Characterization of the MHC class II region in cattle. The number of DQ genes varies between haplotypes 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
The organization of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II region in cattle was investigated by Southern blot analysis using human probes corresponding to DO, DP, DQ, and DR genes. Exon-specific probes were also employed to facilitate the assessment of the number of different bovine class II genes. The results indicated the presence of single DO
and DR
genes, at least three DR
genes, while the number of DQ genes was found to vary between MHC haplotypes. Four DQ haplotypes, DQ

12. No firm evidence for the presence of bovine DP genes was obtained. The same human probes were also used to investigate the genetic polymorphism of bovine class II genes. DQ DQ
, DR DR
, and DO
restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were resolved and in particular the DQ restriction fragment patterns were highly polymorphic. Comparison of the present result with the current knowledge of the class II region in other mammalian species suggested that the DO, DP, DQ, DR, and DZ subdivision of the class II region was established already in the ancestor of mammals. The DP genes appear to be the least conserved class II genes among mammalian species and may have been lost in cattle. The degree of polymorphism of different class II genes, as revealed by RFLP analyses, shows striking similarities between species. 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

Purification and immunocytochemical localization of kafirins inSorghum bicolor (L. Moench) endosperm
Summary Kafirins are the storage proteins of sorghum and are found in protein bodies in the seed endosperm. They have been classified as -, -, and -kafirins according to differences in molecular weight, solubility, and structure. The kafirins were purified, amino acid composition was determined, and immunolocalization methods were used to determine the organization of the protein bodies and distribution of kafirins throughout the endosperm. All three groups of kafirins were low in lysine. -Kafirins and -kafirins were relatively high in cysteine, and -kafirins were relatively high in methionine. Transmission electron microscopy showed that protein bodies in the peripheral endosperm were spheroid with concentric rings and few darkly stained inclusions. In contrast, protein bodies of the central endosperm were irregularly shaped with a higher proportion of darkly stained material. The light staining regions of the protein bodies are composed primarily of -kafirins with minor portions of - and -kafirins. The dark staining regions, however, are composed primarily of - and -kafirins. Immunoelectron microscopy showed that protein bodies in the peripheral endosperm contain predominantly a-kafirin with minor amounts of - and -kafirin. Central endosperm protein bodies are also predominantly -kafirin, but have a higher proportion of -kafirin and -kafirin than the peripheral endosperm protein bodies.Abbreviations GAR-HRP

Various constructions of human haptoglobin (Hp) cDNA coding either for the complete 2FS precursor protein or only for the subunit have been placed under the control of the PR promoter in the bacterial expression vector pCQV2 (Queen, 1983). In addition to the expected 45,000 dalton polypeptide synthesized after induction of the PR promoter, the complete 2FS constructions constitutively express a smaller polypeptide of 30,000 dalton corresponding to a truncated Hp protein. Computer analysis of the HpcDNA revealed the presence of two strong potential bacterial promoters (2PF and 2PS) located in the duplicated 2FS sequence. Both Hp promoter signals are followed by potential mRNA start sites and ribosome binding sites at a compatible distance from initiation codons. In addition, the Hp2 cDNA sequence, when fused upstream to the cDNA coding for 1-antitrypsin, constitutively promotesin vivo the efficient expression of an hybrid protein specifically recognized by antibodies raised against 1-antitrypsin or haptoglobin. 相似文献

Summary This paper reports our experience of molecular screening and fetal diagnosis of -thalassemia in 457 at risk couples of Italian descent. Molecular screening was carried out by dot blot analysis on amplified DNA with oligonucleotide probes complementary to the eight most common mutations in Italians [39 (CT); 6 (-A); +-87 (CG); + IVSI nt 110 (GA); IVSI nt 1 (GA); + IVSI nt 6 (TC); IVSII nt 1 (GA); + IVSII nt 745 (CG)]. By using this approach, we have been able to define the mutation in 92.8% of cases. The rest (all but four) were defined by direct sequencing and this led to the detection of nine rare mutations [76 (-C); + IVSI nt 5 (GA); + IVSI nt 5 (GC); + IVSI -1 (cod 30) (GC); +-87 (CT), -290 bp del.; +-101 (CT)], and to the characterization of a novel mutation consisting of the deletion of the G at the invariant AG of the IVSII splice acceptor site of the -globin gene ( IVSII nt 850-1 bp). In the remaining four cases, the -globin gene showed entirely normal sequences and the -globin gene cluster was intact, as indicated by Southern blot analysis. Fetal diagnosis was carried out by dot blot analysis with the oligonucleotide probes defined in the parents. The procedure is simple and reliable, and the results can be obtained within 1 week of sampling. No misdiagnosis has so far occurred. The results indicate that fetal diagnosis of -thalassemia by DNA analysis may be obtained in practically all cases (even in a population showing marked heterogeneity of -thalassemia) by the combination of dot blot analysis for detecting common mutations, and direct sequencing for defining those that are uncommon. 相似文献

