Experiments were conducted employing saturated C4, C6, C8, C9, C10, C12 and C18 fatty acids, their methyl esters, C8 fatty alcohol, C8, C10 and C12 mono-, di- and triglycerides and C18 mono- and triglycerides on the inhibitory activity against growth of the Avena coleoptiles. The C8, C9 and C10 fatty acids, and the methyl ester of C10 had strong activity which gradually reduced with either increased or decreased carbon chain length. The C10 monoglyceride also exhibited strong activity whereas no effect was found in other glycerides.The C8 fatty alcohol was more active than the C8 methyl ester. The acyl location of the C10 monoglyceride had no effect on the high activity. Concentration of the C10 monoglyceride corresponding to 50% inhibition of the control was 2.3 × 10−4M.  相似文献

C4 photosynthetic pathway and morphological functional types were determined for 104 species in 45 genera and 10 families from the deserts of China. 67 C4 species (64.4 %) were found in Dicotyledoneae (e.g. Chenopodiaceae, Polygonaceae, and Amaranthaceae), the other 37 species were in Monocotyledoneae (e.g. Gramineae, Cyperaceae, and Commelinaceae). 36.5 % of the Chenopodiaceae species (predominantly members of the genera Anabasis, Atriplex, Kochia, Salsola, and Suaeda) identified in the desert regions were found with C4 photosynthesis, which was about 48 % of the total C4 species. Many C4 species (58.7 %) were annuals (e.g. Amaranthus, Atriplex, Digitaria, Eragrostis, Kochia, and Salsola) and experienced long-term droughts, high temperature, and high irradiance. Relatively more shrub C4 species (28 species of 104) were found in Chenopodiaceae (e.g. Anabasis, Camphorosma, Haloxylon, and Salsola) and Polygonaceae (e.g. Calligonum) in the desert regions. Most of shrub C4 species with small leaf area were no more than 1 m in height and distributed in sandy soils. Composition of relatively more annual species, shrubs, and Chenopodiaceae C4 species was the primary characteristic for the C4 species occurrence in deserts, and this was remarkably related with the arid environmental conditions.  相似文献

Photosynthetic pathway Types (C3, C4, and CAM) and life forms of native species from Hulunbeier rangelands, north China were studied. Of the total 258 species, 216 species in 132 genera and 42 families had C3 photosynthetic pathway, including dominant herbs, e.g. Stipa baicalensis Roshev. and Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvel., Filifolium sibiricum Kitam. and Arudinella hirta (Thunb.) Koidz. 38 species in 28 genera and 10 families were found with C4 photosynthesis, and 4 species in 2 genera and 1 family had CAM photosynthetic pathway. The occurrence of C4 species was common in Gramineae and Chenopodiaceae, and the two families were leading ones within C4 plants. More than 52 % of the total 258 species were in H form, 21 % in Th form, 19 % in G form; the other life form Types, e.g. Ch, M, N, and HH, formed less than 3 %. 68 % of C4 species were in Th form and 24 % in H form, indicating that these Types were the dominant life forms for C4 species in the rangeland region. The occurrence of C4 species was closely related with plant habitats, disturbed lands had the highest C4 abundance (55 % of the total C4 species), followed by grasslands and sandy soil, and forests had the lowest C4 abundance (8 %). Hence the occurrence of C4 species could be efficient indicator for rangeland dynamics in Hulunbeier rangelands.  相似文献

