Summary The DNA homology and adsorption specificity of newly isolated virulent bacteriophages of P. aeruginosa have been studied. On the basis of this analysis all phages were divided into four groups: k, m, mnP78-like and mnF82-like bacteriophages. DNA's of k as well as m phages were shown to possess different restriction patterns although they have an extensive homology. Unlike other groups, k phages were characterized by the presence of T4 DNA ligase-repaired, single-chain breaks.Abbreviations kbp

A comparative study was made of a group ofPseudomonas aeruginosa virulent giant DNA bacteriophages similar to phage KZ in several genetic and phenotypic properties (particle size, particle morphology, genome size, appearance of negative colonies, high productivity, broad spectrum of lytic activity, ability to overcome the suppressing effect of plasmids, absence of several DNA restriction sites, capability of general transduction, pseudolysogeny). We have recently sequenced the phage KZ genome (288 334 bp) [J. Mol. Biol., 2002, vol. 317, pp. 1–19]. By DNA homology, the phages were assigned to three species (represented by phages KZ, Lin68, and EL, respectively) and two new genera (KZ and EL). Restriction enzyme analysis revealed the mosaic genome structure in four phages of the KZ species (KZ, Lin21, NN, and PTB80) and two phages of the EL species (EL and RU). Comparisons with respect to phage particle size, number of structural proteins, and the N-terminal sequences of the major capsid protein confirmed the phylogenetic relatedness of the phages belonging to the KZ genus. The origin and evolution of the KZ-like phages are discussed. Analysis of protein sequences encoded by the phage KZ genome made it possible to assume wide migration of the KZ-like phages (wandering phages) among various prokaryotes and possibly eukaryotes. Since the phage KZ genome codes for potentially toxic proteins, caution must be exercised in the employment of large bacteriophages in phage therapy. 相似文献

We investigated the influence of the combined use of sizofiran, a-1,3-glucan and a recombinant interferon- (rIFN-) upon biological activities of peritoneal macrophages (M). The number of peritoneal M and the production of cytokines (interleukin-1, interferon- and tumor necrosis factor) was increased by the combined treatment. Fully activated peritoneal M based on the increased number of elongated pseudopods were observed by electromicroscope. Sizofiran seems to assure a sufficient supply of M to kill tumor cells in the peritoneal cavity and co-administered rIFN- seems to directly stimulate the accumulated M in addition to its direct cytotoxicity against tumor cells. This combination therapy may be a step to the prevention of the recurrence of gynecological malignancies including ovarian cancer, after a negative second-look laparotomy.Abbreviations rIFN-

The low-light reduction in the quantum yield of photosynthesis: potential errors and biases when calculating the maximum quantum yield 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Photosynthesis-irradiance (P-E) curves are widely used to describe photosynthetic efficiency and potential. Contemporary models assume maximal photosynthetic quantum yield () at low irradiances. But P-E observations made with both oxygen evolution and carbon uptake techniques show that this is not always the case. Using new and published data in conjunction with modeling exercises, we demonstrate that regardless of the mechanism there can be reductions in at low irradiances that are not readily observable using conventional P-E analyses. We also show that analytical errors, such as inaccurate estimation of dark oxygen consumption or carbon uptake, can markedly affect the structure of -E curves with negligible effect on P-E curve structure. Whether from respiration `corrections' or other mechanisms, these deviations in at low light levels from the maximum quantum yield of photosynthesis (max) can lead to significant errors (> 50%) in the estimation of the linear portion of the P-E curve and ultimately max. Non-linear models of P-E, such as the rectangular hyperbola, quadratic, exponential and hyperbolic tangent that are commonly used to estimate the initial slope () of the P-E curve assume that is maximal at low light levels and therefore can err in the estimation of max when is reduced at low light levels. Using a diverse data set of 622 P-E curves with a total of 7623 points, we show that although model skills are high (r
2 = 0.96 ± 0.05, 0.97 ± 0.04, 0.97 ± 0.04 and 0.97 ± 0.04, respectively), a large fraction of the model-predicted max differ by greater than 10% from true max values (91%, 50%, 82% and 46%, respectively). Data from these observations and modeling exercises lead us to suggest that max be determined by directly estimating the true maximum of a -E curve rather than using the more conventional methodology employing the initial slope of the P-E curve.This revised version was published online in October 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date. 相似文献

