Ultracentrifuge measurements show that the individual histones f2a1 and f3 interact to form tetramers in solution. The conditions which facilitate renaturation are discussed. 相似文献

Two histones from calf thymus, the slightly lysine-rich histone f2a2 and the arginine-rich f3, were combined separately, with homologous DNA. The complexes were reconstituted by means of guanidine hydrochloride gradient dialysis, and their circular dichroic (CD) spectra were examined in 0.14 M NaCl. The CD spectra of f2a2-DNA complexes are characterized by a positive band at 272 nm which is blue-shifted and greatly enhanced relative to the corresponding band for native DNA. This type of CD change was noted previously with f2a1-DNA and f2b-DNA complexes. In contrast, f3 histone causes only minor distortions in the DNA CD spectrum, and their character depends upon the state of the two sulfhydryl groups in f3. When the cysteines are reduced, f3-DNA complexes have a slightly increased positive band with a small blue shift; when oxidized disulfide is the predominant form, this CD band becomes slightly smaller than native DNA value. This laboratory has now examined complexes reconstituted from DNA and all five histones of calf thymus. The sum of the CD spectra of these complexes, although very similar to the CD curve for reconstituted complexes containing whole histone, does not approximate that of chromatin; the consequence of this observation is discussed. 相似文献

Lysozyme precipitates f2 bacteriophage at a concentration of about one molecule of lysozyme per molecule of capsid subunit. This activity of lysozyme depends on its conformation but not upon the catalytic activity of the enzyme. The precipitation is thought to be a disruption of the solvation of the phage particle by adsorption of the enzyme to the negatively charged outer surface which has been postulated for this virus previously. A patch of six to nine positive charges on the lysozyme molecule is probably involved. Hemoglobin, RNase, α lactalbumin bovine serum albumin, and trypsin do not precipitate the phage but histone, protamine and spermine do. Consistent with the proposed mechanism, lysozyme is 105 times more effective than spermine on a molar basis. 相似文献

Background
There is a high prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency in women of reproductive age.Methods
This work studied the first two generations of offspring (F1 and F2) of Swiss mice from mothers fed one of two diets: SC (standard chow) or VitD- (vitamin D-deficient). Functional and developmental kidney measurements were taken.Results
The first two generations of the VitD- group had higher blood pressure at 6 months of age than the offspring of the SC group as well as an increase in renin and AT1r expression. However, at all ages, both F1 and F2 VitD- mice had shorter glomerular diameters, and diet played a significant role in the total variation. Both the F1 and F2 generations of the VitD- group had more immature glomeruli than offspring from the SC group. Immature glomeruli begin to disappear at 10 days, but at this age, F1-VitD- mice had more immature and mature glomeruli than F1-SC mice. At 6 months of age, F1-VitD- mice exhibited more glomeruli, while F2-VitD- mice exhibited the same number of glomeruli as F2-SC mice, but fewer glomeruli compared to the F1-VitD group. Both diet and generation account for the total variation in the number of glomeruli. Decreases in urine output and podocin expression and increases in urea and creatinine in the urine were observed in F1 offspring.Conclusion
These findings demonstrate that maternal vitamin D deficiency accompanies changes in the renal expression of important factors that may retard the maturation of glomeruli by extending the period of nephrogenesis. 相似文献13.

The inactivation kinetics of bacteriophage f2 were studied by using ozone under controlled laboratory conditions. The phage were rapidly inactivated during the first 5 s of the reaction by 5 and 7 logs at ozone concentrations of 0.09 and 0.8 mg/liter, respectively. During the next 10 min, the phage were further inactivated at a slower rate in both treatments. The [3H]uridine-labeled f2 phage and its ribonucleic acid (RNA) were examined to elucidate the mechanism of ozone inactivation, utilizing adsorption to host bacteria, sucrose density gradient analysis, and electron microscopy. The specific adsorption of the phage was reduced by ozonation in the same pattern as plaque-forming unit reduction. RNA was released from the phage particles during ozonation, although it had reduced infectivity for spheroplasts. Electron microscopic examination showed that the phage coat was broken by ozonation into many protein subunit pieces and that the specific adsorption of the phage to host pili was inversely related to the extent of phage breakage. The RNA enclosed in the phage coat was inactivated less by ozonation than were whole phage, but inactivated more than naked RNA. These findings suggest that ozone breaks the protein capsid into subunits, liberating RNA and disrupting adsorption to the host pili, and that the RNA may be secondarily sheared by a reduction with and/or without the coat protein molecules, which have been modified by ozonation. 相似文献
