This paper is an attempt to describe and analyze in formal terms a genetic circuit which is rather complex and reasonably well disentangled: the control of immunity in lambdoid bacteriophages. Known models are expressed as logic equations, which relate the stade of activity of genes to variables of three kinds: genetic variables which describe the genotype of the organism, environmental variables like temperature and memorization variables. The value of each memorization variable (presence or absence of a gene product) is related to the value of the corresponding function (operation or not of the gene) by two characteristic time delays, an «establishment delay and a «decay delay.From the equations, one can derive matrices which facilitate comparison between models by showing which stable states are predicted by each model. Implications of current models, which had apparently remained cryptic, have been realized and experimentally tested.From the matrices, one can derive graphs which show the pathways (sequences of states) consistent with each model. These graphs are frequently branched and in these cases one has to analyze which conditions determine that one pathway rather than another one, is followed. 相似文献

Isolated abdomens of crayfish were maintained in vitro and lysine (-3H) was intracellularly injected into one of the giant motoneuron of the ventral cord ganglia by iontophoresis. Membrane potentials ranging between -60 and -70 mV were recorded all along the experiment. Light microscope radioautographs showed an intense reaction over the injected nerve cell body and the initial segment of its axon; most of the surrounding tissues were free of radioactivity when the diffusion of the injected lysine (-3H) was prevented by adding cold lysine to the bathing medium. Some exchange of label was however noted with electrically coupled axons and glial sheaths. No radioactive protein could be traced in the numerous nerve endings of the neuromuscular junction. Nonetheless when a ligature was placed on the nerve root, the amount of accumulated radioactivity was increased from 3 to 6 h. in the axon of the injected motoneuron only. Electron microscope radioautographs indicate that the fast transported proteins were mainly associated with the endoplasmic reticulum and the axonal membrane. It is concluded that the visualization of the nerve endings was limited by the dispersion of the label into the numerous thin terminal branchs of the axon; however the combination of iontophoretic injection and radioautography permits to trace endogenous protein along the axon and to study molecular exchanges with other cells. 相似文献

The EMBO workshop ‘Hedgehog Signalling: from Developmental Biology to Anti‐cancer Drugs’ took place between 27 and 31 March on the beautiful Côte d'Azur. The gathered scientists tackled topics ranging from the mechanisms by which Hedgehog (Hh) is presented to receptive cells, to the distribution of Hh by Glypicans, to the role of cilia in vertebrate Hh signal transduction, and to the function of Hh signals in cancer. 相似文献

Summary The thermostable exotoxin of Bacillus thuringiensis penetrates the egg's chorion of Acheta domesticus between the 30th and the 110th hour of incubation. The curve of the exotoxin penetration measured by the percentage of embryonic mortality is superposed upon the curve of water chorion permeability expressed in terms of time of the embryonic development.

5-Bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR)-induced segmentation and BUdR-induced asymmetry of the chromatids probably reflect a two-stage mechanism. The first stage consists of a BUdR substitution of the thymidine in the DNA during S period. The second stage, less obviously demonstrated, involves either alteration of chromosomal proteins or an imperfect association between substituted DNA and normal or abnormal proteins. This second stage takes place at different times, according to the type of chromatid modification: during S or G 2 period in the case of segmentation, and during G 1 in the case of asymmetry. One important implication of our experimental results is that the appearance of metaphasic chromatids is at least partly determined by the time of the G 1 period.L'induction d'une asymétrie, ou d'une segmentation des chromatides par un traitement au BUdR, résulte probablement d'un mécanisme à deux étapes distinctes. La première consiste en une substitution de la thymidine par le BUdR survenant lors de la replication de l'ADN. La seconde, plus difficile à mettre en évidence, consiste en une modification des protéines chromosomiques, ou en une mauvaise association entre les protéines, modifiées ou non, et l'ADN ayant incorporé le BUdR. Cette seconde étape est nécessairement différente selon la modification chromatidienne induite: elle se déroule en phase S ou G 2, en cas de segmentation, et en phase G 1 surtout, en cas d'asymétrie. Dans l'un et l'autre cas, la modification de l'association ADN-protéines pourrait être en rapport avec la régulation chromosomique. Une déduction importante de nos résultats expérimentaux est que l'aspect des deux chromatides métaphasiques dépend, au moins en partie, de la constitution de l'ADN dès la phase G 1. 相似文献
