Fluctuations in the concentration of Brownian particles in one and two dimensions, or any reasonable measurement of the concentration such as in fluorescence correlation spectroscopy, is shown to be a stochastic fractal with a long tail. Being singular at omega = 0, the power spectrum of the fluctuation S(omega) approximately omega-1/2 for diffusion in one dimension, approximately log omega in two dimensions, but non-singular in three dimensions. This discovery provides one simple physical mechanism for possible long-memory fractal behavior, and its implications to various biological processes are discussed. 相似文献

1. The pituitary hormones can be divided into 4 families; within each the members are structurally related and have probably evolved from a common ancestor by a process of gene duplication and divergence. 2. Recent structural studies have revealed much about the evolution of proteins. The roles of point mutation, gene duplication and partial gene duplication in molecular evolution have been highlighted, and the nature of the evolutionary forces involved has been extensively debated. The information available about the evolution of proteins in general provides a background for consideration of pituitary hormone evolution. 3. The structure and function of the mammalian neurohypophysial hormones (oxytocin and vasopressin) has been studied in detail. Related (structurally similar) peptides have been found in the neurohypophyses of lower vertebrates and have been Characterized in many instances. Several schemes have been proposed for the evolution of these hormones. 4. The vasopressins of the pig and its relatives show a genetic polymorphism. The roles of neurohypophysial hormones in lower vertebrates are very varied and not fully understood. 5. The ACTHs and MSHs are members of a second family of pituitary hormones. They are polypeptides of moderate size. Studies on amino-acid sequences have been carried out for ACTHs and MSHs from several mammals. α-MSH is identical in all cases studied in detail, but β-MSH and ACTH vary to some extent. There is considerable sequence homology between the hormones in this family - indicating a common phylogenetic origin and several gene duplications. 6. Dogfish MSH is the only non-mammalian hormone of the ACTH-MSH family to have been studied in detail. Two MSHs have been isolated from this species; both resemble the a-MSH of mammals in amino-acid sequence. ACTH-like and MSH-like hormones exist in many other vertebrate groups, but have not been characterized fully. 7. Structure-function relationships have been widely studied in the ACTH-MSH family, and have some interesting evolutionary implications. Polymorphism of P-MSHs is found in some mammals. 8. A third family of protein hormones includes pituitary prolactin and growth hormone, and placental lactogen. These are proteins of moderate size which have been shown to be widely distributed among the vertebrates. Species specificity can be recognized with regard to biological, immunological and structural properties. 9. Amino-acid sequences have been determined for growth hormones and prolactins from several mammals. There is sequence homology between growth hormone and prolactin. Human placental lactogen closely resembles human growth hormone. A phylogenetic tree has been constructed for this protein family. Rates of evolution within the group are rather variable. 10. The fourth family of pituitary hormones (FSH, LH, TSH and some related placental hormones) are all glycoproteins and have a subunit structure. Extensive sequence studies have been carried out on the hormones from some mammals, and show that there is considerable homology between the various subunits. The α-subunits of human TSH, LH and HCG (and probably FSH) are very similar. The β-subunits are different, but homologous. Evolution of this family clearly took place by a series of gene duplications followed by gene divergence. Schemes whereby this could have occurred have been discussed. Related hormones occur in lower vertebrates, but have not been fully characterized. Some lower vertebrates may possess only one gonado-trophin. 11. The pituitary hormones provide an interesting range of evolutionary problems, and are useful models for the study of molecular evolution. The evolutionary processes involved in their diversification have been discussed, with particular reference to the co-evolution of hormones and their receptors. Neutral mutations and gene duplications may have played a role in providing co-existing variation of hormones and receptors. 12. A speculative model for the evolution of neurohypophysial hormones is proposed, as an example of how molecular evolution may have operated in this and other hormone groups. 13. Homologies have been proposed between the various families of pituitary hormones, and between pituitary proteins and other entero-secretory proteins. The pituitary protein hormones were probably elaborated from smaller molecules by a process of partial gene duplication. 相似文献

We present the sequence of the 5' terminal 585 nucleotides of mouse 28S rRNA as inferred from the DNA sequence of a cloned gene fragment. The comparison of mouse 28S rRNA sequence with its yeast homolog, the only known complete sequence of eukaryotic nucleus-encoded large rRNA (see ref. 1, 2) reveals the strong conservation of two large stretches which are interspersed with completely divergent sequences. These two blocks of homology span the two segments which have been recently proposed to participate directly in the 5.8S-large rRNA complex in yeast (see ref. 1) through base-pairing with both termini of 5.8S rRNA. The validity of the proposed structural model for 5.8S-28S rRNA complex in eukaryotes is strongly supported by comparative analysis of mouse and yeast sequences: despite a number of mutations in 28S and 5.8S rRNA sequences in interacting regions, the secondary structure that can be proposed for mouse complex is perfectly identical with yeast's, with all the 41 base-pairings between the two molecules maintained through 11 pairs of compensatory base changes. The other regions of the mouse 28S rRNA 5'terminal domain, which have extensively diverged in primary sequence, can nevertheless be folded in a secondary structure pattern highly reminiscent of their yeast' homolog. A minor revision is proposed for mouse 5.8S rRNA sequence. 相似文献

