Electrophoretically detectable polymorphisms of fructose bisphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11) have been found in the mouse. One polymorphism, found among inbred strains of Mus musculus and feral animals, affects the isozymes found in the muscle and in most other tissues examined but is not expressed in kidney, liver, or testis. These tissues have other electrophoretically distinct isozymes which are monomorphic in Mus musculus but are present as a different electromorph in the sympatric species Mus spretus. Breeding data have established that the genetic control of the muscle enzyme is expressed by an autosomal structural locus Fbp-1 which is distinct from that expressing the liver, kidney, and testis enzyme, Fbp-2. The organ-specific expression of the two loci suggests possible functional differences between the two products.This work was supported by the Medical Research Council.  相似文献

Summary Isozymes of peroxidase (PER) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were analyzed in vegetative buds or very young leaves of seven species and two interspecific hybrids of Populus, in progenies of seven controlled crosses of three Populus species, and in needles of five Picea species and one putative hybrid. One to three PER, and one or two SOD zones of activity were observed. Electrophoretic mobility (EM) and banding phenotypes of isozymes of one PER locus were identical to those of one SOD locus in vegetative buds of five Populus species and hybrid. In leaves of the four Populus species and hybrid and progenies of controlled crosses, EM and phenotypes of isozymes of two PER loci were identical to those of two SOD loci. In Picea species, EM of isozymes of the only SOD locus was somewhat similar but not identical to that of one PER locus, and isozyme phenotypes of all individuals at the SOD locus were not identical to those at a PER locus. Chi-square tests verified the single-gene Mendelian control of the segregating allozyme variants at each of Per-L1 and Sod-1 in the three Populus species. The results of joint two-locus segregation tests indicated a very tight linkage and no recombination between Per-L1 and Sod-1 in three Populus species. Genes coding for isozymes of one or two PER loci are either presumably the same as, or very tightly linked to, the genes coding for isozymes of one or two SOD loci in the Populus species.  相似文献

The tissue and developmental specificities of the acid phosphatase (ACPH) isozymes of Triticum aestivum and its progenitor species T. turgidum and T. tauschii have been determined and compared using the zymogram technique. Tissue and/or developmental variation in relative staining intensity, suggestive of variation in the quantity of active enzyme present, was observed for each of the seven major isozymes expressed. Isozymes homologous to each of the major isozymes of the hexaploid were detected in one or the other of the progenitor species. No difference in the pattern of developmental or tissue specificity was observed between the species for any isozyme. However, ACPH-4, encoded by Acph4, a structural gene linked to chromosome 4A, differs in electrophoretic mobility between T. aestivum and T. turgidum, indicating that divergence has occurred between these species at the Acph4 locus since the origin of the hexaploid. The molecular weight of each of five ACPH isozymes of the hexaploid was determined to be approximately 58,000. This finding, plus the results of the developmental study and the earlier demonstration that the structural genes for six isozymes (including four of those whose molecular weight was determined) are linked to homoeologous chromosomes, provides evidence in support of the suggestion that the ACPH structural genes of hexaploid wheat are homoeologously related.Technical article No. 12233 of the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station.

Summary Genetic analyses were conducted on peroxidase of the embryo and endosperm of seeds of one open pollinated and six inbred lines of cultivated rye (Secale cereale L.), and one line of Secale vavilovii Grossh. The analyses of the individual parts of the S. cereale seed yield a total of 14 peroxidase isozymes. Isozymes m, a, b, c, d, e, f and g (in order from faster to slower migration) were found in the embryo plus scutellum, while isozymes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 (also from faster to slower migration) were peculiar of the endosperm. S. vavilovii has isozymes m, c1, d, e, f and g in its embryo plus scutellum, and isozyme 2 in the endosperm. Segregation data indicated that at least 13 different loci would be controlling the peroxidase of S. cereale. Isozymes a and b are controlled by alleles of the same locus, all the other loci have one active and dominant allele coding for one isozyme, and other null and recessive allele. The estimation of linkage relationships shows that five endosperm loci are linked, and tentative maps are shown. A possible dosage effect and the existence of controlling gene(s) for endosperm isozyme 4 is reported. All these data and the high frequency of null alleles found are discussed in relation to recent reports.  相似文献

