Electroencephalographic (EEG) examination of healthy children within the ages of one to seven years was conducted to determine the basic EEG characteristics of maturation of the brain bioelectric activity. It was found that the index and frequency of the activity, the average range of the rhythm assimilation reaction, and the expression of area-specific differences in the -rhythm and activation response are characterized by an increasing pattern of age-related changes in healthy children 1–7 years old. On the other hand, the index of the -rhythm showed a decreasing pattern of age-related changes as did the maximum (5–8) number of correlation relationships between these EEG measures.  相似文献

The EEG correlates of the performance of examination tests and special cognitive tests under the conditions of everyday study (common studying conditions, CSCs) and immediately before examination (examination conditions, ECs) were analyzed in 39 male students aged 18–20 years. The results of the examinations strongly correlated with the relative spectral power (SP) of the EEG rhythm before the examination. Therefore, the students were divided into two groups with different directions of changes in the -range SP under the ECs compared to the CSCs. Students from group 1 were characterized by increased relative - and -rhythm SPs under the ECs and a good examination performance; students of group 2, by decreased - and -rhythm SPs, an increased index of the EEG of the central and frontal cortical regions under the ECs, and a poor examination performance.  相似文献

Summary Amino acids are activated by reaction with adenosine 5-phosphorimidazolide in aqueous imidazole buffers. If adenosine 5-(O-methylphosphate), an analogue of the 3-terminus of t-RNA is present, 2(3)-O-aminoacyladenosine 5-(O-methylphosphate) is formed. Fifteen percent of this compound accumulated at pH 5.8, but less was formed at higher pHs. The highest efficiency of utilization of ImpA attained in our experiments was about 24%. Analogous reactions occured with several other amino acids, including a number that have functional side-chains.Abbreviations pA adenosine 5-monophosphate - MepA adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) - ImpA adenosine-5-phosphorimidazolide - A adenosine - MepA-ala 2(3)-O-alanyl-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) - ala-N-pA adenylyl-(5 N)-alanine - ImH imidazole - DKP diketopiperazine  相似文献

Interploid sexual hybridizations were completed in 2001 and 2002 between seven lemon (Citrus limon(L.) Burm. f.) varieties, Key lime (C. aurantifolia (Cristm.) Swing), Palestine sweet lime (C. imettioides Tan.), Lakeland limequat (C. aurantifolia x Fortunella japonica (Thumb.) Swing.), and Etrog citron (C. medica L.) as diploid progenitors and four allotetraploid somatic hybrids (Key lime + Valencia orange, Hamlin orange + Femminello lemon, Valencia orange + Rough lemon, and Valencia orange+ Femminello lemon) in efforts to generate improved seedless triploid acid fruit hybrids. Efficient recovery of triploid progeny from such crosses requires embryo rescue to avoid embryo abortion due to endosperm failure. Germination of rescued genetically diverse immature embryos was induced on two culture media (EME and Gamborgs B5), with two sucrose concentrations (50 or 70 g l–1). All media contained 0.5 g l–1 malt extract and 4.50 M GA3. Germination of globular, heart and torpedo shaped embryos (defined as small embryos) was significantly (p < 0.05) affected by medium and genotype. Gamborgs medium induced 82.89% germination. Of germinated embryos, 11–65% developed into normal plants with differences among crosses. Cotyledonary embryos (defined as immature embryos with fully developed cotyledons) germinated and developed into normal plants at higher rates than less-developed embryos. In efforts to improve the efficiency of plant recovery, small embryos from Todo el año × HF and Lisbon × HF crosses conducted during 2002 were rescued and cultured on three media (MS, Gamborgs, and RMA) for comparison. Media did not significantly affect the proportion of normal plant recovery.  相似文献

Clones of three cultivars of Medicago sativa (Rambler, Regen S and Rangelander) were used as sources of mesophyll protoplasts. Although all three clones readily produced protoplasts, the subsequent development patterns in culture varied greatly among genotypes, with protoplasts from Regen S and Rambler forming calli which could be induced to form embryos, and protoplasts from Rangelander undergoing direct embryogenesis. Protoplasts of Regen S exhibited high rates of division while those of Rangelander tended to aggregate with only a few cells per aggregate surviving. The surviving cells gave rise to proembryos within the aggregates; these proembryos developed into differentiated embryos after 5–7 weeks of culture. Based on the initial protoplast population, the efficiency of embryo formation averaged 0.13% and ranged from 0.001–0.4%. Observations during the early stages of culture indicated that cell aggregation was a prerequisite for direct embryogenesis.  相似文献