The lipid patterns of six halophilic Dunaliella species from the Dead Sea (C9, D11a, D11b, D13, F20a and D. viridis) were found to be generally similar to those of halotolerant Dunaliella species previously examined, except for the presence in the halphilic Dunaliella of small to trace amounts of one or more (up to five) unidentified glycolipids. The lipids of two of the halophilic algae, species C9 and D11b, were studied in detail and were found to be similar in composition. Glycolipids were the major group (55.0 and 53.2 mol % for C9 and D11b, respectively), followed by neutral lipids (mainly triacyglycerols: 21.3 mol %; 24.6 mol %), whereas phospholipids were a much smaller fraction (6.5 mol %; 5.8 mol %). Monogalactosyldiacylglycerol was the largest component (22.0 mol %; 24.3 mol %) but digalactosyldiacylglycerol (18.7 mol %; 14.9 mol %) and sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol (14.3 mol %; 14.0 mol %) were also present in high concentrations. All phospholipids were present at low concentrations: phosphatidylglycerol (4.4 mol %; 3.1 mol %); phosphatidylethanolamine (1.1 mol %; 0.7 mol %); phosphatidylcholine (0.9 mol %; 1.9 mol %); and phosphatidylinositol (traces). Diacylglyceryl-O-(N,N,N-trimethyl)homoserine was present in C9 and D11b (3.3 mol %; 9.3 mol %) and in all the other species examined. Fatty acid composition of the individual lipid components of C9 and D11b showed characteristic differences between glycolipids and phospholipids, in a similar pattern for both algae. The major fatty acids detected in all species examined were -linolenic, linoleic, palmitic, oleic and a polyunsaturated sixteen carbon acid.  相似文献

C4 photosynthetic pathway and life form were determined for 159 species in 71 genera and 13 families in the grassland of North China. 45 % of the C4 species were found in Graminae, 19 % in each of Cyperaceae and Chenopodiaceae. More than 51 % of these C4 species were in therophyta and 36 % hemicryptophyta, while fewer species were in nanophanerophyta (9 %) or geophyta (5 %). The numbers of C4 species and their life forms were closely related with grassland deterioration and succession in North China. This indicated that the C4 species had greater capacity to tolerate environmental stress (e.g. drought and salinity) caused by animal grazing and cultivation.  相似文献

Aerobic, mesophilic bacteria from coal tar–contaminated soil were analyzed for pyrene utilization capacity and identified by 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing as members of three genera: Bacillus spp., Pseudomonas sp., and Rhodococcus sp. The soil contained nine different hazardous polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs): benzo[g, h, i]perylene, dibenzo[a, h]anthracene, indeno[1,2,3-c,d]pyrene, pyrene, acenaphthylene, fluorene, phenanthrene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, and benzo[b]fluoranthene. Bacillus spp. (PK-6) MTCC 1005 showed 56.4% utilization of pyrene (C16H10) (50 μg ml?1) in 4 days, with growth associated biosurfactant activity and resulted in the formation of five new intermediates: phenanthrene (C14H10), 9,10-diphenylphenanthrene (C26H18), 9-methoxyphenanthrene (C15H12O), 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthoic acid (C11H12O2), and 1,6,7-trimethylnaphthalene (C13H14). The results suggested that Bacillus spp. could be found suitable for practical field application for effective in situ PAH bioremediation.  相似文献

A bacterial strain, designated Iso4T, was isolated from the East Sea of Korea and was subjected to a poly-phasic taxonomy study including phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics as well as 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Cells of the strain were Gram-negative, motile, non-budding, non-stalked, and strictly aerobic. Strain Iso4T grew optimally at 20°C in the presence of 1∼2% (w/v) NaCl and at pH 6.9∼7.6. The major respiratory quinone was Q-10 and the major cellular fatty acids were C18:1 ω7c (53.5%), C17:1 ω5c (11.7%), C17:1 ω6c (8.1%), C16:0 (7.8%), C17:0 (4.8%), C15:0 (2.9%), and C16:1 ω5c (2.2%). The DNA G+C content of strain Iso4T was 56.2 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain Iso4T formed a monophyletic clade in the family Hyphomonadaceae, supported by high bootstrap value and was most closely related to the genus Hyphomonas (92∼94%), a member of marine bacteria in the family. The phenotypic, genotypic, and chemotaxonomic evidences also suggest strain Iso4T represents a novel genus and species in the family Hyphomonadaceae, for which the name Henriciella gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Iso4T (=KCTC 12513T =DSM 19595T =JCM 15116T).  相似文献

