4-O-Glycosylation of 2-azidoethyl 2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,3-di-O-benzyl-6-O-benzoyl--D-galactopyranosyl)--D-glucopyranoside with a disaccharide donor, 4-trichloroacetamidophenyl 4,6-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl--D-galactopyranosyl)-1-thio-2-trichloroacetamido--D-galactopyranoside, in dichloromethane in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid resulted in a tetrasaccharide, 2-azidoethyl (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl--D-galactopyranosyl)-(1 3)-(4,6-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-trichloroacetamido--D-galactopyranosyl)-(1 4)-(2,3-di-O-benzyl-6-O-benzoyl--D-galactopyranosyl)-(1 4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl--D-glucopyranoside, in 69% yield. The complete removal of O-protecting groups in the tetrasaccharide, the replacement of N-trichloroacetyl by N-acetyl group, and the reduction of the aglycone azide group to amine led to the target aminoethyl glycoside of -D-Gal-(1 3)--D-GalNAc-(1 4)--D-Gal-(1 4)--D-Glc-OCH2CH2NH2 containing the oligosaccharide chain of asialo-GM1 ganglioside in 72% overall yield. Selective 3-O-glycosylation of 2-azidoethyl 2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,6-di-O-benzyl--D-galactopyranosyl)--D-glucopyranoside with thioglycoside methyl (ethyl 5-acetamido-4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-2-thio-D-glycero--D-galacto-2-nonulopyranosyl)oate in acetonitrile in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid afforded 2-azidoethyl [methyl (5-acetamido-4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-D-glycero--D-galacto-2-nonulopyranosyl)oate]-(2 3)-(2,6-di-O-benzyl--D-galactopyranosyl)-(1 4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl--D-glucopyranoside, the selectively protected derivative of the oligosaccharide chain of GM3 ganglioside, in 79% yield. Its 4-O-glycosylation with a disaccharide glycosyl donor, (4-trichloroacetophenyl-4,6-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl--D-galactopyranosyl) 1-thio-2-trichloroacetamido--D-galactopyranoside in dichloromethane in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid gave 2-azidoethyl (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl--D-galactopyranosyl)-(1 3)-(4,6-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-trichloroacetamido--D-galactopyranosyl)-(1 4)-{[methyl (5-acetamido-4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-D-glycero--D-galacto-2-nonulopyranosyl)onate]-(2 3)}-(2,6-di-O-benzyl--D-galactopyranosyl)-(1 4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl--D-glucopyranoside in 85% yield. The resulting pentasaccharide was O-deprotected, its N-trichloroacetyl group was replaced by N-acetyl group, and the aglycone azide group was reduced to afford in 85% overall yield aminoethyl glycoside of -D-Gal-(1 3)--D-GalNAc-(1 4)-[-D-Neu5Ac-(2 3)]--D-Gal-(1 4)--D-Glc-OCH2CH2NH2 containing the oligosaccharide chain of GM1 ganglioside. 相似文献

This paper aims to achieve insight into various ecological theories in the Netherlands which have different, and sometimes opposing, views on the conservation of nature. Interviews, publications and archival research brought to light four separate theories: vitalistic/holistic, dynamic, cybernetic and chaos. Diversity is reached through stability according to vitalistic/holistic and cybernetic theories, but through change and instablility according to the dynamic and chaos theories. These two groups are working apart, and continue to have their own ideas. Prediction of the future is only possible with the vitalistic/holistic and cybernetic theories. Ecologists who adhere to these theories feel responsible and able in different ways to change ecological nature towards desirable end goals. The other two theories, dynamic and chaos, appear to be less activist. 相似文献

