鱼类染色体BSG-G显带法

鱼类染色体多重带技术的应用,对鱼类遗传变异、分类进化、基因定位、基因表达与调控等问题的深入研究,显得日益重要。然而,鱼类染色体的多重带显带一直是个尚未过关的技术难题。近年来,许多学者尤其是国内学者在这个领域中进行了很多探索,并已取得一定进展。鉴于鱼类染色体短小,中期染色体螺旋     

鱼类基因组结构研究——Ⅰ.染色体的限制性内切酶显带

本文报道了1种新的鱼类染色体研究方法——限制性内切酶显带技术。我们应用限制性内切酶Bsp631等分别对黄鳝和长春鳊的染色体进行显带处理,结果表明,Bsp631能使这两种鱼的染色体发生稳定的带纹分化:适度的处理产生多重的G-带状带型,而过度的处理则产生特殊的限制性内切酶抗性带型。根据显带结果分析,我们对鱼类染色体限制性内切酶显带的可行性和实用价值进行了讨论。     

BrdU处理的鱼类染色体高分辨G-带带型分析

本文应用鱼类染色体高分辨G-带技术,重点将黄鳝培养细胞具不同长度染色体的正中期分裂相做成G-带核型加以比较分析。随着染色体长度的增加,带纹数目也增加。但增加是有限度的。染色体带纹数目的增加,明显地表现在深染带再分为若干亚带。当染色体从前期向中、后期过渡收缩变短时,一些亚带融合为原来数目的带。染色体上各个带的收缩程度、收缩时间是不均等的。实验证明大剂量的BrdU不仅能阻断鱼类细胞于中S期,也可使染色体伸长、小剂量的伸长作用不明显。最后讨论了BrdU处理与G-显带的关系、染色体带纹数目相对恒定以及染色体伸长缩短问题。     

鱼类染色体G—显带的Brd U—BSG方法及白鲢G—带模式图的初步建立

本文报道了一种显示鱼类染色体G-带的BrdU-BsG方法。采用肾细胞短期培养,收获前12小时加入BrdU,使终浓度为10μg/ml。制片经HCl、Ba(OH)_2处理,4×SSC温育。Giemsa染色,显示出白鲢的G-带。其带纹细致清晰,一个细胞的单倍染色体上显示带纹达200条以上,是目前已报道的鱼类多重带中带纹最多的,且反差明显,带纹有特征性,结果较稳定。根据实验结果初步建立了白鲢的G-带模式图。     

三倍体草鱼染色体限制性内切酶带分析

本文报道运用Ｇｉｅｍｓａ染色、Ｃ－带显带、ＮＯＲ－显带和多种限制性内切酶消化对草鱼三倍体的染色体进行分析。其中,内切酶ＨａｅⅢ和ＨｉｎｄⅢ等使染色体产生Ｇ－带,其余内切酶产生与常规Ｃ－带不同的分化,即所谓修饰Ｃ－带。实验结果表明,限制性内切酶可使鱼类染色体产生多种带型,各种显带技术的结合使用,可探讨鱼类染色体及染色质结构与进化。     

条石鲷雌雄鱼核型及C-带的比较分析

染色体核型和带型分析是鱼类细胞遗传学研究的重要内容之一,不仅对认识鱼类的分类系统、进化关系及染色体演化过程具有重要意义,还可为鱼类遗传育种提供细胞遗传学依据。我国从20世纪70年代开始开展鱼类细胞遗传学方面的研究,到目前为止,有关鱼类染色体核型已有很多报道。在海水鱼类中,据不完全统计,至2006     

黄鳝染色体组中组成型异染色质的分布

自从Caspersson等3建立人类染色体喹吖因分带技术以来,相继发展了各种吉姆萨染色分带技术。这些分带技术是精确分析动物染色体的有效手段,在很大程度上促进了动物细胞遗传学的研究。鱼类是低等脊椎动物,研究鱼类的染色体与分带,不仅在鱼类染色体核型、核型的演化与亲缘关系的分析,而且对于脊椎动物染色体的细胞化学、组织结构与进化的研究都有重要的意义。       

节节麦细胞不同分裂时期和阶段的G-带核型及其变动性分析

采用改良的ASG法获得了中期和3个染色体凝缩程度不同的早中期阶段(分别称为早中期Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ)染色体的G_带,并进行了G_带核型和变动性分析。所分析的分裂时期和阶段,每条染色体的全长显示出了密切邻近的多重的带纹,带纹细窄、大小较相近,带间区小,带纹分布较密集而均匀。随着有丝分裂进程推进,染色体的带纹数目减少,早中期Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ至中期单倍染色体组的G_带带纹总数分别减少41%、36%、28%,而染色体组的绝对长度分别缩短43%、37%、27%,带数减少幅度与染色体长度缩短的幅度几乎相等。早中期Ⅰ至早中期Ⅱ、Ⅲ和早中期Ⅱ至早中期Ⅲ的带纹减少幅度与染色体长度缩短幅度也基本一致。染色体组中各染色体之间带纹减少和染色体缩短的比例不尽相同,有一定的变幅。早中期Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ和中期染色体组中每单位绝对长度的带数(带/μm)分别为2.19、2.22、2.32和2.29,差异不大。对节节麦G_带的特性等问题进行了讨论。

大麦G—显带核型的研究

本文报道了 ASG 法处理的三个栽培大麦(Hordeum Vulgare)品种 G-带的核型研究。结果表明无论是早中期或中期染色体都显示出了密切邻近的、多重的 G-带带纹。在有丝分裂过程中染色体愈浓缩带纹数目愈少。同源染色体之间带纹分布的位置、染色深浅以及带纹数目都基本一致,可以较为准确地进行配对。同一分裂时期不同染色体的 G-带带纹各具一定的特点,可以作为鉴别的标记。讨论了显带技术和中期染色体的 G-带等问题。     

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.

采用原位分子杂交方法检测HCV RNA及HBV X基因;采用免疫组织化学方法研究HCV核心抗原,非结构区C33c抗原及HBxAg在肝细胞肝癌中的定位及分布.结果表明(1)HCV RNA、HBV X基因在肝细胞肝癌组织检出率分别为40%(55/136)和82%(112/136).HCV RNA定位于癌细胞的胞浆内,阳性细胞呈散在、灶状及弥漫分布三种形式;HBV X基因在肝癌细胞中的分布呈胞浆型、核型及核浆型,阳性细胞也呈上述三种分布形式;(2)HCV C33c抗原、核心抗原在肝细胞肝癌中的阳性率为81%(133/164)及86%(141/164).C33c抗原定位于癌细胞及肝细胞的胞浆内;核心抗原既定位于癌细胞核中,又可定位于胞浆中.C33c抗原阳性细胞以灶状分布为主;而核心抗原阳性细     

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.