Eight newly synthesized carbacylamidophosphates with the general formula RC(O)NHP(O)Cl2 with R = pCl–C6H4 1a, pBr–C6H4 2a, C6H5 3a, and pMe–C6H4 4a and RC(O)NHP(O)(NC4H8O)2 R = pCl–C6H4 1b, pBr–C6H4 2b, C6H5 3b, pMe–C6H4 4b, were selected to compare the inhibition kinetic parameters, IC50, Ki, kp and KD, on human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (hAChE) and bovine serum butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), Also, the in vivo inhibition potency of compound 2a, 2b and 3a, were studied. The data demonstrates that compound 2a and compound 2b are the potent sensitive as AChE and BuChE inhibitors respectively, and the inhibition of hAChE is about 10-fold greater than that of BuChE.  相似文献

By means of microcalorimetry, the effect of four copper(II) complexes on Tetrahymena growth was investigated. The extent and duration of the inhibitory effect on the metabolism, judged by the rate constant, k, and the half inhibition concentration, IC50, varied with the different complexes. The results showed that the half inhibition concentrations IC50 of CuCl2, (C9H6NO)2Cu and [Cu(phen)2]Cl2⋅6H2O were 9.9 × 10−4, 2.0 × 10−4, and 2.6 × 10−4 mol/L, respectively. The sequence of antibiotic activity of these three complexes was: (C9H6NO)2Cu > [Cu(phen)2]Cl2⋅6H2O > CuCl2. The growth rate constants of [Cu(phen)3]Cl2⋅6H2O did not change obviously with the increase of concentrations, but [Cu(phen)3]Cl2⋅6H2O also can prolong the time of Tetrahymena growth.  相似文献

Evidence is presented contrary to the suggestion that C4 plants grow larger at elevated CO2 because the C4 pathway of young C4 leaves has C3-like characteristics, making their photosynthesis O2 sensitive and responsive to high CO2. We combined PAM fluorescence with gas exchange measurements to examine the O2 dependence of photosynthesis in young and mature leaves of Panicum antidotale (C4, NADP-ME) and P. coloratum (C4, NAD-ME), at an intercellular CO2 concentration of 5 Pa. P. laxum (C3) was used for comparison. The young C4 leaves had CO2 and light response curves typical of C4 photosynthesis. When the O2 concentration was gradually increased between 2 and 40%, CO2 assimilation rates (A) of both mature and young C4 leaves were little affected, while the ratio of the quantum yield of photosystem II to that of CO2 assimilation (ΦPSII/ΦCO2) increased more in young (up to 31%) than mature (up to 10%) C4 leaves. A of C3 leaves decreased by 1·3 and ΦPSII/ΦCO2 increased by 9-fold, over the same range of O2 concentrations. Larger increases in electron transport requirements in young, relative to mature, C4 leaves at low CO2 are indicative of greater O2 sensitivity of photorespiration. Photosynthesis modelling showed that young C4 leaves have lower bundle sheath CO2 concentration, brought about by higher bundle sheath conductance relative to the activity of the C4 and C3 cycles and/or lower ratio of activities of the C4 to C3 cycles.  相似文献

Photosynthetic pathways (C3, C4, and CAM) and morphological functional types were identified for the species from vegetation in agro-pastoral ecotone, North Beijing. 792 vascular plant species (nearly half of the total species in the ecotone), in 66 families and 317 genera, were identified with C3, C4, and CAM photosynthesis (Table 1). 710 species (90 % of the identified species in Table 1) in 268 genera and 64 families were found with C3 photosynthesis, 68 species (9 % of the total identified species) in 40 genera and 7 families with C4 photosynthesis, and 14 species in 4 genera and 1 family with CAM photosynthesis. Gramineae is the leading family with C4 photosynthesis (43 species), Cyperaceae ranks the second (16 species) followed by Chenopodiaceae (5 species). The significant increase of C4 proportion (C4/total species) with land deterioration suggested the plants of this type are remarkably responsive to land use in the ecotone. 792 species were classified into nine morphological functional types and the changes of most of these types (e.g. perennial forbs (PEF), annual grasses (ANG), and annual forbs (ANF)) were consistent with habitats and vegetation dynamics in the agro-pastoral ecotone. Hence the photosynthetic pathways, combined with the morphological functional types, are efficient indications for studying the linkage between species and ecosystems in the ecotone.  相似文献