Eugene K. Balon 《Environmental Biology of Fishes》2002,65(1):1-35
When I started the journal Environmental Biology of Fishes more than 25 years ago, it was designed to avoid any prejudices and scientific dogmas, to keep an open mind, and to allow publication of ideas that are irritating to followers of the so-called mainstream, ideas that few other journals dared to touch (Balon 1976, 1989d). While such articles in the journal were often ignored by the mainstream practitioners and the political establishment, none was ever opposed or proven wrong. As in many similar cases before, only time will show if these contributions were valid and of value to the advancement of knowledge.I have often wondered why it takes so long for some of the universal facts and ideas to be accepted or even to be known. I have come to believe that like with many textbooks some facts and conclusions are copied from one book to the next (as in the case of the origin of the common carp – Balon 1974, 1995a,b) without knowing or admitting that in the meantime new facts require new syntheses and conclusions. Even good scholars resist unknown facts or ideas. It is irritating that one's knowledge is inadequate or that others beat us to be first. I have wondered why wrong ideas persist for so long; but Bateson (1979, p. 206) already explained it to his daughter ... yes, your image of evolution is exact. And what Darwin called natural selection is the surfacing of the tautology or presupposition that what stays true longer does indeed stay true longer than what stays true not so long.After all it was Jean Baptiste Lamarckgrave, the founder of evolutionary theory, miserable, old, and blind, ... (Bateson 1972, p. xii) and/or Gottfried Treviranus who presented the truth long before the privileged Charles Darwin, alas in wrong languages. Over time, ignoring the truth became fashionable and the question which of the four theories of evolution (Løvtrup 1982) can be attributed to Darwin, if any, irrelevant. It is [exclaims Croizat 1977, transl. 1987, p. 137] a gross, very grave mistake to confuse Darwin as a historical figure with Darwin as an exalted figure of the thinking of biology (Croizat's italics).Nearly 30 years ago a BBC TV series and book on evolution glorified Darwin and molecular biology. Calder (1973, p. 9), the author of this book entitled The life game: evolution and the new biology felt that Darwin would [merely] need to know about the survival of the quickest, when it came to crossing the street. But the street was never crossed! Many TV viewers of the recent PBS series Evolution were again misled into believing that evolution was discovered by Darwin. Even Gould (2001) in the Introduction and the producer Hutton (2001) in the Foreword to the companion book of this series (Zimmer 2001) give the Darwinian evolution [sic] an exposé it hardly deserves. While such views have been repeatedly proven wrong, most scholars, with the exception of a few scientists, philosophers, and journalists, comfortably assume Darwin's priority in spite of numerous published evidences to the contrary. This myth is then fed to the general public. The following retrospective essay attempts to compile proofs in support of the evolutionary processes other than Darwin's natural selection and the gene-centric new synthesis, old by now as it is. 相似文献

The reaction of methanol dehydrogenase with cytochrome c
L from Methylophaga marina and the reactions of the non-physiological substrates, Wurster's blue and ascorbic acid, with both proteins were studied as a function of temperature (4–32 °C), pressure (1–2000 bar) and ionic strength using the optical high pressure stopped-flow method. The thermodynamic parameters H, S and V were determined for all reactions where electron transfers are involved. These data allowed the determination of the Maxwell relationships which proved the internal thermodynamic consistency of the system under study. A conformational change on the cytochrome c
L level was deduced from both breaks in the Arrhenius plots and the variation of the V with temperature.Abbreviations MOPS

Summary An epidermolytic toxin target was observed in keratohyalin granules of sectioned epidermis by a direct fluorescence procedure using FTC-toxin, but not by an indirect procedure using sequential reaction with toxin, anti-toxin and FTC-secondary antibody. The investigation of the two procedures was extended to keratinocytes. A dispase digestion procedure yielded three fractions which corresponded to basal, spinous and granular cells according to biochemical and morphological criteria. It was shown that the direct and indirect procedures both detected the toxin target in the keratohyalin granules of granular cells, but that the indirect procedure was very insensitive. In control experiments, the profilaggrin of keratohyalin granules was detected readily in cells by a direct procedure using FTC-antiprofilaggrin but only weakly by an indirect double antibody procedure. Insensitivity to indirect procedures thus appears to be a particular property of the keratohyalin granule site. It was shown that the toxin target was readily accessible in permeable (trypsin-isolated) granular cells but inaccessible in impermeable (dispase-isolated) cells. 相似文献

The effect of an induced salmonid parr-to-smolt metamorphosis (smoltification) on the optical quality of the ocular lens was studied. In two separate experiments, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) parr were fed thyroxine in their diet to induce the metamorphosis. Lenses were excised at regular samplings during the treatment period and optically scanned using a custom scanning laser monitor. Radioimmunoassay was used to measure serum titers of thyroxine and 3,5,3-triiodo-L-thyronine. It was found that lens optical quality was consistently negatively correlated with 3,5,3-triiodo-L-thyronine levels, but not with thyroxine levels. To test if thyroid hormones are directly responsible for the change in optical quality, rainbow trout lenses were cultured for 72 h in a medium containing 3,5,3-triiodo-L-thyronine, but no effect was observed. The significance of these findings in the contexts of the fishes visual capabilities and smolting physiology is discussed. 相似文献

