Novel O-serotypes were revealed among Pseudomonas syringae pv. garcae strains by using a set of mouse monoclonal antibodies specific to the lipopolysaccharide O-polysaccharide. Structural studies showed that the O-polysaccharide of P. syringae pv. garcae NCPPB 2708 is a hitherto unknown linear L-rhamnan lacking strict regularity and having two oligosaccharide repeating units I and II, which differ in the position of substitution in one of the rhamnose residues and have the following structures: I:3)--L Rha (12)-- L Rha (12)--L-Rha-(13)--L Rha (1;II: 2)--L-Rha-(13) -L-Rha-(12)--L-Rha-(13)--L Rha (1.The branched O-polysaccharides of P. syringae pv. garcae ICMP 8047 and NCPPB 588T have the same L-rhamnan backbone with repeating units I and II and a lateral chain of 14)- or 13)-linked residues of 3-acetamido-3,6-dideoxy-D-galactose (D-Fuc3NAc). Several monoclonal antibody epitopes associated with the L-rhamnan backbone or the lateral -D-Fuc3NAc residues were characterized.Translated from Mikrobiologiya, Vol. 73, No. 6, 2004, pp. 777–789.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Ovod, Zdorovenko, Shashkov, Kocharova, Knirel. 相似文献

Summary Long-range physical maps of the small multigene family of the malt -amylase genes (-Amy-1) located on the long arms of wheat chromosomes 6A (the -Amy-A1 locus) and 6B (-Amy-B1) were generated by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analysis. By using three methylation-sensitive rare-cutter restriction endonucleases, NotI, NruI and MluI, and an -Amy-1 cDNA probe and four gene-specific genomic probes from the -Amy-B1 locus, the size of the -Amy-B1 locus was estimated to be about 700 kb and of the -Amy-B1 locus to be about approximately 4300 kb. These two maps indicate clustering of GC-rich and C-methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme recognition sites. At least five regions reminiscent of CpG islands are apparent in -Amy-B1, and three in -Amy-A1. Correlation between recombination frequency and physical distance within the -Amy-B1 locus suggests that 1 cM approximates to 1 Mb in physical distance. 相似文献

Glycyrrhizic acid and its 30-methyl ester were conjugated with 2-amino-1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-2-deoxy--D-glucopyranose, 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl--D-glucopyranosyl amine, 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl--L-arabinopyranosyl amine, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy--D-glucopyranosyl amine, and -D-galactopyranosyl amine using N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and its mixtures with N-hydroxybenzotriazole. Structures of the conjugates were confirmed by IR, UV, 1H, and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The glycoconjugate with the residues of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy--D-glucopyranosyl amine in the carbohydrate part of its molecule exhibited antiviral activity (ID50 4 g/ml) toward the herpes simplex type 1 virus (HSV-1) in the VERO cell culture. Two compounds demonstrated anti-HIV-1 activity (50–70% inhibition of p24) in a culture of MT-4 cells at concentrations of 0.5–20 g/ml. 相似文献

Galactomannan, a heteropolysaccharide with a molecular weight of 1660 kDa, was isolated from the seed of Gleditsia ferox Desf., introduced in Russia, with a yield of 18.9%. Its aqueous solutions were optically active ([]D = +30.5°) and highly viscous ([] = 1430 ml/g). An analysis of the heteropolysaccharide using chemical, enzymatic, and chromatographic procedures showed that it consists of D-mannopyranose and D-galactopyranose residues (molar ratio, 2.54 : 1). The main chain of this galactomannan consists of 1,4--D-mannopyranose residues, 39.2% of which are substituted at C6 with single residues of -D-galactopyranose. The probability of occurrence of mannobiose units differentially substituted with galactose was determined by 13C-NMR data and equaled, respectively, 0.37, 0.47, and 0.16 for non-substituted Man–Man units, monosubstituted Gal(Man–Man) and (Man–Man)Gal units taken together, and for the disubstituted Gal(Man–Man)Gal units. 相似文献

