To elucidate the role of amh and foxl2 in sex differentiation of the teleost fish Schizothorax kozlovi, the full-length cDNAs were cloned from the mature testis and ovary by rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), and their relative mRNA expression levels were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction among tissues and temperature groups. The complete amh and foxl2 cDNAs of S. kozlovi were 2060 bp and 1750 bp, which encoded 568 and 306 amino acids, respectively. The amh were expressed only in gonads, while foxl2 was expressed in the gills, brain and gonads, both exhibiting relatively high tissue specificity. The amh exhibited sex-specific expression pattern in the gonads. No sex differences in the foxl2 expression were observed in the brain and gonads, but significant sex differences were found in the gills. No significant differences were found in the foxl2 expression, from the larval to the juvenile stage, and also between different temperature groups. However, significant differences were found in the expression levels of amh from the larval (12–63 days posthatching (dph)) to the juvenile stage (190 dph), and also among the \(18{^{\circ }}\hbox {C}\) and \(10{^{\circ }}\hbox {C}\) groups at 31 dph. This result suggested that amh plays an important role in male sex differentiation of S. kozlovi during the early developmental stage, but no similar effect was observed in foxl2. 相似文献

This study was designed to identify the rare?type?ABO?blood?groups, B(A) 02, from Eastern China. Three samples with discordant serological results during routine blood type identification and four samples from one sample’ family were selected. All of them were detected by serological method. The exon 6 and 7 of the ABO genes were amplified by PCR and sequenced. They were typed as AsubB by serology and as BO by genotype. In AsubB samples, nt 700C>G mutation was detected in B gene, which was previously defined as B(A)02 alleles. In these seven samples, six showed B(A)02/O01 and one showed B(A)02/O02.B(A)02 allele was found to be more common in this study than B(A)04 which is considered to be more frequent than B(A)02. The careful identification of rare blood types is important for the safety of clinical blood transfusion. 相似文献

Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease of global importance. There is an increasing recognition of the role of Toll like receptors, important pattern recognition receptors of host immune system, in determining the susceptibility or resistance to TB in various populations. In an attempt to examine the importance of Toll like receptors in immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, we explored two variants each of TLR2 and TLR9 in a population residing in Uttar Pradesh, India. Genotyping was performed to detect -196 to -174 del polymorphism and G2258A SNP (Arg753Gln, rs5743708) in TLR2 gene and -T1237C (rs5743836) and G2848A (rs352140) SNP in TLR9 gene in patients with pulmonary TB and healthy controls. The A allele of G2848A SNP in TLR9 gene was found with a marginally higher frequency among TB patients as compared to healthy controls, suggesting that A allele at position 2848 of TLR9 gene may be associated with susceptibility to TB in North Indian population [p?=?0.05, Mantel–Haenszel OR?=?1.34, 95% CI (1.0–1.82)]. 相似文献

Poplar, a fast-growing species widely used outside its original area of distribution, was evaluated in the present study to verify its tolerance and hardening to waterlogging in anticipation of its implementation in rehabilitation practices for marginal lands subjected to flooding. Three water regimes were applied to the plants, grown in pots, with two clones (I-488 and D-64) with different sensitivities to flooding. These plants included a lot consisting of control plants (C), which were irrigated with good drainage, a non-preconditioned lot (NPr), and a third lot that was preconditioned to flooding (Pr). Furthermore, flooding was imposed on NPr and Pr plants by submerging pots up to 5 cm above the collar for 60 days followed by a 40-day recovery period. At the end of these two periods, shoot dry mass, foliar concentrations of certain ions, soluble sugars, starch and proline, and the relative electrolyte leakage were evaluated. The preconditioning treatment conferred different degrees of hardness on the treated plants compared with NPr plants. Our results revealed that high carbohydrate availability (soluble sugars and starch) is suggested to participate in sustaining membrane integrity which may affect the recuperative potential of Pr plants, notably those of clone I-488, from flooding damage. 相似文献

