激光与DNA作用系统非线性共振实验初探

用紫外可见分光光度计,对受Ｈｅ－Ｎｅ激光辐照过的ＤＮＡ溶液进行扫描。发现２０９ｎｍ吸收峰降低了１０％,表明６３２．８ｎｍＨｅ－Ｎｅ激光波ＤＮＡ吸收而引起其构象变化。Ｈｅ－Ｎｅ激光波长６３２．８ｎｍ,约为２０９ｎｍ的３倍,恰好为我们理论研究的激光与ＤＮＡ相互作用非线性系统的超谐波共振波长。因此该实验结果使我们的理论结果得到了初步验证。     

激光的生物学效应研究

本文通过分析多种激光（十五种激光器,波长从２６６ｎｍ—４４７．２×ｌ０３ｎｍ）对生物体（九十多种生物,如果把品种计算在内,则大约２００多种）的生物学效应研究发现：①不同波长激光都能对生物体产生作用;②激光对动物、植物、微生物均能产生生物学效应;③低剂量辐照对生物体主要是刺激作用,随着剂量增加则产生抑制、损伤,以及诱变和致死作用;④激光对６０Ｃｏ—γ射线的辐射损伤有一定的修复作用;⑤低功率激光对生物体的作用主要在于其电效应和电磁场效应（关于这个方面,将另文详细讨论）。     

不同波长激光辐照花生种子的生物学效应

本实验考察了Ｋ＋ｒ、Ａｒ＋、Ｎｄ：ＹＡＧ、ＨｅＮｅ和ＬＤ等不同波长的激光辐照对花生种子产生的生物学效应。结果显示,适当剂量不同波长的激光辐照都能促进花生种子生长。在辐照剂量为０．１２８ｗ／ｃｍ２×１８０ｓ的条件下,较短波长激光对花生幼苗的促进作用比长波长激光显著;在辐照剂量为１．２８ｗ／ｃｍ２×１８ｓ的条件下,短波长激光对花生种子的萌发及胚的生长有抑制作用,而长波长激光有促进效应。在相同辐照剂量条件下,不同功率密度与时间的组合其辐照效果不同。１．２８ｗ／ｃｍ２功率密度的Ｎｄ：ＹＡＧ（５３２ｎｍ）激光脉冲输出辐照对花生种子的生长产生显著的抑制作用。实验结果提示,要得到相同的辐照效果,长波长激光与短波长激光相比,必须提高辐照功率密度或加大辐照输出剂量。     

Nd:YAP激光辐照对雨生红球藻生理效应的荧光分析

目的：Nd：YAP激光辐照对雨生红球藻生理效应的荧光分析j方法：利用Nd：YAG激光（功率10W,辐照剂量为15s、35s、55s）辐照雨生红球藻,在对辐照细胞进行生长测定以及色素吸收光谱分析的基础上,进一步利用激光共聚焦扫描显微镜（LSCM）,在波长488nm的Ar^＋激发光条件下,对细胞的自体荧光以及吖啶橙染色的细胞核荧光物质进行定位定量分析,获得细胞自发荧光光谱和细胞核荧光物质的荧光光谱。结果：①低剂量的Nd：YAG激光辐照（15s左右）对藻细胞有促长作用,生长速率提高20．3％,色素吸收峰的峰值提高25．3％。较高剂量的Nd：YAG激光辐照（35s、55s）对藻细胞生长有抑制作用,并有明显的致死、致突效应。②对自体荧光的分析结果表明,与对照组相比,低剂量激光辐照组的细胞,在荧光光谱的峰型及峰值上变化不大,在682nm处均有较强的荧光发射,而高剂量激光辐照组的细胞多无明显的荧光发射。③对细胞核荧光物质的分析,雨生红球藻细胞在530nm（DNA）和640nm（RNA）处均有荧光发射峰。与对照组相比,低剂量激光辐照组的DNA荧光发射有所增强,但RNA的荧光发射则有所减弱;高剂量激光辐照组的核物质荧光发射谱,在峰型上与对照组存在差异,荧光强度也明显下降。结论：低剂量的Nd：YAP激光辐照对细胞核的DNA合成与复制有一定的刺激作用,可促进光合色素的合成并提高其对光能的吸收效率,从而增强光合活性,促进细胞的增殖与生长;高剂量激光辐照则对细胞的DNA有损伤作用,是致死率上升并发生突变的可能原因。     

He—Ne激光对小麦幼苗增强UV—B辐射损伤的修复效应

采用 He- Ne激光辐照对增强 UV- B辐射后小麦幼苗的损伤修复作用进行了研究。小麦种子在盛有湿滤纸的培养皿内 2 5℃下进行萌发。萌发后小麦幼苗在光合有效辐射 (PAR)为 2 2 0 μmol· m- 2 · S- 1的光背景下 ,经 1 0 .0 8k J·m- 2 · d- 1的增强 UV- B辐射 ,然后再用 5m W· mm- 2的 He- Ne激光进行辐照。通过小麦幼苗丙二醛 (MDA)、抗坏血酸 (As A)、超氧化物歧化酶 (SOD)和紫外吸收物含量及活性的变化 ,测定了 He- Ne激光对小麦 UV- B损伤修复的作用。结果显示 ,MDA、SOD、As A和紫外吸收物的变化同小麦幼苗损伤修复的能力相关联。He- Ne激光辐照可使 UV- B辐射后小麦幼苗 MDA的含量明显减少、As A含量明显增加、SOD活性增强及紫外吸收物含量显著增加。说明增强 UV- B对小麦幼苗生理水平的辐射损伤 ,能够被一定剂量的 He- Ne激光辐照而得到部分修复。但是 ,采用同等波长和功率的红光照射 ,其 MDA、SOD、As A和紫外吸收物均无明显变化 ,证明激光的促进修复作用并非由激光的光效应所致