Summary The activities of -galactosidase, -mannosidase and -mannosidase were determined in extracts from the endosperm and from the embryo of fenugreek seeds at different stages of germination.
Endosperm homogenates contained little or no activity of the above enzymes in the early stages of germination, before the reserve galactomannan began to be mobilised. The onset of galactomannan breakdown coincided with the appearance of -galactosidase and -mannosidase activities, which increased throughout the period of galactomannan degradation and then remained constant. A similar rise in -galactosidase and -mannosidase activities occurred during galactomannan breakdown in dry-isolated endosperms incubated under germination conditions. The increase could be suppressed by metabolic inhibitors which also inhibit galactomannan breakdown.
Embryo homogenates contained high -galactosidase, high -mannosidase and some -mannosidase activity at all stages of germination.No oligomannosyl -1,4 phosphorylase activity could be detected either in the endosperm or in the embryo.It is concluded that the galactomannan of fenugreek is broken down by a series of hydrolases secreted by the aleurone layer of the endosperm. They include -galactosidase, -mannosidase and probably also endo--mannanase.This is part four in a series of papers dealing with galactomannan metabolism.

The conserved residue Thr42 of -subunit of the chloroplast ATP synthase of maize (Zea mays L.) was substituted with Cys, Arg, and Ile, respectively, through site-directed mutagenesis. The over-expressed and refolded -proteins were purified by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and FPLC on mono-Q column, which were as biologically active (inhibiting Ca2+-ATPase activity and blocking proton gate) as the native subunit isolated from chloroplasts. The T42C and T42R showed higher inhibitory activities on the soluble CF1(–) Ca2+-ATPase than the WT. The T42I inhibited the Ca2+-ATPase activity of soluble CF1 and restored photophosphorylation activity of membrane-bound CF1 deficient in the most efficiently. Far-ultraviolet CD spectra showed that the portions of -helix and -sheet structures of the three mutants were somewhat different from WT. Thus the conserved residue Thr42 may be important for maintaining the structure and function of the -subunit and the basic functions of the -subunit as far as an inhibitor of Ca2+-ATPase and the proton gate are related. 相似文献

Summary Three different conformations of proline rings in a protein in solution, Up, Down and Twist, have been distinguished, and stereospecific assignments of the pyrrolidine -, - and -hydrogens have been made on the basis of 1H-1H vicinal coupling constant patterns and intraresidue NOEs. For all three conformations, interhydrogen distances in the pairs -3, 3-3, 2-2, 2-2, and 3-3 (2.3 Å) are shorter than those in the pairs -2, 2-3, 3-2, 2-3, and 3-2 (2.7–3.0 Å), resulting in stronger NOESY cross peaks. For the Up conformation, the 3-2 and 2-3 spin-spin coupling constants are small (<3 Hz), and weak cross peaks are obtained in a short-mixing-time (10 ms) TOCSY spectrum; all other vicinal coupling constants are in the range 5–12 Hz, and result in medium to strong TOCSY cross peaks. For the Down form, the -2, 2-3, and 3-2 vicinal coupling constants are small, leading to weak TOCSY cross peaks; all other couplings again are in the range 5–12 Hz, and result in medium to strong TOCSY cross peaks. In the case of a Twist conformation, dynamically averaged coupling constants are anticipated. The procedure has been applied to bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor and Cucurbita maxima trypsin inhibitor-V, and ring conformations of all prolines in the two proteins have been determined. 相似文献

