Changes in body temperature (Tb) and feeding were characterized in unrestrained rats following the micro-injection into the anterior hypothalamic preoptic area (AH/POA) of macrophage inflammatory protein-1 (MIP-1), MIP-1 or MIP-1. After the rats recovered from the stereotaxic implantation of a single guide tube placed in the AH/POA, either one of the MIP-1 compounds or control CSF was micro-injected in a volume of 1.0 l into this area. Changes in body temperature (Tb) and food and water intakes were monitored throughout each experiment. When micro-injected into the AH/POA in a dose of 28 or 280 pg, doublet MIP-1 and MIP-1 evoked a monophasic fever which increased above baseline to a mean maximum of 2.17±0.14°C and 2.1±0.24°C, respectively. MIP-1 micro-injected similarly evoked a biphasic fever, with the Tb declining transiently at the 30 min point 0.4°C lower than the congruent rises in Tb evoked by doublet MIP-1 or MIP-1. The secondary rise in Tb induced by MIP-1 had a latency of 1.5–2.0 hrs and reached a maximum of 1.56±0.16°C. Although all three cytokines significantly attentuated the rats' mean intake of food during the 24 hr interval after their micro-injection into the AH/POA, doublet MIP-1 exerted the most potent anorexic effect in comparison to that of the saline control rats. However, neither body weight nor intake of water was altered significantly by the three cytokines. These results demonstrate a functional distinction between the febrile actions of MIP-1 and MIP-1 on cells of the AH/POA. It is envisaged that MIP-1 underlies the initial phase of a pyrogen-induced fever, whereas MIP-1 could mediate the secondary phase of a biphasic fever. Clearly, the localized elevation of either MIP-1 or MIP-1 in the AH/POA perturbs the neuronal mechanism underlying the set-point for body temperature. Thus, both MIP-1 and MIP-1 could play a functional role in the pathological events occurring in neurons of the AH/POA in response to an endotoxin or other pyrogen challenge.  相似文献

Competitive hierarchies in marine benthic communities   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
James F. Quinn 《Oecologia》1982,54(1):129-135
Summary Patterns of competitive displacement by over-growth were examined in communities of sessile organisms in the low intertidal zone at three sites in Washington state and Alaska. Cruotose invertebrates and algae can be arranged into a hierarchy such that species of lower competitive rank rarely overgrow any higher ranking species. Erect and solitary species show a wide range of competitive abilities, but whether they fall into a strict hierarchy is unknown. Few of the solitary or erect species occupy substantial amounts of space in the communities examined.An approximate competitive hierarchy is well established in middle to high intertidal areas dominated by mussels, fleshy algae, and barncles, and has been an important concept in developing both an intuitive understanding and specific mathematical models of the dynamics of benthic marine communities. In particular, lower ranking species in such communities are thought to depend upon predation or chronic disturbance to the dominants to avoid competitive displacement. An alternative viewpoint, proposed on the basis of nonstransitive competitive relationships observed in cryptic encrusting communities on the undersides of coral plates, is that specific competitive loops or networks allow the coexistence of a number of competitors. Although the growth forms and higher taxa represented in the low intertidal bear some similarity to those in the cryptic coral reef community, there is little evidence of ecologically important competitive loops in the intertidal. A reanalysis of data from cryptic reef communities suggests that they also do not depart substantially from a competitive hierarchy, although there appear to be many more cases of local reversals in the outcome of competition. It is suggested that the ecological importance of departures from a strict hierarchy depends upon the competitive rankings of the participants, with departures involving competitively dominant species likely to contribute much more to community structure than those involving opportunistic species.  相似文献