Structural analogues of the NADP+ were studied as potential coenzymes and inhibitors for NADP+ dependent malic enzyme from Zea mays L. leaves. Results showed that 1, N6-etheno-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate ( NADP+), 3-acetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (APADP+), nicotinamide-hypoxanthine dinucleotide phosphate (NHDP+) and -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2: 3-cyclic monophosphate (23NADPc+) act as alternate coenzymes for the enzyme and that there is little variation in the values of the Michaelis constants and only a threefold variation in Vmax for the five nucleotides. On the other hand, thionicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (SNADP+), 3-aminopyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (AADP+), adenosine 2-monophosphate (2AMP) and adenosine 2: 3-cyclic monophosphate (23AMPc) were competitive inhibitors with respect to NADP+, while -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 3-phosphate (3NADP+), NAD+, adenosine 3-monophosphate (3AMP), adenosine 2: 5-cyclic monophosphate (25AMPc), 5AMP, 5ADP, 5ATP and adenosine act as non-competitive inhibitors. These results, together with results of semiempirical self-consistent field-molecular orbitals calculations, suggest that the 2-phosphate group is crucial for the nucleotide binding to the enzyme, whereas the charge density on the C4 atom of the pyridine ring is the major factor that governs the coenzyme activity.Abbreviations NADP+ 1, N6-etheno-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate - NHDP+ nicotinamide-hypoxanthine dinucleotide phosphate - APADP+ 3-acetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate - SNADP+ thionicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate - AADP+ 3-aminopyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate - 23NADPc+ -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2: 3-cyclic monophosphate - 3NADP+ -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 3-phosphate - 2AMP adenosine 2-monophosphate - 3AMP adenosine 3-monophosphate - 23AMPc adenosine 2: 3 monophosphate cyclic - A adenosine - RuBP ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate - SCF-MO Self-Consistent Field-Molecular Orbitals (method)  相似文献

Summary In this first article on the carotenoids of Myxobacterales we report on the minor carotenoids of Stigmatella aurantiaca: phytoene, phytofluene, lycopene, -carotene, 4-keto--carotene, 1,2-dihydro-1-hydroxy--carotene, 4-keto-1,2-dihydro-1-hydroxy--carotene, 4-keto-1,2-dihydro-1-hydroxy-torulene, and 1,2,1,2-tetrahydro-1,1-dihydroxy-lycopene. These pigments account for about 10% of total carotenoids.  相似文献

The study of a series of EEG indices in endogenous depressive disorders and their changes after pharmacotherapy was conducted. The EEG changes in depressed patients versus healthy individuals were found to be characterized by a significant increase in the relative power of the - and -activity and a decrease in the - and -activity, as well as by a decrease in the regional differences between the anterior and posterior divisions of the brain and an increase in the activity of the right hemisphere in relation to the left hemisphere. The use of amitriptyline, fluoxetine, and moclobemide contributed to the improvement in the mental state, which was accompanied by an increase in the EEG amplitude, a decrease in the relative power of the - and -activity, and an increase in the -rhythm power; however, on discharge, the patients retained deviations from a number of values compared to healthy subjects.  相似文献

Clinical and EEG spectral analysis was carried out in 14 pregnant women (five women at risk of preterm labor and four with miscarriage). It was shown that the baseline EEG pattern of women with the persistent threat of preterm labor was characterized by the high spectral power of the -rhythm and its predisposition to hypersynchronization. In the miscarriage group, virtually a complete absence of the -rhythm and the predominance of generalized both high-frequency and slow low-amplitude rhythms are noted in most pregnant women. The data obtained allow a risk group characterized by either a hypersynchronous unstable -rhythm or its absence to be identified among pregnant women.  相似文献