The luciferin-binding protein (LBP) of the dinoflagellate Gonyaulax polyedra is encoded by large gene family with at least two different members. To more fully understand the expression and genomic organization of this gene family, 40 full-length LBP cDNAs were isolated and mapped with the restriction enzymes Xho I, Eco RI, Pvu II and Hind III. All cDNAs isolated could be placed into one of two groups called LBP and LBP. Two LBP group cDNAs were completely sequenced and were found to share 99% identity at both the nucleotide and protein levels. One LBP cDNA was sequenced and was found to share only 86% sequence identity with the LBP group at both the nucleotide and protein levels. Both groups of message appear to be expressed at nearly equal levels since (1) two-dimensional gels of purified LBP show two protein isoforms present in roughly equal amounts and (2) northern blots using group-specific probes suggest that cellular levels of LBP and LBP mRNAs are identical. Genomic Southern blots using group-specific probes suggests that the copy number of both gene groups is very similar and that LBP gene loci are organized as tandem repeats of either LBP or LBP sequences. 相似文献

Structural analogues of the NADP+ were studied as potential coenzymes and inhibitors for NADP+ dependent malic enzyme from Zea mays L. leaves. Results showed that 1, N6-etheno-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate ( NADP+), 3-acetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (APADP+), nicotinamide-hypoxanthine dinucleotide phosphate (NHDP+) and -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2: 3-cyclic monophosphate (23NADPc+) act as alternate coenzymes for the enzyme and that there is little variation in the values of the Michaelis constants and only a threefold variation in Vmax for the five nucleotides. On the other hand, thionicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (SNADP+), 3-aminopyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (AADP+), adenosine 2-monophosphate (2AMP) and adenosine 2: 3-cyclic monophosphate (23AMPc) were competitive inhibitors with respect to NADP+, while -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 3-phosphate (3NADP+), NAD+, adenosine 3-monophosphate (3AMP), adenosine 2: 5-cyclic monophosphate (25AMPc), 5AMP, 5ADP, 5ATP and adenosine act as non-competitive inhibitors. These results, together with results of semiempirical self-consistent field-molecular orbitals calculations, suggest that the 2-phosphate group is crucial for the nucleotide binding to the enzyme, whereas the charge density on the C4 atom of the pyridine ring is the major factor that governs the coenzyme activity.Abbreviations NADP+

The dynamics of coupled biological oscillators can be modeled by averaging the effects of coupling over each oscillatory cycle so that the coupling depends on the phase difference between the two oscillators and not on their specific states. Average phase difference theory claims that mode locking phenomena can be predicted by the average effects of the coupling influences. As a starting point for both empirical and theoretical investigations, Rand et al. (1988) have proposed d/dt= — K sin ), with phase-locked solutions =arcsin( /K), where is the difference between the uncoupled frequencies and K is the coupling strength. Phase-locking was evaluated in three experiments using an interlimb coordination paradigm in which a person oscillates hand-held pendulums. was controlled through length differences in the left and right pendulums. The coupled frequency c was varied by a metronome, and scaled to the eigenfrequency v of the coupled system K was assumed to vary inversely with c. The results indicate that: (1) and K contribute multiplicatively to (2) =0 or = regardless of K when =0; (3) 0 or regardless of when K is large (relative to ); (4) results (1) to (3) hold identically for both in phase and antiphase coordination. The results also indicate that the relevant frequency is c/v rather than c. Discussion high-lighted the significance of confirming =arcsin(/K) for more general treatments of phase-locking, such as circle map dynamics, and for the 11 phase-entrainment which characterizes biological movement systems. 相似文献