The use of the NMR spectra (250 MHz) of cellulose triacetate allows the determination of the percentage of deuterium bonded to each of the six carbon atoms of the monomer residue (except for H?1 and one of the protons bonded to C6 where the signals overlap). Deuterated derivatives of D -glucose and/or deuterated water were used for the biosynthesis of bacterial cellulose by Acetobacter xylinum. Analysis of NMR spectra of acetylated samples gives the following results. About 90% of the protons linked to C1 and C6 come from the D -glucose used in the nutrition medium, whereas 10% are exchanged with other sources of protons. Over 40% of the protons linked to C2, C3, C4, and C5 arise from the water of the nutrition medium. Discrepancies between results of biosynthesis from deuterated water and from deuterated D -glucose can only be explained if more than one enzymatic process is involved in the biosynthesis of bacterial cellulose.  相似文献

Data are presented to show the gas chromatographic identification of a total of 18 saturated aliphatic γ- and δ-lactones obtained from melted beef depot fat, namely, δ-C6, γ-C7, γ-C8, γ-C9, and a homologous series of γ- and δ-lactones of the even-carbon numbers C10 to C16 and of smaller amount of the odd-carbon numbers C11 to C15. These lactones were isolated by steam distillation and silicic acid adsorption chromatography, and identified through gas chromatography and infrared spectroscopy.

Lactones obtained had a peach-like flavor, and it was suggested that lactones were important in heated beef fat as the flavor compounds.  相似文献

Abstract

To develop naphthyridine derivatives as anticancer candidates, pharmacokinetic (PK) evaluations of 10 novel derivatives of 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1-proparagyl-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxamide, with potent anticancer activity were done using in vitro ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion) and pharmacokinetic--pharmcodynamic (PK/PD) assays. Only derivatives 5, 6, 9 and 10 showed better metabolic stability, solubility, permeability, partition coefficient and cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibition values. PK of derivatives 5, 6, 9 and 10 in rat showed comparable PK profile for derivative 5 (C0?=?6.98?µg/mL) and 6 (C0?=?6.61?µg/mL) with no detectable plasma levels for derivatives 9 and 10 at 5.0?mg/kg i.v. dose. PK/PD assay of derivatives 5 and 6 in tumor-bearing mice (TBM) showed comparable PK but tumor plasma index (TPI) of derivative 6 (4.02) was better than derivative 5 (2.50), suggesting better tumor uptake of derivative 6. Derivative 6, as lead compound, showed highest tumor growth inhibition (TGI) value of 33.6% in human ovary cancer xenograft model.  相似文献

Summary The effects of varying concentrations of 2,4-dinitrophenol on the oxidation of a series of saturated, aliphatic fatty acids byPs. aeruginosa were studied. The oxidation of C4, C6, C8, C10, C12, C13, C14 and C16 acids is stimulated by certain concentrations of this inhibitor. However, the concentration of 2,4-dinitrophenol which causes stimulation of oxygen uptake with capric acid does not produce an increase in numbers of the organisms in a medium containing the fatty acid as the sole carbon source. This investigation was supported by a Fellowship from the Anderson Oil and Chemical Company, Inc., Portland, Connecticut.  相似文献

