我国第2次空间蛋白质晶体生长实验 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
1994年7月,在我国返回式卫星FSW-2上进行了第2次空间蛋白质结晶实验.该次实验中的晶体生长状况明显优于首次空间实验结果,参加实验的10种蛋白质中有9种蛋白质在空间长出了晶体,48个样品的单晶产生率达70%以上.其中3种蛋白质在空间长出较大单晶体,能用于X射线衍射实验和收集强度数据.这3种蛋白质中,除了在首次空间实验中长出较大晶体的溶菌酶,还有由于结晶条件优化而结晶效果明显改进的酸性磷脂酶A2和斑头雁氧合血红蛋白.微重力条件对蛋白质晶体生长的良好效应在本次实验中得到进一步证实. 相似文献

为了确定环孢菌素A结晶工艺,对溶剂种类、反溶剂加入量、结晶温度和降温方式等因素的影响进行研究。首先通过静态结晶研究,确定了丙酮/水结晶体系和溶剂比例。在此基础上,设计了正交试验L9(34)考察动态结晶中各因素对环孢菌素A结晶收率和纯度的影响,并进一步优化了结晶降温方式。结果表明:确定环孢菌素A结晶的最佳条件为采用梯度程序降温,养晶温度为-5℃,丙酮和水的体积比为2:1,反溶剂水流加时间为0.5h,开始流加点为降温至0℃,结晶时间约为3h。经HPLC分析环孢菌素A的纯度平均值为99.15%,收率平均值为87.7%。 相似文献

为适应固氮酶蛋白等厌氧蛋白质空间晶体生长的要求,应在地面用简易而适用的厌氧加样装置以优化这类蛋白的结晶条件。用塑料袋或简易箱代替固氮酶实验室常用的笨重厌氧箱,获得了缺失nifZ因氮菌(Azotobacter vinelandii Lipmann)突变种的MoFe蛋白和含锰固氮培养基中生物的UW3的MnFe蛋白晶体,并在远离固氮酶实验室的地方,使用由小仪器塑料袋和急求用的氩气袋组成的更轻便的厌氧装置,用坐滴法也能使这两种蛋白结晶出来。结果表明,利用上述简易厌氧装置有望达到以上2种厌氧蛋白空间晶体生长的要求。 相似文献

A space experiment involving protein crystallization was conducted in a microgravity environment using the space shuttle "Endeavour" of STS-47, on a 9-day mission from September 12th to 20th in 1992. The crystallization was carried out according to a batch method, and 5 proteins were selected as flight samples for crystallization. Two of these proteins: hen egg-white lysozyme and co-amino acid: pyruvate aminotransferase from Pseudomonas sp. F-126, were obtained as single crystals of good diffraction quality. Since 1992 we have carried out several space experiments for protein crystallization aboard space shuttles and the space station MIR. Our experimental results obtained mainly from hen egg-white lysozyme are described below, focusing on the effects of microgravity on protein crystal growth. 相似文献

The second experiment of protein crystallization was performed on domestic re-entry satelliteFSW-2 in 1994-07. The results are superior to the ones of the first mission in 1992: 9 of 10 different proteins were crystallized in space, and 70% of the total 48 samples yielded single crystals. Besides hen egg-white lysozyme which grew high-quality crystals on the first mission, an acidic phospholipase A2(aPLA2) from snake venom and hemoglobin from Anser Indicus produced good-quality crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analyses. The positive effect of microgravity on protein crystal growth is verified again at this time. 相似文献

从分别生长于含Mn和Cr培养基中的棕色固氮菌(Azotobacter vinelandii Lipmann)突变种UW3分离纯化出MnFo和CrFe蛋白.为适应包括固氮酶在内的氧敏感蛋白的空间晶体生长的要求,应用简易而适用的厌氧加样装置代替固氮酶实验室所用的笨重厌氧箱(dry box),在地面进行厌氧加样.在充满氮气的简便有机玻璃箱内厌氧加样的所有样品中,分别用液/液扩散法和汽相扩散的坐滴法都可在一周内使MnFe和CrFe蛋白在宇宙飞船上从溶液中结晶出来.在所用的数种蛋白沉淀剂中,飞船上形成的所有晶体都为单晶,而地面上在多数沉淀剂中部生成大量孪晶.在相同沉淀剂中用液/液扩散法,飞船上生成CrFe蛋白的最大晶体比地面生成的最大晶体大1倍.而在相同沉淀剂中用汽相扩散的坐滴法,飞船上生成的MnFe蛋白最大晶体却没有地面生成的最大晶体大.这种差异也许是由不同结晶方法而不是不同蛋白所引起的. 相似文献

