Modes of aggregation fo alanine-, norvaline- and valine-contaiing dpepetides with the general formula R 1? C 1O 1? N 2H 2? CHR 2? C 2O 2? N 3H 3? R 3 have been studied in CCl 4 solution by using infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies. Solutions of the pure L isomer and of the racemic mixture do not give identical data. At a given concentration, the racemic mixtrue is more aggregated than the pure enantiomer, and the difference, negligible in the case of alanine derivative, increases wiht the bulkiness of the side cahin R 2. The results show that a selective interaction takes place between enantiomeric molecules, resulting ina dimer associating tow inverse configurated C 5 conformers. The stabilizaion of this dimer proceeds from two symmetrical and intermolecular H 3 … O 1 hydrogen bondings. 相似文献

The statistical analysis ( Q mode) of the microfauna of 135 bottom and core samples from the Mediterranean provides evidence of the predominating local conditions in each of the two basins. Temperature, which plays a primary role in the distribution of foraminiferal species, only takes second place when one considers the regrouping of the layers. Once the temperature factor is identified, its variations provide a precise climatic curve with the advantage of not having to make any subjective interpretation of the assemblages. RésuméL'analyse en mode Q des microfaunes de 135 échantillons de Méditerrannée (niveaux de surface et carottages) met en évidence la prédominance des conditions locales propres à chacun des deux bassins. La température, qui joue un rôle primordial dans la répartition des espèces de Foraminifères, n'intervient qu'en second lieu lorsqu'on considère les regroupements des niveaux. Une fois le facteur thermique identifié, ses variations fournissent une courbe climatique précise qui présente l'avantage de ne nécessiter aucune interprétation subjective des assemblages. 相似文献

Sibling species groups are suitable models for the understanding of inter‐ and intraspecific processes in taxonomy and biogeography. We analysed 262 individuals from the Alps of the Coenonympha arcania/gardetta species complex by allozyme electrophoresis. These taxa showed high variance amongst populations ( FST: 0.391) and strong intertaxon genetic differentiation ( FCT: 0.376). Although morphologically similar, Coenonympha gardetta and Coenonympha arcania clearly differ in their genetic characteristics; the morphologically intermediate taxa Coenonympha darwiniana darwiniana and Coenonympha darwiniana macromma are genetically well distinguished from each other and the two other taxa. Coenonympha arcania and C. d. macromma most probably share a common ancestor and evolved by cladogenesis, whereas the taxonomic situation of C. d. darwiniana is still unresolved: This taxon might be the result of hybridization between C. arcania and C. gardetta or it might have a common ancestor together with C. gardetta. We suggest species rank for all four taxa. The distribution of genetic diversity of these populations and the differentiation amongst populations suggest rather different biogeographical scenarios: C. arcania most probably is of Mediterranean origin with postglacial range expansion northwards; C. gardetta survived the last ice age in peripheral refugia of the Alps and has spread all over this high mountain system in the postglacial; C. darwiniana and C. macromma survived the Würm in geographic proximity to their actual distribution areas and only have performed moderate uphill translocations during postglacial warming. © 2010 The Linnean Society of London, Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2010, 159 , 890–904. 相似文献

Methyl 2-deoxy-3,5,6-tri- O-p-nitrobenzoyl-
- ribo-hexofuranoside was converted into the glycosyl halide which was then condensed with 2,4-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-pyrimidine in the presence of mercuric chloride to give, after alkaline methanolysis, 1-(2-deoxy-β-
- ribo-hexofuranosyl)uracil, in a yield too low for the reaction to be applied to deuterated compounds. Methyl 2-deoxy-
-allofuranoside-2- d was degraded into methyl 2-deoxy-
-arabinofuranoside-2- d. Its di- p-nitrobenzoate was converted into the glycosyl halide which was coupled with 2,4-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-pyrimidine to give, after alkaline hydrolysis, deuterated deoxyuridine. Thiationammonolysis of a mixture of the 3′,5′-di- p-nitrobenzoates of the latter compound and its anomer gave the corresponding deoxycytidines. Comparison of the n.m.r. spectra of these compounds to that of deuterated deoxycytidine, prepared by the enzymic reduction of cytidine 5′-pyrophosphate with the Escherichia coli system in the presence of deuterium oxide confirmed that the substitution of a hydroxyl group by a hydrogen atom proceeds with retention of configuration. 相似文献

