一氧化氮在乙烯诱导蚕豆气孔关闭中的作用

以蚕豆为材料研究了一氧化氮(nitric oxide,NO)和乙烯对气孔运动的影响。结果表明,10μmol/L的NO供体硝普钠(sodium nitroprusside,SNP)以及0.04%的乙烯能明显诱导蚕豆气孔关闭,并且二者共同处理后,能够增强其促进气孔关闭的作用。乙烯合成抑制剂AVG可以减弱NO诱导气孔关闭的程度,NO清除剂c-PTIO和NR抑制剂NaN3也可减弱乙烯诱导气孔关闭的程度,而一氧化氮合酶(nitric oxide synthase,NOS)抑制剂L-NAME对乙烯诱导气孔关闭的作用不明显。推测,在调控蚕豆气孔关闭过程中,NO可能主要通过NR途径参与乙烯调控气孔关闭过程。     

茉莉酸和脱落酸调控蚕豆气孔运动作用的比较（简报）

一定浓度范围内的茉莉酸和脱落酸都可诱导气孔关闭,脱落酸诱导气孔关闭有明显的浓度效应,在0．1－100umol.l^-1范围内,作用效果随着脱落酸浓度升高而增强,但作用的时间效应不明显,茉莉酸则有明显的时间效应,在3h内,其作用效应随着时间的延长而增强,MES缓冲对茉莉酸的恢复作用与脱落酸不同,茉莉酸和脱薄酸调控蚕豆气孔运动有一定的协同效应。     

乙烯对UV-B辐射诱导蚕豆气孔关闭的调控效应(英文)

UV-B辐射作为一种重要的环境信号影响着植物的生长与发育,它能够调控气孔运动和诱导乙烯产生.该试验利用乙烯生物合成抑制剂和乙烯受体抑制剂处理蚕豆叶片表皮条,结合气孔开度分析和乙烯释放量测定,研究乙烯在UV-B辐射调控表皮条气孔运动中的作用.结果发现,将蚕豆叶片表皮条置于0.8 W·m-2的UV-B辐射下1～4 h,乙烯生成和气孔关闭均被显著诱导,且乙烯释放峰先于气孔关闭的起始;乙烯生物合成抑制剂和乙烯受体抑制剂处理均能显著逆转UV-B辐射诱导的气孔关闭;外源乙烯处理也能模拟UV-B辐射的效应诱导可见光下蚕豆表皮条的气孔关闭.可见,乙烯介导了UV-B辐射诱导的蚕豆气孔关闭.     

伤害及诱导子对喜树幼苗中喜树碱含量的影响

通过伤害处理和外施诱导子——水杨酸(SA)、茉莉酸甲酯(MeJa)和乙烯利(Ethrel)以及伤害和诱导子复合处理,研究不同处理对喜树中喜树碱(camptothein,CPT)含量的影响。结果表明:(1)4种单独诱导处理均能在一定程度上增强喜树碱的合成,其中水杨酸处理和机械伤害诱导效果最明显,较对照组的喜树碱含量分别提高了47.7%和27.2%,而机械伤害和诱导子复合处理均产生拮抗作用,喜树碱含量降低;(2)诱导作用受诱导剂浓度的影响,SA、MeJa和Ethrel的适宜质量浓度分别为50~100 mg.L-1、5~10 mg.L-1和5~10 mg.L-1。     