Fifty-seven species of hermatypic corals have been maintained and grown in high-nutrient seawater at the Waikiki Aquarium, Honolulu, Hawaii. In this study we document the chemical conditions of aquarium water in terms of dissolved nutrients and carbon. Aquarium water is characterized by concentrations of inorganic nutrients that are high relative to most natural reef ecosystems: SiO3 200 M; PO4 0.6 M; NO3 5 M; NH4 2 M. In contrast, concentrations of organic nutrients are lower than most tropical surface ocean waters: DOP 0.1 M and DON 4 M. The incoming well-water servicing the facility has low pH, crating over-saturation of carbon dioxide. The coral communities in aquaria took up inorganic nutrients and released organic nutrients. Rates of nutrient uptake into aquaria coral communities were similar to nutrient uptake by natural reef communities. Coral growth rates were near the upper rates reported from the field, demonstrating corals can and do flourish in relatively high-nutrient water. The growth of corals does not appear to be inhibited at concentrations of nitrogen up to 5 M. Statements implying that corals can only grow in low nutrient oligotrophic seawater are therefore oversimplifications of processes that govern growth of these organisms. Some basic guidelines are given for maintenance of coral communities in aquaria.  相似文献

We have proposed that the cytotoxic action of Alzheimers amyloid beta protein might be initiated by the interaction with the neuronal cell membrane, and subsequent formation of toxic ion channels. Consequently, AP toxicity can be explained on the basis of harmful ion fluxes across AP channels. The conformation of AP in membranes is not known. However, several models suggests that a transmembrane annular polymeric structure is responsible for the ion channel properties of the membrane-bound AP. To identify that portion of the AP molecule making up the conducting pore we have hypothesized that the region of the AP sequence in the vicinity of the hypothetical pore might interact with complementary regions in the adjacent AP subunits. We have further hypothesized that an interaction by a peptide segment would block AP conductance. To test this hypothesis we synthesized peptides that encompass the histidine dyad (H-H) previously hypothesized to line the pore. We report here that peptides designed to most closely match the proposed pore are, in fact, the most effective at blocking ion currents through the membrane-incorporated AP channel. As previously shown for Zn2+ blockade, peptide blockade is also asymmetric. The results also provide additional evidence for the asymmetric insertion of the AP molecules into lipid membranes, and give support to the concept that rings of histidines line the entry to one side of the AP pore.  相似文献

Zusammenfassung 1. Die hormonale Beeinflußbarkeit der Farbbevorzugung von Feuerwebern(Euplectes orix franciscanus) wurde im Funktionskreis des Nahrungserwerbs in simultanen Vierfachwahlversuchen bei insgesamt 48 Tieren getestet. Dabei stand den Tieren die arteigene Farbe Rot neben drei Fremdfarben zur Wahl. Es wurden insgesamt 4 Versuchsserien durchgeführt.2. In der ersten Versuchsserie testete ich die Vögel während der Fortpflanzungszeit. Die Geschlechter reagierten auf die arteigene Farbe verschieden. Rot wurde nur von den eindeutig bevorzugt.3. Während der Ruhezeit änderte sich das Verhalten gegenüber den Farben nicht. Von den wurde Rot auch jetzt eindeutig bevorzugt, die zeigten dagegen keine Präferenz für Rot.4. , die während der Paarungszeit mit Testoviron behandelt wurden, bevorzugten ebenfalls die rote Farbe. Der geringere Prozentsatz an Rotwahlen erklärt sich aus einem anfänglichen Aggressionsverhalten, das vielleicht durch Hypermaskulinisierung bedingt ist. — Die Östradiol-injizierten verhielten sich den Farben gegenüber nicht anders als die unbehandelten Geschlechtsgenossen.5. Wurden während der Ruhezeit mit weiblichen Hormonen behandelt, so erlosch die Sensibilität für die rote Farbe. — Behandlung mit männlichem Hormon zeitigte bei den keine Änderung im Verhalten den farbigen Futterkästchen gegenüber.
Summary 1. Males and females ofEuplectes orix franciscanus (altogether 48 specimes) were tested whether or not under different hormonal conditions they prefer a colour characterizing the plumage of the male. The birds had to choose between 4 colours, one of which corresponded to the red plumage of the male.2. At first the animals were tested during the breeding season. The reaction of both sexes was different. On the average only the males preferred red.3. The males were also attracted by the red colour in the non-breeding season. The females did not show any preference of red.4. When treated with testoviron during the breeding season, the males preferred red as did the untreated males. However, the percentage of red-choices is lower. This is possibly caused by some sort of a hypermasculinisation. — The females injected with estradiol showed no change in their reaction to different colours.5. The sensibility to the red colour in males became extinct when the birds were treated with estradiol during the non-breeding season. — Treatment with male hormones did not change the reaction of the females.