Proton magnetic resonance spectra of model dipeptide molecules R 1–C′ 1O 1–N 2H 2–CHR 2–C′ 2O 2–N 3H 3–R 3 in CCl 4 solutions exhibit splited signals when investigating on mixtures of L and D enantiomers differing from the racemic composition. The major effect is observed on amide proton signals which are the ones most sensitive to the ratio of aggregation. The stereoselective dimerization of enantiomeric molecules in the so-called C5 conformational state is shown to be responsible for such a phenomenon, the intensity of which depends on the bulkiness of the side chain R 2. A theoretical approach is proposed which gives predictions in close agreement with our own experimental findings. 相似文献

Résumé En l'absence de données précises ou concordantes sur la fécondité d' Oscinella pusilla, une étude expérimentale est menée sur des couples isolés, à l'aide d'un dispositif permettant de recueillir commodément la totalité de la ponte.La vie imaginale à 21°C dure en moyenne 32 jours et présente une période reproductrice importante de l'ordre de 25 jours. Durant cette période, la fécondité moyenne est de 83 ufs. Les résultats observés sont complétés par l'étude de dissections d'ovaires.Le dépot des ufs, pendant la période reproductrice, a lieu selon un certain rythme correspondant à l'activité ovarienne.Un rythme nycthéméral de l'activité de ponte est mis en évidence.Enfin, il existe entre la longévité et la fécondité une certaine relation.
Summary Since no precise or consistent information on oviposition and especially on fecundity of Oscinella pusilla is available, we have undertaken such a study of this pest of cereals. The fecundity observed previously in the laboratory (25 to 30 eggs) is incompatible with the rates of increase under natural conditions.Here isolated mating pairs were held in an apparatus allowing easy collection of all eggs laid. The mean adult life was 32 days at 21°C, with an oviposition period of about 25 days and a mean of 83 eggs laid. Dissection of ovaries was also done, in order to analyse the causes of the high variability observed.There is a rhythmicity in oviposition, that becomes less clear as the females grow older. A daily rhythm also exists, 90% of the eggs being laid during the 8 hours in the middle of the 16-hour period of illumination.There is a weak positive correlation between fecundity and longevity. 相似文献

Commercial aqueous 25 per cent glutaraldehyde solutions contain no stable derivative of this aldehyde, but compounds of variable molecular weight which easily revert to glutaraldehyde. The effect of pH on the reaction of glutaraldehyde with amino acids and on the stability of the products under acid conditions, shows the importance of the structure modification of the dialdehyde which occurs when pH increases, and even leads to precipitation in highly alkaline solutions. This precipitate results from aldol condensation of glutaraldehyde molecules. It contains aldehyd groups conjugated with ethylenic double bonds. Such a structure reacts with amino groups to give an imino bond, stabilized by resonance with the ethylenic bond, and does not undergo Michael-type addition reactions.Therefore, glutaraldehyde does not react with proteins under its free form, but as an unsaturated polymer, which gives imino bonds stabilized by conjugation. 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 C 6 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 C 1 and C 6 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 C 2, C 3, C 4, and C 5 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