UDP-GlcNAc: Man3R 2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (GlcNAc-T I; EC 2.4.1.101) is the key enzyme in the synthesis of complex and hybrid N-glycans. Rat liver GlcNAc-T I has been purified more than 25,000-fold (M r 42,000). TheV max for the pure enzyme with [Man6(Man3)Man6](Man3)Man4GlcNAc4GlcNAc-Asn as substrate was 4.6 µmol min–1 mg–1. Structural analysis of the enzyme product by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy proved that the enzyme adds anN-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residue in 1–2 linkage to the Man3Man-terminus of the substrate. Several derivatives of Man6(Man3)Man-R, a substrate for the enzyme, were synthesized and tested as substrates and inhibitors. An unsubstituted equatorial 4-hydroxyl and an axial 2-hydroxyl on the -linked mannose of Man6(Man3)Man-R are essential for GlcNAc-T I activity. Elimination of the 4-hydroxyl of the 3-linked mannose (Man) of the substrate increases theK M 20-fold. Modifications on the 6-linked mannose or on the core structure affect mainly theK M and to a lesser degree theV max, e.g., substitutions of the Man6 residue at the 2-position by GlcNAc or at the 3- and 6-positions by mannose lower theK M, whereas various other substitutions at the 3-position increase theK M slightly. Man6(Man3)4-O-methyl-Man4GlcNAc was found to be a weak inhibitor of GlcNAc-T I.Abbreviations BSA Bovine serum albumin - Bn benzyl - Fuc, F l-fucose - Gal, G d-galactose - GalNAc, GA N-acetyl-d-galactosamine - Glc d-glucose - GlcNAc, Gn N-acetyl-d-glucosamine - HPLC high performance liquid chromatography - Man, M d-mannose - mco 8-methoxycarbonyl-octyl, (CH2)8 COOOCH3 - Me methyl - MES 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonate - NMR nuclear magnetic resonance - PMSF phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride - pnp p-nitrophenyl - SDS sodium dodecyl sulfate - T transferase - Tal d-talose - Xyl d-xylose; - {0, 2 + F} Man6 (GlcNAc2Man3) Man4GlcNAc4 (Fuc6) GlcNAc - {2, 2} GlcNAc2Man6 (GlcNAc2Man3) Man4GlcNAc4GlcNAc; M5-glycopeptide, Man6 (Man3) Man6 (Man3) Man4 GlcNAc4GlcNAc-Asn Enzymes: GlcNAc-transferase I, EC 2.4.1.101; GlcNAc-transferase II, EC 2.4.1.143; GlcNAc-transferase III, EC 2.4.1.144; GlcNAc-transferase IV, EC 2.4.1.145; GlcNAc-transferase V, UDP-GlcNAc: GlcNAc2 Man6-R (GlcNAc to Man) 6-GlcNAc-transferase; GlcNAc-transferase VI, UDP-GlcNAc: GlcNAc6(GlcNAc2) Man6-R (GlcNAc to Man) 4-GlcNAc-transferase; Core 1 3-Gal-transferase, EC 2.4.1.122; 4-Gal-transferase, EC 2.4.1.38; 3-Gal-transferase, UDP-Gal: GlcNAc-R 3-Gal-transferase; blood group i 3-GlcNAc-transferase, EC 2.4.1.149; blood group I 6-GlcNAc-transferase, UDP-GlcNAc: GlcNAc3Gal-R (GlcNAc to Gal) 6-GlcNAc-transferase.  相似文献

Ergosteryl acetate was converted through three stages into 3-acetoxy-24-methyl-5-cholesta-8(14),22-diene-15-one in 32% overall yield. The product was transformed to 3-hydroxy-24-methyl-5-cholesta-8(14),22-diene-15-one, 3-hydroxy-24-methyl-5-cholesta-8(14),22-diene-15-one, and 24-methyl-5-cholesta-8(14),22-diene-3,15-dione. The compounds were characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectra.  相似文献

The relationships between the parameters of oxygen content in the body (hemoglobin saturation with oxygen and trancutaneous oxygen tension), central hemodynamics (cardiac output), and cerebral hemodynamics (cerebral blood flow rate) were studied during a hypoxic test (inhalation of an oxygen–nitrogen mixture containing 8% oxygen for 15 min). Special attention was paid to the relationships between the dynamics of cerebral blood flow and cerebral bioelectric activity measured by EEG parameters. It was demonstrated that the trancutaneous oxygen tension decreased to a greater extent than the hemoglobin saturation with oxygen and the cerebral blood flow increased to a greater extent than the cardiac output. The increase in cerebral blood flow and the increase in the indices and power of and EEG waves in the course of hypoxia were strongly positively correlated with each other in most subjects. However, if these parameters were considered in the series of subjects, the degree of the increase in the indices and power of and waves in different subjects was negatively correlated with the increase in the cerebral blood flow. The results are explained in terms of redistribution of blood flow in the body to provide a better oxygen supply to the brain and optimization of the ratios between the cerebral oxygen consumption and the functional load on the system of oxygen supply.  相似文献