咖啡酸和氯化钴对茉莉酸甲酯诱导抗病相关酶活性的影响

烟草愈伤组织在含咖啡酸（5 mmol/L）和/或CoCl2(10 mmol/L,乙烯合成抑制剂)的MS培养基上暗培养,同时用茉莉酸甲酯（1 mg/ml,简称MJ）处理愈伤组织。处理后测定乙烯、水杨酸和病程相关蛋白（PR）含量及一些抗病相关酶活性。MJ明显促进乙烯产生、增加水杨酸和PR蛋白含量,提高苯丙氨酸解氨酶（PAL）、β1,3-葡聚糖苷酶和几丁酶的活性。咖啡酸降低MJ对乙烯和水杨酸诱导,CoCl2明显降低MJ对乙烯的诱导,但没有明显影响MJ对水杨酸的诱导,两者都促进MJ诱导PAL活性而抑制MJ诱导β1,3-葡聚糖苷酶活性。咖啡酸明显影响MJ诱导内切几丁酶,几乎完全抑制对外切几丁酶的诱导;CoCl2对MJ诱导内切几丁酶没有影响,促进对外切几丁酶的诱导。实验结果表明,不同的抗病相关酶活性诱导有不同的信号传递途径,在所测几种酶的诱导中,水杨酸起主要作用,乙烯作用较小,MJ的诱导作用主要是由水杨酸所转导。     

拟南芥保卫细胞中茉莉酸甲酯诱导的H2O2产生与MAPK信号转导体系的可能关系

蛋白激酶MEK1/2的专一抑制剂PD98059可抑制茉莉酸甲酯(MeJA)诱导的拟南芥保卫细胞中H2O2的产生和气孔的关闭.MeJA和H2O2诱导气孔关闭后,再用PD98059处理,可使关闭的气孔重新开放,同样,外源PD98059处理,能使MeJA诱导增强的H2O2探针的荧光强度降低.此结果表明,类属于MAPKK的蛋白激酶MEK1/2参与了MeJA诱导的拟南芥气孔关闭的信号转导过程,其作用机制可能是通过调节MeJA诱导保卫细胞产生和积累H2O2而起作用.     

H2S位于H2O2下游参与乙烯诱导拟南芥气孔关闭过程

H2O2和H2S是植物体内重要的信号分子,二者均参与乙烯诱导的拟南芥气孔关闭过程。以拟南芥野生型及其突变体为材料研究了H2O2和H2S在乙烯诱导拟南芥气孔关闭过程中的相互关系。结果表明,乙烯能够诱导野生型拟南芥叶片H2S含量及L-/D-半胱氨酸脱巯基酶(L-/D-CDes)活性显著增加,促进气孔关闭,但对H2O2合成突变体AtrbohD、AtrbohF、Atpao2和Atpao4植株叶片无显著作用;乙烯亦可引起H2S合成突变体Atl-cdes和Atd-cdes气孔保卫细胞H2O2水平的显著增加,但对其气孔运动没有显著作用。此外,H2O2清除剂和合成抑制剂均能抑制乙烯诱导的拟南芥叶片H2S含量和L-/D-CDes活性的增加及气孔开度的减小;而H2S清除剂和合成抑制剂虽能抑制乙烯诱导的气孔关闭,却不能改变乙烯对拟南芥叶片气孔保卫细胞H2O2的作用效应。由此表明H2S位于H2O2下游介导乙烯诱导拟南芥气孔关闭过程。

渗透胁迫及信号处理对海南粗榧叶绿素荧光特性的影响

为了探究甘露醇、氯化钠的渗透胁迫和脱落酸、茉莉酸甲酯、乙烯利、水杨酸等信号物质对海南粗榧(Cephalotaxus hainanensis)叶片叶绿素荧光特性的影响,本研究以海南粗榧新鲜叶片为试材,分别选用甘露醇、氯化钠、脱落酸、茉莉酸甲酯、乙烯利、水杨酸处理海南粗榧叶片,测定PSⅡ实际量子产量Y(Ⅱ)、非光化学淬灭系数(NvPQ)、光化学淬灭系数(qP)等叶绿素荧光参数.结果表明:甘露醇处理和氯化钠处理在短时间内可以造成这些参数的波动,然而在24 h后,这些参数趋于平稳,大多数可以恢复到对照水平,但渗透胁迫处理后的Y(Ⅱ)值显著降低,NPQ值却显著升高.在脱落酸、茉莉酸甲酯、乙烯利、水杨酸等信号物质处理后,叶绿素荧光参数多呈现出和甘露醇处理或氯化钠处理相似的趋势,表明了渗透胁迫可能通过不同的信号转导通路影响叶绿素荧光特性,其中水杨酸信号通路可能参与了叶片实际光能转换效率适应调节.

