链霉菌139能够产生一种全新的胞外多糖——依博素(139A),该多糖体内具有显著抗类风湿性关节炎活性。其生物合成基因簇(GenBank Accession Number:AYl31229)已被鉴定约31.3kb,包含22个开放阅读框(ste1—ste22)。以pET-30a为载体,克隆并在大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)中进行了ste6基因的表达,对该基因的克隆、表达与性质进行了研究。亲和层析法证实,纯化后重组蛋白具有催化UDP-葡萄糖脱氢变成UDP-葡萄糖醛酸的活性。这表明ste6编码产物是葡萄糖脱氢酶。为了证实ste6基因与依博素生物合成的关系,采用单交换基因破坏策略构建了ste6基因阻断突变株。结果初步显示ste6和依博素生物合成相关。 相似文献

从水稻中分离克隆出一个双功能激酶(OsSTY)基因,它编码一个含417个氨基酸的蛋白,其分子量为45926Da,等电点为7.689。OsSTY参与多种胁迫条件下的信号传导途径。低温或高温(4℃和37℃)处理后,OsSTY激酶的表达显著提高。机械损伤、水杨酸、乙烯等处理也促进该基因转录。另外,0sSTY基因在酿酒酵母(Saccharomyces cerevisiae)ste7基因缺失株(ste7/ste7)中的异源表达能够抑制该菌株在氮源饥饿条件下假菌丝生长的缺陷。Ste7是酿酒酵母的一个丝氨酸/苏氨酸/酪氨酸双功能激酶,它与OsSTY的激酶功能域有32%的同源性和50%的相似性。这揭示出OsSTY激酶能够校正,至少能部分地校正酿酒酵母ste7基因缺失株的假菌丝生长缺陷。 相似文献

Susceptibility of laboratory and field colonies of Helicoverpa zea (Boddie) and Heliothis virescens F. to Vip3A insecticidal protein was studied in diet incorporation and diet overlay assays from 2004 to 2008. Responses of field populations were compared to paired responses of University of Arkansas laboratory susceptible H. zea (LabZA) and H. virescens (LabVR) colonies. After 7 d of exposure, observations were made on number of dead larvae (M) and the number of larvae alive but remaining as first instars (L1). Regression estimates using M (LC50) and M plus L1 (MIC50) data were developed for laboratory and field populations. Susceptibility of laboratory and field populations exposed to Vip3A varied among different batches of protein used over the study period. Within the same batch of Vip3A protein, susceptibilities of laboratory colonies of both species (LabZA and LabVR) were similar. Field colonies were significantly more susceptible to Vip3A than the respective reference colonies of both species. Within field populations, susceptibility to Vip3A varied up to 75-fold in H. zea and 132-fold in H. virescens in LC50 estimates. Variabilities in MIC50s were up to 59- and 11-fold for H. zea and H. virescens, respectively. 相似文献

To evaluate the roles of blaIMP and blaTEM genes in the resistance of Serratia marcescens against beta-lactams and to find the spreading ways of these genes, 19 clinical isolates of imipenem-resistant Serratia marcescens were analyzed. Six strains bore blaIMP and blaTEM genes on a single plasmid, as confirmed by transferring resistance determinants via conjugation and transformation, and by detecting bla genes with PCR analysis. The six strains showed two different genomic patterns on pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. All the transconjugants and transformants gained high-level resistance to ampicillin, cephalexin, cefoxitin and cefotaxime, and showed a reduced susceptibility to imipenem, but maintained full susceptibility to aztreonam. In addition, the expressions of blaIMP and blaTEM genes were constitutive, either in Serratia marcescens clinical isolates or in their transconjugants and transformants. These findings may explain the rapid spread of the above resistance determinants among Enterobacteriaceae via transmissible plasmids in the clinical setting. 相似文献

Although the activation of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in ras-transformed cells has been well documented, the mechanisms underlying this activation are poorly understood. In this study we tried to elucidate whether the membrane phospholipid composition and physical state influence the activity of membrane-associated PLA2 in ras-transformed fibroblasts. For this purpose membranes from non-transfected and ras-transfected NIH 3T3 fibroblasts were enriched with different phospholipids by the aid of partially purified lipid transfer protein. The results showed that of all tested phospholipids only phosphatidylcholine (PC) increased PLA2 activity in the control cells, whereas in their transformed counterparts both PC and phosphatidic acid (PA) induced such effect. Further we investigated whether the activatory effect was due only to the polar head of these phospholipids, or if it was also related to their acyl chain composition. The results demonstrated that the arachidonic acid-containing PC and PA molecules induced a more pronounced increase of membrane-associated PLA2 activity in ras-transformed cells compared to the corresponding palmitatestearate- or oleate- containing molecular species. However, we did not observe any specific effect of the phospholipid fatty acid composition in non-transformed NIH 3T3 fibroblasts. In ras-transformed cells incubated with increasing concentrations of arachidonic acid, PLA2 activity was altered in parallel with the changes of the cellular content of this fatty acid. The role of phosphatidic and arachidonic acids as specific activators of PLA2 in ras-transformed cells is discussed with respect to their possible role in the signal transduction pathways as well as in the processes of malignant transformation of cells. 相似文献