Summary In the colonic epithelium of the chicken, glycoconjugates have been studied by means of selected histochemical methods of light and electron microscopy. According to the results obtained, most of the colonic goblet cells contained acidic and neutral glycoconjugates with sulphate and vicinal diol groupings, -D-mannose and -D-glucose residues and sialic acid-galactose dimers. These goblet cells were found to undergo changes in histochemical reactivity during upward migration along the crypts; -D-mannose and -D-glucose residues and terminal sialic acidgalactose dimers increased in amount. The striated border of the colonic columnar cells has, likewise, been found to contain such glycoconjugates as were similar in reactivity to those of the goblet cells. The histophysiological significances of glycoconjugates involved in the chicken colonic epithelium have been discussed with special reference to the functional activities of the carbohydrates. 相似文献

= 73.32°) and high viscosity ([] = 644 ml/g). Chemical analysis and 13C-NMR spectroscopy revealed the presence of D-mannopyranose and D-glucopyranose in the heteropolysaccharide at a molar ratio of 1.39 : 1. The linear backbone of its macromolecule consists of 1,4--D-mannopyranose residues. Single -D-galactose residues substitute 72% of the mannoses to form branches. 相似文献

Summary A genomic clone of a wheat -amylase gene (Amy3/33) was identified, on the basis of hybridisation properties, as different from -Amy1 and -Amy2 genes which had been characterised previously. The nucleotide sequence revealed that this gene has the normal sequence motifs of an active gene and an open reading frame interrupted by two introns. The protein sequence encoded by this open reading frame is recognisably similar to that of -amylase from the -Amy1 and -Amy2 genes and there is high sequence homology in all three proteins at the putative active sites and Ca++ binding region. In addition, the introns are at positions equivalent to the position of introns in the -Amy1 and -Amy2 genes. However, the sequence was less similar to -Amy1 and -Amy2 than these are to each other. Southern blot analysis showed that the Amy3/33 DNA is one of a small multigene family carried on a different chromosome (group 5) from either the -Amy1 or -Amy2 genes. A further difference from the -Amy1 and -Amy2 genes was the pattern of expression. Amy3/33 was expressed only in immature grains and, unlike the -Amy1 and -Amy2 genes, not at all in germinating aleurones. These data suggested therefore that this gene represents a third type of -amylase gene, not described before, which shares a common evolutionary ancestor with the -Amy1 and -Amy2 genes. 相似文献

The percentages of the -chain variant Hb G-Philadelphia (Hb G) or 2 68 AsnLys2 were evaluated in 84 adult and 18 newborn heterozygotes. These included members of three families who were studied in more detail by nucleic acid hybridization techniques. The adult heterozygotes fell in two categories, one with a higher proportion of Hb G [46.5±1.0% (SD), N=21] and another with lower values (33.9±3.4%, N=63). Among the newborn heterozygotes, two babies fell in the category with the higher proportion of Hb G while 16 babies gave values between 25 and 34%. Studies of -chain gene organization on the parents of one neonate with a Hb G level of 27% at birth and 37% at 8 months excluded the presence of chromosomes with triplicated -chain genes which could lead to the 0G/ genotype. Rather, these studies on five Hb G heterozygotes from three families confirmed the linkage between Hb G and a specific type of -thalassemia-2 associated with the presence of a 16-kbp Bgl II fragment which most probably carries the G locus since it has been found in 19 Hb G heterozygotes studied to date. The presence of an -thal-2 heterozygosity and three -chain genes (0G/) was confirmed among Hb G heterozygotes with lower proportions of this variant. It is likely that the even lower values found in some newborn could arise through defective assembly of G- dimers. The presence of an -thal-2 homozygosity and two active -chain genes, one on each chromosome (0G/0), was confirmed among heterozygotes with the higher proportion of Hb G. One of each of these categories was present in each of the three families investigated. This type of variability in the number of active -chain genes due to a heterozygosity or a homozygosity for -thalassemia-2 explains the trimodality of Hb S percentages among heterozygotes and the atypical hematological or biosynthetic features among patients with -thalassemia and sickle-cell syndromes.This research was supported by USPHS Research Grants HLB-05168 and HLB-15158 and by designated research funds of the Veterans Administration.

