对酿酒酵母在添加苹果酸、柠檬酸和琥珀酸的混合培养基与其在YEPD培养基中胞内丙酮酸激酶、葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶、异柠檬酸脱氢酶、苹果酸脱氢酶、乙醇脱氢酶的酶活力差异进行了对比分析。结果表明:添加苹果酸使胞内丙酮酸激酶、异柠檬酸脱氢酶、苹果酸脱氢酶、乙醇脱氢酶的酶活分别下降34.82%、57.23%、39.15%、12.10%;添加柠檬酸使胞内丙酮酸激酶、异柠檬酸脱氢酶、苹果酸脱氢酶的酶活分别下降50.17%、42.20%、48.40%;添加琥珀酸使胞内丙酮酸激酶、葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶、异柠檬酸脱氢酶、苹果酸脱氢酶、乙醇脱氢酶的酶活分别下降34.16%、34.16%、50.87%、50.87%、12.37%。丙酮酸激酶、异柠檬酸脱氢酶和苹果酸脱氢酶对3种有机酸的耐受性较差,葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶、乙醇脱氢酶对3种有机酸的耐受具有选择性。     

氧化磷酸化作用和有关问题的研究 Ⅳ.内源还原烟酰胺核苷酸对琥珀酸氧化的抑制

鼠肝线粒体加入Amytal与异柠檬酸或柠檬酸后琥珀酸的氧化即受到抑制。琥珀酸氧化的抑制不能为DNP、双香豆素或砷酸盐所解除。其它与烟酰胺核苷酸有关的脱氢酶的底物如α-酮戊二酸、苹果酸、丙酮酸、谷氨酸、β-羟基丁酸等与Amytal同时加入时并不引起琥珀酸氧化的抑制。当琥珀酸氧化被Amytal加异柠檬酸抑制后加入维生素K_3或α-酮戊二酸与氯化铵抑制即被解除,说明琥珀酸氧化的抑制可能与异柠檬酸脱氢生成的NADPH有关。在不加ADP与无机磷酸盐的条件下,高浓度的Amytal激活琥珀酸的氧化。但被Amytal激活的琥珀酸的氧化也被异柠檬酸或柠檬酸所抑制。

尿素对热带假丝酵母Candida tropicalis合成长链二元酸途径的调节 Ⅱ.几个关键酶活力的消长

前文已报道尿素及尿素结构类似物对长链二元酸的合成酶系既有抑制作用,也有阻遏作用,从而调节了长链二元酸的合成。本文进一步从离体酶系探索过量尿素对热带假丝酵母在烃类氧化过程中有关三羧酸循环,乙醛酸循环,呼吸链,ω和β氧化等几个关键酶活力的消长关系。实验结果证明,过量尿素(0.2%)以上培养菌体的三羧酸循环三个主要脱氢酶,苹果酸脱氢酶,琥珀酸脱氢酶和异柠檬酸脱氢酶(NADP)的比活力分别为正常尿素(0.1%)培养菌体的5.3、3.0、1.7倍。乙醛酸循环关键酶,异柠檬酸裂解酶和苹果酸合成酶分别为正常尿素培养物的2.6和2.8倍。另一方面当尿素过量时ω-氧化酶系活力极微,而β-氧化酶系活力大大提高,以致长链二元酸难以积累。另外过氧化氢酶活力在过量尿素存在时也有显著提高。而谷氨酸脱氢酶、NADH氧化酶和由NAD连结的异柠檬酸脱氢酶在两种菌体内无明显差别。

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