Numerous barley cultivars from around the world have been identified as potential sources of Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance genes. All of these cultivars exhibit partial resistance, and several mapping studies have shown that resistance to FHB is controlled by multiple genes. Successful development of barley cultivars with high levels of FHB resistance will require combining genes from multiple sources. We characterized five potential new sources of FHB resistance (AC Oxbow, Atahualpa, HOR211, PFC88209, and Zhedar#1) to determine if they contain new FHB resistance genes. Cluster analysis, using a set of 80 SSR markers distributed throughout the genome, showed that most of the new sources of resistance were not similar to three cultivars that have been used in previous FHB mapping studies (Chevron, Frederickson, and Gobernadora), with Atahualpa and HOR211 being the most dissimilar. By selective genotyping, we determined whether markers linked to six known FHB resistance quantitative trait loci (QTLs), discovered in other genotypes, explained variation for resistance in advanced breeding populations created from the new sources of resistance. Markers linked to four of the six known QTLs were associated with FHB severity in at least one of the populations. However, none of the six QTL regions were associated with variation for FHB severity in populations derived from crosses that utilized sources of resistance HOR211 or PFC88209. Selective genotyping is an efficient method for breeders to utilize current QTL information about disease resistance to search for new resistance genes.  相似文献

Summary Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in the basal-lateral segment of plasma membranes from proximal tubule cells of the rabbit renal cortex was studied and compared to that in the brush border segment of the plasma membrane. Both adenosine 3,5-monophosphate and guanosine 3,5-monophosphate were hydrolyzed by the basal-lateral membrane, but activity varied differently with the two substrates in a complex concentration-dependent manner. Activity with adenosine 3,5-monophosphate was greater than, equal to, or less than with guanosine 3,5-monophosphate, at concentrations of 1000, 100, and 10 to 1 m, respectively. Basal-lateral membrane phosphodiesterase activities at 1 and 500 m substrate exhibited differential responses to pH, metals, heat, and a heat stable inhibitor. Stimulation by guanosine 3,5-monophosphate and inosine 3,5-monophosphate of adenosine 3,5-monophosphate hydrolysis was found in basal-lateral but not in brush border membranes. This stimulation was potentiated by ethyleneglycol-bis(-aminoethyl ether)N,N-tetraacetic acid and ethylenediaminetetraacetate, inhibited by Triton X-100, and totally blocked by Zn2+. The findings indicate that multiple forms of phosphodiesterase are present in the basal-lateral segment and these differ from the activities in the brush border region of the plasma membrane. The characteristics of (i) allosteric, guanosine 3,5-monophosphate-sensitivity of adensoine 3,5-monophosphate phosphodiesterase, and (ii) relatively high guanosine 3,5-monophosphate phosphodiesterase activity, in basal-lateral membranes, which are also enriched in adenylate and guanylate cyclase, suggest an important physiological role for these phosphodiesterases in the regulation of net production of cyclic nucleotides in the renal cortex.  相似文献

Molecular cloning of human, mouse and rat brain CaM-stimulated phosphatase has suggested the existence of two genes for the subunit of the enzymes. A and A fragments of A and A from rat brain library have been expressed in bacteria to produce specific anti-calcineurin A and anti-calcineurin A antibodies (Kunoet al., J Neurochem 58: 1643–1651, 1992). Alternative mRNA splicing gives rise to additional calcineurin isozymes with some containing an insertion sequence of ATVEAIEADE. Antibody against synthetic peptide of this insertion sequence has been raised in this study. Three CaM-stimulated phosphatase isozymes previously purified from bovine brain (BPI, BPII, BPIII) (Yokoyama & Wang, J Biol Chem 266: 14822–14829, 1991), along with the bacterially expressed rat A and A fragments, were analyzed by two calcineurin subunit monoclonal antibodies VJ6 and VD3, the rat anti-calcineurin A and anti-calcineurin A specific polyclonal antibodies, and the insertion peptide antibody. The bovine brain CaM-stimulated phosphatase isozymes BPI and BPIII reacted with both anti-calcineurin A and anti-calcineurin A antibodies. While BPII reacted with anti-calcineurin A but not anti-calcineurin A antibody, it differed from the expressed A fragment in immunoreactivity towards the monoclonal antibodies. The results show that the bovine brain CaM-stimulated phosphatase isozymes cannot be simply categorized as derived from A or A genes products. On the other hand, on the basis of immunoreactivity toward the insertion antibody, the isozymes can be readily classified into those containing the insertion sequence (BPI, LPI) and those without the inserting (BPII, BPIII, LPII, LPIII).Abbreviations CaM calmodulin - SDS sodium dodecyl sulfate - BP brain peak - LP lung peak - PAGE polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis - EGTA [ethylenebis(oxyethylenenitrilo)]-tetra acetic acid - cDNA complementary DNA - mAb monoclonal antibody - NBT nitro blue tetrazolium chloride - BCIP 5-bromo 4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate  相似文献

