An amphioxus full-length cDNA, AmphiCalbin, encoding a novel EF-hand calcium-binding protein (EFCaBP), was isolated from the gut cDNA library of amphioxus Branchiostoma belcheri. It consists of 1321 bp with a 636 bp open reading frame encoding a protein of 211 amino acids with a molecular mass of approximately 24.5 kDa. The phylogenetic analysis offers two interesting inferences. First, AmphiCalbin clusters with a group of unnamed EFCaBPs that are differentiated from other identified EFCaBPs. Second, AmphiCalbin falls at the base of the vertebrate unnamed EFCaBPs clade, probably representing their prototype. This is also corroborated by the fact that AmphiCalbin has an exon-intron organization identical to that of vertebrate unnamed EFCaBP genes. Both tissue-section in situ hybridization and whole-mount in situ hybridization prove a tissue-specific expression pattern of AmphiCalbin, with high levels of expression in the digestive system and gonads. It is proposed that AmphiCalbin might play a role in the digestive system and gonads. These observations lay the foundation for further understanding of the function of the unnamed EFCaBPs. 相似文献

不同卵裂球发育命运的特化、亦即胚胎细胞的分化是动物胚胎发育的重要特征。多数胚胎细胞尽管形态特征完全一致,却具有完全不同的发育命运。预示着:在这些细胞中存在有决定发育命运的因素———决定子。本工作克隆了青岛文昌鱼LIM类同源框基因的同源框片段。目的在于揭示决定子的分子本质。青岛近海采集性成熟的成年青岛文昌鱼,收集未受精卵、受精卵以及各个不同时期的胚胎,液氮冻存备用。分别制备总RNA。根据其它动物LIM类同源框基因的序列设计引物(Tab.1),连续进行RTPCR和PCR两次扩增。其中,原肠胚来源的第二次PCR产物经电泳鉴定(Fig.1)后,酶切、克隆入质粒、测序、将该片段所在的基因命名为Bblim基因,该片段称为Bblim同源框。根据Bblim基因同源框的核苷酸序列推导出其相应的氨基酸序列(Fig.2),与其它LIM类同源框基因进行比较(Fig.3)后,认为:Bblim基因可归入lim3类基因。比较胚胎发育各个不同时期第二次PCR产物的含量———即Bblim基因的转录(Fig.4),提示:该基因可能在受·精·后·和·原·肠·形·成·期·前·后·两个发育阶段起作用。此外,Bblim基因的同源域与海鞘Hrlim的 相似文献

GATA基因在脊椎动物和非脊椎动物的发育中行使重要的功能,该家族的成员在进化上也足非常保守的.脊椎动物的GATA基因分为两个亚群:GATA1/2/3和GATA4/5/6.通过生物信息分析,在文吕鱼的基因缓中找到了3个GATA基因:一个GATA1/2/3业家族基因,两个GATA4/5/6亚家族基因:还找到一个类GATA基因.还克隆了白氏文昌鱼(Branchiostoma belcheri)GATA123的一段序列,并研究了它在早期胚胎发育中的表达图式.结果表明GATA123在原肠胚的中内胚层表达,而在神经胚晚期和幼体早期,GATA123在脑泡和消化道中部区域表达.这种表达模式与头部发育的重要基因Otx相类似.结果提示在文吕鱼脑泡的发育过程中GATA123和Otx很可能共同发挥着重要的作用. 相似文献

The presence of phenoloxidase (PO) activity in the humoral fluid of amphioxus Branchiostoma belcheri tsingtauense was electrophoretically and spectrophotometrically studied. The enzyme was present in the humoral fluid predominantly as an inactive proenzyme, prophenoloxidase (proPO). The optimum temperature for activation of the proPO ranged from 30 degrees C to 35 degrees C, and the enzyme exhibited optimum activity at pH between 7.0 and 7.5. ProPO in the humoral fluid was readily activated to active form PO by exogenous elicitors such as trypsin, zymosan and LPS. The activation of the proPO by exogenous elicitors was significantly enhanced in the presence of 10 mM Ca2+, but was susceptible to serine protease inhibitors like soybean trypsin inhibitor and p-nitrophenyl-p'-guanidinobenzoate. PAGE revealed a single band of PO activity in the humoral fluid with an apparent molecular mass of 150 kDa, which was resolved to three bands with molecular masses of 44, 46 and 72 kDa, respectively, after SDS-PAGE. This is the first report on the presence of the enzyme PO in amphioxus humoral fluid. 相似文献

The complete cDNA and deduced amino acid sequences of the ribosomal proteins S23 (AmphiS23) and L35 (AmphiL35) from amphioxus Branchiostoma belcheri tsingtauense were identified in this study. AmphiS23 cDNA is 546 bp long and encodes a protein of 143 amino acids. It has a predicted molecular mass of 15,851 Da and a pI of 10.7. AmphiL35 cDNA comprises 473 bp, and codes for a protein of 123 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 14,543 Da and a pI of 10.8. AmphiS23 shares more than 83% identity with its homologues in the vertebrates and more than 84% identity with those in the invertebrates. AmphiL35 is more than 63% identical to its counterparts in the vertebrates and more than 52% identical to those in the invertebrates. Southern blot analysis demonstrated the existence of 1-2 copies of the S23 gene and 2-3 copies of the L35 gene in the genome of amphioxus B. belcheri tsingtauense. This is in sharp contrast to the presence of 6-13 copies of the S23 gene and 15-17 copies of the L35 gene in therat genome. It is clear that the housekeeping genes like S23 and L35 underwent a large-scale duplication in the vertebrate lineage, reinforcing the gene/genome duplication hypothesis. 相似文献