A strategy is developed to use database-derived - constraints during simulated annealing procedures for protein solution structure determination in order to improve the Ramachandran plot statistics, while maintaining the agreement with the experimental constraints as the sole criterion for the selection of the family. The procedure, fully automated, consists of two consecutive simulated annealing runs. In the first run, the database-derived - constraints are enforced for all aminoacids (but prolines and glycines). A family of structures is then selected on the ground of the lowest violations of the experimental constraints only, and the - values for each residue are examined. In the second and final run, the database-derived - constraints are enforced only for those residues which in the first run have ended in one and the same favored - region. For residues which are either spread over different favored regions or concentrated in disallowed regions, the constraints are not enforced. The final family is then selected, after the second run, again only based on the agreement with the experimental constraints. This automated approach was implemented in DYANA and was tested on as many as 12 proteins, including some containing paramagnetic metals, whose structures had been previously solved in our laboratory. The quality of the structures, and of Ramachandran plot statistics in particular, was notably improved while preserving the agreement with the experimental constraints. 相似文献

In the DNA of bacteriophage W-14, half the thymine is replaced by a -putrescinylthymine (putThy). Analysis of monopyrimidine tracts shows that putThy and thymine are distributed nonrandomly in W-14 DNA: The sequence purine-putThy-purine occurs more than twice as frequently as the sequence purine-thymine-purine, which means that the post-replicative modification of W-14 DNA is sequence-specific. 相似文献

The dynamics of coupled biological oscillators can be modeled by averaging the effects of coupling over each oscillatory cycle so that the coupling depends on the phase difference between the two oscillators and not on their specific states. Average phase difference theory claims that mode locking phenomena can be predicted by the average effects of the coupling influences. As a starting point for both empirical and theoretical investigations, Rand et al. (1988) have proposed d/dt= — K sin ), with phase-locked solutions =arcsin( /K), where is the difference between the uncoupled frequencies and K is the coupling strength. Phase-locking was evaluated in three experiments using an interlimb coordination paradigm in which a person oscillates hand-held pendulums. was controlled through length differences in the left and right pendulums. The coupled frequency c was varied by a metronome, and scaled to the eigenfrequency v of the coupled system K was assumed to vary inversely with c. The results indicate that: (1) and K contribute multiplicatively to (2) =0 or = regardless of K when =0; (3) 0 or regardless of when K is large (relative to ); (4) results (1) to (3) hold identically for both in phase and antiphase coordination. The results also indicate that the relevant frequency is c/v rather than c. Discussion high-lighted the significance of confirming =arcsin(/K) for more general treatments of phase-locking, such as circle map dynamics, and for the 11 phase-entrainment which characterizes biological movement systems. 相似文献

The dependence between the anomeric carbon chemical shift and the glycosidic bond , dihedral angles in oligosaccharide and glycopeptide model compounds was studied by Gauge-Including Atomic Orbital (GIAO) ab initio calculations. Complete chemical shift surfaces versus and for d-Glcp-d-Glcp disaccharides with (11), (12), (13), and (14) linkages in both - and -configurations were computed using a 3-21G basis set, and scaled to reference results from calculations at the 6-311G** level of theory. Similar surfaces were obtained for GlcNAcThr and GlcNAcSer model glycopeptides in - and -configurations, using in this case different conformations for the peptide moiety. The results obtained for both families of model compounds are discussed. We also present the determination of empirical formulas of the form 13C=f(,) obtained by fitting the raw ab initio data to trigonometric series expansions suitable for use in molecular mechanics and dynamics simulations. Our investigations are consistent with experimental observations and earlier calculations performed on smaller glycosidic bond models, and show the applicability of chemical shift surfaces in the study of the conformational behavior of oligosaccharides and glycopeptides. 相似文献

In this paper we analyse a stochastic model for invertebrate predation taking account of the predator's satiation. This model approximates Holling's hungry mantid model when handling time is negligible (see Part I). For this model we derive equations from which we can calculate the functional response and the variance of the total catch. Moreover we study a number of approximations which can be used to calculate these quantities in practical cases in a relatively simple manner.List of Notation

Phages infecting the industrially important Actinoplanes strain SN223 were isolated from soil samples collected at the shores of inland waters in Germany. The genome sizes range from 53 kb to 58 kb. Preliminary analyses revealed G+C contents comparable with the G/C bias of the host. Electron microscopy of three selected viruses displayed no obvious morphological differences, the phage heads being icosahedral and their tails non-contractible. Two of the phages (Asp2, Asp3.1) characterized in more detail are capable of provoking putative pseudolysogenic growth of the host bacterium. The carrier state for Asp2, in which cells are tightly packed with viruses, was demonstrated by electron microscopy. The latter phage is apparently widely distributed, as it was isolated from regions which are distantly located, i.e. more than 600 km apart from each other. 相似文献

