嗜热四膜虫接合生殖后期皮层细胞骨架蛋白的研究

用秋水仙素和细胞松驰素B处理接合期的嗜热四膜虫,以观察其对接合生殖期,尤其是接合后期的嗜热四膜虫皮层细胞骨架蛋白的影响,用秋水仙素处理的试验组的皮层细胞骨架蛋白组分中34KD、37KD、46KD和57KD蛋白的含量有明显改变,而用细胞松驰素B处理的试验组中40KD和74KD蛋白的含量改变较大。根据相关文献,作者推测34KD、37KD、46KD、57KD蛋白是微管蛋白,而40KD和74KD可能是微丝蛋白。这些蛋白对嗜热四膜虫接合过程中的形态发生的重要作用有等进一步研究。

用非离子去垢剂抽提获得的小游仆虫皮层细胞骨架的构形

由扫描电镜术显示,应用非离子去垢剂抽提获得的小游仆虫(Euplotes grocilis)皮层细胞骨架是由非纤毛区皮层骨架、纤毛器骨架及其附属纤维等构成的三维结构网架。各类细胞骨架以纤维物质为基本成分组成纤维网、纤维层、纤维束和纤维薄片等不同形态单元。其中：非纤毛区皮层骨架以表面纤维网和表膜下纤维层为形态单元位于细胞的外周层;纤毛器骨架中的口围带骨架、口侧膜骨架、额腹横棘毛骨架按各自的分布图式在皮层内定位,成为主要的皮层骨架结构。尽管这些纤毛器骨架显示不同的形态,但却具有相同的建构特征,即都是由纤毛器的毛基体、纤毛器托架和骨架附属纤维相互联系镶嵌在一起形成的相对独立的结构单元。分析推测,游仆虫皮层表面纤维网使细胞表面形成区域化结构,它也可能与细胞表面各部分的联系及其细胞与环境的相互作用有关;纤毛器骨架中各个纤毛器的毛基体复合结构可能对纤毛器托架和骨架附属纤维等起到微管组织中心的作用。     

原生动物贻贝棘尾虫微管胞器的荧光标记与显示

采用FLUTAX直接荧光标记和抗α微管蛋白抗体的间接免疫荧光标记显示,原生动物贻贝棘尾虫(Stylonychia mytilus)细胞微管胞器由口围带、波动膜、额腹横棘毛、左右缘棘毛、背纤毛等纤毛器微管骨架、纤毛器基部附属微管和其他皮层微管骨架组成。纤毛器微管骨架和基部附属微管按皮层纤毛模式定位;皮层左、右侧微管带和领肋壁微管等其他皮层微管构成细胞特定位置的皮层微管骨架,并可能为具有背腹分化的腹毛目纤毛虫所特有,对维持细胞背腹面的形态、支持附近纤毛器(如左、右缘棘毛)的运动起作用。本文较完整地阐述了其细胞骨架的三维构形,对于深入了解纤毛虫细胞微管骨架的结构和分布特征,进一步揭示微管类胞器的功能是有意义的。     

6s微管蛋白的提纯及其抗体的制备

一、前言细胞骨架中主要结构组分之一是微管系统。现已知与组成微管有关的蛋白质有两大类:微管蛋白和微管伴随蛋白(MAPs),前者中包括α-微管蛋白和β-微管蛋白,其二聚体称为6s微管蛋白,而后者则包括高分子微管伴随蛋白(HMW)和分子量较小的tau蛋白,近年来对这些蛋白质的性质、提纯和其抗体的制备等研究都有相当大的进展。方法学上利用免疫荧光和免疫酶标促进了对细胞的微管系统及细胞骨架整体的了解。我们曾对组成微管的蛋白做过一些工作。本文报道我们在以前工作的

细胞骨架参与调控细胞壁形成的研究进展

植物细胞壁是地球上最丰富的可再生资源,也是植物细胞区别于动物细胞的特殊结构之一,它与细胞质膜及细胞骨架共同构成了植物细胞表面的细胞壁-质膜-细胞骨架连续体.细胞壁为植物细胞提供外部支撑结构,细胞骨架则在细胞内构成内部网络支架结构.近年来,有关植物细胞骨架调控细胞壁形成的研究有了很大进展,本文从细胞骨架参与细胞壁物质膜泡运输、细胞骨架调控纤维素微纤丝沉积、细胞骨架调控次生细胞壁加厚以及细胞骨架参与细胞壁形成信号的调控等方面进行了阐述和总结,并对今后的研究方向进行了展望.     

皮动蛋白及微丝相关蛋白2/3复合物介导的细胞运动的分子机制

皮动蛋白(cortactin)是一种含有特殊重复序列结构域的微丝肌动蛋白结合蛋白,它直接参与了细胞皮层(cortex)微丝细胞骨架的组建。它又是细胞内Src类酪氨酸蛋白激酶的主要底物之一,代表了一类高度保守的胞内皮层信号蛋白质家族。近几年来,对于细胞运动分子机制的研究取得很大进展,利用组织培养细胞进行的体外实验证明。皮动蛋白能够活化微丝相关蛋白2／3复合物(actin related protein 2／3 complex,Arp2／3 complex),调控皮层微丝细胞骨架的组装,在细胞运动过程中具有重要作用。     

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