The LDH isozymes were surveyed in bacterized cultures of syngens 1, 3, 12, and 13 of Paramecium caudatum by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. All the examined stocks of different syngens except one stock in syngen 3 had a single common LDH isozyme, and intra- and intersyngenic variation was not observed except for the one stock in syngen 3. Breeding data using the exceptional stock indicated that the LDH isozymes of P. caudatum are controlled by two codominant alleles at a single locus whose products aggregate randomly, forming a dimer.  相似文献

The alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) isozymes induced in flooded roots of the diploid plant Stephanomeria exigua are specified by tightly linked genes comprising a complex locus, Adh1. Individuals homozygous for a complex with two active genes which specify electrophoretically different subunits have three ADH-I isozymes, two intragenic homodimers and an intergenic heterodimer. Individual isozymes were partially purified from plants homozygous for several different Adh1 complexes and apparent K m values for acetaldehyde, ethanol, NAD, and NADH and responses to temperature, pH, and two different alcohols were determined. The two homodimeric enzymes specified by a particular Adh1 complex generally differed in one or more of the properties studied, and in three of four cases, intergenic heterodimers differed significantly from intermediacy, often having lower K m values than either homodimer. None of the isozymes studied could be considered greatly divergent or defective. Constraints on evolution of duplicate genes which form intergenic heterodimers are considered.  相似文献

Inheritance of 15 polymorphic isozymes was investigated in captive Microtus californicus. Eleven of the isozymes show patterns consistent with a Mendelian model of inheritance: glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD), lactate dehydrogenases A and B (LDH-A and LDH-B), malic enzyme 2 (ME-2), isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (ICD-1), phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGD), glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase 1 (GOT-1) phosphoglucomutase 2 (PGM-2), leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), glucosephosphate isomerase (GPI), and esterase 2 (ES-2, from kidney). four of the isozymes show patterns that cannot be interpreted by a simple genetic model: esterases 1 and 4 (ES-1, ES-4, from hemolysate), esterase 3 (ES-3, from plasma), and protein 1 (PT-1). The following pairs of loci are assorting independently: LAP and PGD, LAP and PGM-2, GOT-1 and PGD, GOT-1 and GPD, LAP and GPD, GPD and PGD, GPI and PGD. Data from one test cross mating indicate that GPD and PGM-2 are loosely linked with recombination about 30%. Additional data are needed to confirm this relationship.This study was conducted while the first author was the recipient of an NIH Traineeship.

We previously reported the purification of an acid phosphatase (APase52) secreted from the mycelia ofPholiota nameko under phosphate-deficient conditions. In the present study, two other isozymes (APase47 and APase48) were found and their structures were compared with that of APase52. Thirteen amino acid residues at theN-terminus of APase47 were completely identical with those of APase48 and had partial homology with those of APase52. The deglycosylation of proteins indicated that three APase isozymes differ in theN-linked oligosaccharide content. The protease-generated peptide maps of the APases differed from one another in the band pattern. These results suggest that the APases are the products of different genes.  相似文献