In Fuji, the production of ethylene was increased with the addition of AgNO3 and inhibited with the addition of 10 M aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG). The addition of 80 M AgNO3 to transformed explants of Fuji cultured on selection medium resulted in increased ethylene production (20 l l–1) at 3 weeks. Under examining the effect of AgNO3 in Fuji, the 40 M AgNO3 showed with higher 33.8% and 6.5% in the efficiency of regeneration and transformation. However, ethylene production in Gala explants treated with 10M AgNO3 (3 l l–1) decreased after 2 weeks compared with the control (5 l l–1). Although the regeneration efficiency of Gala with 10 M AgNO3 was higher (41.1%) than the control (20.1%), there was no significant difference in the transformation efficiency at the same concentration. Shoot regeneration of Fuji and Gala was completely inhibited with 10 M AVG. These results suggest that the addition of AgNO3 affects the efficiency of Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer in Fuji.Eun Soo Seong, Ill Min Chung- These two Authors Contributed equally to this work  相似文献

The C-terminal domain and tail, which is the most conserved region of the -crystallin/small heat shock protein (HSP) family, was obtained from rat A-crystallin, bovine B-crystallin and mouse HSP25. All three domains have primarily -sheet conformation and less than 10% of -helix, like the proteins from which they are derived. Whereas the C-terminal part of A-crystallin forms dimers or tetramers, the corresponding regions of B-crystallin and HSP25 form larger aggregates. The heat-protective activity, recently described for the -crystallin/small HSP family, is not retained in the C-terminal domain and tail. In the course of this study some differences with the previously published sequence of HSP25 were observed, and a revision is proposed.Abbreviations A2Dt residues 64–173 of rat -crystallin - B2Dt residues 70–175 of bovine B-crystallin - bp base pair - HSP2Dt residues 92–209 of HSP25 - HSP(s) heat shock protein(s) - HSP25 mouse small HSP - PCR polymerase chain reaction - PMSF phenylmethylsulfonyl chloride - SDS sodium dodecyl sulfate; polyacrylamide - WSF water-soluble fraction  相似文献

Brevibacterium flavum 22LD-P cells were shown to maintain a transmembrane pH gradient (pH) from 0.6 to 1.8–2 units and a transmembrane electric potential difference () from 0 to 200 mV depending on the pH and ionic composition of the incubation medium, grwoth substrate and concentration of cells. decreased from 120–140 mV to 0 when medium pH was lowered from neutral to 5.0–5.5 and increased to 180–200 mV when medium pH was raised to 8–9 in cells utilizing acetate or endogenous substrate. Cells growing on sucrose, kept around 100–120 mV at neutral as well as acidic medium pH. Intracellular pH in the acetate utilizing or endogenously respiring cells was maintained with the range of 8.9 to 5.5 at medium pH ranging from 9.1 to 4.0, respectively. Sucrose grown cells were able to maintain a more stable intracellular pH. Endogenously respiring cells in potassium phosphate buffer at high biomass concentrations maintained larger pH and relatively smaller , than the same cells in diluted suspensions. Cells in sodium phosphate buffer possessed larger and almost no pH, but was still dependent on biomass concentration.The lack of intracellular pH homeostasis and the collapse of at acid medium pH are discussed in the context of cell membrane proton permeability.  相似文献

Summary This paper reports our experience of molecular screening and fetal diagnosis of -thalassemia in 457 at risk couples of Italian descent. Molecular screening was carried out by dot blot analysis on amplified DNA with oligonucleotide probes complementary to the eight most common mutations in Italians [39 (CT); 6 (-A); +-87 (CG); + IVSI nt 110 (GA); IVSI nt 1 (GA); + IVSI nt 6 (TC); IVSII nt 1 (GA); + IVSII nt 745 (CG)]. By using this approach, we have been able to define the mutation in 92.8% of cases. The rest (all but four) were defined by direct sequencing and this led to the detection of nine rare mutations [76 (-C); + IVSI nt 5 (GA); + IVSI nt 5 (GC); + IVSI -1 (cod 30) (GC); +-87 (CT), -290 bp del.; +-101 (CT)], and to the characterization of a novel mutation consisting of the deletion of the G at the invariant AG of the IVSII splice acceptor site of the -globin gene ( IVSII nt 850-1 bp). In the remaining four cases, the -globin gene showed entirely normal sequences and the -globin gene cluster was intact, as indicated by Southern blot analysis. Fetal diagnosis was carried out by dot blot analysis with the oligonucleotide probes defined in the parents. The procedure is simple and reliable, and the results can be obtained within 1 week of sampling. No misdiagnosis has so far occurred. The results indicate that fetal diagnosis of -thalassemia by DNA analysis may be obtained in practically all cases (even in a population showing marked heterogeneity of -thalassemia) by the combination of dot blot analysis for detecting common mutations, and direct sequencing for defining those that are uncommon.  相似文献