We report the outline of Space Experiments conducted on Space Shuttle (STS-95) launched in autumn of 1998. In this STS-95 mission, Japanese astronaut Dr. Chiaki Mukai achieved her 2nd space flight and conducted a part of 82 space experiments including Japanese experiments. US astronaut Senator John Glenn also achieved his second space flight, 36 years after his first space flight. Senator Glenn was a leader of the original (the first) 7 US astronauts and very famous in US because he succeeded US first orbital space flight around the earth. NASDA had started the project of space experiment using STS-95 at the summer of 1997, therefore we had only one year for the all preparation Yamashita, et al. Biological Sciences in Space, Vol.12 No.3(1998). Scientific results will be reported by investigators, therefore we report here how we had been developing the space experiment plan, on board operation procedure and ground operations including ground control experiments about four plant experiments and one cell biology experiment. 相似文献

A space experiment aimed at closely observing the development and swimming activity of medaka fry under microgravity was carried out as a part of the S*T*A*R*S Program, a space shuttle mission, in STS-107 in January 2003. Four eggs laid on earth in an artificially controlled environment were put in a container with a functionally closed ecological system and launched on the Space Shuttle Columbia. Each egg was held in place by a strip of Velcro in the container to be individually monitored by close-up CCD cameras. In the control experiment, four eggs prepared using the same experimental set-up remained on the ground. There was no appreciable difference in the time course of development between space- and ground-based embryos. In the ground experiment, embryos were observed to rotate in place enclosed with the egg membrane, whereas those in the flight unit did not rotate. One of the four eggs hatched on the 8th day after being launched into space. All four eggs hatched in the ground unit. The fry hatched in space was mostly motionless, but with occasional control of its posture with respect to references in the experimental chamber. The fry hatched on ground were observed to move actively, controlling their posture with respect to the gravity vector. These findings suggest that the absence of gravity affects the initiation process of motility of embryos and hatched fry. 相似文献

Reproducible conditions have been established for the crystallization of recombinant bovine immune interferon. Two cystalline forms of this protein were obtained. A tetragonal form, space group P422, with unit cell dimensions a = b = 59.0 A and c = 125.7 A and an orthorhombic form, space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit cell dimensions a = 42.80 A, b = 79.90 A and c = 85.64 A were obtained under similar crystallization conditions. The orthorhombic form diffracts to 2.6 A resolution, contains a single interferon dimer in the asymmetric unit of structure and is suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis. 相似文献

The crystallization of 16 proteins was carried out using 60 wells on board Shenzhou 3 in 2002. Although the mission was only 7 days, careful and concerted planning at all stages made it possible to obtain crystals of improved quality compared to their ground controls for some of the proteins. Significantly improved resolutions were obtained from diffracted crystals of 4 proteins. A complete data set from a space crystal of the PEP carboxykinase yielded significantly higher resolution (1.46A vs. 1.87A), I/sigma (22.4 vs. 15.5), and a lower average temperature factor (29.2A(2) vs. 42.9A(2)) than the best ground-based control crystal. The 3-D structure of the enzyme is well improved with significant ligand density. It has been postulated that the reduced convection and absence of macromolecule sedimentation under microgravity have advantages/benefits for protein crystal growth. Improvements in experimental design for protein crystal growth in microgravity are ongoing. 相似文献

Ten years after medaka fish mated and laid eggs in space and further preparation for the life-cycle experiment on ISS. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In the second International Microgravity Laboratory (IML-2/STS-65) mission in 1994, medaka fish (Oryzias latipes) performed their successful mating behavior in space for the first time among vertebrate animals. The eggs the fish laid in space developed normally, and hatched as fry (baby fish) in space. Those fry born in space had the same number of germ cells as the ground control fish, and these germ cells later developed to produce the offspring on the ground. Fry hatched in space did not exhibit any looping behavior regardless of their strain, visual acuity, etc. For fish, one of the most exciting experiments to be done abroad the International Space Station (ISS) is a realization of fish life cycles in microgravity. At present, fish are the most likely candidates to be the first vertebrate to live their life cycle in space. Research done in our laboratory for realizing the life-cycle experiment of medaka fish are also introduced. 相似文献
