野生杏和栽培杏的遗传多样性和遗传结构分析

利用SSR分子标记结合荧光毛细管电泳检测技术,研究了野生杏和栽培杏的遗传多样性和遗传结构,结果显示:27个SSR位点,平均每个位点检测到17.82个等位基因(Na)和7.44个有效等位基因(Ne),平均Shannon's信息指数(I)为2.23,平均期望杂合度(He)和观察杂合度(Ho)分别为0.70和0.52。基于SSR位点,群体水平上平均等位基因数、有效等位基因数、期望杂合度、观察杂合度和Shannon's信息指数分别为6.59、4.15、0.70、0.53和1.50,说明我国杏种质资源遗传多样性丰富,其中野生杏资源遗传多样性明显高于栽培杏资源,野生杏中西伯利亚杏种质遗传多样性最高且具有较多的特异等位基因,而栽培杏中仁用杏遗传多样性最低,特有等位基因较少。聚类分析将供试159份种质分为4组。群体遗传结构分析将159份种质划分为5个类群,分类情况与传统形态指标划分基本一致。通过本研究可知,我国杏资源遗传多样性丰富,遗传结构较为复杂;西伯利亚杏与栽培杏亲缘关系较远;野生普通杏与栽培杏具有类似的遗传结构,推测野生普通杏为栽培杏原始种;仁用杏遗传多样性较低,遗传背景狭窄。本研究结果可为杏资源新品种选育及持续利用提供重要的理论依据。

基于核基因和叶绿体基因序列的杏属系统发育分析——探讨洪平杏的起源和亲缘关系

洪平杏(Armeniaca hongpingensis C. L. Li)是杏属的一个狭域分布种,基于形态观察被推测为杏(A.vulgaris Lam.)和梅(A. mume Sieb.)的天然杂交种,但目前尚无该种与杏、梅亲缘关系的分子系统学研究。本文以洪平杏的成株和实生苗以及包括杏、梅在内的6种(含1变种)杏属植物为研究材料,分别采用核基因(ITS和SBEI)和叶绿体基因(mat K和ycf1b)序列构建系统发育树,并采用mat K、ycf1b和SBEI基因序列构建单倍型网络图,探讨该物种与杏、梅及杏梅(A. mume Sieb. var. bungo Makino)之间的亲缘关系。基于核基因和叶绿体基因序列分别构建的系统发育树均显示,洪平杏的成株及其全部实生苗个体单独聚为一支,且具有较高的支持率(分别为99/79、71/81),独立于杏属其他种之外。而基于核基因ITS序列的系统发育分析结果表明,洪平杏除极少数成株与杏、杏梅聚为一支外,其余所有成株与实生苗聚为2大支(支持率分别为0.82和0.97),而没有克隆的与梅聚在一起。单倍型分析结果表明,该物种的成株与实生苗在SBEI和ycf1b基因序列中均未检测到杏或梅的单倍型,仅有少数(2/9)的实生苗个体在叶绿体mat K基因序列中检测到杏的单倍型。研究结果不支持将洪平杏定为杏和梅的天然杂交种的观点,推测洪平杏应为一个独立的物种,与杏之间的亲缘关系更近并且存在可检测到的基因流。

Terminal amino acid sequences and proteolytic cleavage sites of mouse mammary tumor virus env gene products

The mature envelope glycoproteins of mouse mammary tumor virus (gp52 and gp36) were isolated by reversed-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of gp36 was determined for 28 residues. The C-terminal amino acid sequences of gp52 and gp36 were determined by carboxypeptidase digestion. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of gp52 has been reported previously (L. O. Arthur et al., J. Virol. 41:414-422, 1982). These data were aligned with the predicted amino acid sequence of the env gene product obtained by translation of the DNA sequence (S. M. S. Redmond and C. Dickson, Eur. Mol. Biol. Org. J. 2:125-131, 1983). The amino acid sequences of the mature viral proteins were in agreement with the predicted amino acid sequence of the env gene product over the regions of alignment. This alignment showed the sites of proteolytic cleavages of the env gene product leading to the mature viral envelope glycoproteins. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of gp52 starts at residue 99 of the predicted structure indicating proteolytic cleavage of a signal peptide. A dipeptide (Lys-Arg) is excised between the C-terminus of gp52 and the N-terminus of gp36. The C-terminal amino acid sequence of gp36 is identical to the sequence predicted by the codons immediately preceding the termination codon for the env gene product. The data show that there is no proteolytic processing at the C-terminal of the murine mammary tumor virus env gene product and that the env gene coding region extends into the long terminal repeat.     