Summary Specific antisera to -melanotropin (-MSH) and corticotropin (ACTH 1-39) were used to obtain immunocytochemical evidence for the differential localization of -MSH and ACTH in the secretory granules of corticotropes of rat anterior pituitary. The specificity of the antisera was established by binding 131I-labeled -MSH and ACTH 1-39 to their respective antisera. Double-labeling immunocytochemistry (for -MSH, ferritin; for ACTH, colloidal gold) was performed. Some secretory granules were labeled with ferritin particles (-MSH), whereas others contained gold particles (ACTH). Only a few granules showed both ACTH and -MSH. In typical corticotropes (stellate in form with a small number of secretory granules aligned along the cell periphery) only some of the secretory granules that were labeled with anti-ACTH serum were also immunoreactive to anti--MSH. In atypical corticotropes (polygonal in shape and containing a large number of secretory granules) almost all of the immunoreactive ACTH secretory granules were also positive to anti--MSH serum. An intermediate type of corticotrope was observed containing a small number of secretory granules, almost all of which were labeled with anti--MSH. Thus, rat anterior pituitary corticotropes may be classified into three types according to the distribution and content of -MSH. The light-microscopic immuncytochemistry provided similar results. 相似文献

SCM2, a novel gene encoding a yeast tryptophan permease, was cloned as a high-copy-number suppressor of cse2-1. The cse2-1 mutation causes cold sensitivity, temperature sensitivity and chromosome missegregation. However, only the cold-sensitive phenotype of cse2-1 cells is suppressed by SCM2 at high copy. SCM2 is located on the left arm of yeast chromosome XV, adjacent to SUP3 and encodes a 65 kDa protein that is highly homologous to known amino acid permeases. Four out of five disrupted scm2 alleles (scm21-4) cause slow growth, whereas one disrupted allele (scm25) is lethal. Cells with both the scm21 and trp1-101 mutations exhibit a synthetic cold-sensitive phenotype and grow much more slowly at the permissive temperature than cells with a single scm21 or trp1-101 mutation. A region of the predicted SCM2 protein is identical to the partial sequence recently reported for the yeast tryptophan permease TAP2, indicating that SCM2 and TAP2 probably encode the same protein. 相似文献

Photosynthetic utilization of radiant energy was studied by chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence and maximum photosynthetic O2 evolution (P
max) in temperate lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) grown under natural tropical fluctuating ambient temperatures but with their roots exposed to two different root-zone temperatures (RZTs): a constant 20 °C-RZT (RZT20) and a fluctuating ambient RZT (RZTa) from 23 to 40 °C. On a sunny day, irrespective of RZT, F/Fm [ratio of the variable to maximal fluorescence under irradiation (the maximal photosystem 2 quantum yield with actinic light)] decreased and non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) increased parallel to the increase of photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD). However, RZTa plants showed lower F/Fm and higher NPQ than RZT20 plants. The electron transport rate (ETR) was much higher in RZT20 plants than in RZTa plants especially during moderately sunny days. There were no significant diurnal changes in P
max although these values of RZT20 plants were much higher than those of RZTa plants. On cloudy days, no significant diurnal changes in F/Fm and NPQ occurred, but F/Fm was higher and NPQ was lower in RZT20 plants than in RZTa plants. Diurnal changes in ETR were also observed in all plants while P
max values throughout the whole cloudy days in both RZT20 and RZTa plants were constant. Again, RZT20 plants had much higher values of P
max than RZTa plants. During RZT transfer period, all Chl fluorescence parameters measured at midday fluctuated with PPFD. Impact of RZT on these parameters was observed 2–3 d after RZT transfer. ETR and P
max measured with saturating PPFD in the laboratory did not vary with the fluctuating PPFD in the greenhouse but the effects of RZT on these two parameters were observed 3–4 d after RZT transfer. Thus RZT affects photosynthetic utilization of photon energy in temperate lettuce grown under natural tropical condition. 相似文献

Two methods of obtaining 3-betulinic acid and related compounds from their 3-epimers were studied: the reaction of bimolecular substitution and the stereoselective reduction of 3-ketoderivatives. The substitution of acyloxy by formyloxy group in 3--tosyllupeol or of the belulin hydroxyl by benzoyloxy group resulted only in 2, 3-elimination products, with none of the expected products of bimolecular substitution being found. The catalytic hydrogenation of betulonic acid over Raney nickel resulted only in reduction of the isopropenyl double bond, whereas the use of 5% Ru/C gave a 60 : 40 mixture of epimers of dihydrobetulinic acid. Practically the same mixture of betulinic acid epimers was obtained when reducing betulonic acid with L-Selectride. The cytotoxic activity of 3-betulinic acid increased toward the Bro melanoma cells and decreased toward the MS melanoma cells. 相似文献