The ability to produce extracellular O-glycosylhydrolases was studied in 14 strains of marine filamentous fungi sampled from the bottom sediments of the South China Sea. The following activities were detected in the culture liquids of the fungi: N-acetyl--D-glucosaminidase, -D-glucosidase, -D-galactosidase, -1,3-glucanase, amylase, and pustulanase. -1,3-Glucanases were isolated by ultrafiltration, hydrophobic interaction chromatography, and ion exchange chromatography, and their properties were studied. Data on products of enzymatic digestion of laminaran, absence of transglycosylation activity, and the pattern of action of natural inhibitors confirmed that -1,3-glucanase belonged to the exo type. Inhibitor analysis demonstrated the role of a thiol group and tryptophan and tyrosine residues in the catalytic activity. 相似文献

Summary Homology maps between bacteriophages 81, 80 and were constructed on the basis of electron microscope observation of DNA heteroduplexes. In 81/80 heteroduplex, the left half and the right terminal region of 13% the total molecular length were highly homologous, while the remaining region covering the early gene cluster was entirely nonhomologous. In 81/ heteroduplex, high-degree homologies were detected at the left 14% terminal region covering the head gene cluster, the central 3.8% region covering the att-int-xis region and the 1.3% Q homology region. Low-degree homologies of shorter length were scattered at the tail gene cluster, b2 region, cIII region, PQ region and SR region. Comparing our results with the homology maps of other lambdoid phages reported by Simon et al. (1971) and Fiandt et al. (1971), a phylogenic relation of 81 to other lambdoid phages and the role of recombination in the course of divergence of lambdoid phages are discussed. 相似文献

The conformational properties of the oligosaccharide chain of GM1 ganglioside containingN-glycolyl-neuraminic acid, -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Gc-(2-3)]--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer, were studied through NMR nuclear Overhauser effect investigations on the monomeric ganglioside in dimethylsulfoxide, and on mixed micelles of ganglioside and dodecylphosphocholine in water. Several interresidual contacts for the trisaccharide core--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Gc-(2-3)]--Gal-were found to fix the relative orientitation of the three saccharides, while the glycosidic linkage of the terminal -Gal-was found to be quite mobile as the -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-disaccharide exists in different conformations. These results are similar to those found for two GM1 gangliosides containingN-acetyl-neuraminic acid and neuraminic acid [1].Abbreviations Ganglioside nomenclature is in accordance with Svennerholm [23] and the IUPAC-IUB Recommendations [24] GM3(Neu5Ac)

Summary An electroporation method using a Bio-Rad Gene Pulser has been optimized for introducing heterologous DNA into Kluyveromyces lactis yeasts. The plasmid pCR1, derived from a native Kluyveromyces plasmid, was used to transform K. lactis. This plasmid produces a wheat -amylase and contains both the biosynthetic marker URAA and G418 resistance genes. Transformation was optimal at 4500 V/cm, 25 F, and with 0.2 g plasmid DNA. Transformation efficiencies in the range 104–105 transformants/107 cells/g DNA were obtained. 相似文献

The low-copy-number and broad-host-range pSM19035-derived plasmid pBT233 is stably inherited in Bacillus subtilis cells. Two distinct regions, segA and segB, enhance the segregational stability of the plasmid. Both regions function in a replicon-independent manner. The maximization of random plasmid segregation is accomplished by the recombination proficiency of the host or the presence of the pBT233 segA region. The segA region contains two open reading frames (or) [ and ]. Inactivation or deletion of or results in SegA– plasmids. Better than random segregation requires an active segB region. The segB region contains two ors (or and or). Inactivation of either of the orfs does not lead to an increase in cell death, but or– plasmids are randomly segregated. These results suggest that pBT233 stabilization relies on a complex system involving resolution of plasmid oligomers (segA) and on the function(s) encoded by the segB region. 相似文献

Photosynthetic carbon fixation of freshly isolated cells of Prochloron, the symbiont of Lissoclinum patella, proceeded at high rates (80–180 mol O2·mgChl-1·h-1) in buffered seawater and showed a typical light response, saturating at about 300 E·m-2·s-1. However, in NaCl solutions osmotically equivalent to seawater CO2-dependent O2 evolution ceased or was severely inhibited. Hypotonic or hypertonic conditions induce degrees of swelling or shrinkage, respectively, apparently causing similar increases in the plasmamembrane's permeability to ferricyanide. Initially high, but rapidly declining, rates of electron transport were observed when the cells were suspended in distilled water. This inhibition was not caused by rupture of the cells, indicating instead diffusive loss of some essential factor(s) which normally exchange easily and rapidly between the cells and/or the host environment. Such rapid exchange may be part of the mechanism of this symbiosis and, if not adequately understood, may frustrate attempts to culture Prochloron away from its host.Abbreviations HEPES