Rat gastric prepepsinogen: in vitro synthesis and partial amino-terminal signal sequence

The major translation product of rat gastric mucosa RNA in a wheat germ cell-free system was identified as prepepsinogen by electrophoretic analysis of its immunoprecipitate on sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gels and amino-terminal sequence determination. The translation product containing radioactive amino acids, purified by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, was shown to have an amino-terminal extension peptide comprising 16 amino acid residues. A partial amino acid sequence of this extension peptide is as follows: Met-X-X-Met-Val-Val-X-Leu-Leu-X-Leu-X-Leu-Leu-X-X-pepsinogen.

Amino acid consumption in naïve and recombinant CHO cell cultures: producers of a monoclonal antibody

Most commercial media for mammalian cell culture are designed to satisfy the amino acid requirements for cell growth, but not necessarily those for recombinant protein production. In this study, we analyze the amino acid consumption pattern in naïve and recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell cultures. The recombinant model we chose was a CHO-S cell line engineered to produce a monoclonal antibody. We report the cell concentration, product concentration, and amino acid concentration profiles in naïve and recombinant cell cultures growing in CD OptiCHO™ medium with or without amino acid supplementation with a commercial supplement (CHO CD EfficientFeed™ B). We quantify and discuss the amino acid demands due to cell growth and recombinant protein production during long term fed batch cultivation protocols. We confirmed that a group of five amino acids, constituting the highest mass fraction of the product, shows the highest depletion rates and could become limiting for product expression. In our experiments, alanine, a non-important mass constituent of the product, is in high demand during recombinant protein production. Evaluation of specific amino acid demands could be of great help in the design of feeding/supplementation strategies for recombinant mammalian cell cultures.     

氨基酸生产和海洋生物的氨基酸资源开发

氨基酸在医药、食品、饲料等领域有着极为重要和广泛的用途,世界上氨基酸总需求量以５～１０％递增,市场竞争十分激烈。生物资源提取、化学合成、生物合成和综合法是生产氨基酸的４种技术,目前的发展趋势为生物合成和综合法,特别是将现代生物工程技术应用于氨基酸生产。另外,氨基酸生产领域另一个新的倾向是海洋生物氨基酸资源的开发和应用,尤其是海洋生物所产生的特殊氨基酸、肽及其衍生物的开发,同时,综合利用海产品加工后的废弃物来生产氨基酸也受到重视。     

Free amino acid quantification by LC-MS/MS using derivatization generated isotope-labelled standards

The further development of derivatizing reagents for plasma amino acid quantification by tandem mass spectrometry is described. The succinimide ester of 4-methylpiperazineacetic acid (MPAS), the iTRAQ reagent, was systematically modified to improve tandem mass spectrometer (MS/MS) product ion intensity. 4-Methylpiperazinebutyryl succinimide (MPBS) and dimethylaminobutyryl succinimide (DMABS) afforded one to two orders of magnitude greater MS/MS product ion signal intensity than the MPAS derivative for simple amino acids. CD(3) analogues of the modified derivatizing reagents were evaluated for preparation of amino acid isotope-labelled quantifying standards. Acceptable accuracy and precision was obtained with d(3)-DMABS as the amino acid standards derivatizing reagent. The product ion spectra of the DMABS amino acid derivatives are diagnostic for structural isomers including valine/norvaline, alanine/sarcosine and leucine/isoleucine. Improved analytical sensitivity and specificity afforded by these derivatives may help to establish liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with derivatization generated isotope-labelled standards a viable alternative to amino acids analysers.     