蛹虫草是一种药食两用真菌,具有与冬虫夏草相似的功能,且富硒能力较强。本研究通过大量的人工栽培试验,旨在探究不同浓度Na_2SeO_4对新疆本地蛹虫草子实体生长的影响。试验表明,质量浓度为20 mg/L的Na_2SeO_4对蛹虫草的生长不产生显著影响,但蛹虫草各项生物学指标均随着培养基中外源Na_2SeO_4浓度的增加而呈下降趋势,说明随着外源Na_2SeO_4浓度的增加会对蛹虫草的生长产生抑制效应,当外源Na_2SeO_4质量浓度达到200 mg/L时,生产的蛹虫草已不具备商品价值。由此可见,20 mg/L的质量浓度是以Na_2SeO_4为硒源进行蛹虫草富硒研究的安全浓度。该研究为富硒产品开发寻找新的硒源开辟了新思路,为新疆地区进一步大规模栽培富硒蛹虫草提供一定的参考,但是对以Na_2SeO_4为硒源的最佳富硒浓度还有待于进一步研究。 相似文献

O3 concentrations in the troposphere are rising and those in the stratosphere decreasing, the latter resulting in higher fluxes of solar ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation to the earth's surface. We assessed whether the fluxes of CO2 and CH4 are altered by enhanced UV-B radiation or elevated tropospheric O3 concentrations in boreal peatland microcosms (core depth 40 cm, diameter 10.5 cm) with different vegetation cover. At the end of the UV-B experiment which lasted for a growing season, net CO2 exchange (NEE) and dark ecosystem respiration (R TOT) were sevenfold higher, and CH4 efflux 12-fold higher, in microcosms with intact vegetation dominated by Eriophorum vaginatum L. and Sphagnum spp., compared to microcosms from which we removed E. vaginatum. Vegetation treatment had minor effects on CH4 production and consumption potentials in the peat, suggesting that the large difference in CH4 efflux is mainly due to efficient CH4 transport via the aerenchyma of E. vaginatum. Ambient UV-B supplemented with 30% and elevated O3 concentrations (100 and 200 ppb, for 7 weeks) significantly increased R TOT in both vegetation treatments. Elevated O3 concentrations reduced NEE over time, while UV-B had no clear effects on the fluxes of CO2 or CH4 in the cloudy summer of the study. Field experiments are needed to assess the significance of increasing UV-B radiation and elevated tropospheric O3 concentration on peatland gas exchange in the long-term. 相似文献

An open reading frame of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Aeropyrum pernix K1 APE2325, which composed of 474 bases, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) Codon Plus-RIL. The recombinant protein was purified by Ni-chelation affinity chromatography. It showed a single band with a molecular mass of 18kDa in SDS-PAGE. The purified enzyme exhibited both phospholipase A(2) and esterase activities with the optimal catalytic temperature at 90 degrees C. The enzyme activity was Ca(2+)-independent. Kinetic analysis revealed its Km, k cat, and Vm for the p-nitrophenyl propionate substrate were 103microM, 39s(-1), and 249micromol/min/mg, respectively. The recombinant protein was thermostable and its half-life at 100 degrees C was about 1h. 相似文献

To study the modulation of the reductive metabolism of halothane (2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane) by microsomal cytochrome b5, formation of 2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane (CTE) and 2-chloro-1,1-difluoroethylene (CDE), major reduced metabolites of halothane, was analyzed in vivo and in vitro. Rats were pretreated with both malotilate (diisopropyl-1,3-dithiol-2-ylidenemalonate) and sodium phenobarbital (malotilate-treated rats) or only with sodium phenobarbital (control rats). The microsomes of malotilate-treated rats had significantly more cytochrome b5 than the controls, whereas the cytochrome P-450 content was not different between the two groups. At the end of 2-h exposure to 1% halothane in 14% oxygen, the ratio of CDE to CTE in arterial blood was significantly higher in malotilate-treated rats than in the controls. Under anaerobic conditions, the formation of CDE and the ratio of CDE to CTE were significantly greater in microsomal preparations of malotilate-treated rats than those of the controls. In a reconstituted system containing cytochrome P-450PB purified from rabbit liver, addition of cytochrome b5 to the system enhanced the formation of CDE and increased the ratio of CDE to CTE. These results suggested that cytochrome b5 enhances the formation ratio of CDE to CTE by stimulating the supply of a second electron to cytochrome P-450, which might reduce radical reactions in the reductive metabolism of halothane. 相似文献

Putative tumor suppressor Lats2 induces apoptosis through downregulation of Bcl-2 and Bcl-x(L) 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Lats2, also known as Kpm, is the second mammalian member of the novel Lats tumor suppressor gene family. Recent studies have demonstrated that Lats2 negatively regulates the cell cycle by controlling G1/S and/or G2/M transition. To further understand the role of Lats2 in the control of human cancer development, we have expressed the protein in human lung cancer cells by transduction of a replication-deficient adenovirus expressing human Lats2 (Ad-Lats2). Using a variety of techniques, including Annexin V uptake, cleavage of PARP, and DNA laddering, we have demonstrated that the ectopic expression of human Lats2 induced apoptosis in two lung cancer cell lines, A549 and H1299. Caspases-3, 7, 8, and 9 were processed in the Ad-Lats2-transduced cells; however, it was active caspase-9, not caspase-8, that initiated the caspase cascade. Inhibitors specific to caspase-3 and 9 delayed the onset of Lats2-mediated apoptosis. Western blot analysis revealed that anti-apoptotic proteins, BCL-2 and BCL-x(L), but not the pro-apoptotic protein, BAX, were downregulated in Ad-Lats2-transduced human lung cancer cells. Overexpression of either Bcl-2 or Bcl-x(L) in these cells lead to the suppression of Lats2-mediated caspase cleavage and apoptosis. These results show that Lats2 induces apoptosis through downregulating anti-apoptotic proteins, BCL-2 and BCL-x(L), in human lung cancer cells. 相似文献
