Hybrids between pseudodiploid Thy-1.1+ lymphomas and Thy 1.2– pseudodiploid Abelson-leukemia-virus-induced (ALV-induced) lymphomas express Thy-1 glycoprotein on their cell surface. These Thy-1+ hybrids invariably express the Thy 1.1 allelic form of the glycoprotein and may be either Thy 1.2+ or Thy 1.2–. Sublines expressing both Thy 1.1 and Thy 1.2 can be isolated from Thy 1.1+, Thy 1.2– hybrids by cell sorting. In contrast to hybrids with pseudodiploid ALV-induced lymphomas, hybrids between Thy 1.1+ lymphomas and pseudotetraploid Thy 1.2– Abelson-leukemia-virus-induced lymphomas do not express Thy-1 glycoprotein on their cell surface and Thy-1 glycoprotein cannot be detected in detergent extracts of these cells. Thy-1+ revertants were isolated from one of the Thy-1– hybrids by cell sorting. — These results demonstrate a gene dosage effect for the expression of the Thy-1 glycoprotein in somatic cell hybrids. They are consistent with the idea that diffusable gene products regulate Thy-1-glycoprotein expression in these hybrids. They also suggest that there may be additional, apparentlycis-active, regulatory mechanisms which determine the ability of theThy-1 structural genes of the Abelson-leukemia-virus-induced lymphoma parent to be expressed in somatic cell hybrids. 相似文献

DNA-mediated transformation of hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT)-deficient cells was used to assess the state of the X chromosome Hprt gene in spermatogenic cells. It had been shown previously that DNA from the inactive X chromosome of somatic cells functions poorly or not at all in HPRT transformation, indicating that DNA modification is involved in somatic cell X chromosome inactivation (XCI). In contrast, DNA from mature sperm does function in HPRT transformation suggesting that DNA modification may not be the basis of XCI in mature sperm. In this paper, transformation of HPRT– mouse and hamster cells has been performed to test the nature of XCI during earlier stages of spermatogenesis. DNA from these developing murine germ cells was shown to be capable of HPRT transformation, extending the observation that XCI in sperm does not appear to involve a DNA modification. We also show here that DNA from mature sperm of marsupials functions in HPRT transformation, a result consistent with a role for sperm XCI in the evolution of somatic X inactivation. 相似文献

Food concentration (0.5 × 103 – 5 × 105
Scenedesmus cells m1–1) significant influenced the somatic growth, maturation and survivorship ofS. proboscideus larvae. A density of 5 × 104 cells m1–1 was optimal for early larval stages. Of four temperature tested (20–35 °C), 30 °C resulted in the best growth and survival. Maturation time was inversely related to temperature, and was size- rather that age-dependent. Larvae were tolerant of a wide conductivity range, but optimal growth and survival were observed at 260 µS cm–1. Nitrate-Nitrogen (NO2-N) caused a larval mortality of 50% after 24 h at 0.58 mg1–1. 相似文献

To evaluate the polymorphism and conservation of the major histocompatibility complex class Ib molecule Qa1 in wild mouse populations, we determined the nucleotide sequence of exons 1–3 of Qa1 of eight mouse haplotypes derived from wild mice, including Mus musculus domesticus, M. m. castaneus, M. m. bactrianus, and M. spretus, as well as two t haplotypes. Our data identify eight new alleles of Qa1. Taken together with previously published data on Qa1 among the common laboratory inbred strains, and in agreement with cytotoxic T-lymphocyte, serological, and biochemical data, these results further confirm the existence of two families of Qa1 molecules, Qa1a-like and Qa1b-like, and illuminate the extreme conservation of the peptide-binding region of these molecules, even across species.The wild mouse Qa1 nucleotide sequences are available from GenBank at accession numbers AF100695–703 相似文献