Molecular cloning, characterization, and nucleotide sequence of an extracellular amylase gene from Aeromonas hydrophila.

The structural gene for excreted amylase from Aeromonas hydrophila JMP636 has been cloned within a 2.1-kilobase SmaI fragment of DNA. The amylase gene is transcribed from its own promoter in Escherichia coli, producing a gene product of Mr 49,000. The amylase gene product is secreted to the periplasm of E. coli; however, it is not excreted. Nucleotide sequencing revealed an open reading frame of 1,392 base pairs corresponding to a protein of 464 amino acid residues. A potential signal peptide of 21 amino acid residues is present at the NH2 terminal of the predicted protein. Three regions of homology with other procaryotic and eucaryotic alpha-amylases were detected within the predicted amino acid sequence.     

Purification and characterization of the active serine: pyruvate aminotransferase of rat liver mitochondria expressed in Escherichia coli

In the previous study (Oda, T., et al. (1985) Eur. J. Biochem. 150, 415-421), we isolated a cDNA clone which expressed in Escherichia coli a specific size of product having the activity of rat liver serine:pyruvate aminotransferase (SPTm). This specific product (SPT10) was purified to homogeneity through three different column chromatographies. The amino acid composition and N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified enzyme agreed with those predicted from the nucleotide sequence of cDNA and showed that SPT10 consists of the whole amino acid sequence of mature SPTm and several extra amino acid residues at the N-terminus. The catalytic and physical properties of SPT10, such as substrate specificity, Km for alpha-keto acids, electric charge, and quaternary structure, were all very similar to those of SPTm. Using several cDNA clones which lack a 5'-terminal sequence corresponding to a portion of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of SPTm, we examined the expression profile of the specific product in bacteria transformed with each cDNA clone. The products encoded by these cDNAs were segregated into inclusion bodies and were neither catalytically active nor easily solubilized by sonication. In contrast, the inclusion bodies were not formed in the bacteria transformed with the cDNA clone for SPT10.     

Amino acid transport and metabolism in nitrogen-starved cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Nitrogen-starved yeast derepress a general amino acid permease which transports basic and hydrophobic amino acids. Although both groups of amino acids are metabolized, the derivatives of the basic amino acids are retained by the cells, whereas those of the hydrophobic amino acids are released as acidic and neutral deaminated derivatives. The release of the deaminated derivatives of the hydrophobic amino acids only occurs in the presence of glucose, which presumably produces amino acceptors. The accumulation of intracellular amino acids results in trans-inhibition of the uptake of exogenous amino acids whether the intracellular amino acid is a basic amino acid or the product of intracellular transamination from a hydrophobic amino acid. Variation of permease and transaminase activity was measured during growth under repressed (ammonia-grown) and derepressed (proline-grown) conditions. Maximum levels for both activities occurs at the mid-exponential phase.     

Insights into polymer versus oligosaccharide synthesis: mutagenesis and mechanistic studies of a novel levansucrase from Bacillus megaterium

A novel levansucrase was identified in the supernatant of a cell culture of Bacillus megaterium DSM319. In order to test for the contribution of specific amino acid residues to levansucrase catalysis, the wild-type enzyme along with 16 variants based on sequence alignments and structural information were heterologously produced in Escherichia coli. The purified enzymes were characterized kinetically and the product spectrum of each variant was determined. Comparison of the X-ray structures of the levansucrases from Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis and Gram-negative Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus in conjunction with the corresponding product spectra identified crucial amino acid residues responsible for product specificity and catalysis. Highly conserved regions such as the previously described RDP and DXXER motifs were identified as being important. Two crucial structural differences localized at amino acid residues Arg370 and Asn252 were of high relevance in polymer compared with oligosaccharide synthesis.