RAPD markers for constructing intraspecific tomato genetic maps   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
The existing molecular genetic maps of the tomato, Lycopersicon spp, are constructed based on isozyme and RFLP polymorphisms between tomato species. These maps are useful for certain applications but have few markers that exhibit sufficient polymorphisms for intraspecific analysis and manipulations within the cultivated tomato. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relative potential of RAPD technology, as compared to isozymes and RFLPs, to generate polymorphic DNA markers within cultivated tomatoes. Sixteen isozymes and 25 RFLP clones that were known to detect polymorphism between L. esculentum and L. pennellii, and 313 random oligonucleotide primers were examined. None of the isozymes and only four of the RFLP clones (i.e., 16%) revealed polymorphism between the cultivated varieties whereas up to 63% of the RAPD primers detected one or more polymorphic DNA fragments between these varieties. All RAPD primers detected polymorphism between L. esculentum and L. pennellii genotypes. These results clearly indicate that RAPD technology can generate sufficient genetic markers exploiting sequence differences within cultivated tomatoes to facilitate construction of intraspecific genetic maps.Abbreviations RFLP restriction fragments length polymorphism - RAPD random amplified polymorphic DNA - PCR polymerase chain reaction - QTLs quantitative trait loci  相似文献

Summary To examine the possibility of producing asymmetric somatic hybrids of Brassica having a complete genome of one species and a part of the other, we fused inactivated B. oleracea protoplasts with X-irradiated B. campestris protoplasts. The plants obtained were studied with regard to their morphology, isozymes and chromosomes. The morphology of the hybrids was similar to B. oleracea in 9 out of 22 hybrids studied and the rest showed the intermediate phenotype of the parents. Analysis of three isozymes, leucine aminopeptidase, acid phosphatase and esterase indicated that ten hybrids lost B. campestris-specific bands in one or more of the three isozymes examined. The chromosome analysis showed that 90% of the hybrids were aneuploids. In addition, abnormal chromosomes were often found in root tip cells. These results suggested that the hybrids obtained were asymmetric in nature and resulted from elimination of B. campestris chromosomes by X-ray irradiation.  相似文献

Homosporous ferns are generally considered polyploid due to high chromosome numbers, but genetically diploid since the expression of isozymes is generally controlled by a single locus. Gene silencing over evolutionary time is one means by which this apparent contradiction can be explained. A prediction of this hypothesis is that silenced gene sequences still reside in the genomes of homosporous ferns. We examined the genomes ofCeratopteris richardii andC. thalictroides for sequences which are similar to expressed gene sequences. Genomic DNA blots hybridized withC. richardii cDNA clones showed that the majority of these clones detected multiple fragments, suggesting that most gene-like sequences are duplicated inCeratopteris. Hybridization signal intensity often varied between fragments of the same size between accessions, sometimes dramatically, which indicates that not all sequences are equivalent, and may represent the products of silenced genes. Observed reciprocal differences in intensity could be due to reciprocally silenced genes. In addition, an unusual segregation pattern for one locus followed by one probe may indicate homeologous chromosome pairing and segregation.  相似文献

Electrophoretic variation in alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) was examined in tetraploidGossypium hirsutum and its putative diploid progenitorsG. ramondii, G. herbaceum, and a close relative,G. arboreum. All the diploids had three isozymes, while strains of the tetraploidG. hirsutum had either 4 or 6. Each isozyme was eluted from starch gels and significant differences in activity were noted between several of the isozymes relative to pH, substrate, temperature and salinity. This suggests that an increase in enzyme heterozygosity can result in higher levels of developmental homeostasis, but it depends on the isozyme alleles involved.

The interspecies homology of dace supernatant (A2, AB, B2) and mitochondrial (C2) malate dehydrogenase isozymes has been established through cell fractionation and tissue distribution studies. Isolated supernatant malate dehydrogenase (s-MDH) isozymes show significant differences in Michaelis constants for oxaloacetate and in pH optima. Shifts in s-MDH isozyme pH optima with temperature may result in immediate compensation for increase in ectotherm body pH with decrease in temperature, but duplicate s-MDH isozymes are probably maintained through selection for tissue specific regulation of metabolism.This research was supported in part by NSF Grant SM176-83974 and a grant from the Blakeslee Fund.  相似文献

