question, Is Hb G Philadelphia linked to -thalassaemia? was first posed because the abnormal haemoglobin is found in heterozygotes at a concentration greater than 25%, the proportion predicted from a 4 -chain gene model. Globin chain biosynthesis was studied in a West Indian family in which one parent had + thalassaemia and the other was heterozygous for the G Philadelphia chain gene. The former had a globin chain production ratio / well above 1, while the latter had a ratio significantly less than 1. One child of the marriage had inherited the + thallassaemia from one parent and the G Philadelphia chain gene from the other and showed the typical picture of /-thalassaemia (/ ratio slightly above normal). It is explained in the discussion that the evidence favours a close linkage of 2 -chain genes. 相似文献

Doubled haploid (DH) progeny from a cross between the scald susceptible barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivar Ingrid and the resistant accession CI 11549 (Nigrinudum) was evaluated for resistance in the pathogen Rhynchosporium secalis (Oudem) J.J. Davis. Two linked and incompletely dominant loci confer resistance CI 11549 against isolate 4004. One is an allele at the complex Rrs1 locus on chromosome 3H close to the centromere; the other is located 22 cM distally on the long arm. The latter locus is designated Rrs4. In BC3-lines into Ingrid from CI 2222 (another Nigrinudum) resistance seems governed by one locus close to the telomeric region of chromosome 7H, probably allelic to Rrs2. In neither case did we find any trace of the recessive gene rh8 reported to be present in Nigrinudum. Various resistance donors of Ethiopian origin designated as Nigrinudum, Jet or Abyssinian were identical to a great extent with respect to markers, but differed in resistance to different isolates of scald or in barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) resistance. The implications for their use as differentials in scald tests and screening of germplasm collections are discussed. 相似文献

A sulfotransferase isolated from the Cyanobacterium Synechococcus 6301 was found to be specific for 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphosulfate (PAPS). The molecular weight of this transferase has been estimated on a Sephadex-G-100 column to be about 58,000. The K
m for PAPS was determined to be 20 M. The pH optimum was 8.0. The thiol dithioerythritol was needed for activity; other thiols such as glutathione, cysteine, or mercaptoethanol did not catalyze this reaction. The transferase, however, could not react directly with the thiol. A heat-stable factor was needed in this reaction. This factor was purified by conventional techniques and its molecular weight was determined on a Sephadex-G-50 column to be about 11,500. The factor showed normal Michaelis-Menten behavior toward the PAPS-sulfotransferase. It has been identified as thioredoxin. The tranferase was inhibited by 3-5-ADP and 2–5-ADP; all other adenine-containing nucleotides such as 2-AMP, 3-AMP, 5-AMP, ADP, and c-AMP did not influence this reaction.Abbreviation PAPS

A chimeric stilbene synthase (sts)gene was transferred into wheat. Stilbene synthases play a role in the defence against fungal diseases in some plant species (e.g. groundnut or grapevine) by producing stilbenetype phytoalexins like resveratrol. Resveratrol is also claimed to have positive effects to human health. Embryogenic scutellar calli derived from immature embryos of the two commercial German spring wheat cultivars Combi and Hanno were used as target tissue for cotransformation by microprojectile delivery. The selectable marker/reporter gene constructs contained the bargene either driven by the ubiquitinpromoter from maize (pAHC 25, also containing the uidAgene driven by the ubiquitinpromoter), or by the actinpromoter (pDM 302) from rice. The cotransferred plasmid pStil 2 consisted of a grapevine stscoding region driven by the ubiquitin promoter. Eight transgenic Combi and one Hanno TOplant were obtained and, except one Combi TOplant, found to be cotransformants due to the integration of both the stsgene and the selectable marker or reporter genes. Expression of the stsgene was proven by RTPCR, and, for the first time, by detection of the stilbene synthase product resveratrol by HPLC and mass spectrometry. The stsgene was expressed in four of the seven transgenic Combi T_oplants. Two of the respective T1progenies segregated in a Mendelian manner were still expressing the gene. Investigations into methylation of the stsgene showed that in three nonexpressing progenies inactivation was paralleled by methylation. 相似文献