Are two photoreceptors involved in the flowering of a long-day plant?

The effect of daylength extension with narrow spectral bands on the flowering of a long-day plant, Brassica campestris L. cv. Ceres, was investigated to obtain clues to the identity of the photoreceptor involved. Extension of a 9 h photoperiod with 5 h of light pulses at various wavelengths resulted in maximal flowering occurring after irradiation at 710 nm, less at 730 nm, and none at 550, 660 and 750 nm. Flowering at 710 and 730 nm was negated by simultaneous exposures at 550 nm, but not at 660 nm. A short preirradiation at 660 nm enabled a following irradiation at 750 nm to induce flowering. This latter induction was prevented by 550 nm irradiation.
Short flashes of light at 710 nm induced flowering that was negated by a following flash at 550 nm but not at 660 nm. The negation by 550 nm radiation was prevented by subsequent flashes at 710 nm, indicating photoreversibility. A flash at 660 nm enabled subsequent light flashes at 750 nm to initiate flowering that was reversed by a following 550 nm flash.
From the results showing the necessity of red and far-red lights, it is proposed that flowering in this long-day plant is due to two photoreceptors - one is phytochrome and the other an unknown pigment with far-red, green photoreversible properties. By using fluence response data, it is deduced that the unidentified photoreceptor has weak absorption bands in the far-red, but has a strong absorption band in the green. Flowering is induced when effects of red light absorbed by phytochrome interact with effects of far-red light absorbed by the unidentified photoreceptor.     

Excitation dynamics and heterogeneity of energy equilibration in the core antenna of photosystem I from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Energy equilibration in the photosystem I core antenna from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 was studied using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy at 298 K. The photosystem I core particles were excited at 660, 693, and 710 nm with 150 fs spectrally narrow laser pulses (fwhm = 5 nm). Global analysis revealed three kinetic processes in the core antenna with lifetimes of 250-500 fs, 1.5-2.5 ps, and 20-30 ps. The first two components represent strongly excitation wavelength-dependent energy equilibration processes while the 20-30 ps phase reflects the trapping of energy by the reaction center. Excitation into the blue and red edge of the absorption band induces downhill and uphill energy flows, respectively, between different chlorophyll a spectral forms of the core. Excitation at 660 nm induces a 500 fs downhill equilibration process within the bulk of antenna while the selective excitation of long-wavelength-absorbing chlorophylls at 710 nm results in a 380 fs uphill energy transfer to the chlorophylls absorbing around 695-700 nm, presumably reaction center pigments. The 1.5-2.5 ps phases of downhill and uphill energy transfer are largely equivalent but opposite in direction, indicating energy equilibration between bulk antenna chlorophylls at 685 nm and spectral forms absorbing below 700 nm. Transient absorption spectra with excitation at 693 nm exhibit spectral evolution within approximately 2 ps of uphill energy transfer to major spectral forms at 680 nm and downhill energy transfer to red pigments at 705 nm. The 20-30 ps trapping component and P(700) photooxidation spectra derived from data on the 100 ps scale are largely excitation wavelength independent. An additional decay component of red pigments at 710 nm can be induced either by selective excitation of red pigments or by decreasing the temperature to 264 K. This component may represent one of the phases of energy transfer from inhomogeneously broadened red pigments to P(700). The data are discussed based on the available structural model of the photosystem I reaction center and its core antenna.

Photovoltaic conversion using Zn chlorophyll derivative assembled in hydrophobic domain onto nanocrystalline TiO2 electrode

Photovoltaic conversion using zinc chlorin-e6 (ZnChl-e6), which is zinc chlorophyll-a derivative, and fatty acid (myristic acid or cholic acid) co-adsorbed nanocrystalline TiO2 layer onto ITO glass (OTE) electrode is developed. The maximum peaks of photocurrent action spectrum of the ZnChl-e6 adsorbed TiO2 layer onto OTE (ZnChl-e6/TiO2) are 400, 660 and 800 nm, respectively. Especially the IPCE value at 800 nm (7.5%) is larger than that of 660 nm (6.9%). This result indicates that ZnChl-e6 molecules is aggregated or formed dimer on a nanocrystalline TiO2 layer onto OTE and the absorption band is shifted to near IR region. The photocurrent action spectrum of ZnChl-e6 and cholic acid adsorbed TiO2 layer onto OTE (ZnChl-e6-Cho/TiO2 is similar to that of the UV-vis absorption spectrum in methanol solution, and IPCE values at 400 and 660 nm (8.1%) increase and the IPCE value at 800 nm (4.1%) decreases, indicating that the aggregation of ZnChl-e6 molecules on the TiO2 is suppressed by cholic acid. By using ZnChl-e6-Cho/TiO2, the short-circuit photocurrent density and open-circuit photovoltage also increase compared with that of ZnChl-e6 adsorbed nanocrystalline TiO2 electrode.     