Two unlinked genes, Adh 1 and Adh 2, control the production of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) in seeds of the annual sunflower (Helianthus annuus). Each gene is polymorphic, having F and S alleles. Starch gel electrophoretic zymograms of the four possible double homozygotes have three bands, representing two homodimers and an intermediately migrating intergenic isozyme. Zymograms of double heterozygotes consist of nine bands produced by ten isozymes: six intragenics and four intergenics, two of which are coincident. Results of dissociation-recombination (D-R) experiments are reported which demonstrate the subunit composition of the intergenic isozymes, thus supporting the relationships suggested by genetic studies. Densitometric tracings of the zymogram of a cleared gel and measurements of activities of homodimer isozymes eluted from gels following D-R of an intergenic isozyme showed that the Adh 2 isozymes were more than twice as active as those of Adh 1. Measurements of activities of crude extracts from the four possible double homozygous genotypes indicated that the seeds of the genotype Adh 1 F /Adh 1 F , Adh 2 S /Adh 2 S produced more activity than the other three. This genotype is the most common one found in wild and cultivated stocks. Isozymes eluted following electrophoresis of the same extracts had averages of 19%, 70%, and 11% of total activity contributed by the Adh 1, Adh2, and intergenic isozymes, respectively. A simple but efficient method of isozyme elution from starch gels is described which resulted in nearly full expected recovery (approximately 46%) of the ADH activity in the applied sample.Supported by Graduate School and BioMed grants and by NSF Grant GB35853.  相似文献

Summary The analysis of the individual parts of the Triticum aestivum L. kernel yields a total of 11 peroxidase isozymes: m, n, a, c, d1, d, d2, e, f, g and h (in order from faster to slower migration). Isozymes a, c and d are found in the endosperm (Ed) and seed coats (C), while m, n, d1, d2, e, f, g and h are peculiar to the embryo and scutellum (E + S). The use of the nullitetrasomic and ditellosomic series of Chinese Spring wheat allows peroxidase isozymes to be associated with specific chromosome arms. Isozymes a, c and d (Ed) are associated with chromosome arms 7DS, 4BL and 7AS; whereas isozymes m, d2, e and f are associated with chromosome arms 3DS, 3BL, 3DL and 3DL, respecitvely. Thus, the E + S isozymes are associated with homoeology group 3 and the Ed isozymes with homoeology groups 7 (a and d isozymes) or 4 (c isozymes).  相似文献

Two catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C1,2O) isozymes (IsoA and IsoB) have been purified to homogeneity from a strain of Acinetobacter radioresistens grown on benzoate as the sole carbon and energy source. IsoA and IsoB are both homodimers composed of a single type of subunit with molecular mass of 38,600 and 37,700, Da respectively. In conditions of low ionic strength, IsoA can aggregate as a trimer, in contrast to IsoB, which maintains the dimeric structure, as also supported by the kinetic parameters (Hill numbers). IsoA is identical to the enzyme previously purified from the same bacterium grown on phenol, whereas the IsoB is selectively expressed using benzoate as carbon source. This is the first evidence of the presence of differently expressed C1,2O isozymes in A. radioresistens or more generally of multiple C1,2O isozymes in benzoate-grown Acinetobacter cells. Purified IsoA and IsoB contain approximately 1 iron(III) ion per subunit and both show electronic absorbance and EPR features typical of Fe(III) intradiol dioxygenases. The kinetic properties of the two enzymes such as the specificities toward substituted catechols, the main catalytic parameters, and their behavior in the presence of different kind of inhibitors are, unexpectedly, very similar, in contrast to most of the previously known dioxygenase isozymes.  相似文献