Summary Under selective growth conditions a revertant of mouse cells, defective in hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase activity (HPRT, EC-No. 2.4.2.8), was isolated, which contained an electrophoretically abnormal form of HPRT activity. The specific HPRT activity in crude extracts of the revertant cells is about 30% of the level determined in normal wild type cells. The variant HPRT reacts with antiserum against normal mouse HPRT but the rate of heat inactivation of the variant activity is different from the wild type form. By isozyme and karyotype analyses of somatic cell hybrids between the revertant mouse cells and Chinese hamster cells we found that the abnormal HPRT activity is coded for by the mouse X-chromosome as expected for a mutation in the structural HPRT gene.DNA has been purified from the abnormal HPRT revertant cells and incubated with mouse A9 cells (HPRT-). After growth in selective medium one clone was isolated which expressed the electrophoretically abnormal form of HPRT. Six clones showed the normal form of HPRT due to reversion of the defective HRRT locus in A9 cells. This result indicates DNA-mediated transfer of the mouse HPRT gene at a frequency of about 0.5×10-7. A similar frequency has been found for transfer of the variant HPRT locus via isolated metaphase chromosomes to A9 recipient cells. When placed in non-selective media the DNA-mediated transferent cells gradually lost their ability to express the HPRT transgenome at a rate of about 6% per average cell generation. 相似文献

Calcium increases the yield of somatic embryos in carrot embryogenic suspension cultures 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

An upward shift in the concentration of calcium present in the medium during somatic embryogenesis increased the number of embryos produced approximately two-fold. This was observed when embryogenic suspension cells grown in 2,4-D medium with the normal calcium concentration of 10–3 M were transferred to hormone-free medium containing 10–2 M calcium and when embryogenic suspension cells grown in 2,4-D medium containing 10–4 M calcium were transferred to hormone-free medium with 10–3 M calcium. At calcium concentrations between 6·10–3 and 10–2 M globular stage somatic embryos were found in cultures supplemented with 2·10–6 M of 2,4-D indicating that elevated calcium counteracts the inhibitory effect of 2,4-D on somatic embryogenesis. No qualitative changes were found in the pattern of extracellular polypeptides as a result of growth and embryogenesis in media with different calcium concentrations. 相似文献

A method of plant regeneration from cotyledons ofHelianthus tuberosus, Helianthus annuus ×Helianthus tuberosus and for the backcross of the interspecific hybrids onH. annuus was developed. Induction of somatic embryogenesis and plantlet regeneration from anther culture of the interspecific hybridsH. annuus ×H. tuberosus is reported.Cotyledons were cultured on Murashige and Skoog basal medium (MS) supplemented with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and 6-furfurylaminopurine (kinetin) or N6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Shoot regeneration occurred on most of the media tested, but the best results were obtained on media with a high concentration of cytokinins (BAP or kinetin: 4 mg l–1) and lower concentration of auxin (IAA: 0.5–1 mg l–1).Embryogenic callus and adventitious buds were initiated from only two anthers of the hybridH. annuus ×H. tuberosus cultured on the MS medium containing BAP (0.2 mg l–1) and 1-naphtalenacetic acid (NAA: 0.1 mg l–1). Prolonged culture of these embryogenic calli and buds on the original medium with successive subculture on MS basal medium without growth regulators resulted in embryo formation and shoot differentiation. The plantlets, after rooting, were established in soil. 相似文献

Polyethylene glycol-1000 (PEG-1000) induced fusion of HPRT (E.C. 2.4.2.8) deficient Chinese hamster cells with -galactosidase A (E.C. 2.3.1.22) deficient cells from a patient with Fabry's disease yielded hybrids which contained both human and hamster HPRT, G6PD (E.C. 1.1.1.49), and APRT (E.C. 2.4.2.7) and Chinese hamster -galactosidase B. Thus PEG-1000 mediated somatic cell fusion led to reexpression of Chinese hamster HPRT. It did not restore the expression of human -galactosidase. Since PEG-1000 treatment of HPRT– Chinese hamster cells in the absence of human cells yielded no HPRT+ cells, it is concluded that the element responsible for the restoration of rodent HPRT was contributed by the human cells and not by the agent employed to promote fusion.This work was supported by research grants from the United States Public Health Services GM 17702, from the National Science Foundation BMS 74-21424, and from the National Foundation March of Dimes 1-377. 相似文献