The Streaked Horned Lark (STHL; Eremophila alpestris strigata) is a federal candidate for listing under the Endangered Species Act. We evaluated the conservation status and level of genetic
diversity of the STHL using the complete mitochondrial ND2 gene. We sampled 32 STHLs from the southern Puget Sound region,
the Pacific coast, and Whites Island in the Columbia River of Washington, and additional 68 horned larks from Alaska, alpine
and eastern Washington, Oregon, California, and Asia (outgroups). Our Maximum Likelihood analysis of 32 haplotypes identified
three geographically concordant clades in Pacific coast states: Pacific Northwest (alpine and eastern Washington, Alaska),
Pacific Coast (western Washington, California), and Great Basin (eastern Oregon). Each of the three clades was supported by
bootstrap values ≥86%. The distance among them varied from 0.72 to 0.79% nucleotide divergence excluding intraclade variation.
The relationship among the clades was not resolved. AMOVA also showed significant structuring of haplotypes among the three
clades. Differences among clades accounted for 75.7% of sequence variation, differences among localities within clades accounted
for 12.1%, and differences among individuals within localities accounted for the remaining 12.2%. Although STHL populations
were closely related to the Californian sample, they appeared unique and isolated. All pairwise F
st values involving the STHL samples were significant (except between themselves). STHLs appear to have remarkably low genetic
diversity; all 32 STHLs shared the same haplotype. Even with small sample sizes, all other localities had multiple haplotypes.
Because the STHL appears to be unique and isolated, and to have little genetic diversity our data suggest it should be a conservation
priority. 相似文献

We present a projected [1H,15N]-HMQC-[1H,1H]-NOESY experiment for observation of NOE interactions between amide protons with degenerate 15N chemical shifts in large molecular systems. The projection is achieved by simultaneous evolution of the multiple quantum
coherence of the nitrogen spin and the attached proton spin. In this way NOE signals can be separated from direct-correlation
peaks also in spectra with low resolution by fully exploiting both 1H and 15N frequency differences, such that sensitivity can be increased by using short maximum evolution times. The sensitivity of
the experiment is not dependent on the projection angle for projections up to 45° and no additional pulses or delays are required
as compared to the conventional 2D [1H,15N]-HMQC-NOESY. The experiment provides two distinct 2D spectra corresponding to the positive and negative angle projections,
respectively. With a linear combination of 1D cross-sections from the two projections the unavoidable sensitivity loss in
projection spectra can be compensated for each particular NOE interaction. We demonstrate the application of the novel projection
experiment for the observation of an NOE interaction between two sequential glycines with degenerate 15N chemical shifts in a 121.3 kDa complex of the linker H1 histone protein with a 152 bp linear DNA. 相似文献

Wide-compatibility (WC) is one of the most important traits in rice, which can overcome the fertility barrier in the indica/japonica hybrids, and hence to make it possible to utilize the higher yield potential of inter-subspecific hybrids. The S
5
n
gene located on chromosome 6 has been previously reported to be responsible for the wide-compatibility in rice. Here we report
the precise location of the S
5
n
gene. In the first-pass mapping, the S
5
n
gene was restricted within a 200 kb region by using a population of 242 isogenic lines in combination with high-density markers
developed in the S
5 region. In the fine mapping, the S
5 region was further saturated with newly developed markers and more isogenic lines (549 in total) were investigated. Eventually,
the S
5
n
gene was mapped within a 50 kb region delimited by the left marker J13 and the right marker J17. One BAC clone screened from
the BAC library of the WC rice variety 02428 covered the whole S
5 region. Sequence analysis of the 50 kb region revealed two candidate genes, coding an aspartyl protease and a hypothetical
protein. This result would greatly accelerate both cloning and marker-assisted selection of this important S
5
n
gene.

