Calcium transport mechanisms in dog red blood cells studied from measurements of initial flux rates

Ca2+ efflux from dog red blood cells loaded with Ca2+ using the A23187 ionophore could be separated into two main components: (1) Mg- and ATP-dependent (active transport) and (2) dependent on external Na (K1/2 around 15 mM); at 80 microM internal free Ca the relative magnitudes of these fluxes were 70% and 30% respectively. The Na-dependent Ca2+ efflux had the following additional properties: (i) it was partially inhibited by ATP depletion or preincubation with vanadate, but it was not affected by Mg2+ depletion; (ii) it failed to be stimulated by external monovalent cations other than Na: (iii) it was stimulated by reduction in the internal Na+ concentration. Both active and Na-dependent Ca2+ efflux remained unchanged in hypotonic solutions or in solutions with alkaline pH (8.5). In cells containing ATP and Mg2+, external Ca2+ inhibited Ca2+ efflux (K1/2 around 1 mM); on the other hand, in Mg-free dog red cells external Ca2+ stimulated Ca2+ efflux (K1/2 about 30 microM). In Mg-depleted red cells incubated in the absence of external Na2+, Ca2+ influx as a function of external Ca2+ followed a monotonically saturable function (K1/2 around 20 microM): addition of Na resulted in (i) inhibition of Ca2+ influx and (ii) a sigmoid relationship between flux and external Ca2+. Intracellular Ca2+ stimulated the external Na-dependent Ca2+ efflux along a sigmoid curve (K1/2 around 30 microM); on the other hand the Ca pump had a biphasic response to internal Ca2+: stimulation at low internal Ca2+ (K1/2 between 1 and 10 microM), followed by a decline at internal Ca2+ concentrations higher than 50 microM.     

Identification and quantification of endogenous gibberellins in apical buds and the cambial region of Eucalyptus

Endogenous gibberellins (GAs) were extracted and purified from apical buds of Eucalyptus nitens (Deane and Maid.) Maid. and the cambial region of E. globulus (Labill.). then analysed by capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. GA₁ GA₁₉ GA₂₀ and GA₂₉ were identified by full scan mass spectra. Kovats retention indices and high resolution selected ion monitoring. Using deuterated internal standards. GA₁. GA₁₉. GA₂₀ and putative GA₂₉ and GA₅₃ were quantified in the apical buds, while GA₄. GA₈. GA₉ and GA₄₄ were shown to be either absent or present at very low levels. From the cambial region. GA₁ and GA₂₀ were quantified at levels of 0.30 ng (g fresh weight)-¹ and 8.8 ng (g fresh weight)-¹ respectively. These data suggest that the early 13-hydroxylation pathway is the dominant pathway for GA biosynthesis in Eucalyptus .

黄曲霉群菌种产生黄曲霉毒素B_1的调查研究

本文对来自我国20个省、市、自治区的不同基物上分离的和中国科学院微生物研究所菌种保藏室以及其他单位提供的黄曲霉群菌种,经随机选取82株进行了黄曲霉毒素B_1的测定,证明在测试的9个已知分类群中产生黄曲霉毒素B_1的菌种只限于寄生曲霉和黄曲霉,另外4株种名未定者也能产生此种毒素。在黄曲霉中产毒菌株约占30％(28.3％),其在GAN(葡萄糖硝酸铵)和大米培养基中的黄曲霉毒素B_1的最高产量分别为133,333.3和160,000.0ppb。总的来说,大体上可以反映在我国一般基物上黄曲霉产毒菌株存在的现状。在实验过程中,还对黄曲霉群菌种在GAN和大米培养基中黄曲霉毒素B_1的产量和产毒菌株数作了比较。发现在大米培养基中黄曲霉毒素B_1的产量高于GAN,而且测试的黄曲霉产毒菌株在这两种培养基中均各有不能产毒的菌株,因此,在测定产毒菌株时,若仅采用其中一种产毒培养基,往往会有漏掉产毒菌株的可能性。

Karyotype Analysis of 5 Species of Genus Astragalus

The karyotypes of five species in Astragalus (A. dahuricus DC., A. mongolicus Bunge., A. adsurgens Pall., A. melilotoides Pell., A. huangheensis H. C. Fu., Y. H. Liu) were studied. Among them, the karyotypes of A. dahuricus and A. melilotoides are reported for the first time. While A. melilotoides is tetraploid (2n=4X=32), all the others are found to be diploid (2n= 2X = 16). Based on the comparison of karyotypes, the evolu-tionary order of these 5 species is discussed.