The structures of the N-linked sugar chains in the PAS-6 glycoprotein (PAS-6) from the bovine milk fat globule membrane were determined. The sugar chains were liberated from PAS-6 by hydrazinolysis, and the pyridylaminated sugar chains were separated into a neutral (6N) and two acidic chains (6M and 6D), the acidic sugar chains then being converted to neutral sugar chains (6MN and 6DN). 6N was separated into two neutral fractions (6N13 and 6N5.5), while 6MN and 6DN each gave a single fraction (6MN13 and 6DN13). The structure of 6N5.5, which was the major sugar chain in PAS-6, is proposed to be Man16 (Man13) Man14GlcNAc14GlcNAc-PA; 6N13, 6MN13 and 6DN13 are proposed to be Gal13Gal14GlcNAc12Man16 (Gal13Gal14GlcNAc12Man13) Man14GlcNAc14 (Fuc16)GlcNAc-PA;6M and 6D had 1 or 2 additional NeuAc residues at the non-reducing ends of 6MN13 and 6DN13, respectively. © 1998 Rapid Science Ltd 相似文献

Novel O-serotypes were revealed among Pseudomonas syringae pv. garcae strains by using a set of mouse monoclonal antibodies specific to the lipopolysaccharide O-polysaccharide. Structural studies showed that the O-polysaccharide of P. syringae pv. garcae NCPPB 2708 is a hitherto unknown linear L-rhamnan lacking strict regularity and having two oligosaccharide repeating units I and II, which differ in the position of substitution in one of the rhamnose residues and have the following structures: I:3)--L Rha (12)-- L Rha (12)--L-Rha-(13)--L Rha (1;II: 2)--L-Rha-(13) -L-Rha-(12)--L-Rha-(13)--L Rha (1.The branched O-polysaccharides of P. syringae pv. garcae ICMP 8047 and NCPPB 588T have the same L-rhamnan backbone with repeating units I and II and a lateral chain of 14)- or 13)-linked residues of 3-acetamido-3,6-dideoxy-D-galactose (D-Fuc3NAc). Several monoclonal antibody epitopes associated with the L-rhamnan backbone or the lateral -D-Fuc3NAc residues were characterized.Translated from Mikrobiologiya, Vol. 73, No. 6, 2004, pp. 777–789.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Ovod, Zdorovenko, Shashkov, Kocharova, Knirel. 相似文献

Summary Inheritance of ability to form callus in rice anther culture was studied using the diallel technique. Anthers containing uninucleate microspores from two japonica cultivais (Minehikari and Taipei 309), two indica cultivars (Mingolo and Suweon 290), and 12 F1's of the diallel crosses involving these four parents were cultured on Chaleffs R2 medium and evaluated for callus induction. The parents showed significant differences in anther callus formation, from 41.9% (Taipei 309) to 0% (Suweon 290). Callus induction ability was inherited as a recessive character conditioned by a single block of genes. Additive gene effects were predominant. The japonica types seemed to be good combiners for callus induction. The order of dominance among the four parents was Suweon 290, Mingolo, Minehikari and Taipei 309. 相似文献

Summary The inheritance of resistance to brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stol.), of 20 rice cultivars was studied. Single dominant genes that are allelic to Bph 3 condition the resistance in cultivars Ptb 19, Gangala (Acc. 7733), Gangala (Acc. 15207), Horana Mawee, Kuruhondarwala, Mudu Kiriyal and Muthumanikam. Single recessive genes that are allelic to bph 4 govern the resistance in cultivars Gambada Samba, Heenhoranamawee, Hotel Samba, Kahata Samba, Kalukuruwee, Lekam Samba, Senawee, Sulai, Thirissa and Vellai Illankali. The resistance in Ptb 33, Sudu Hondarwala, and Sinna Sivappu is governed by one dominant and one recessive gene which segregate independently of each other. The dominant resistance genes in these cultivars appear allelic to either Bph 1 or Bph 3. Similarly, the recessive genes in these cultivars seem allelic to either bph 2 or bph 4. Further investigations are needed to conclusively determine the allelic relationships of resistance genes in Ptb 33, Sudu Hondarwala and Sinna Sivappu. 相似文献

In floating rice, stem elongation begins much earlier than in non-floating rice, which is the major survival mechanism for flooding. Inheritance of this early elongation ability was studied using diallel and quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses. The diallel analysis was undertaken using a set of 6×6 half-diallel crosses involving four floating (Goai, Habiganj Aman VIII, Badal 106, and Oryza rufipogon strain W120) and two non-floating (Latisail and Patnai 23) parents. The additive gene effects were higher than the dominant effects. The dominant alleles were concentrated in the cultivated floating parents (Goai, Habiganj Aman VIII, and Badal 106), whereas the recessive alleles were in the wild floating parent (W120). A QTL analysis using a Patnai 23 × Goai F2 population detected two putative QTLs. Of these QTLs, the one on chromosome 12 behaved as a partially dominant major gene that explained more than half of the total genetic variation.Communicated by D.J. Mackill 相似文献