Targeted mapping and linkage analysis of morphological isozyme,and RAPD markers in peach 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25

Nine different F2 families of peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] were analyzed for linkage relationships between 14 morphological and two isozyme loci. Linkage was detected between weeping (We) and white flower (W), 33 cM; double flower (Dl) and pillar (Br), 10 cM; and flesh color (Y) and malate dehydrogenase (Mdh1), 26 cM. A leaf variant phenotypically distinct from the previously reported wavy-leaf (Wa) mutant in peach was found in progeny of Davie II. The new willow-leaf character (designated Wa2) was closely linked (0.4 cM) to a new dwarf phenotype (designated Dw3). Two families derived from the pollen-fertile cultivar White Glory segregated for pollen sterility, but segregation did not follow a 31 ratio. Evidence is presented suggesting that White Glory possesses a pollen-sterility gene (designated Ps2) that is non-allelic to the previously reported pollen-sterility gene (Ps) in peach. Ps2 was linked to both weeping (We-Ps2, 15.5 cM) and white flower (Ps2-W, 25.3 cM). A genomic map of peach containing 83 RAPD, one isozyme, and four morphological markers was generated using an F2 family obtained by selfing an NC174RL x Pillar F1. A total of 83 RAPD markers were assigned to 15 linkage groups. Various RAPD markers were linked to morphological traits. Bulked segregant analysis was used to identify RAPD markers flanking the red-leaf (Gr) and Mdh1 loci in the NC174RL x Pillar and Marsun x White Glory F2 families, respectively. Three markers flanking Mdh1 and ten markers flanking Gr were identified. The combination of RAPD markers and bulked segregant analysis provides an efficient method of identifying markers flanking traits of interest. Markers linked to traits that can only be scored late in development are potentially useful for marker-aided selection in trees. Alternatives for obtaining additional map order information for repulsion-phase markers in large F2 populations are proposed.This work was supported in part by the McKnight Foundation, North Carolina Biotechnology Center, North Carolina State University Forest Biotechnology Research Consortium, and the North Carolina Agricultural Research Service, Raleigh, North Carolina 相似文献

Doubled haploid (DH) progeny from a cross between the scald susceptible barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivar Ingrid and the resistant accession CI 11549 (Nigrinudum) was evaluated for resistance in the pathogen Rhynchosporium secalis (Oudem) J.J. Davis. Two linked and incompletely dominant loci confer resistance CI 11549 against isolate 4004. One is an allele at the complex Rrs1 locus on chromosome 3H close to the centromere; the other is located 22 cM distally on the long arm. The latter locus is designated Rrs4. In BC3-lines into Ingrid from CI 2222 (another Nigrinudum) resistance seems governed by one locus close to the telomeric region of chromosome 7H, probably allelic to Rrs2. In neither case did we find any trace of the recessive gene rh8 reported to be present in Nigrinudum. Various resistance donors of Ethiopian origin designated as Nigrinudum, Jet or Abyssinian were identical to a great extent with respect to markers, but differed in resistance to different isolates of scald or in barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) resistance. The implications for their use as differentials in scald tests and screening of germplasm collections are discussed. 相似文献

Sialic acids and the majorO-glycosidic oligosaccharide of glycophorin MK from monkey (Japanese monkey,Macaca fuscata) erythrocyte membranes were characterized.N-Glycolylneuraminic acid (neu5Gc) was found as the major sialic acid, which was confirmed by gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry as the trimethylsilyl methyl ester. ThreeO-glycosidic oligosaccharide units were obtained from a tryptic glycopeptide that contained all of the carbohydrate units in glycophorin MK by mild alkaline borohydride/borotritide treatment. Carbohydrate analyses of the oligosaccharides revealed that they were composed of Neu5Gc, galactose andN-acetylgalactosaminitol in the molar ratios of 111 (trisaccharide), 211 (tetrasaccharide) and 111 (pentasaccharide). The content of oligosaccharide units was estimated to be 1125 for penta-, tetra- and trisaccharide, respectively, based on the yields, the molecular weight, and the number of oligosaccharide attachment sites in the amino-acid sequence. The tetrasaccharide was the major oligosaccharide and its structure was proposed to be Neu5Gc2-3Gal1-3[Neu5Gc2-6]GalNAcol. 相似文献