Amount of DNA-Feulgen staining in individual somatic nuclei and mature sperm of the parthenogenetic wasps, Habrobracon juglandis, H. serinopae, and Mormoniella vitripennis, were determined with a scanning microdensitometer. The haploid genome for both species of Habrobracon was estimated to be 0.15–0.16×10–12 g DNA, corresponding to a molecular weight of roughly 10×1010 daltons. The haploid genome of M. vitripennis is approximately twice this value, 0.33–0.34×10–12 g, or about 20×1010 daltons. Measurements made on dividing nuclei from syncytial preblastoderm embryos of H. juglandis and M. vitripennis showed that the chromosomes of impaternate males were present in the haploid number and contained the C amount of DNA; whereas nuclei from female preblastoderm embryos contained the diploid number of chromosomes and the 2C amount of DNA. However, hemocyte and brain cell nuclei from either male or female adult wasps contained 2C and 4C amounts of DNA. Both sexes also showed equivalent levels of polyploidy (8C, 16C, or 32C) in Malpighian tubule nuclei. Therefore, in these parthenogenetic species, a mechanism must exist that compensates during later development for the initial two-fold difference in the chromatin content of somatic nuclei in haploid male and diploid female embryos. Hemocytes from impaternate Mormoniella diploid males and triploid females contain the 2C and 3C amounts of DNA, respectively. Therefore dosage compensation involves an additional cycle of DNA replication only in haploid cells, and it insures that a certain minimum quantity of DNA is received by each somatic cell. 相似文献

The embryonic stem cell line, S25, is a genetically modified line that allows lineage selection of neural cells (M. Li, L. Lovell-Badge, A. Smith (1998) Current Biology
8: 971–974). Here, the growth parameters of this cell line were analysed. Serial passaging in adherent conditions enabled these cells to grow rapidly (average specific growth rates of 0.035 h–1) and generate high viable cell densities (above 90%). The aggregation of the S25 cells into embryoid bodies (EBs) was also studied, indicating limited cell growth (maximum cell densities of 2.7×105 cells ml–1) and a high variability of aggregate size (70–400 m after 8 d). Enzymatic dissociation of EBs with 1% (v/v) trypsin gave highest cell viability (91%) and density (1.4×104 cells ml–1) and the cells thus obtained are able to differentiate into neurons. 相似文献

The intra- and intersubspecific genetic distances between five subspecies of Mus musculus were estimated from restriction enzyme cleavage patterns or maps of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The European subspecies, M. m. domesticus and Asian subspecies, M. m. bactrianus, M. m. castaneus, M. m. molossinus and M. m. urbanus were examined. For each subspecies, except M. m. urbanus, at least two local races from widely separated localities were examined. Intrasubspecific heterogeneity was found in the mtDNA cleavage patterns of M. m. bactrianus and M. m. castaneus. M. m. molossinus and M. m. domesticus, however, revealed no intrasubspecific heterogeneity. Four of the subspecies had distinct cleavage patterns. The fifth, M. m. urbanus, had cleavage patterns identical to those of M. m. castaneus with several enzymes. Estimates of genetic distances between the various races and subspecies were obtained by comparing cleavage maps of the mtDNAs with various restriction enzymes. Nucleotide sequence divergences of mtDNA between local races were estimated to be less than 0.4% in M. m. bactrianus and less than 0.3% in M. m. castaneus. The times of divergence of both subspecies were calculated to be 0.1–0.2 x 106 years. These values suggest that the intrasubspecific divergence began some 0.1–0.2 x 106 years ago. On the other hand, nucleotide sequence divergences between European subspecies M. m. domesticus and Asian subspecies M. m. bactrianus and M. m. castaneus were 7.1% and 5.8%, respectively. The times of divergence were calculated to be 2.1–2.6 x 106 years. Further, the nucleotide sequence divergence and time of divergence between M. m. molossinus and the other two Asian subspecies were comparable to those between M. m. molossinus and M. m. domesticus (about 3% and 1 x 106 years, respectively). These results suggest that M. m. molossinus is situated in a unique evolutionary position among Asian subspecies. 相似文献

Interspecific hybrids between Walker 256 carcinosarcoma rat cells which are asparagine requiring, and LMTKt mouse cells which are drug resistant and asparagine independent have been isolated. The hybrids were selectively isolated by taking advantage of the asparagine requirement, or, in some cases, combining the asparagine requirement with an azaguanine resistance marker. The hybrids: (a) possessed a chromosome complement which was additive between the two parent lines; (b) showed two marker chromosomes; (c) possessed both rat and mouse forms of a number of different isozymes. The specific activities of asparagine synthetase was measured in the two parents and the hybrids. The enzyme level in the hybrids was found to be higher than the levels observed in the W 256 line, but only 10% of that observed in the LMTK−. The results are in agreement with, but do not prove, the hypothesis that asparagine requirement is due to a mutation in a structural cistron specifying the asparagine synthetase polypeptide. 相似文献