T-cell clones expressing the T-cell receptor (Tcr) were generated from peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) and from a thymus sample. In the panel of ten thymus-derived clones, four Tcr phenotypes [as defined by the reaction of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed against known V and V regions] were identified. All the clones lacked expression of the V3 V region, while seven clones were V1+ . V1 was found in combination with V9 or with undefined VVregions. In addition, two other Tcr phenotypes were identified on these clones: V9+ V1 V3 and V9 V1 V3 One of the clones expressed CD4 and another was CD8positive. The remaining clones were CD4 CD8. In the panel of 76 PBL-derived, Tcr-bearing clones, five Tcr phenotypes could be identified. In contrast to the thymus-derived clones, 30% of the clones were V3+ whereas V1 was expressed by a minority of the clones only. One clone was CD4-positive and approximately 30% of the clones were CD8-positive. Four of the five mAb-defined Tcr phenotypes could be identified on both thymus and PBL-derived T-cell clones. However, biochemical analysis of the Tcrs demonstrates differences in the usage of Ct- and C2-encoded y chains by T cells derived from the thymus and PBLs. The results therefore indicate that, at the clonal level, similarities and differences exist between the Tcr repertoires expressed in the thymus and by PBLs. Furthermore, they indicate that combinatorial Tcr heterogeneity is larger than has so far been described. The receptor diversity, combined with the potential of Tcr+ cells to express CD4 or CD8, indicates that these cells are a heterogeneous population that might mediate a number of immune functions.  相似文献

Endo--galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.103) ofBacteroides fragilis, at 250 mU ml–1, did not cleave the internal galactosidic linkage of the linear radiolabelled trisaccharide GlcNAc1-6Gal1-4GlcNAc, or those of the tetrasaccharides Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6Gal1-4GlcNAc and Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6Gal1-4Glc. The isomeric glycans which contained the GlcNAc1-3Gal1-4GlcNAc/Glc sequence were readily cleaved.Abbreviations GlcNAc 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-glucose - Lact lactose - MT maltotriose - MTet maltotetraose - R MTet chromatographic migration rate in relation to that of maltotetraose  相似文献

Data are presented to evaluate further the abundance/biomass comparison method for the detection of pollution disturbance in marine benthic communities. The results suggest that this technique cannot be used in estuarine intertidal communities. The grossly polluted configurations appeared under unpolluted conditions, while undisturbed patterns were found under polluted conditions. The results support similar conclusions by BEUKEMA (1988) for the intertidal flats of the Dutch Wadden Sea.Communication nr. 497 of the Delta Institute for Hydrobiological Research, Yerseke.  相似文献