Photosynthetic action spectra and adaptation to spectral light distribution in a benthic cyanobacterial mat.

We studied adaptation to spectral light distribution in undisturbed benthic communities of cyanobacterial mats growing in hypersaline ponds at Guerrero Negro, Baja California, Mexico. Microscale measurements of oxygen photosynthesis and action spectra were performed with microelectrodes; spectral radiance was measured with fiber-optic microprobes. The spatial resolution of all measurements was 0.1 mm, and the spectral resolution was 10 to 15 nm. Light attenuation spectra showed absorption predominantly by chlorophyll a (Chl a) (430 and 670 nm), phycocyanin (620 nm), and carotenoids (440 to 500 nm). Blue light (450 nm) was attenuated 10-fold more strongly than red light (600 nm). The action spectra of the surface film of diatoms accordingly showed activity over the whole spectrum, with maxima for Chl a and carotenoids. The underlying dense Microcoleus population showed almost exclusively activity dependent upon light harvesting by phycobilins at 550 to 660 nm. Maximum activity was at 580 and 650 nm, indicating absorption by phycoerythrin and phycocyanin as well as by allophycocyanin. Very little Chl a-dependent activity could be detected in the cyanobacterial action spectrum, even with additional 600-nm light to excite photosystem II. The depth distribution of photosynthesis showed detectable activity down to a depth of 0.8 to 2.5 mm, where the downwelling radiant flux at 600 nm was reduced to 0.2 to 0.6% of the surface flux.

Action spectra for polarotropism and phototropism in protonemata of the fern Adiantum capillus-veneris

The action spectrum for polarotropism was determined, using the Okazaki large spectrograph, by brief irradiation with light between 260 nm and 850 nm in single-celled protonemata of the fern Adiantum capillus-veneris L., which had been cultured for 6 days in red light and then in the dark for 15 h. The action spectrum had a peak at around 680 nm. This effect was nullified by subsequent irradiaton with far-red light, and typical red/far-red reversibility was observed, indicating the involvement of phytochrome. Polarized ultraviolet or blue light had no effect on the direction of apical growth. The action spectrum for phototropism was also determined in the red light region by means of brief microbeam irradiation of a flank of the subapical region of the protonema. This spectrum showed a peak at 662 nm which was consistent with the absorption peak of phytochrome, but not with the peak of the action spectrum for polarotropism.     

Photostimulation of Hydroxypyruvate Reductase Activity in Peroxisomes of Pharbitis nil Seedlings: II. Photoreceptors in Blue Light

The action spectrum for stimulation of hydroxypyruvate reductase(HPR) activity in etiolated cotyledons of Pharbitis nil showsthe three effective regions of blue (B), red (R), and far red(FR), with high B efficiency. Light duration response curvesand kinetics of stimulation in continuous light were comparedat 455 nm, 660 nm and 710 nm. Before 10 h, the efficienciesat 455 and 660 nm were higher than that at 710 nm. After 10h, lengthening of the 660 nm irradiation was ineffective whilelengthening of the 710 and 455 nm irradiation caused linearincreases in HPR activity. These results together with the effectof pre-R-irradiation on FR or B stimulation suggest that twopigments are simultaneously involved in the B light effect:phytochrome and a specific blue-absorbing pigment. Phytochromemay be the main effective pigment up to 10 h in blue light whilethe blue-absorbing pigment may be more effective for longerexposures.

Laser irradiation and Raman spectroscopy of single living cells and chromosomes: Sample degradation occurs with 514.5 nm but not with 660 nm laser light

In Raman spectroscopic measurements of single cells (human lymphocytes) and chromosomes, using a newly developed confocal Raman microspectrometer and a laser excitation wavelength of 514.5 nm, degradation of the biological objects was observed. In the experiments high power microscope objectives were used, focusing the laser beam into a spot approximately 0.5 micron in diameter. At the position of the laser focus a paling of the samples became visible even when the laser power on the sample was reduced to less than 1 mW. This was accompanied by a gradual decrease in the intensity of the Raman signal. With 5 mW of laser power the events became noticeable after a period of time in the order of minutes. It is shown that a number of potential mechanisms, such as excessive sample heating due to absorption of laser light, multiple photon absorption, and substrate heating are unlikely to play a role. In experiments with DNA solutions and histone protein solutions no evidence of photo damage was found using laser powers up to 25 mW. No degradation of cells and chromosomes occurs when laser light of 660 nm is used. The most plausible explanation therefore seems to be that the sample degradation is the result of photochemical reactions initiated by laser excitation at 514.5 nm of as yet unidentified sensitizer molecules or complexes present in chromosomes and cells but not in purified DNA and histone protein samples.