Phenoloxidase (PO) from the humoral fluid of amphioxus B. belcheri tsingtauense was purified using a sequential combination of ammonium sulphate precipitation, Sephadex G-200 chromatography and DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow chromatography. In PAGE, the purified enzyme exhibited a single band of 150 kDa under non-reducing conditions, and was resolved to three bands with molecular masses of 72, 46 and 44 kDa, respectively, under reducing conditions, suggesting that the PO in amphioxus humoral fluid seems to be a heterotrimer of three polypeptides held together by disulphide bonds. The substrate specificity and inhibition characteristics both indicate that the PO isolated from amphioxus humoral fluid is a tyrosinase-type enzyme. In addition, mouse antisera against the purified PO were prepared, and their specificity was confirmed by Western blotting, facilitating the future determination of the origin of PO in the humoral fluid and the distribution of PO-synthesising tissues in amphioxus. 相似文献

Amphioxus is an extant species closest to the ancestry of vertebrates.Observation of microRNA(miRNA)distribution of amphioxus would lend some hints for evolutionary research of vertebrates.In this study,using the publicly available scaffold data of the Florida amphioxus(Branchiostoma floridae)genome,we screened and characterized homologs of miRNAs that had been identified in other species.In total,68 pieces of such homologs were obtained and classified into 33 families.Most of these miRNAs were distributed as clusters in genome.Inter-species comparison showed that many miRNAs,which had been thought as vertebrate-or mammal-specific before,were also present in amphioxus,while some miRNAs that had been considered as protostome-specific before also existed in amphioxus.Compared with ciona,amphioxus had an apparent miRNA gene expansion,but phylogenetic analysis showed that the duplicated miRNAs or clusters of amphioxus had a higher homology level than those duplicated ones in vertebrates. 相似文献

文昌鱼秦皇岛、青岛和厦门地理种群形态特征的分化 总被引:11,自引:2,他引:11
把分别采自秦皇岛、青岛和厦门(各25尾)的文昌鱼种群的形态特征分为计数性状8个和计量性状10个,然后对18个形态特征进行ANOVA、聚类和主成分分析。结果表明:3地种群全长、体高和背腹鳍条数等18个形态特征的平均值均存在显著差异(P<0·05),且种群间的变异大于种群内。进一步比较秦皇岛和青岛种群,除在口笠触须、背鳍条数、腹鳍条数和肌节总数4个特征较为相似外,其余14个特征均存在显著差异(P<0·05);而青岛和厦门种群在全长、体高、腹孔肛门间肌节数、生殖腺数、吻鳍高、背鳍高、上尾鳍高等7个特征上更为相似(P>0·05);此外,秦皇岛和厦门种群在腹鳍高、上尾鳍长和高、下尾鳍长和高等5个特征上存在相似性(P>0·05)。聚类分析结果表明,75个样本明显分成两个类群:第二类群主要由厦门样本构成,而第一类群则主要由秦皇岛和青岛样本构成。由前3个主成分分析结果表明,所有样本可大致分为3个类群:秦皇岛、青岛和厦门类群。其中来自厦门的个体聚成一个明显的独立类群,而来自秦皇岛和青岛的样本在主成分分析图上则存在一定的交叉和重叠。总之,厦门地理种群分化最为明显,而秦皇岛和青岛种群在总体分化的趋势下,个体间形态特征仍存在相似性。 相似文献

An amphioxus cDNA, encoding phosphatidylcholine transfer protein (AmphiPCTP), was identified for the first time from the gut
cDNA library of Branchiostoma belcheri. It contains a 660-bp open reading frame corresponding to a deduced protein of 219 amino acids. Phylogenetic tree analysis
showed that AmphiPCTP clustered with PCTP subgroup of PCTP subfamily containing steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR)-related
lipid transfer (START) domains. AmphiPCTP had an exon-intron organization similar to that of human and rat PCTP genes in terms of both exon number and sequence homology
of each exon, suggesting that PCTP has probably maintained a similar function in both amphioxus and mammalian species. Both
in situ hybridization histochemistry and whole-mount in situ hybridization revealed a tissue-specific expression pattern of
AmphiPCTP with the high levels in the hepatic caecum and primitive gut, including the region where the hepatic caecum will form later
during development. This apparently agrees with the hypothesis that amphioxus hepatic caecum is equivalent to vertebrate liver.
These results suggest a conserved role of PCTPs in amphioxus as well as mammalian species.

Most Sox genes directly affect cell fate determination and differentiation. In this study,we isolated two Sox genes:SoxB2 and SoxC from amphioxus (Branchiostoma belcheri),the closest living invertebrate relative of the vertebrates. Alignments of SoxB2 and SoxC protein sequences and their vertebrate homologs show high conservation of their HMG domains. Phylogenic analysis shows that amphioxus SoxB2 and SoxC fall out of the vertebrate branches,suggesting that vertebrate homologs might arise from gene duplicat... 相似文献