The galactosyltransferase, GalT-4, which catalyses the biosynthesisin vitro of neolactotetraosylceramide, nLcOse4Cer (Gal1-4GleNAc1-3Gal1-4Glc-Cer) from lactotriaosylceramide, LcOse3Cer (GlcNAc1-3Gal1-4Glc-Cer), and UDP-galactose has been purified 107 500-fold from a mineral oil induced mouse T-lyphoma P-1798, using affinity columns. The purified enzyme is partially stabilized in the presence of phospholipid liposomes. Two closely migrating protein bands of apparent molecular weights 56 kDa and 63 kDa were observed after sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of highly purified mouse GalT-4. These two protein bands, when subjected to limited proteolysis, resulted in three peptides with identical mobilities indicating amino acid sequence identity between the proteins. Both protein bands from P-1798 gave a positive immunostain when tested with polyclonal antibody against bovine lactose synthetase (UDP-Gal:Glc 4-galactosyltransferase) following Western blot analysis on nitrocellulose paper. The enzyme has a pH optimum between 6.5 and 7.0 and like all other galactosyltransferases, GalT-4 has absolute requirements for divalent cation (Mn2+). TheK m values for the substrate LcOse3Cer and donor UDP-galactose are 110 and 250 µm, respectively. Substrate competition studies with LcOse3Cer and either asialo-agalacto-1-acid glycoprotein orN-acetylglucosamine revealed that these reactions might be catalysed by the same protein. The only other glycolipid which showed acceptor activity toward the purified GalT-4 was iLcOse5Cer (GlcNAc1-1-3Gal1-4Lc3), the precursor for polylactosamine antigens. However, competition studies with these two active substrates using the most purified enzyme fraction, revealed that these two reactions might be catalysed by two different proteins since the experimental values were closer to the theoretical values calculated for two enzymes. Interestingly however, it seems that the GalT-4 from P-1798 has an absolute requirement for anN-acetylglucosamine residue in the substrate since the lyso-derivative (GlcNH21-3Gal1-4Glc-sphingosine) of the acceptor glycolipid LcOse3Cer is completely inactive as substrate while theK m andV max of the reacetylated substrate (GlcNac1-3Gal1-4Glc-acetylsphingosine) was comparable with LcOse3Cer. Autoradiography of the radioactive product formed by purified P-1798 GalT-4 confirmed the presence of nLcOse4Cer, as the product cochromatographed with authentic glycolipid. The monoclonal antibody IB-2, specific for nLcOse4Cer, also produced a positive immunostained band on TLC as well as giving a positive ELISA when tested with radioactive product obtained using a highly purified enzyme from mouse P-1798 T-lymphoma.Abbreviations EDTA ethylenediamine tetraacetate - ME -mercaptoethanol - PEG polyethylene glycol - PBS phosphate buffered saline - Suc sucrose - Mn2+ manganese - Gal galactose - GlcNAc N-acetylglucosamine - UDP-Gal Uridine diphosphate galactose - Ab antibody - SDS sodium dodecyl sulphate - PAGE polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis - ECB embryonic chicken brain - Cer ceramide - nLc4 or NlcOse4Cer Gal1-4GleNac1-3Gal1-4Glc-Cer, neoLactotetraosylceramide - Lc3 or LcOse3Cer GlcNac1-3Gal1-4Glc-Cer, lactotriaosylceramide - iLc5 iLcOse5Cer, GlcNAc1-3nLcOse4Cer - nLc6 nLcOse6Cer, Gal1-4iLcOse5Cer - SAGal1AGP asialo-agalacto1-acid glycoprotein - TLC thin layer chromatography  相似文献

The biomass of summer forage and their contributions were surveyed to show that litterfall supported a high-density population of sika deer (Cervus nippon Temminck) in summer on Nakanoshima Island, Toya Lake, Japan. In July 1974, the grassland had the highest productivity among understory vegetations (228±55kgha–1: mean±SE). In deciduous forests, palatable plants occupied only 0.1% of the biomass of 0.872±0.366kgha–1, and deciduous leaves within the reach of deer (=220cm at height) produced 0.208±0.070kgha–1. However, litterfall during this period had the highest productivity, 28.7± 5.3kgha–1. The deer consumed litterfall (75.6% in dry weight), short grasses (17.2%), deciduous forest understory (4.1%), deciduous leaves within the reach of deer (3.0%) and conifer plantation under story (0.1%). It is suggested that the high-density deer population would be maintained by litterfall through the year instead of browsing in deciduous forests, which has been overlooked.  相似文献

Residual toxicities of registered and selected experimental pesticides used on citrus against Agistemus industani Gonzalez (Acari: Stigmaeidae) were compared. Pesticides considered highly toxic to A. industani were: abamectin 0.15 EC at 731ml/ha+FC 435-66 petroleum oil at 46.8l/ha, pyridaben 75WP at 469g/ha, ethion 4EC at 7.01l/ha+FC 435-66 petroleum oil at 46.8l/ha, propargite 6.55 EC at 3.51l/ha, chlorfenapyr 2SC at 1.46l/ha applied alone or in combination with FC 435-66 petroleum oil at 46.8l/ha, sulphur 80DF at 16.81kg/ha, dicofol 4EC at 7.01l/ha, fenbutatin oxide 50WP at 2.24kg/ha, benomyl 50WP at 2.24kg/ha, benomyl 50WP at 1.68kg/ha+ferbam 76 GF at 5.60kg/ha, ferbam 76GF at 11.21kg/ha, neem oil 90EC at 46.8l/ha, and copper hydroxide DF (40% metallic copper) at 4.48kg metallic copper/ha+FC 435-66 petroleum oil at 46.8l/ha. Pesticides that were moderately to slightly toxic included: copper sulphate 98% at 4.48kg metallic copper/ha+FC 435-66 petroleum oil at 46.8l/ha, fenbuconazole 2F at 280ml/ha+FC 435-66 petroleum oil at 46.8l/ha, FC 435-66 petroleum oil applied alone at 46.8l/ha or 23.4l/ha, and diflubenzuron 25WP at 1.40kg/ha. Pesticides that were non-toxic included: fenbuconazole 2F at 585ml/ha, malathion 57EC at 5.85l/ha, FC 435-66 petroleum oil at 46.8l/ha, carbaryl 80S at 3.36kg/ha, chlorpyrifos 4EC at 4.68l/ha, and formetanate 92SP at 1.12kg/ha. Understanding the toxic effects of field weathered pesticides against key predacious mite species is important for effective IPM. The results of this study provide a comparison of direct and indirect toxic effects of various pesticides to A. industani under field conditions.  相似文献