A [CO]HN(CA)CB-E.COSY pulse scheme is described for measurement of three-bond couplings, 3JCC, between carbonyl and aliphatic C carbons in ubiquitin, uniformly enriched with 13C and 15N. A Karplus relation, 3JCC = 1.28 cos2( - 120°) -1.02 cos( - 120°) +0.30 Hz, is obtained by correlating the 3JCC values measured for human ubiquitin with backbone angles from its crystal structure. As predicted, the new Karplus parametrization yields 3JCC values slightly larger than previously obtained by quantitative J correlation [Hu, J.-S. and Bax, A. (1997) J. Am. Chem. Soc., 119, 6360-6368], but considerably smaller than what has been reported on the basis of other E.COSY-type measurements carried out on flavodoxin. 相似文献

The concept of self-consistent J coupling evaluation exploits redundant structure information inherent in large sets of 3J coupling constants. Application to the protein Desulfovibrio vulgaris flavodoxin demonstrates the simultaneous refinement of torsion-angle values and related Karplus coefficients. The experimental basis includes quantitative coupling constants related to the polypeptide backbone torsion originating from a variety of heteronuclear 2D and 3D NMR correlation experiments, totalling 124 3J(HN,H), 129 3J(HN,C), 121 3J(HN,C), 128 3J(Ci–1,Hi), 121 3J(Ci–1,Ci), and 122 3J(Ci–1,Ci). Without prior knowledge from either X-ray crystallography or NMR data, such as NOE distance constraints, accurate dihedral angles are specified for 122 non-glycine and non-proline residues out of a total of 147 amino acids. Different models of molecular internal mobility are considered. The Karplus coefficients obtained are applicable to the conformational analysis of torsions in other polypeptides. 相似文献

Summary Simple pseudo-3D modifications to the constant-time HSQC and HCACO experiments are described that allow accurate (±0.5 Hz) measurement of one bond JCH coupling constants in proteins that are uniformly enriched with 13C. An empirical ,-surface is calculated which describes the deviation of 1JCH from its random coil value, using 203 1JCH values measured for residues in the proteins calmodulin, staphylococcal nuclease, and basic pancreatic trypsin inhibitor, for which and are know with good precision from previous X-ray crystallographic studies. Residues in -helical conformation exhibit positive deviations of 4–5 Hz, whereas deviations in -sheet are small and, on average, slightly negative. Data indicate that 1JCH depends primarily on , and that 1JCH may be useful as a qualitative probe for secondary structure. Comparison of 1JCH coupling constants measured in free calmodulin and in its complex with a 26-aminoacid peptide fragment of myosin light-chain kinase confirm that the calmodulin secondary structure is retained upon complexation but that disruption of the middle part of the central helix is even more extensive than in free calmodulin.

The relationship between I and II under these circumstances remains predominantly linear. Under non-photorespiratory conditions, leaves with a low rate of photosynthesis due to sink limitation exhibit a non-linear relationship between I and II, though the relationship between I and II remains linear suggesting a close relationship between linear electron flow and CO2 fixation. Leaves irradiated at the CO2 compensation point also exhibit a non-linear relationship between I and II. These results suggest that for leaves in air linear electron flow is the predominant source of energy for metabolism. The role of cyclic electron transport is considered when the requirement for the products of linear electron transport is depressed.Abbreviations qp

Summary In many oceanic hyperiid amphipods the eyes are double structures, with a specialized upward-pointing region covering a narrow field of view. Inter-ommatidial angles were measured across the eyes of 10 species from different depth ranges. With increasing depth (decreasing light) there is a trend towards greater dorso-ventral asymmetry resulting in the separation of the two retinae and an increase in the size of the upper eye. The diameters (D) of the dorsal ommatidia increase with depth, and the inter-ommatidial angles () decrease. There are no corresponding changes in the lower eyes. These features can be explained on the assumption that the upper eyes are used to detect small opaque targets against the downwelling light from the surface. In contrast to the resolution of grating-like targets, where the productD should increase as light intensity decreases (the eye-parameter; Snyder 1979), the detection of single targets requires that the ratioD/ should increase in dim light. Amongst hyperiids this ratio does indeed show a 50-fold increase from surface-to deep-living species, whereas the eye-parameter hardly changes. 相似文献

The TROSY principle has been introduced into a HNCA experiment, which is designed for measurements of the intraresidual and sequential H-C/HN-N dipole/dipole and H-C/N dipole/CSA cross-correlated relaxation rates. In addition, the new experiment provides values of the 3,4
J
H HN coupling constants measured in an E.COSY manner. The conformational restraints for the and angles are obtained through the use of the cross-correlated relaxation rates together with the Karplus-type dependencies of the coupling constants. Improved signal-to-noise is achieved through preservation of all coherence transfer pathways and application of the TROSY principle. The application of the [15N,13C]-DQ/ZQ-[15N,1H]-TROSY-E.COSY experiment to the 16 kDa apo-form of the E. coli Heme Chaperon protein CcmE is described. Overall good agreement is achieved between and angles measured with the new experiment and the average values determined from an ensemble of 20 NMR conformers. 相似文献