1,3-Fucosyltransferase solubilized from human liver has been purified 40 000-fold to apparent homogeneity by a multistage process involving cation exchange chromatography on CM-Sephadex, hydrophobic interaction chromatography on Phenyl Sepharose, affinity chromatography on GDP-hexanolamine Sepharose and HPLC gel exclusion chromatography. The final step gave a major protein peak that co-chromatographed with 1,3-fucosyltransferase activity and had a specific activity of 5–6 µmol min–1 mg–1 and anM
r 44 000 deduced from SDS-PAGE and HPLC analysis. The purified enzyme readily utilized Gal1-4GlcNAc, NeuAc2-3Gal1-4GlcNAc and Fuc1-2Gal1-4GlcNAc, with a preference for sialylated and fucosylated Type 2 acceptors. Fuc1-2Gal1-4Glc and the Type 1 compound Gal1-3GlcNAc were very poor acceptors and no incorporation was observed with NeuAc2-6Gal1-4GlcNAc. A polyclonal antibody raised against the liver preparation reacted with the homologous enzyme and also with the blood group Lewis gene-associated 1,3/1,4-fucosyltransferase purified from the human A431 epidermoid carcinoma cell line. No cross reactivity was found with 1,3-fucosyltransferase(s) isolated from myeloid cells. Examination by Northern blot analysis of mRNA from normal liver and from the HepG2 cell line, together with a comparison of the specificity pattern of the purified enzyme with that reported for the enzyme expressed in mammalian cells transfected with theFuc-TVI cDNA, suggests a provisional identification ofFuc-TVI as the major 1,3-fucosyltransferase gene expressed in human liver.Died June, 1991 相似文献

Two fluorescent derivatives of substance P (SP) (Arg-Pro-Lys-Pro-Gln-Gln-Phe-Phe-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2) were prepared by chemical modification of the native peptide by pyridoxal-5-phosphate (pyridoxal-P). The formation of both pyridoxal-P-derivatives of SP is the result of one modification procedure. The determination of the amino acid composition showed that in one of the derivatives the -amino group of the Lys residue [-(P-pxy)-SP] and in the other the -amino group of the Lys residue and also the N-terminal amino group [,-di-(P-pxy)-SP] of SP had been substituted by pyridoxal-P. -(P-pxy)-SP and ,-di-(P-pxy)-SP have spasmogenic activity with ED50 of 1.8×10–9 and 4×10–9 M, respectively, tested on isolated guinea pig ileum. The fluorescence of P-pxy residues permits detection of as little as 1 pmol/ml of -(P-pxy)-SP and 0.5 pmol/ml of ,-di-(P-pxy)-SP. Both analogues of SP obtained are degraded by human plasma more slowly than the native peptide.Abbreviations SP

Four glycosidases were analyzed in 10 mm apical segments prepared from growing roots (15 mm) of Zea mays L. The pH optima were found to be 5.8 for -glucosidase, 4.4 for -galactosidase, 6.4 for -glucosidase and 6.0 for -galactosidase. The -glucosidase showed 4-fold higher activity than the -galactosidase. The distribution of the -glucosidase activity was signifcantly different from that of the -galactosidase, -glucosidase and -galactosidase.Abbreviations -Glu

Rhizopus is a zygomycetous genus. Several species of this taxon may infect humans and lower animals. Seventeen isolates ofRhizopus species in three distinct morphological groups were studied: the stolonifer group (sporangiophores greater than 1 mm in height, sporangial diameters of 100–275 µm, branched rhizoids); the arrhizus group (sporangiophores greater than 1 mm in height, branched rhizoids, sporangial diameters of 100–240 µm); and the microsporus group (sporangiophores less than 0.8 mm in height, sporangial diameters less than 100 µm, simple rhizoids). Maximal growth temperatures were characteristic: the stolonifer group grew at 30°C, the arrhizus group grew at 36°C, and the microsporus group grew at 45°C. The DNA mol% G + C base composition of all isolates ranged from 34.9 to 40.2% Species within the three groups were grouped by DNA differences. The arrhizus group was most distinctive with a value of 34.9–36.3%; the stolonifer and microsporus groups had G + C values of 37.0–39.3% and 37.8–40.2%, respectively. Our research clarifies and defines the G-C values of the three important groups ofRhizopus species. 相似文献