Summary Tissue browning that frequently results in the early death of bamboo shoots in vitro correlated directly with polyphenol oxidase (PPO, EC 1.10.3.1) activity and inversely with titratable acidity. It was unrelated to the level of endogenous phenols. During the course of culture, timing of PPO activity paralleled that of explant browning. Browning was highest among shoots cultured in a medium of pH 8, which was consistent with the pH optinum of the bamboo enzyme. The pH optimum was first determined with the crude enzyme, then verified with two purified isozymes. Stability of the bamboo PPO was also highest at pH 10. PPO activities of the severely browning Dendrocalamus latiflorus, the moderately browning Phyllostachys nigra, and the relatively non-browning Bambusa oldhamii were inhibited strongly by ascorbic acid, cysteine, sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, and sodium sulfite. But characterization of bamboo PPO according to enzyme inhibitors was not possible because enzyme extracts of the three species gave varied responses to the traditional substances. Nutrient medium addenda of some PPO inhibitors, namely ascorbic acid, cysteine, kojic acid, and thiourea, mainly enhanced browning. However, ferulic acid at 3 mM and lower concentrations reduced the number of brown shoots per culture, although not the percentage of cultures that browned. Polyvinylpyrrolidone failed completely to suppress browning. The two purified isozymes showed different temperature optima for PPO activity: 60°C and 65°C. The purified isozymes displayed a substrate preference for dopamine, or a cathecol oxidase characteristics.  相似文献

The genus Arachis contains a large number of species and undescribed taxa with patterns of genetic variation that are little understood. The objectives of this investigation were to estimate genetic diversity among species of Arachis by utilizing electrophoretic techniques and to establish the potential for use of isozymes as markers for germplasm introgression. One-hundred-and-thirteen accessions representing six of the seven sections of the genus were analyzed for isozyme variation of 17 enzymes. Section Rhizomatosae species were not included because they produce very few seeds. Seeds were macerated and the crude extract was used for starch-gel electrophoretic analyses. Although the cultivated species has few polymorphic isozymes, the diploid species are highly variable and two-to-six bands were observed for each isozyme among accessions. Because of the large number of isozyme differences between A. hypogaea and A. batizocoi (the presumed donor of the B genome), this species can no longer be considered as a progenitor of the cultivated peanut. Seed-to-seed polymorphisms within many accessions were also observed which indicate that germplasm should be maintained as bulk seed lots, representative of many individuals, or as lines from individual plants from original field collections. The area of greatest interspecific genetic diversity was in Mato Grosso, Brazil; however, the probability of finding unique alleles from those observed in A. hypogaea was greatest in north, north-central, south and southeast Brazil. The large number of polymorphic loci should be useful as genetic markers for interspecific hybridization studies.  相似文献

Physiological regulation of laccase production from Ganoderma sp. KU-Alk4, isolated in Thailand, was controlled by the initial glucose concentration in liquid culture. Different laccase isozymes were produced using different starting concentrations of glucose. With 1% glucose, two isozymes, KULac 1 and 2 were produced, while with 4% glucose, three different isozymes, KULac 3, 4 and 5, were produced. The KULacs differed in their molecular mass, ranging from 53 to 112 kDa. KULac 2 was a new laccase that had a different N-terminal amino acid sequence from other laccases previously reported. All the isozymes had optimum pH at 3.5 and were stable over the wide range of pH, 3.0–10.0, especially in alkaline pH. It is noteworthy that the activities of the four KULacs with 2,6-dimethoxyphenol were extremely high up to 90°C. They retained 100% of their activities at 60°C for 1 h.  相似文献

A new cell line, UM-AVE1, was established from embryos of the mosquito Aedes vexans. Banding patterns for the isozymes lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH), xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), and esterases were compared with those of larval Aedes vexans tissues as well as those of four other mosquito cell lines and one moth cell line. Karyotype analyses confirmed that the dipteran cell lines were not contaminated with lepidopteran cells, because in all mosquito lines the modal number of chromosomes was 6 (=2n) or 7. Isozyme electrophoresis established a specific profile for each cell line. Two isozymes present in UM-AVE1 (LDH, IDH) were not detected in larvae; this could be a reflection of the different stages used for cell line isolation and enzyme analysis, or lability of sample preparations. It is significant that extracts from UM-AVE1 cells and Aedes vexans larvae had an identical double band for XDH, while all other cell lines examined exhibited only a single band.  相似文献