Summary The production of sex pheromones responsible for the induction of the sexual agglutination ability in the mutants of the mating type locus, mata1, mat1 and mat2, was examined. mata1 cells behaved just like wild-type MATa cells in the production of a pheromone and responsiveness to pheromone. On the other hand, mat1 cells showed neither a nor ability in the production of and the agglutination ability induction by sex pheromones. Cells carrying mat2 secreted a pheromone but not pheromone and showed the ability to inactivate pheromone. However, mat2 cells responded to neither a nor pheromone in the induction of sexual agglutionation ability. 相似文献

Summary Fifteen inbred lines of rye, F1 and F2 progenies from crosses between lines were studied using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Conventional genetic analysis of -amylase zymograms showed that the 19 bands detected in the endosperm of germinating caryopses were controlled by three linked structural loci and one independent modifying locus, which influenced the electrophoretic mobility of isozymes. Two codominant alleles were found at the -Amy1, -Amy2 structural loci and the M--Amy modifying locus while the -Amy3 locus had three alleles. Double-banded expression of the -amylase alleles was probably due to the simultaneous presence of modified and unmodified forms of isozymes on the zymogram.This work was supported by Polish Academy of Sciences under project MR-II/7 and was also a part of the author's PhD Thesis 相似文献

An open reading frame of the -subunit 1-205 residues (205) of human acetylcholine receptor (AchR) was amplified by PCR with pUC-AChR205 as the template and inserted into vector pMAL-c2X. The constructed pMAR205 was transferred into E. coli BL21 which were then grown in LB medium. The amount of soluble MBP-AChR205 protein reached about 25% of total soluble proteins from the cell lysate. Using amylose-affinity chromatography, about 35 mg MBP-AChR205 could be obtained from 1 l culture. Western blot analysis and ELISA showed that immunoreactivities of both MBP-AChR205 and AChR205 were similar to that of AChR -subunit from Torpedo.Revisions received 23 September 2004 相似文献

Summary Offspring production over the adult lifespan (b/M whereb is the yearly fledgling or offspring production and 1/M is the mean adult lifespan) is an approximate invariant within both birds and mammals. The two taxa differ, however, in that mammals have bothM and b as invariants (b/M = b/M) while birds do not ( is the age at first breeding). Birds have a surprising cancellation in that bothM andb are

Summary Growth of the fungus Penicillium charlesii G. Smith on glucose, minimal salts medium results in the appearance of -d-mannopyranosidase activity capable of hydrolyzing p-nitrophenyl--d-mannopyranoside. No activity is found until depletion of the carbon source, after which the enzyme activity rapidly increases in the mycelium. Prolonged incubation of the culture results in the appearance of small amounts of -mannosidase activity in the growth medium. The initial release of a mannose-containing polysaccharide into the medium precedes the appearance of -mannosidase by several days. 相似文献

Several genomic and cDNA clones encoding the 22 kDa-like -coixin, the -prolamin of Coix seeds, were isolated and sequenced. Three contiguous 22 kDa-like -coixin genes designated -3A, -3B and -3C were found in the 15 kb -3 genomic clone. The -3A and -3C genes presented in-frame stop codons at position +652. The two genes with truncated ORFs are flanking the -3B gene, suggesting that the three -coixin genes may have arisen by tandem duplication and that the stop codon was introduced before the duplication.Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of -coixin clones with the published sequences of 22 kDa -zein and 22 kDa-like -kafirin revealed a highly conserved protein structure. The protein consists of an N-terminus, containing the signal peptide, followed by ten highly conserved tandem repeats of 15–20 amino acids flanked by polyglutamines, and a short C-terminus. The difference between the 22 kDa-like -prolamins and the 19 kDa -zein lies in the fact that the 19 kDa protein is exactly one repeat motif shorter than the 22 kDa proteins.Several putative regulatory sequences common to the zein and kafirin genes were identified within both the 5 and 3 flanking regions of -3B. Nucleotide sequences that match the consensus TATA, CATC and the ca. –300 prolamin box are present at conserved positions in -3B relative to zein and kafirin genes. Two putative Opaque-2 boxes are present in -3B that occupies approximately the same positions as those identified for the 22 kDa -zein and -kafirin genes. Southern hybridization, using a fragment of a maize Opaque-2 cDNA clone as a probe, confirmed the presence of Opaque-2 homologous sequences in the Coix and sorghum genomes.The overall results suggest that the structural and regulatory genes involved in the expression of the 22 kDa-like -prolamin genes of Coix, sorghum and maize, originated from a common ancestor, and that variations were introduced in the structural and regulatory sequences after species separation. 相似文献