Regulation of Salicylic Acid and N-Hydroxy-Pipecolic Acid in Systemic Acquired Resistance

In plants, salicylic acid (SA) is a central immune signal that is involved in both local and systemic acquired resistance (SAR). In addition to SA, several other chemical signals are also involved in SAR and these include N-hydroxy-pipecolic acid (NHP), a newly discovered plant metabolite that plays a crucial role in SAR. Recent discoveries have led to a better understanding of the biosynthesis of SA and NHP and their signaling during plant defense responses. Here, I review the recent progress in role of SA and NHP in SAR. In addition, I discuss how these signals cooperate with other SAR-inducing chemicals to regulate SAR.

Purification and Characterization of the Heat-Stable Factors Essential for the Conversion of Lignoceric Acid to Cerebronic Acid and Glutamic Acid: Identification of N-Acetyl-l-Aspartic Acid

Abstract: The conversion of lignoceric acid to cerebronic acid, ceramides, cerebrosides, and glutamic acid is catalyzed by a rat brain particulate preparation. The heat-stable factor, prepared from calf cerebellum, together with the heat-labile factor, a pyridine nucleotide, and Mg²⁺ are essential to all of these metabolic pathways. Our previous work showed that the heat-stable factor is composed of at least two components, HSF-1 and HSF-2, and identified HSF-2 as d -glucose-6-phosphate. In the current investigation, HSF-1 was further purified and found to be N -acetyl- l -aspartic acid. In addition, it was discovered that a third component, HSF-3, is also required for heat-stable factor activity. A reconstituted system composed of N -acetylaspartic acid, glucose-6-phosphate, and HSF-3 fully replaced the heat-stable factor essential for the conversion of lignoceric acid to cerebronic acid and glutamic acid. The reconstituted heat-stable factor did not show the initial time lag always observed with the crude heat-stable factor.     

Blood-Brain Barrier Produces Significant Efflux of L-Aspartic Acid but Not D-Aspartic Acid

The brain efflux index method has been used to clarify the mechanism of efflux transport of acidic amino acids such as L-aspartic acid (L-Asp), L-glutamic acid (L-Glu), and D-aspartic acid (D-Asp) across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). About 85% of L-[3H]Asp and 40% of L-[3H]Glu was eliminated from the ipsilateral cerebrum within, respectively, 10 and 20 min of microinjection into the brain. The efflux rate constant of L-[3H]Asp and L-[3H]Glu was 0.207 and 0.0346 min(-1), respectively. However, D-[3H]Asp was not eliminated from brain over a 20-min period. The efflux of L-[3H]Asp and L-[3H]Glu was inhibited in the presence of excess unlabeled L-Asp and L-Glu, whereas D-Asp did not inhibit either form of efflux transport. Aspartic acid efflux across the BBB appears to be stereospecific. Using a combination of TLC and the bioimaging analysis, attempts were made to detect the metabolites of L-[3H]Asp and L-[3H]Glu in the ipsilateral cerebrum and jugular vein plasma following a microinjection into parietal cortex, area 2. Significant amounts of intact L-[3H]Asp and L-[3H]Glu were found in all samples examined, including jugular vein plasma, providing direct evidence that at least a part of the L-Asp and L-Glu in the brain interstitial fluid is transported across the BBB in the intact form. To compare the transport of acidic amino acids using brain parenchymal cells, brain slice uptake studies were performed. Although the slice-to-medium ratio of D-[3H]Asp was the highest, followed by L-[3H]Glu and L-[3H]Asp, the initial uptake rate did not differ for both L-[3H]Asp and D-[3H]Asp, suggesting that the uptake of aspartic acid in brain parenchymal cells is not stereospecific. These results provide evidence that the BBB may act as an efflux pump for L-Asp and L-Glu to reduce the brain interstitial fluid concentration and act as a static wall for D-Asp.