During normal kidney function, there are routinely wide swings in proximal tubule fluid flow and proportional changes in Na+ reabsorption across tubule epithelial cells. This “glomerulotubular balance” occurs in the absence of any substantial change
in cell volume, and is thus a challenge to coordinate luminal membrane solute entry with peritubular membrane solute exit.
In this work, linear optimal control theory is applied to generate a configuration of regulated transporters that could achieve
this result. A previously developed model of rat proximal tubule epithelium is linearized about a physiologic reference condition;
the approximate linear system is recast as a dynamical system; and a Riccati equation is solved to yield the optimal linear
feedback that stabilizes Na+ flux, cell volume, and cell pH. The first observation is that optimal feedback control is largely consigned to three physiologic
variables, cell volume, cell electrical potential, and lateral intercellular hydrostatic pressure. Parameter modulation by
cell volume stabilizes cell volume; parameter modulation by electrical potential or interspace pressure act to stabilize Na+ flux and cell pH. This feedback control is utilized in a tracking problem, in which reabsorptive Na+ flux varies over a factor of two, in order to represent a substantial excursion of glomerulotubular balance. The resulting
control parameters consist of two terms, an autonomous term and a feedback term, and both terms include transporters on both
luminal and peritubular cell membranes. Overall, the increase in Na+ flux is achieved with upregulation of luminal Na+/H+ exchange and Na+–glucose cotransport, with increased peritubular Na+–3HCO3− and K+–Cl− cotransport, and with increased Na+, K+–ATPase activity. The configuration of activated transporters emerges as a testable hypothesis of the molecular basis for
glomerulotubular balance. It is suggested that the autonomous control component at each cell membrane could represent the
cytoskeletal effects of luminal flow. 相似文献

Morinda royoc L. (Rubiaceae) root cultures were established for the production of anthraquinones (AQs). Three independent experiments were
performed to evaluate the effects of different levels of indole-3-acetic acid (0–22.8 μM), culture duration (15–75 days) and
subculture number (0–4). The following indicators were recorded: root fresh weight per Erlenmeyer and intracellular and extracellular
AQ production. The experiments performed in this study allowed an increase of intracellular AQ content up to a maximum of
4.5 mg g−1 of fresh mass, after 30 days of culture in a medium 5.7 μM of IAA. In addition, isolation and identification of seven AQs
from M. royoc L. roots is described, one of them being reported for the first time for this species. The structures of isolated compounds
were determined from 1H-NMR data. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on AQ production from root culture of this plant. 相似文献

Proteins encoded by genes of the SSX family are specifically expressed in tumors and are therefore relevant targets for cancer immunotherapy. One of the first identified family members, SSX-1, is expressed in a large fraction of synovial sarcomas as a fusion protein together with the product of the SYT gene. In addition, the full-length SSX-1 antigen is frequently expressed in tumors of several other histological types such as sarcoma, melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, ovarian cancer and myeloma. To date, however, SSX-1 specific T cell responses have not been investigated and no SSX-1 derived T cell epitopes have been described. Here, we have assessed the presence of CD4(+) T cells directed against the SSX-1 antigen in circulating lymphocytes of cancer-free individuals. After a single in vitro stimulation with a pool of peptides spanning the entire SSX-1 protein we could detect and isolate SSX-1-specific CD4(+) T cells from 5/5 donors analyzed. SSX-1-specific polyclonal populations isolated from these cultures recognized peptides located in three distinct regions of the protein containing clusters of sequences with significant predicted binding to frequently expressed MHC class II alleles. Characterization of specific clonal CD4(+) T cell populations derived from one donor allowed the identification of several naturally processed epitopes recognized in association with HLA-DR. These data document the existence of a significant repertoire of CD4(+) T cells specific for SSX-1 derived sequences in circulating lymphocytes of any individual that can be exploited for the development of both passive and active immunotherapeutic approaches to control disease evolution in cancer patients. 相似文献

A high-resolution physical map targeting a cluster of yield-related QTLs on the long arm of rice chromosome 9 has been constructed
across a 37.4 kb region containing seven predicted genes. Using a series of BC3F4 nearly isogenic lines (NILs) derived from a cross between the Korean japonica cultivar Hwaseongbyeo and Oryza rufipogon (IRGC 105491), a total of seven QTLs for 1,000-grain weight, spikelets per panicle, grains per panicle, panicle length, spikelet
density, heading date and plant height were identified in the cluster (P ≤ 0.0001). All seven QTLs were additive, and alleles from the low-yielding O. rufipogon parent were beneficial in the Hwaseongbyeo background. Yield trials with BC3F4 NILs showed that lines containing a homozygous O. rufipogon introgression in the target region out-yielded sibling NILs containing Hwaseongbyeo DNA by 14.2–17.7%, and out-yielded the
Hwaseongbyeo parent by 16.2–23.7%. While higher yielding plants containing the O. rufipogon introgression were also taller and later than controls, the fact that all seven of the QTLs were co-localized in the same
37.4 kb interval suggests the possibility that a single, pleiotropic gene acting as a major regulator of plant development
may control this suite of agronomically important plant phenotypes.