1. A glycoprotein: fucosyl-transferase activity was demonstrated in sheep cerebral cortex, using desialylated fetuin as exogenous acceptor and detergent Trition X 100 for solubilization. 2. Addition of Triton X 100 to the membrane suspension gave first an activation then a solubilization of the cerebral fucosyl-transferase. 3. Hydrophobic chromatography was investigated for purification of the enzyme. Binding was effective using alkyl-agarose chromatographic columns with two or more than two atoms of carbon, but elution was only possible with ethyl and butyl-agarose. 4. Combination of subcellular fractionation and hydrophobic chromatography on ethylagarose led to a 30 fold purification. 5. After ethyl-agarose chromatography, some properties of fucosyl-transferase were studied: the optimal temperature was 25°C. The optimum pH was about neutrality. Light activation was observed with Mn2+ concentration below 1 mM. 6. Homogeneity was tested using Ultrogel chromatography, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation. 7. It was concluded that ethyl-agarose hydrophobic chromatography easily bind a few solubilized proteins (about 20 per cent of the ST supernatant). When elution was performed, these proteins, including fucosyl-transferase, were released from ethyl-agarose columns as a stable aggregate, only dissociated with lower ionic strength. Ethyl-agarose fraction (eluted with KCl 120 mM) showed homogeneity: — with Ultrogel AcA 22 chromatography (Mw = 300.000). — with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis without S.D.S. — with the analytical ultracentrifugo giving Mw = 280.000; S20 = 10. But after dialysis overnight against a buffer without KCl, ultracentrifugation technics showed no homogeneity. Futhermore, SDS gel electrophoresis gave more than four bands. 相似文献

4-Methylumbelliferyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-
-glucopyranoside, 2-acetamido-4- O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-
-glucopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-β-
-glucopyranoside (di- N-acetyl-β-chitobioside), and O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-
-glucopyranosyl)-(1→4)- O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-
-glucopyranosyl)-(1→4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-
-glucopyranoside (tri- N-acetyl-β-chitotrioside) were obtained in good yield from the corresponding peracetylated glycosyl chlorides by condensation with the sodium salt of 4-methylumbelliferone in N,N-dimethylformamide. The trisaccharide glycoside is hydrolyzed by lysozyme and is, therefore, a convenient substrate for this enzyme; the 4-methylumbelliferone produced can be determined by the increase of the fluorescence intensity at 442 nm. The intensity of the fluorescence of 4-methylumbelliferyl tri- N-acetyl-β-chitotrioside is enhanced upon binding with lysozyme without modification of the position of the absorption maximum. The binding constant and the rate of hydrolysis of the trisaccharide glycoside by lysozyme are higher than those obtained with p-nitrophenyl tri- N-acetyl-β-chitotrioside. 相似文献

A high resolution autoradiographic study of the incorporation of tritiated uridine and amino acids by the mitochondrial groups, which are typical of most of germ cells at the beginning of gametogenesis, has been made on tench spermatocytes. By this technique, we confirm the partially proteinacious composition of the intermitochondrial “cement”; and for the first time, the presence of RNA in the “cement” is demonstrated by autoradiography. Moreover, a study of the kinetics of the incorporation of both precursors makes likely the hypothesis that at least a part of the “cement” derived from nucleocytoplasmic transfer. Since the biogenesis of mitochondria results from the complementary functioning of the two protein synthesic systems, the cytoplasmic one, which is preponderant, and the mitochondrial one, the mitochondrial groups seem to be the direct visualization of the contribution of the nuclear genome to the edification of new mitochondria.L'étude par autoradiographie à haute résolution de l'incorporation d'uridine et d'acides aminés tritiés par les groupements mitochondriaux, formations caractéristiques de la plupart des cellules germinales en début de gamétogenèse, a été effectuée dans les spermatocytes de tanche. Elle permet de confirmer la nature partiellement protéique du ciment intermitochondrial, et de mettre enévidence, pour la première fois par autoradiographie, la présence d'ARN dans ce ciment . En outre, l'étude cinétique de l'incorporation des deux catégories de précurseurs rend fort vraisemblable l'hypothèse de l'origine d'une partie au moins du ciment par transfert nucléocytoplasmique. La biogenèse des mitochondries résultant du fonctionnement complémentaire de deux systèmes de synthèse protéique, l'un prépondérant, cytoplasmique, l'autre minoritaire, mitochondrial, les groupements mitochondriaux semblent bien être une visualisation directe de la contribution du génome nucléaire à l'édification de mitochondries nouvelles. 相似文献