Amino Acid Neurotransmitters in the CNS: Properties of Diaminobutyric Acid Transport

Uptake of L-2,4-diaminobutyric acid (DABA), a positively charged analogue of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), by a synaptosomal fraction isolated from rat brain occurred with a Km of 54 +/- 12 microM and a Vmax of 1.3 +/- 0.2 nmol/min/mg protein. The transport of DABA was inhibited competitively by GABA whereas that of GABA was affected in the same manner by addition of DABA. The maximal accumulation of DABA ([DABA]i/[DABA]c) was observed to increase as the second power of the transmembrane electrical potential ([K+]i/[K+]e) and the first power of the sodium ion concentration gradient. These findings indicate that DABA is transported on the GABA carrier with a net charge of +2, where one charge is provided by the cotransported Na+ and the second is contributed by the amino acid itself. Since uptake of GABA, an electroneutral molecule, is accompanied by transfer of two sodium ions, the results obtained with DABA suggest that one of the sodium binding sites on the GABA transporter is in proximity to the amino acid binding site.     

Sulfur Amino Acid Metabolism in the Developing Rhesus Monkey Brain: Subcellular Studies of Taurine, Cysteinesulfinic Acid Decarboxylase, γ-Aminobutyric Acid, and Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase

Abstract: Taurine, cysteinesulfinic acid decarboxylase (CSAD), glutamate, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) were measured in subcellular fractions prepared from occipital lobe of fetal and neonatal rhesus monkeys. In addition, the distribution of [³⁵S]taurine in subcellular fractions was determined after administration to the fetus via the mother, to the neonate via administration to the mother prior to birth, and directly to the neonate at various times after birth. CSAD, glutamate, GABA, and GAD all were found to be low or unmeasurable in early fetal life and to increase during late fetal and early neonatal life to reach values found in the mother. Taurine was present in large amounts in early fetal life and decreased slowly during neonatal life, arriving at amounts found in the mother not until after 150 days of age. Significant amounts of taurine, CSAD, GABA, and GAD were associated with nerve ending components with some indication that the proportion of brain taurine found in these organelles increases during development. All subcellular pools of taurine were rapidly labeled by exogenously administered [³⁵S]taurine. The subcellular distribution of all the components measured was compatible with the neurotransmitter or putative neuro-transmitter functions of glutamate, GABA, and taurine. The large amount of these three amino acids exceeds that required for such function. The excess of glutamate and GABA may be used as a source of energy. The function of the excess of taurine is still not clear, although circumstantial evidence favors an important role in the development and maturation of the CNS.     

乳酸菌酸胁迫反应机制研究进展

乳酸菌可发酵糖类产生乳酸,并广泛应用于食品、药物和饲料等工业。由于有机酸的积累,乳酸菌大部分的生长代谢都在低pH的酸性环境中进行,具有酸胁迫反应。pH的自我平衡、ATR反应机制、对大分子的保护和修复作用及细胞膜的变化等是乳酸菌酸胁迫反应的主要机制,其中,pH自我平衡包括F0F1-ATPase质子泵、精氨酸脱氨酶途径(ADI)和谷氨酸脱羧酶途径(GAD)等。由此可见,乳酸菌酸胁迫反应机制涉及到基因和蛋白的表达调控等,是非常复杂的网络调控体系。     

Biochemical Studies on Hydrocyanic Acid Potential and Amino Acid in Sorghums

This research is conducted to study the HCN-p of several types of sorghum, as well as their changes in amino acid. The HCN-p of sorghum seedling reached its maximum in 4–6 days after germination. It was found that the first leaf of the seedling has the highest HCN-p. Among the 14 varieties studied, Atlas had the highest HCN-p (1984ppm), whereas NP-22 had the lowest value (479ppm). Light-grown seedlings had higher HCN-p. There was no obvious difference in protein amino acid in sorghum seedlings with .different HCN-p. However, the free amino acid content did vary in the sorghum varieties. The content of free tyrval, pheleu and ileu in etiolated Atlas seedlings was significantly higher than that in NP-22 seedlings. However, under condition of light, the five free amino acids lowers significantly in content in Atlas when compared be NP-22. This proves that Atlas had a more sensitive enzyme system and under presence of light, its free amino acid content was rapidly converted to cyanide.