To clarify consistency in the size of carbon pool of a lowland tropical rainforest, we calculated changes in above-ground biomass in the Pasoh Forest Reserve, Peninsular Malaysia. We estimated the total above-ground biomass of a mature stand using tree census data obtained in a 6-ha plot every 2years from 1994 to 1998. The total above-ground biomass decreased consistently from 1994 (431Mgha–1) to 1998 (403Mgha–1) (1Mg=103 kg). These are much lower than that in 1973 for a 0.2ha portion of the same area, suggesting that the the total above-ground biomass reduction might have been consistent in recent decades. This trend contrasted with a major trend for neotropical forests. During 1994–1998, the forest gained 23.0 and 0.88Mgha–1 of the total above-ground biomass by tree growth and recruitment, respectively, and lost 51.9Mgha–1 by mortality. Overall, the biomass decreased by 28.4Mgha–1 (i.e. 7.10Mgha–1·year–1), which is almost equivalent to losing a 76-cm-diameter living tree per hectare per year. Analysis of positive and negative components of biomass change revealed that deaths of large trees dominated the total above-ground biomass decrease. The forest biomass also varied spatially, with the total above-ground biomass density ranging 212–655Mgha–1 on a 0.2-ha basis (n= 30 subplots, 1998) and 365–440Mgha–1 on a 1ha basis. A large decrease of the total above-ground biomass density (>50Mg per ha per 2years) in several 0.2-ha subplots contributed to the overall decrease in the 6-ha total above-ground biomass. In the present study, we discuss the association between forest dynamics and biomass fluctuation, and the implication for carbon cycling in mature forests with emphasis on forest monitoring and assessments of soil and decomposition systems.  相似文献

The cyclic 35-nucleotide phosphodiesterase D3 was purified from Sinorhizobium fredii MAR-1. The native enzyme had a molecular weight of approximately 44.5kDa and a subunit molecular weight of approximately 21kDa as judged by SDS-gel electrophoresis. The pH optimum of the enzyme for the hydrolysis of cyclic AMP was approximately 6.0 with both acetate and Tris-maleate buffers. The optimum temperature for hydrolysing cyclic AMP was approximately 50C. No metal ion was required for activity and EDTA up to 2.5mM did not markedly affect the enzyme. However, methylxanthines, adenine and adenosine as well as 5-AMP, ATP, ADP and metal ions like Zn2+, Fe2+, Pb2+, Al3+ and Fe3+, were strongly inhibitory at 2.5mM.The D3 enzyme could hydrolyse both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP with the apparent K m for cyclic AMP of approximately 0.23M.  相似文献

Summary The plasmalemma of Oocystis apiculata, W. West when freezeetched has been shown to bear granules of several sizes. At the earliest stage of development the outer face of the plasmalemma of the naked autospore has small (8.5 nm diameter) granules aligned in rows, in pairs. These rows are stacked together forming extensive granule-bands over the plasmalemma surface. The orientation of these granule-bands corresponds exactly to one of the major microfibril directions. Occasionally, the bands are reduced to patches, some of which are at right angles to each other. Banding of granules on the inner plasmalemma face of naked autospores is also seen. During development the plasmalemma is seen to change so that in the final stages it bears reticulate invaginations, the granule bands occurring within them. The significance of the granulebands in terms of cellulose microfibril biosynthesis is discussed.  相似文献