Basis of the Relationship between Ash Content in the Flag Leaf and Carbon Isotope Discrimination in Kernels of Durum Wheat 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The relationship between ash content and carbon isotope discrimination () was studied in durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) grown in a Mediterranean region (Northwest Syria) under three different water regimes (hereafter referred to as environments). In two of these environments, 144 genotypes were cultivated under rain-fed conditions. In the third environment, 125 genotypes were cultivated under irrigation. Ash content was measured in the flag leaf about 3 weeks after anthesis, whereas was analysed in mature kernels. Total transpiration of the photosynthetic tissues of the culm contributing, from heading to maturity, to the filling of kernels was also estimated. Leaf ash content, expressed either on dry matter or leaf area basis or as total ash per blade, correlated positively (p< 0.001) with in the three environments. However, this relationship was not the result of a positive correlation across genotypes between and tissue water content. Moreover, only a small part of the variation in across genotypes was explained by concomitant changes in ash content. When all genotypes across the three environments were plotted, and ash content followed a non-linear relationship (r
2 = 74), with tending to a plateau as the ash content increased. However, for the set of genotypes and environments combined, total ash content per leaf blade was positively and linearly related (r
2 = 0.76) with the accumulated culm transpiration. The non-linear nature of the relationship between ash content and is sustained by the fact that culm transpiration also showed a non-linear relationship with kernel . Therefore, differences in leaf ash content between environments, and to a lesser extent between genotypes, seem to be brought about by variations in accumulated transpiration during grain formation. 相似文献

Summary Tn5-trp hybrid transposons have been constructed by insertion of a trpPOED Hind III fragment into an in vivo Tn5 internal deletion mutant or by substitution of trp for the internal Tn5 Hind III fragment. These hybrids are called, respectively, Tn409 and Tn410. Both Tn409 and Tn410 will transpose into in the presence of a complementing Tn5 element. In the absence of a wild Tn5, lysogens carrying R1162::Tn409 and R1162::Tn410 plasmids will yield trp phages at less than six per cent of the complemented frequency. This reduction indicates that Tn409 and Tn410 lack a diffusible transposition function provided by wild Tn5 elements. However, the formation of trp phages without complementation is real. Most of these transducing particles contain Tn409 and Tn410 still linked to the carrier R1162 plasmid. This observation suggests that uncomplemented Tn409 and Tn410 elements mediate the formation of -transposon-plasmid cointegrate structures. Thus, the missing transposition function may be involved in resolving these cointegrate structures to the final ::Tn409 or ::Tn410 product.Abbreviations p.f.u.

Summary Isoelectric focusing of extracts from the endosperm of mature grains of hexaploid wheat and related species was used to study the genetic control of Iodine binding factor (IBF). Ten IBF bands were present in Chinese Spring (CS) and analysis of the nullisomictetrasomic and ditelosomic lines of CS showed nine of them to be controlled by genes on the long arms of the homoeologous group 5 chromosomes. Five alleles were detected at Ibf-A1 locus, four at Ibf-B1 and four at Ibf-D1 among a sample of 46 wheat genotypes. Homoeoloci were found on chromosome 5R of Secale cereale, 5E of Agropyron elongatum, 5U of Aegilops umbellulata, 5Agi of Agropyron intermedium, 5S1 and 4S1 of Aegilops sharonensis and 4H of Hordeum vulgare. 相似文献

The study deals with a comparative analysis of the relative abundances of the carbon isotopes 12C and 13C in the metabolites and biomass of the Burkholderia sp. BS3702 and Pseudomonas putida BS202-p strains capable of utilizing aliphatic (n-hexadecane) and aromatic (naphthalene) hydrocarbons as sources of carbon and energy. The isotope compositions of the carbon dioxide, biomass, and exometabolites produced during the growth of Burkholderia sp.

2 = –24.1 ± 0.4, 13Cbiom = –19.2 ± 0.4, and 13Cexo = –19.1 ± 0.4, respectively. The possibility of using the isotope composition of metabolic carbon dioxide for the rapid monitoring of the microbial degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in the environment is discussed. 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