Variation of seed -amylase inhibitors was investigated in 1 154 cultivated and 726 non-cultivated (wild and weedy) accessions of the common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L. Four -amylase inhibitor types were recognized based on the inhibtion by seed extracts of the activities of porcine pancreatic -amylase and larval -amylase and larval -amylase of the Mexican bean weevil, Zabrotes subfasciatus Boheman. Of the 1 880 accessions examined most (1 734) were able to inhibit porcine pancreatic -amylase activity, but were inactive against the Z. subfasciatus larval -amylase; 41 inhibited only the larval -amylase activity, 52 inhibited the activities of the two -amylases, and 53 did not inhibit the activity of either of the -amylases. The four different inhibitor types were designated as AI-1, AI2, AI-3, and AI-0, respectively. These four inhibitor types were identified by the banding patterns of seed glycoproteins in the range of 14–20 kDa by using SDSpolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Additionally, four different banding patterns were recognized in accessions with AI-1, and were designated as AI-1a, 1b, 1c, and 1d. Two different patterns of the accessions lacking an -amylase inhibitory activity were identified and designated as AI-0a and AI-0b. The largest diversity for seed -amylase inhibitors was observed in non-cultivated accessions collected from Mexico where all eight inhibitor types were detected. The possible relationships between the variation of seed -amylase inhibitors and bruchid resistance are discussed. 相似文献

Summary We report here a new human -globin gene rearrangement carrying the two normal, 2 and 1, and two hybrid, 1/2, globin genes in the order 5-2-1/2-1/2-1-3. Both the hybrid genes, subtyped with ApaI and RsaI restriction enzymes, were found to be of the uncommon anti 3.7 type II. The hybrid genes were expressed at the biosynthetic level and their interaction with the -thalassaemia IVS 1 nt 1 GA mutation caused thalassaemia intermedia. We also report a case of an -globin gene rearrangement in the twin of one of the -globin gene carriers; the duplicated gene was of the anti 4.2 type and was associated with the absence of RsaI polymorphism. The singular finding of an -anti 3.7 cluster with two identical rare hybrid genes suggests that the reciprocal unequal recombination causing the -globin gene rearrangements could be of the intra-chromosomal rather than the interchromosomal type. 相似文献

Primary structure of hemoglobin of -chain ofColumba livia is presented. The separation of -chain was obtained from globin by ion-exchange chromatography (CMC-52) and reversed-phase HPLC (RP-2 column). Amino acid sequence of intact as well as tryptic digested chain was determined on gas-phase sequencer. Structure is aligned homologously with 21 other species. Among different exchanges, positions 24 (TyrLeu), 26 (AlaGly), 32 (MetLeu), 64 (AspGlu), 113 (LeuPhe), and 129 (LeuVal) are unique to pigeon hemoglobin. The various exchanges in -chain are discussed with reference to evolution and phylogeny. The results show that the order Columbiformes is evolutionarily closer to the order Anseriformes. Since the pigeon is homogeneous, having HbA (A-chain) and lacks D-chain, its phylogenetic placement could be established among birds having single hemoglobin components. 相似文献

Deacetylation of the latter compound and subsequent glycosylation with 4-trichloroacetamidophenyl 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-1-thio-2-trichloroacetamido--D-galactopyranoside and 4-trichloroacetamidophenyl 4,6-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl--D-galactopyranosyl)-1-thio-2-trichloroacetamido--D-galactopyranoside in dichloromethane in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid resulted in the corresponding selectively protected derivatives of the tetrasaccharide GalNAc(13)Gl(14)Gal(14)Glc-OH2CH2N3 and the pentasaccharide Gal(13)GalNAc(13)Gl(14)Gal(14)Glc-OH2CH2N3 in 88 and 73% yields, respectively. Removal of O-protecting groups, substitution of acetyl group for the N-trichloroacetyl group, and reduction of the aglycone azide group resulted in the target 2-aminoethyl globo-tri-, -tetra-, and -pentasaccharide, respectively. 相似文献

sanguinolenta and H. leviuscula
leviuscula, collected in the Sea of Okhotsk. Both glycosides contain aglycones with pentahydroxysteroid nuclei of similar structures, which are substituted at the 3-hydroxy group with differently methylated -D-xylosyl residues. Sanguinoside A has an unusual structure of its aglycone side chain, whereas sanguinoside B has a unique permethylated carbohydrate chain. In addition, laevisculoside G, a known glycoside, was identified in the H. leviuscula starfish. The structures of the isolated glycosides were established by interpreting their spectral data and by comparing their spectral characteristics with those of known compounds. 相似文献