Two sets of sufficient conditions are given for convergence to stationary distributions, for some general models of two species competing in a randomly varying environment. The models are nonlinear stochastic difference equations which define Markov chains. One set of sufficient conditions involves strong continuity and -irreducibility of the transition probability for the chain. The second set has a much weaker irreducibility condition, but is only applicable to monotonic models. The results are applied to a stochastic two-species Ricker model, and to Chesson's lottery model with vacant space, to illustrate how the assumptions can be checked in specific models. 相似文献

Summary Two-hexameric (2×6) hemocyanins from the brachyuran crabsCancer pagurus andCallinectes sapidus, the freshwater crayfishAstacus leptodactylus and the lobsterHomarus americanus were isolated and dissociated into native subunits.The subunits of each hemocyanin were analyzed by electrophoresis and immunology. Three immunologically distinct subunit types, which were termed, and, could be identified in each case. They were isolated preparatively, and interspecifically correlated. Subunit is subdivided into several electrophoretically distinct isoforms which are immunologically closely related (Astacus) or identical (other species). InAstacus andCancer one of these isoforms was shown to dimerize and to act as inter-hexamer bridge. It represents a fourth subunit type termed. A fifth, diffuse component, which in PAGE migrated at the position of a dimer, was identified in the crossed immunoelectrophoretic patterns as denatured hemocyanin.A common feature of the four hemocyanins is the presence of 4 copies of and 8 copies of/ within the 2×6 particles. The: ratio is 4:4 in the two Astacidea and 6:2 in the two Brachyura. exists in 2 copies inAstacus andCancer which means that a single dimer- is present in a two-hexamer. This leaves 2 monomeric copies inAstacus and 4 inCancer.Every subunit from the four species except ofAstacus
- was capable to form hexamers in reassembly experiments. If subunit combinations were tested, hetero-hexamers were formed preferentially. Two-hexamers were reconstituted only in the presence of all subunit types and the native subunit stoichiometry was required to obtain twohexamers in considerable yields. Factors limiting 2×6 reassembly are discussed.Authentic 2×6 molecules ofAstacus, Homarus andCancer hemocyanin were immunolabeled with subunit-specific antibody fragments (Fab) or IgG molecules, and the resulting immuno complexes were studied in the electron microscope. A topological model of the quaternary structure of decapod 2×6 hemocyanins is derived, showing the position of each copy of the four subunit types. In this model, the inter-hexamer bridge- is surrounded by two and two subunits forming the central core of the dodecamer. Two additional and two additional subunits form the periphery together with one subunit occupying the peripheral short edges of each hexameric half structure. The model is discussed with respect to the current literature.Abbreviations

Experiments with batch suspensions, recirculating columns and flow-through columns have been carried out involving a sandy soil and five bacteriophages: MS2, PRD1, X174, Q and PM2. In batch and recirculating column experiments, attachment and detachment rate coefficients were determined by fitting a two-parameter (attachment and detachment) model. In general, attachment and detachment rate coefficients were not found to be significantly different between the two kinds of experiments. There was one exception, however: MS2 appeared to detach faster in the presence of strong advective flow. In the case of flow-through column experiments, it is shown that a two-site model, with adsorption to equilibrium and kinetic sites, fits the breakthrough curves of all the phages, except PM2, satisfactorily. A one-site kinetic model was found to be appropriate for phage PM2. A small proportion of bacteriophages MS2, PRD1, and Q adsorbed to equilibrium sites, whereas a large proportion of X174 adsorbed to equilibrium sites. Such a distinction between adsorption to equilibrium and kinetic sites cannot be made in the case of batch or recirculating column experiments. Kinetic attachment rate coefficients were found to be significantly higher for the bacteriophages with presumably stronger negative charge. This may be ascribed to the presence of multivalent cations. Under these conditions, bacteriophage X174 appears to behave more conservatively than more negatively charged viruses, and may then be a better choice as a relatively conservative tracer for virus transport through the subsurface. 相似文献

Summary Treatment of long-term tissue cultures of carrots and of adventive embryos in these cultures with Cellulase Onozuka P 1500 and with this enzyme + Macerocym resulted in high yields of protoplasts which could be cultivated over prolonged periods (up to 5 months) in a synthetic medium + 0.6 m sorbitol. During cultivation the size of the protoplasts increased considerably ( up to 10 times) and a high percentage of multinucleate (between 2 and 13 nuclei) protoplasts were formed. However no fusion and no regeneration of cell walls were observed. 相似文献