We previously proposed specific interaction of Lex (Gal1 4[Fuc1 3]-GlcNAc1 3Gal) with Lex as a basis of cell adhesion in pre-implantation embryos and in aggregation of F9 teratocarcinoma cells, based on several lines of evidence (Eggenset al., J Biol Chem (1989)264:9476–9484). We now present additional evidence for this concept, based on autoaggregation studies of plastic beads coated with glycosphingolipids (GSLs) bearing Lex or other epitopes, and affinity chromatography on Lex-columns of multivalent lactofucopentaose III (Lex oligosaccharide) conjugated with lysyllysine. Comparative adhesion studies of Lex-expressing tumour cellsvs their Lex-non-expressing variants showed that only Lex-expressing cells adhere to Lex-coated plates and are involved in tumour cell aggregation, in analogy to F9 cell aggregation. The major carrier of Lex determinant in F9 cells is not GSL but rather polylactosaminoglycan (embryoglycan), and we demonstrated autoaggregation of purified embryoglycan in the presence of Ca2+, and reversible dissociation in the absence of Ca2+ (addition of EDTA). Defucosylated embryoglycan did not show autoaggregation under the same conditions. Thus, Lex-Lex interaction has been demonstrated on a lactosaminoglycan basis as well as a GSL basis. A molecular model of Lex-Lex interaction based on minimum energy conformation with involvement of Ca2+ is presented.Abbreviations BSA bovine serum albumin - CHO carbohydrate - DMEM Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium - EDTA ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid - GP glycopeptide - GSL glycosphingolipid - LAG lactosaminoglycan - Lex Gal1 4[Fuc-1 3]GlcNAc1 R - LFP lacto-N-fucopentaose - LysLys-OH lysyllysinol - Mr relative molecular weight - PBS phosphate-buffered saline - PG paragloboside (Gal1 4GlcNAc1 3Gal1 4Glc1 1Cer) - TBS Tris-buffered saline (10mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, containing 0.15M NaCl) - TC tumour cell  相似文献

Summary The Wulzen's cone of the bovine adenohypophysis presents a variable development and general arrangement. It is joined to the pars intermedia with no intervening connective tissue. It is covered by a single layer of cubical cell epithelium on the side of the hypophysial cleft. Immunofluorescence reveals the presence of different glandular cell types. The most abundant cells are those demonstrated by an anti-oPRL antibody and are either isolated or clustered. Other cells react with anti-hGH, anti-bLH, anti-oLH or anti-hTSH antibodies. Some cells react simultaneously with anti-MSH, anti-1–24ACTH, anti-17–39ACTH, anti-LPH and anti-endorphin antibodies. Cell types other than the numerous prolactin cells appear only as isolated elements. We did not observe cells reacting with anti-leu-enkephalin, anti-met-enkephalin or anti-calcitonin antibodies either in the Wulzen's cone or in the pars distalis or pars intermedia.
Résumé Le cône de Wulzen de l'adénohypophyse bovine présente un développement et une disposition générale variables. Il est accolé à la pars intermedia dont il n'est séparé par aucune cloison conjonctive. Du côté de la fente hypophysaire, il est revêtu par un épithélium simple, cubique. En immunofluorescence, on observe la présence de divers types de cellules glandulaires: les plus abondantes sont des cellules mises en évidence par un anticorps anti-oPRL, isolées ou groupées en amas. D'autres cellules réagissent avec des anticorps anti-hGH, et anti-bLH, anti-oLH ou anti-/mTSH. Quelques cellules réagissent simultanément avec des anticorps anti-MSH, anti-1–24ACTH, anti-17–39ACTH, anti-LPH et anti-endorphine. Mises à part les nombreuses cellules à prolactine, les autres types cellulaires apparaissent constamment sous l'aspect d'éléments isolés. Nous n'avons pas observé de cellules réagissant avec des anticorps anti-leu-enképhaline, antiinet-enképhaline ou anti-calcitonine ni dans le cône de Wulzen, ni dans la pars distalis et dans la pars intermedia.

