鸡传染性支气管炎病毒CK/CH/LDL97 Ⅰ/97株S基因特征

鸡传染性支气管炎(Infectious bronchitis,IB)是由传染性支气管炎病毒(Infectious bronchitis virus,IBV)引起的一种急性高度接触性传染病.该病主要侵害鸡的呼吸系统、消化系统和泌尿生殖系统,可引起雏鸡死亡,蛋鸡产蛋量和蛋品质下降,给养禽业造成很大的经济损失,成为影响世界各国养禽业发展的主要疫病之一.IBV是尼多病毒目(Nidovirales)冠状病毒科(Coronaviridae)冠状病毒属(Coronavirus)第三群的典型代表种[1].其基因组为不分节段的单股正链RNA,全长约27.6kb[2].IBV S蛋白形成病毒表面的纤突结构,翻译后的前体蛋白在跨膜时被裂解为N端的S1和C端的S2两个亚单位.S1为IBV的重要免疫原蛋白,能诱导机体产生血凝抑制抗体和病毒中和抗体[3].而且S1基因的点突变、插入、缺失或重组是IBV产生新血清型、亚型或变异株的主要原因[4].S2糖蛋白的主要功能是将S1蛋白锚定在病毒粒子的囊膜上,同时其N端也存在抗原表位[5].     

南亚热带人工马尾松林下植物组成特征及主要木本种群生态位研究

1引言物种多样性是生态系统的重要特征并维持系统的功能运行,生物多样性与生态系统抵御逆境和抗干扰能力有关,多样性的提高会增强系统的稳定性及生态服务功能[4,5,13,14,24,25,32,36].林下植被在维持森林物种多样性、立地指示、水土保持、促进人工林养分循环、维护林地地力和揭示植被演替特征等方面具有不可忽视的作用[3,12,19,20,35].马尾松(Pinus massoniana)是我国南亚热带地区的主要针叶林之一,由于人为活动(造林、抚育、樵采等)对人工林下物种丰富度干扰很大,造成了森林的严重退化[33,34,37],不利于人工林的可持续发展.南亚热带植被的…

Investigation of the mechanism of temperature sensitivity of the electroreceptors of ampullae of lorenzini

In experiments on Black Sea skates (Raja clavata), the potential of the receptor epithelium of the ampullae of Lorenzini and spike activity of single nerve fibers connected to them were investigated during electrical and temperature stimulation. Usually the potential within the canal was between 0 and –2 mV, and the input resistance of the ampulla 250–400 k. Heating of the region of the receptor epithelium was accompanied by a negative wave of potential, an increase in input resistance, and inhibition of spike activity. With worsening of the animal's condition the transepithelial potential became positive (up to +10 mV) but the input resistance of the ampulla during stimulation with a positive current was nonlinear in some cases: a regenerative spike of positive polarity appeared in the channel. During heating, the spike response was sometimes reversed in sign. It is suggested that fluctuations of the transepithelial potential and spike responses to temperature stimulation reflect changes in the potential difference on the basal membrane of the receptor cells, which is described by a relationship of the Nernst's or Goldman's equation type.I.

Principles of organization and evolution of systems of regulation of functions

Evolution of living organisms is closely connected with evolution of structure of the system of regulations and its mechanisms. The functional ground of regulations is chemical signalization. As early as in unicellular organisms there is a set of signal mechanisms providing their life activity and orientation in space and time. Subsequent evolution of ways of chemical signalization followed the way of development of delivery pathways of chemical signal and development of mechanisms of its regulation. The mechanism of chemical regulation of the signal interaction is discussed by the example of the specialized system of transduction of signal from neuron to neuron, of effect of hormone on the epithelial cell and modulation of this effect. These mechanisms are considered as the most important ways of the fine and precise adaptation of chemical signalization underlying functioning of physiological systems and organs of the living organism