The structure and composition of the cutin monomers from the flower petals of Vicia faba were determined by hydrogenolysis (LiAlH4) or deuterolysis (LiAlD4) followed by thin layer chromatography and combined gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The major components were 10, 16-dihydroxyhexadecanoic acid (79.8%), 9, 16-dihydroxyhexadecanoic acid (4.2%), 16-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid (4.2%), 18-hydroxyoctadecanoic acid (1.6%), and hexadecanoic acid (2.4%). These results show that flower petal cutin is very similar to leaf cutin of V. faba. Developing petals readily incorporated exogenous [1-14C]palmitic acid into cutin. Direct conversion of the exogeneous acid into 16-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid, 10, 16-dihydroxy-, and 9, 16-dihydroxyhexadecanoic acid was demonstrated by radio gas-liquid chromatography of their chemical degradation products. About 1% of the exogenous [1-14C]palmitic acid was incorporated into C27, C29, and C31n-alkanes, which were identified by combined gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry as the major components of the hydrocarbons of V. faba flowers. The radioactivity distribution among these three alkanes (C27, 15%; C29, 48%; C31, 38%) was similar to the per cent composition of the alkanes (C27, 12%; C29, 43%; C31, 44%). [1-14C]Stearic acid was also incorporated into C27, C29, and C31n-alkanes in good yield (3%). Trichloroacetate, which has been postulated to be an inhibitor of fatty acid elongation, inhibited the conversion of [1-14C]stearic acid to alkanes, and the inhibition was greatest for the longer alkanes. Developing flower petals also incorporated exogenous C28, C30, and C32 acids into alkanes in 0.5% to 5% yields. [G-3H]n-octacosanoic acid (C28) was incorporated into C27, C29, and C31n-alkanes. [G-3H]n-triacontanoic acid (C30) was incorporated mainly into C29 and C31 alkanes, whereas [9, 10, 11-3H]n-dotriacontanoic acid (C32) was converted mainly to C31 alkane. Trichloroacetate inhibited the conversion of the exogenous acids into alkanes with carbon chains longer than the exogenous acid, and at the same time increased the amount of the direct decarboxylation product formed. These results clearly demonstrate direct decarboxylation as well as elongation and decarboxylation of exogenous fatty acids, and thus constitute the most direct evidence thus far obtained for an elongation-decarboxylation mechanism for the biosynthesis of alkanes.  相似文献

The plum cankerworm moth, Cystidia couaggaria couaggaria (Geometridae: Ennominae), is a defoliator of Chinese plum trees (Prunus mume). The pheromone components of the female were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) with an electro-antennographic (EAG) detector and GC coupled with mass spectrometry. The crude pheromone extract included several EAG-active components, i.e., trienyl, dienyl, and saturated hydrocarbons, with a C21–C25 straight chain. The characteristic mass spectra indicated the unsaturated hydrocarbons to be (3Z,6Z,9Z)-3,6,9-trienes and (6Z,9Z)-6,9-dienes. In the fields, mixtures of the synthetic C21 and C23 trienes in a ratio of 2:3 and 1:4 successfully attracted males of this diurnal species during daytime. While the male antennae responded to the C25 triene and saturated hydrocarbons, their synergistic effects were not observed on the male attraction in the fields. Addition of the C21 diene interestingly inhibited the activity of the triene mixture. Males of Cystidia truncangulata, a sympatric diurnal congener of C. c. couaggaria, showed similar EAG responses to the unsaturated hydrocarbons, but no C. truncangulata males were attracted by the lures tested for C. c. couaggaria males, indicating that the identified hydrocarbons comprised the species-specific pheromone of C. c. couaggaria females.  相似文献