Uptake kinetics of nitrogen derived from sewage–seawater mixtures (2.5–20% v/v effluent) were determined in the laboratory for Ulva rigida (Chlorophyceae) native from Bahía Nueva (Golfo Nuevo, Patagonia, Argentine). In terms of nitrogen concentration, experimental enrichment levels varied between 53.7 and 362.3M of ammonium and between 0.77 and 6.21M of nitrate+nitrite. Uptake rates were fitted to the Michaelis–Menten equation, with the following kinetic parameters: ammonium: Vmax = 591.2molg–1h–1, K s=262.3M, nitrate+nitrite: V max=12.9molg–1h–1, K s=3.5M). Both nutrients were taken up simultaneously, but ammonium incorporation was faster in all cases. The results show a high capability of Ulva rigida to remove sewage-derived nitrogen from culture media. In the field, most of the nitrogen provided by the effluent would be tied up in algal biomass, supporting low nitrogen levels found at a short distance away from the source.  相似文献

Calcium alginate capsules containing Aureobasidium pullulans cells were prepared by an in-situ one-step method. The Cd2+uptakes of free biosorbent and capsule biosorbent were described well by the Freundlich isotherms. The Cd2+ uptake of capsule biosorbent was lower than that of free biosorbent with Cd2 +at 100 mg l–1. The total cadmium uptake of capsule biosorbent increased with the increase in encapsulated cell density and plateaued at a value of 23 g Cd2+/capsule with 150 g dry biosorbent l–1 core volume of a capsule. The specific cadmium uptake of encapsulated biosorbent was 85% to that of free biosorbent at 35 g biosorbent dry weight l–1 core volume of a capsule, decreased to 35% at 176 g biosorbent dry weight l–1.  相似文献

A novel linear tetrasaccharide, Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6Gal1-4GlcNAc, was isolated from partial acid hydrolysates of metabolically labeled poly-N-acetyllactosaminoglycans of murine teratocarcinoma cells. It was characterized by exo-glycosidase sequencing and by mild acid hydrolysis followed by identification of all partial cleavage products. The tetrasaccharide, and likewise labelled GlcNAc1-6Gal1-4GlcNAc, resisted the action of endo--galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.103) fromE. freundii at a concentration of 125 mU/ml, while the isomeric, radioactive teratocarcinoma saccharides Gal1-4GlcNAc1-3Gal1-4GlcNAc and GlcNAc1-3Gal1-4GlcNAc were cleaved in the expected manner.Abbreviations WGA wheat germ agglutinin - BSA bovine serum albumin - [3H]GlcNAc1-4-GlcNAc1-4GlcNAcOL N,N,NN'-triacetylchitotriose reduced with NaB3H4  相似文献

Fowl plague virus, strain Dutch, was metabolically labeled withd-[2-3H]mannose, or withd-[6-3H]glucosamine, and the small subunit (HA2; 0.8 mg in total) of the viral hemagglutinin was isolated by preparative sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. After proteolytic digestion, the radioactive oligosaccharides were sequentially liberated from the glycopeptides by treatment with different endo--N-acetylglucosaminidases and with peptide:N-glycosidase or, finally, by hydrazinolysis. In this manner, four groups of glycans could be obtained by consecutive gel filtrations and were subfractionated by HPLC. The structures of the individual oligosaccharides were analyzed by micromethylation, by acetolysis or by digestion with exoglycosidases. The major species amongst the high mannose glycans at Ans-406 of the viral glycopolypeptide were found to be Man1-2Man1-3(Man1-2Man1-6)Man1-6(Man1-2Man1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNac1-4GlcNAc and Man1-3(Man1-2Man1-6)Man1-6(Man1-2Man1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc, while the complex glycans at Asn-478 are predominantly GlcNAc1-2Man1-3(GlcNAc1-2Man1-6)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc (lacking, in part, one of the outerN-acetylglucosamine residues) and GlcNAc1-2Man1-3(Gal1-4GlcNAc1-2Man1-6)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc.Abbreviation BSA bovine serum albumin - endo D (F,H) endo--N-acetyl-d-glucosaminidase D (F,H) - HA hemagglutinin (HA1, large subunit of HA - HA2 small subunit - FPV fowl plague virus - PNGase F peptide:N-glycosidase F - SDS sodium dodecylsulfate  相似文献