Molecular evolution modeled as a fractal Poisson process in agreement with mammalian sequence comparisons 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The fractal doubly stochastic Poisson process (FDSPP) model of molecular
evolution, like other doubly stochastic Poisson models, agrees with the
high estimates for the index of dispersion found from sequence comparisons.
Unlike certain previous models, the FDSPP also predicts a positive
geometric correlation between the index of dispersion and the mean number
of substitutions. Such a relationship is statistically proven herein using
comparisons between 49 mammalian genes. There is no characteristic rate
associated with molecular evolution according to this model, but there is a
scaling relationship in rates according to a fractal dimension of
evolution. The FDSPP is a suitable replacement for the homogeneous Poisson
process in tests of the lineage dependence of rates and in estimating
confidence intervals for divergence times. As opposed to other fractal
models, this model can be interpreted in terms of Darwinian selection and
drift.

利用DNA测序技术对台湾海峡部分鱼类绦虫的16S rRNA和18S rRNA基因片段序列进行了分析。使用PAUP4·0b10软件构建的进化树显示,目前关于绦虫二叶目、锥吻目、假叶目、盘头目和四叶目的划分是比较合理的,绦虫进化基本遵循了头节形态从简单到复杂的进化规律。报道了国内首次发现的双叶目绦虫,进化树结果初步支持了巨槽属和棘头属的划分。此外,结果也支持了前孔属绦虫的分类地位。但是,对耳槽属绦虫与阶室属绦虫的形态学划分与分子系统学相矛盾,利用16S rRNA基因对盘头目各种的进化树分析与形态学差异很大,这些问题都需要更多研究来进行深入分析。 相似文献

Eukaryotic 5S rRNA hybridizes specifically with 18S rRNA in vitro to form a stable intermolecular RNA:RNA hybrid. We have used 5S rRNA/18S rRNA fragment hybridization studies coupled with ribonuclease digestion and primer extension/chain termination analysis of 5S rRNA:18S rRNA hybrids to more completely map those mouse 5S rRNA and 18S rRNA sequences responsible for duplex formation. Fragment hybridization analysis has defined a 5'-terminal region of 5S rRNA (nucleotides 6-27) which base-pairs with two independent sequences in 18S rRNA designated Regions 1 (nucleotides 1157-1180) and 2 (nucleotides 1324-1339). Ribonuclease digestion of isolated 5S rRNA:18S rRNA hybrids with both single-strand- and double-strand-specific nucleases supports the involvement of this 5'-terminal 5S rRNA sequence in 18S rRNA hybridization. Primer extension/chain termination analysis of isolated 5S rRNA:18S rRNA hybrids confirms the base-pairing of 5S rRNA to the designated Regions 1 and 2 of 18S rRNA. Using these results, 5S rRNA:18S rRNA intermolecular hybrid structures are proposed. Comparative sequence analysis revealed the conservation of these hybrid structures in higher eukaryotes and the same but smaller core hybrid structures in lower eukaryotes and prokaryotes. This suggests that the 5S rRNA:16S/18S rRNA hybrids have been conserved in evolution for ribosome function. 相似文献

The complete nucleotide sequence of the 25 S rRNA gene from one rDNA repeating unit of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been determined. The corresponding 25 S rRNA molecule contains 3392 nucleotides and has an estimated relative molecular mass (Mr, Na-salt) or 1.17 x 10(6). Striking sequence homology is observed with known 5'- and 3'-end terminal segments of L-rRNA from other eukaryotes. Possible models of interaction with 5.8 S rRNA are discussed. 相似文献

The yeast exosome is a complex of at least 10 essential 3'-5' riboexonucleases which is involved in 3'-processing of many RNA species. An exosome-like complex has been found or predicted to exist in other eukaryotes but not in Escherichia coli. The unicellular parasite Trypanosoma brucei diverged very early in eukaryotic evolution. We show here that T.brucei contains at least eight exosome subunit homologs, but only a subset of these associate in a complex. Accordingly, the T.brucei exosome is smaller than that of yeast. Both free and complex-associated homologs are essential for cell viability and are involved in 5.8S rRNA maturation. We suggest that the exosome was present in primitive eukaryotes, and became increasingly complex during subsequent evolution. 相似文献