Suberin from the roots of carrots (Daucus carota), parsnip (Pastinaca sativa), rutabaga (Brassica napobrassica), turnip (Brassica rapa), red beet (Beta vulgaris), and sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) was isolated by a combination of chemical and enzymatic techniques. Finely powdered suberin was depolymerized with 14% BF3 in methanol, and soluble monomers (20-50% of suberin) were fractionated into phenolic (<10%) and aliphatic (13-35%) fractions. The aliphatic fractions consisted mainly of ω-hydroxyacids (29-43%), dicarboxylic acids (16-27%), fatty acids (4-18%), and fatty alcohols (3-6%). Each fraction was subjected to combined gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Among the fatty acids very long chain acids (>C20) were the dominant components in all six plants. In the alcohol fraction C18, C20, C22, and C24 saturated primary alcohols were the major components. C16 and C18 dicarboxylic acids were the major dicarboxylic acids of the suberin of all six plants and in all cases octadec-9-ene-1, 18-dioic acid was the major component except in rutabaga where hexadecane-1, 16-dioic acid was the major dicarboxylic acid. The composition of the ω-hydroxyacid fraction was quite similar to that of the dicarboxylic acids; 18-hydroxy-octadec-9-enoic acid was the major component in all plants except rutabaga, where equal quantities of 16-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid and 18-hydroxyoctadec-9-enoic acid (42% each) were found. Compounds which would be derived from 18-hydroxyoctadec-9-enoic acid and octadec-9-ene-1, 18-dioic acid by epoxidation, and epoxidation followed by hydration of the epoxide, were also detected in most of the suberin samples. The monomer composition of the six plants showed general similarities but quite clear taxonomic differences.  相似文献

Pseudomonas sp. 61-3 (isolated from soil) produced a polyester consisting of 3-hydroxybutyric acid (3HB) and of medium-chain-length 3-hydroxyalkanoic acids (3HA) of C6, C8, C10 and C12, when sugars of glucose, fructose and mannose were fed as the sole carbon source. The polyester produced was a blend of homopolymer and copolymer, which could be fractionated with boiling acetone. The acetone-insoluble fraction of the polyester was a homopolymer of 3-hydroxybutyrate units [poly (3HB)], while the acetone-soluble fraction was a copolymer [poly(3HB-co-3HA)] containing both short- and medium-chain-length 3-hydroxyalkanoate units ranging from C4 to C12:44 mol% 3-hydroxybutyrate, 5 mol% 3-hydroxyhexanoate, 21 mol% 3-hydroxyoctanoate, 25 mol% 3-hydroxydecanoate, 2 mol% 3-hydroxydodecanoate and 3 mol% 3-hydroxy-5-cis-dodecenoate. The copolyester was shown to be a random copolymer of 3-hydroxybutyrate and medium-chain-length 3-hydroxyalkanoate units by analysis of the 13C-NMR spectrum. The poly(3HB) homopolymer and poly (3HB-co-3HA) copolymer were produced simultaneously within cells from glucose in the absence of any nitrogen source, which suggests that Pseudomonas sp. 61-3 has two types of polyhydroxy-alkanoate syntheses with different substrate specificities.

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) was purified from leaves of four species of Alternanthera differing in their photosynthetic carbon metabolism: Alternanthera sessilis (C3), A. pungens (C4), A. ficoides and A. tenella (C3-C4 intermediates or C3-C4). The activity and properties of PEPC were examined at limiting (0.05 mM) or saturating (10 mM) bicarbonate concentrations. The Vmax as well as Km values (for Mg2+ or PEP) of PEPC from A. ficoides and A. tenella (C3-C4 intermediates) were in between those of C3 (A. sessilis) and C4 species (A. pungens). Similarly, the sensitivity of PEPC to malate (an inhibitor) or G-6-P (an activator) of A. ficoides and A. tenella (C3-C4) was also of intermediate status between those of C3 and C4 species of A. sessilis and A. pungens, respectively. In all the four species, the maximal activity (Vmax), affinity for PEP (Km), and the sensitivity to malate (KI) or G-6-P (KA) of PEPC were higher at 10 mM bicarbonate than at 0.05 mM bicarbonate. Again, the sensitivity to bicarbonate of PEPC from C3-C4 intermediates was in between those of C3- and C4-species. Thus the characteristics of PEPC of C3-C4 intermediate species of Alternanthera are intermediate between C3- and C4-type, in both their kinetic and regulatory properties. Bicarbonate could be an important modulator of PEPC, particularly in C4 plants. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献