In the presence of 3-isobutyi-l-methylxanthine, VIP produced a dose-related (3×10–9–10–7 M) increase (g-fold) in cAMP production in isolated HEp-2 cells incubated at 15°C in KRP buffer. Among the peptides structurally related to VIP, including secretin (10–7 M), pancreatic glucagon (10–6 M), PHI, somatostatin-14 (10–6 M), hpGRF (10–8–4×10–M), GIP (2×10–7 M), only PHI (3×10–7 M and above) is able to activate the cAMP-generating system in HEp-2 cells, but at 102 times lower potency. Under the same conditions, histamine (10–3 M) was also ineffective, while PGE 2 (10–7–10–4 M) increased (0-fold) basal cAMP levels in HEp-2 cells. The VIP effect is related to the interaction os the peptide on VIP recognition sites (12SI-VIP-binding capacity ), coupled to the membrane-bound adenylate cyclase . The results indicate that the transformed laryngeal cell line HEp-2 possessesa receptor-cAMP system preferentially activated by VIP (relative potencies: VIP > PHI other peptides of the secretin family), and suggest that this neuropeptide could modulate biological functions in normal laryngeal epithelia in man. 相似文献

Summary Allelism of nine nitrate reductase deficient (NR–) Nicotiana plumbaginifolia cell lines was tested by complementation after protoplast fusion. Complementation was recognized by the appearance of somatic hybrid colonies growing on a selective NH4

– medium which cannot support the growth of NR– lines. All five apoenzyme defective (NA) lines were non-complementing and therefore allelic. The apoenzyme and the cofactor defective (NX) lines were complementing, as expected, and gave somatic hybrids with restored nitrate reductase activity. The four cofactor defective lines were found to belong to three complementation groups (NX1 and NX9; NX21; NX24). Two of these (NX21 and NX24) are of new types which have not been previously described in flowering plants. In the somatic hybrids restoration of NR activity was accompanied by the restoration of plant regeneration ability.

In vitro propagation of the bamboo (Bambusa tulda Roxb.) through shoot proliferation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sanjay Saxena 《Plant cell reports》1990,9(8):431-434
An efficient protocol has been developed for the in vitro propagation of Bambusa tulda through shoot proliferation. Shoots from 3-week-old aseptically grown seedlings were used to initiate cultures. Multiple shoots were obtained on liquid Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine (8×10–6M) and kinetin (4×10–6M). Continuous shoot proliferation at a rate of 4–5 fold every three weeks was achieved through forced axillary branching. More than 90% of the shoots could be rooted on a modified MS medium containing indoleacetic acid (1×10–5M) and coumarin (6.8×10–5M). Following simple hardening procedures, the in vitro raised plants were transferred to the soil with more than 80% success.Abbreviations BAP

The population growth pattern and related changes in both the nitrogen and phosphorus contents in the cell of the dinoflagellate Peridinium penardii (Lemm.) Lemm., which formed a freshwater red tide in a reservoir, were studied in situ. An exponential increase with time in population density was found. A specific growth rate of 0.25 d–1 was observed. The cellular content of phosphorus per cell decreased from 6.0 × 10–5 µg to 9.2 × 10–6 µg along with an increase in population density from 8.0 × 102 cells ml–1 to 2.5 × 104 cells ml–1. A prominent change in the cellular nitrogen did not occur. Decreasing cell content and continuous uptake of phosphorus were advantageous for P. penardii to form a freshwater red tide under P-limited conditions. 相似文献

Comparison of the effects of kanamycin and geneticin on regeneration of papaya from root tissue 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Kanamycin and geneticin are commonly used for the selection of neomycin phosphotransferase II (npt II) transformed plants. Since papaya tissue is sensitive to both antibiotics, it is difficult to explore their effects on the regeneration process solely based on using non-transformed tissues. Adventitious roots derived from npt II-transgenic and non-transgenic papaya shoots in vitro were used as explants in this investigation. The effects of kanamycin and geneticin on callus formation, embryogenesis, and conversion of somatic embryos to shoots were compared. Callus growth derived from npt II-transformed root explants was apparently enhanced on kanmycin within 50–200 mg l–1 or on geneticin within 12.5–50 mg l–1 as compared to those on antibiotic-free controls. The percentages of npt II-transformed somatic embryo-forming callus were not significantly different (16.3–18.3%) on geneticin less than 6.25 mg l–1 and only slightly reduced (11.2–15.7%) on geneticin within 12.5–50 mg l–1, whereas, formation of somatic embryos was strongly suppressed on kanamycin media. Conversion rates of npt II-transformed somatic embryos to shoots were not significantly different among all kanamycin or geneticin treatments. Percentages of the callus derived from non-transformed root explants were greatly reduced on the medium containing more than 25 mg l–1 kanamycin or geneticin, and no somatic embryos formed from untransformed callus on any kanamycin or geneticin media. Our results indicated that somatic embryogenesis of callus derived from npt II-transformed root explants of papaya was strongly inhibited by kanamycin. Thus, to regenerate npt II-transformed cells from papaya root tissue, we recommend using the lower concentration geneticin (12.5–25 mg l–1) to avoid the adverse effects of kanamycin on embryogenesis. 相似文献