The efficiency of two pollinators, Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae) and the mason bee Osmia cornuta (Latreille) (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae), as carriers of biocontrol agents (BCA) from flower to flower (secondary colonisation) was investigated on apple cv ‘Golden Delicious’. The BCA tested was Bacillus subtilis, strain BD170 (Biopro®) developed for the control of the ‘fire blight’ caused by Erwinia amylovora (Burril) Winslow et al. The two insect species were studied as secondary BCA carriers on apple plants in pots under net screened tunnels. Their behaviour and capacity to deposit the BCA in the most receptive flower parts were compared both by washing, diluting and plating the flower organs on a recovery medium and by means of PCR analyses based on a molecular marker. O. cornuta showed better performances with respect to A. mellifera. For the field trials, pollinators were introduced in four apple orchards. During apple’s flowering, the BD170 (100 g hl?l) was sprayed once in two fields, and twice in the others. The pollinators’ efficacy in carrying the BCA from sprayed flowers to the stigmas of newly opened ones at different times after the spray treatment was evaluated. The detection of the BCA was performed by PCR analysis. The percentages of positive PCR flower samples were higher in the internal treated areas of the fields with respect to the external untreated ones, but the high colonisation level found in the latter and in the flowers opened in both areas several days after the treatment(s) demonstrated that pollinators can play an important role as secondary carriers. 相似文献

Well-feathered apple trees are essential for commercial orchards to optimize yields. However, most cultivars do not form these sylleptic branches readily in commercial nurseries due to high apical dominance. Several treatments exist to promote their formation in the nurseries, one of which is heading. However, not all cultivars are expected to react similarly to these treatments. We studied the branching response of 155 genotypes following heading and its relation to other architectural traits as a function of the cultivar’s genetic background. Trees were grown for two consecutive years after grafting in a nursery, and the main axes were headed in the winter following growth in year 1. After heading, a single shoot was retained when growth resumed in the second year. Plant architectural traits such as growth of the main shoot, internode length, sylleptic branching, etc. were measured before and after heading and were statistically compared using a mixed model. This model showed the effect of heading for all architectural traits studied. In addition significant genotype and genotype × treatment interactions were found. In general, genotypes that showed a more vigorous growth during the first year also reacted more vigorously to heading. Accounting for the genetic substructure of this collection, no clear distinction in tree response could be found except in a small group of individuals that belonged to an F1 mapping population. This study shows that heading is not favorable for all genotypes to promote sufficient sylleptic branching and that other methods are needed to promote branching in these accessions. 相似文献

To study the production of secondary metabolites of Maesa lanceolata and Medicago truncatula, hairy root cultures of both plant species were established. Because maintenance of large numbers of cultures is laborious
and costly, we developed a cryopreservation protocol and stored different isolated lines over time. Using encapsulation-dehydration,
high survival rates were observed for both Maesa and Medicago hairy roots. Root tips were isolated and encapsulated in calcium-alginate beads, containing 0.1 M sucrose. The encapsulated
hairy roots were precultured for 3 days using basal medium containing high sucrose concentrations. Medicago root tip growth during the preculturing time lead to unwanted outgrowth which could be tempered by addition of plant growth
inhibitors. After preculturing, the beads were dehydrated in the air flow of a laminar flow until 35–40% of the initial bead
weight was reached. Dehydrated beads were plunged into liquid nitrogen and after different storage times thawed in a water
bath at 40°C. The survival rates were 90% for Maesa and 53% for Medicago, which are sufficient to allow implementation in large storage experimental set-ups. 相似文献
