二维电泳分离牛精子蛋白的技术研究 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:3
二维电泳是蛋白质分离技术并可由于对精子蛋白的分离。本研究旨在通过对双向电泳条件的研究摸索出一种适用于分离牛精子蛋白的二维电泳技术,并利用其对牛精子蛋白进行分离鉴定。在实验中,优化了等电聚焦程序,研究了精子蛋白的不同制备方法、不同上样量、不同胶条长度对电泳结果的影响。结果表明,采用尿素-盐酸胍两步裂解法裂解精子细胞制备蛋白,使用13cm非线性胶条进行蛋白二维电泳,能获得较好的电泳图谱。图谱经二维电泳软件分析,可检测出约800多个蛋白质点,分子量基本分布在10~100KD、等电点约为4~9的区域内。对精子蛋白二维电泳条件的摸索,为后续牛精子X、Y差异蛋白的检测和分析奠定了理论基础。 相似文献

在精子形成过程中,存在性染色体特异基因的表达,这是X、Y精子膜蛋白差异形成的基础。尽管精子形成过程中形成的细胞间桥可能使精子细胞间共享基因表达产物,但雄性传递偏移现象和性别偏移现象的发生又证明两类精子间存在非共享蛋白,同时H-Y抗原表位的成功鉴定、精子分离实验结果以及性别特异蛋白的检测结果都肯定了精子膜蛋白差异的存在,只是这种膜蛋白的差异很小。蛋白分离技术的进步及技术间的优化集成,为精子间细微差异膜蛋白的分离提供了可能。 相似文献

Preselection of the gender of offspring is a subject that has held man's attention since the beginning of recorded history. Most scientific hypotheses for producing the desired sex of offspring address separation of X- and Y-bearing sperm, and most have had limited, if any success. Eight of these hypotheses and their experimental verifications are discussed here. Three hypotheses are based on physical characteristics of sperm, one on supposed differences in size and shape, another on differences in density, and a third on differences in surface charge. There has been no experimental verification of differences based on size and shape, and the results from attempts to verify separation of X- and Y-bearing sperm based on density have been mixed. Electrophoresis may provide a method for separating X-and Y-bearing sperm, but it is currently unproven and would be of little practical utility, since sperm motility is lost. A fourth hypothesis employs H-Y antigen to select preimplantation embryos. This method reliably produces female offspring, but does not permit the selection of male offspring and does not work on sperm. There are two applications of the theory that X- and Y-bearing sperm should be separable by flow fractionation. Flow fractionation using thermal convection, counter-streaming sedimentation, and galvanization is highly promoted by its originator but has not gained wide acceptance due to lack of independent confirmation. Flow fractionation by laminar flow is said to provide up to 80% enrichment of both X- and Y-bearing sperm; however, this method also has not been confirmed by other workers or tested in breeding trials. The sixth theory discussed is that of separation through Sephadex gel filtration. This method may provide enrichment of X-bearing sperm, but, again, other experimenters have not been able to adequately confirm the enrichment. The best-known approach to sperm separation is that employing albumin centrifugation, yet even with this method, not all researchers have been able to confirm a final fraction rich in Y sperm, and trials in animals have given contradictory results. The most reliable method for separating X- and Y-bearing sperm is use of flow cytometric and flow sorting techniques. These techniques routinely separate fractions with a purity greater than 80% and can be above 90%. Unfortunately, these methods do not always work for human samples. Furthermore, as with electrophoretic approaches, the methods identify and separate only chemically fixed sperm and provide limited biological applications. Generally accepted experimental laboratory procedures for verification of proportions of X- and Y-bearing sperm are lacking. Staining of sperm with the fluorochrome dye quinacrine will identify a structure known as the “F-body” in human sperm and sperm from a few primates. The dye does not work other mammalian sperm. Its validity as a measure of sperm genotype is the topic of debate. We have used two methods to verify claims of separation of sperm. flow cytometry, and in vitro fusion. One can use flow cytometry to test the efficiency of separation of sperm samples. We tested seven commercial methods for the separation of bovine sper, and none were found of result in enrichment. We also used in vitro fusion of human sperm to denuded hamster ova to test enrichment of Y-bearing sperm from the albumin separation process. out results demonstrated no Y-bearing-sperm enrichment from this process. Scientific problems impeding the success of separation seem to be under investigation with an ever-increasing rate. Hybridization probes for DNA sequences specific to the X or Y chromosome may be the next appropriate technology to test of the selection and separation of X- and Y-chromosome-bearing mammalian sperm. 相似文献

Spermatozoa exhibit considerable interspecific variability in size and shape. Our understanding of the adaptive significance of this diversity, however, remains limited. Determining how variation in sperm structure translates into variation in sperm performance will contribute to our understanding of the evolutionary diversification of sperm form. Here, using data from passerine birds, we test the hypothesis that longer sperm swim faster because they have more available energy. We found that sperm with longer midpieces have higher levels of intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP), but that greater energy reserves do not translate into faster-swimming sperm. Additionally, we found that interspecific variation in sperm ATP concentration is not associated with the level of sperm competition faced by males. Finally, using Bayesian methods, we compared the evolutionary trajectories of sperm morphology and ATP content, and show that both traits have undergone directional evolutionary change. However, in contrast to recent suggestions in other taxa, we show that changes in ATP are unlikely to have preceded changes in morphology in passerine sperm. These results suggest that variable selective pressures are likely to have driven the evolution of sperm traits in different taxa, and highlight fundamental biological differences between taxa with internal and external fertilization, as well as those with and without sperm storage. 相似文献