In the present report, we used serological, cellular, and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) to investigate the DR1 haplotype in the Israeli population. We describe an Israeli homozygous typing cell (HTC), HLA-DwLVA, which defines a new lymphocyte-activating determinant associated with Bw65, DR1 and distinct from Dwl. The parents of this donor, non-Ashkenazi Algerian Jews, are first cousins and share HLA-Cw8, Bw65, BfS, DR1, DQw1, DPw4. No specificity could be assigned to HLA-DwLVA using the 91 Ninth Workshop HTCs. Two families and forty unrelated DR1 individuals were studied with DwLVA and a panel of DR1/Dw1 HTCs. HLA-DwLVA showed segregation as a single determinant within families. This new specificity was present in 24 out of 40 (60%) unrelated DR1 individuals, indicating that in the Israeli population DwLVA is the main lymphocyte-defined determinant associated with the serologically defined DRI specificity, in contrast to non-Jewish Caucasoids where DR1 is significantly associated with Dw1. The vast majority of DwLVA-positive carriers were also Bw65 carriers, indicating that Bw65, DR1, DwLVA may represent a typical allele combination in the Israeli population. The RFLP analysis established the correlation of certain RFLPs with Dw1 and DwLVA. In addition, we describe a cluster of RFLPs that may correspond to a new Dw subtype associated with DR1, for which no serological and cellular reagents have been described so far. 相似文献

Testis-specific β2 tubulins are identical in Drosophila melanogaster and D. hydei but differ from the ubiquitous β1 tubulin 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

In Drosophila as in many organisms tubulins are encoded by a gene family. We have determined the complete nucleotide sequences coding for the 1 and 2 tubulins of Drosophila melanogaster and the 2 tubulin of D. hydei, and found these insect tubulins to be highly conserved and like tubulins of other organisms. This is discussed with reference to the possible functional domains of these proteins. — The 1 tubulin gene of Drosophila is constitutively expressed, whereas the 2 tubulin is expressed specifically in the testes. In D. melanogaster the amino acid sequences of these proteins are 95% homologous, differing at only 25 positions. In the testes the 2 tubulin participates in different microtubules as shown by genetic analysis (Kemphues et al. 1982). Interestingly, all of the amino acids characteristic of the testis-specific 2 tubulin are also present in the corresponding gene of D. hydei. Of special interest is the high degree of conservation of the carboxy-terminal domain in these functionally equivalent tubulins. 相似文献

Summary Meiotic pairing in Triticum turgidum cv. Ma (4x) with a mean chiasmata frequency of 27.16 per cell was compared with chiasmata frequencies in its hybrids with several triticale strains, Chinese Spring wheat and its addition lines for Imperial rye chromosomes 4R and 6R. In hybrids between Ma and x Triticosecale cv. Rosner the chiasmata frequency was marginally reduced by an average of 1.25%, by 8.8% in hybrids with x Triticosecale cv. DRIRA HH and by 6.7% with DRIRA EE (lacking 90% telomeric heterochromatin from chromosome arm 7RL). In pentaploid hybrids between Ma and T. aestivum cv. Chinese Spring the reduction was an average of 10.30%, while addition lines with rye chromosome 6R reduced chiasmata frequencies by an average of 7.4% and rye addition line for 4R showed the greatest depression in chiasmata frequency in hybrids by a 25.04% reduction.

The purified isopropylmalate synthase of Alcaligenes eutrophus H 16 reacted with the following -keto acids and acyl-coenzyme A derivatives (in the sequence of decreasing affinities): -ketoisovalerate, -keto-n-valerate, -ketobutyrate and pyruvate; acetyl-CoA, propionyl-CoA, butyryl-CoA. malonyl-CoA, valeryl-CoA, and crotonyl-CoA. -Ketoisocaproate, however, is a strong inhibitor of the enzyme. All reactions catalyzed by isopropylmalate synthase were inhibited to the same extent by the endproduct l-leucine. the substrate saturation curves of -ketoisovalerate or other -keto acids and of acetyl-coenzyme A or other acyl-CoA derivatives had intermediary plateau regions; the Hill coefficient alternated between n

-values higher and lower than 1.0, indicating changes from positive to negative and from negative to positive cooperativity for the substrates. The products, isopropylmalate and free coenzyme A, showed competitive inhibition patterns against both substrates (-ketoisovalerate and acetyl-CoA). Free coenzyme A (1 M) inactivated the enzyme irreversibly. The 3-phosphate of coenzyme A and the free carboxyl group of -ketoisovalerate were involved in optimal binding of these substrates, but 3-dephospho-acetyl-coenzyme A and the methylester of -ketoisovalerate were also converted by this enzyme. A CH3–CH2-grouping of the -keto acids seemed to be necessary for binding this substrate.Abbreviations Used CoA