Summary The constuction of two fused genes is described. One involves the in-frame fusion of the yeast prepro--factor coding sequence, and the Escherichia coli lac Z gene. The second gene fusion utilizes a 103 bp yeast invertase NH2-terminal coding sequence at the fusion junction of the hybrid gene described above. The gene fusions, under the control of the -factor promoter, expressed active -galactosidase in haploid yeast cells. The activity could be regulated in a temperature-sensitive sir3 mutant. The incorporation of the invertase coding sequence at the MF1-lacZ fusion junction provided significantly higher levels of -galactosidase activity. A substantial quantity of the hybrid proteins generated from the gene fusions was primarily localized in the intracellular membranes of yeast cells, while a processed form could be secreted into the periplasm.A portion of this work appeared in Biotechnology Progress (Das and Shultz 1986) as proceedings of the symposium on Industrial Scale Protein Purification, held at the annual meeting of the Institute of Chemical Engineers in Miami Beach, Fla, USA on November 4, 1986 相似文献

Mild cerebral anoxic/ischemic/stress insults promote tolerance and thereby protect the brain from subsequent lethal anoxic/ischemic insults. We examined whether specific activation of PKC , , , or isoforms is associated with ischemic preconditioning (IPC) in rat brain. IPC was produced by a 2-minute global cerebral ischemia. Membrane and cytosolic fractions of the hippocampi were immunoblotted using specific antibodies for PKC, , , and . PKC showed a significant translocation to the membrane fraction from 30 min to 4 h and PKC at 4 h following IPC. In contrast, the membrane/cytosol ratio of PKC showed a tendency to decrease at 30 min and 8 h, and the membrane/cytosol ratio of PKC was significantly decreased from 30 min to 24 h following IPC. These findings indicate PKC isoform-specific membrane translocations in the hippocampus after brief global brain ischemia and suggest that activation of PKC and PKC may be associated with IPC-induced tolerance in the rat hippocampus. 相似文献

Summary Thirteen spontaneously occurring chlorophyll deficient phenotypes have been described and their genetic basis was established. Ten of these — white, white tipped green, patchy white, white virescent, white striping 1, white striping 2, white striping 4, fine striping, chlorina and yellow virescent showed monogenic recessive inheritance and the remaining three — yellow striping, yellow green and light green seedling phenotypes showed digenic recessive inheritance. The genes for (i) white tipped green (wr) and yellow virescent (yv) and (ii) patchy white (pw) and white striping 1 (wst 1) showed independent assortment. Further, the genes for white (w), white tipped green (wr) and yellow virescent (yv) were inherited independently of the gene for hairy leaf margin (Hm).In the mutants — white tipped green, patchy white, white striping 1, white striping 2, fine striping, chlorina, yellow virescent, yellow striping, yellow green and light green phenotypes total quantity of chlorophyll was significantly less than that in the corresponding controls, while in white virescent there was no reduction in the mature stage. For nine of the mutants the quantity of chlorophyll was also estimated in F1's (mutant x control green). In F1's of six of the mutants — white tip, patchy white, chlorina, yellow virescent, fine striping and yellow striping the quantity of chlorophyll was almost equal to the wild type. In the F1's of three of the mutants — white striping 1, white striping 2 and light green an intermediate value between the mutant and wild types was observed. In yellow virescent retarded synthesis of chlorophyll, particularly chlorophyll a was observed in the juvenile stage. Reduced quantity of chlorophyll was associated with defective chloroplasts. In the mutants — white tipped green, white virescent, fine striping, chlorina, yellow striping, yellow green and light green defective plastids were also observed. In patchy white secondary destruction of chlorophylls and the presence of defective plastids were found to be associated with reduced chlorophyll quantity at maturity.Paper chromatographic studies of leaf flavonoids revealed some variation between the inbreds, but there were three common spots, 7, 8 and 9, except for PDP in which the spot 8 was absent. Chlorophyll deficient mutants differed from their respective controls in the absence of one or more of the spots present in the controls and in the presence of new spots in some of the mutants.Most of the chlorophyll mutants showed higher survival rate in the Kharif season than in Rabi season which was attributed to the higher mean day temperature and longer day light period in the Kharif season than in Rabi season. 相似文献

Nucellar explants from the immature fruit of Ataulfo mango, 3–4 cm long, were used. The process had a very low efficiency (<10%); however, Ataulfo was more embryogenic than other cultivars such as Tommy Atkins or Haden in our hands. Overall, the process from nucellus to plantlet stage took 5 months. Twelve regenerated plants were obtained and are currently growing in the greenhouse. They appear to be normal and free of abnormalities. Some biochemical and molecular tests are currently being carried out. 相似文献