Prediction of bull fertility is critical for the sustainability of both dairy and beef cattle production. Even though bulls produce ample amounts of sperm with normal parameters, some bulls may still suffer from subpar fertility. This causes major economic losses in the cattle industry because using artificial insemination, semen from one single bull can be used to inseminate hundreds of thousands of cows. Although there are several traditional methods to estimate bull fertility, such methods are not sufficient to explain and accurately predict the subfertility of individual bulls. Since fertility is a complex trait influenced by a number of factors including genetics, epigenetics, and environment, there is an urgent need for a comprehensive methodological approach to clarify uncertainty in male subfertility. The present review focuses on molecular and functional signatures of bull sperm associated with fertility. Potential roles of functional genomics (proteome, small noncoding RNAs, lipidome, metabolome) on determining male fertility and its potential as a fertility biomarker are discussed. This review provides a better understanding of the molecular signatures of viable and fertile sperm cells and their potential to be used as fertility biomarkers. This information will help uncover the underlying reasons for idiopathic subfertility. 相似文献

The knowledge of the mature sperm proteome is undoubtedly the basis for understanding sperm function, the mechanisms responsible for fertilization, the reasons for infertility and possible treatments. The methods of sperm protein extraction depend mainly on the proteins of interest and the protein separation techniques that will be employed. The isolation of the membrane proteins appears to be most problematic step. Nevertheless, two-dimensional electrophoresis and mass spectrometry have become the main techniques used in human sperm protein analysis. We outline the present techniques used to examine the sperm proteome and data generated from studies on the human sperm and different types of male infertility. We present the most characteristic proteins that are involved in sperm function. Their value as biomarkers for diagnosis and treatment of infertility would require further validation. We focus on selected and critical studies of the human sperm proteome to present our subjective view of this fast-moving field. 相似文献

Human sperm were incubated in vitro in serum or the defined medium TMPA and were periodically assessed for acrosome reactions using two new methods of assay. The first method, FITC-RCA labeling, was previously shown to be valid for estimating the percentage of normal acrosome reactions of human sperm. The second method, a triple staining technique, is shown in this study to give results comparable to those obtained with FITC-RCA labeling. The percentage of acrosome-reacted sperm was determined at 0, 2.5, 5, and 7 hr of incubation. In both media, some sperm had reacted by 2.5 hr; a maximum percentage of reactions occurred between 5 and 7 hr. The maximum percentage never exceeded 20–25%, which represents only one-third of the live sperm, ie, those potentially able to undergo normal acrosome reactions. It will be important in future studies to determine if this low-peak percentage is due to the fact that: (1) Commonly used culture media are suboptimal or (2) only about 25% of the sperm in a human ejaculate are capable of undergoing normal acrosome reactions. 相似文献

The population genetic behavior of mutations in sperm genes is theoretically investigated. We modeled the processes at two levels. One is the standard population genetic process, in which the population allele frequencies change generation by generation, depending on the difference in selective advantages. The other is the sperm competition during each genetic transmission from one generation to the next generation. For the sperm competition process, we formulate the situation where a huge number of sperm with alleles A and B, produced by a single heterozygous male, compete to fertilize a single egg. This “minimal model” demonstrates that a very slight difference in sperm performance amounts to quite a large difference between the alleles’ winning probabilities. By incorporating this effect of paternity-sharing sperm competition into the standard population genetic process, we show that fierce sperm competition can enhance the fixation probability of a mutation with a very small phenotypic effect at the single-sperm level, suggesting a contribution of sperm competition to rapid amino acid substitutions in haploid-expressed sperm genes. Considering recent genome-wide demonstrations that a substantial fraction of the mammalian sperm genes are haploid expressed, our model could provide a potential explanation of rapid evolution of sperm genes with a wide variety of functions (as long as they are expressed in the haploid phase). Another advantage of our model is that it is applicable to a wide range of species, irrespective of whether the species is externally fertilizing, polygamous, or monogamous. The theoretical result was applied to mammalian data to estimate the selection intensity on nonsynonymous mutations in sperm genes. 相似文献

Deleterious mutations can accumulate in the germline with age, decreasing the genetic quality of sperm and imposing a cost on female fitness. If these mutations also affect sperm competition ability or sperm production, then females will benefit from polyandry as it incites sperm competition and, consequently, minimizes the mutational load in the offspring. We tested this hypothesis in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata), a species characterized by polyandry and intense sperm competition, by investigating whether age affects post‐copulatory male traits and sperm competition success. Females did not discriminate between old and young males in a mate choice experiment. While old males produced longer and slower sperm with larger reserves of strippable sperm, compared to young males, artificial insemination did not reveal any effect of age on sperm competition success. Altogether, these results do not support the hypothesis that polyandry evolved in response to costs associated with mating with old males in the guppy. 相似文献