The influence of Zn2+ (6.0 × 10–3 –18.0 × 10–3
M) and Cu2+ (4 × 10–4 –1.2 × 10–4
M) in the basal medium on mycelial growth (dry weight), activities of lignin peroxidase (Lip), manganese peroxidase (Mnp), solubilization, and mineralization (14CO2 evolution) of lignin during a period of 3 weeks was studied in Phanerochaete chrysosporium strain MTCC-787. Highest mycelial growth was obtained at 0.6 M Zn2+ and 0.4 M Cu2+ levels. Enzyme activities were found to increase up to the highest levels of both the trace elements. However, Zn2+ had a relatively more stimulatory effect on Lip production and the reverse was true in case of Cu2+. [14C]Lignin solubilization was also promoted by higher levels of both trace elements. Mineralization of [14C]lignin was optimal at 6.0 M Zn2+ and 1.2 M Cu2+. The stimulatory effect of Zn2+ on Lip production was correlated with higher rates of [14C]lignin mineralization. 相似文献

Intact and excised cultured pea roots (Pisum sativum L. cv Alaska) were treated with chlorsulfuron at concentrations ranging from 2.8 ×10–4 M to 2.8×10–6 M. At all concentrations this chemical was demonstrated to inhibit the progression of cells from G2 to mitosis (M) and secondarily from G1 to DNA synthesis (S). The S and M phases were not directly affected, but the transition steps into those phases were inhibited. Total protein synthesis was unaffected by treatment of intact roots with 2.8×10–6 M chlorsulfuron. RNA synthesis was inhibited by 43% over a 24-h treatment period. It is hypothesized that chlorsulfuron inhibits cell cycle progression by blocking the G2 and G1 transition points through inhibition of cell cycle specific RNA synthesis. 相似文献

The frequency of long-term secondary somatic embryogenesis and shoot meristem development from embryogenic masses of the cherry rootstock `Colt' ( Prunus avium × P. pseudocerasus), differentiated from transgenic roots containing the T-DNA of Agrobacterium rhizogenes, has opened the way for genetic improvement by biotechnological techniques. Whole plants were produced by stimulating shoot meristem development from somatic embryos. The combination of 4 mg l–1 of kinetin and 2% of maltose under illumination stimulated shoot development and, subsequently, whole plants have been recovered by applying 1.5 mg l–1 kinetin to the rooting medium. Although numerous treatments have been tested involving both embryogenic masses and whole embryos, normal embryo germination was observed sporadically. Cold treatment was effective in stimulating secondary somatic embryogenesis with embryo development to the cotyledonary stage, but did not promote their germination. Similarly, a higher concentration (44–55 mg l–1) of chelated iron than that commonly used in tissue culture media (36.7 mg l–1) produced, after 3 weeks in culture, almost a 50% increase in the number of embryos at the cotyledonary stage per embryogenic mass. Among the cytokinins tested, 1 mg l–1 of 6-benzylaminopurine and 0.1 mg l–1 of thidiazuron were effective in inducing secondary somatic embryogenesis; however, each of them expressed highest efficiency with specific medium and environmental conditions. Furthermore, application of 1 mg l –1 thidiazuron reverted morphogenic callus to non-morphogenic callus, particularly in medium containing 2% sucrose. Finally, hormone free medium with 2% maltose enhanced maturation of the emb-ryos to the normal cotyledonary stage. This paper has improved knowledge of embryo culture and plant production in this important genotype, opening the way for genetic improvement by biotechnological techniques, mainly with the aim of modifying the growth pattern of the canopy of sweet cherry grafted on it. 相似文献
