The new peptide antibiotics have been obtained from the culture filtrate of a streptomycete, strain 248-Sq2, isolated from a soil sample collected at Nagano Prefecture, Japan.On the basis of taxonomic studies, the producing organisms is designated as Streptomyces cirratus. Two active principles are named cirratiomycin A and B.These antibiotics exhibit a narrow range of activities against Lactobacillus casei and some strains of Streptococcus and Mycobacterium. 相似文献

Thirteen new congenic lines have been produced which have chromosome-7 segments introduced from different strains onto the C57BL/10Sn background. Sublines B10.P(61NX)C,D, and E received chromosome-7 segments from P/J, B10.CE(62NX) from CE/J, B10.SEC(64NX)A,C,E, and F from SEC/1Re, B10.SM(65NX) from SM/J, B10.WB(66NX) from WB/Re, B10.A(67NX) from A/SnGrf, B10.AKR(68NX) from AKR/SnGrf, and B10.K(69NX) from C3H.K. Isograft testing indicated that three sublines, B10.P(61NX)D, B10.CE(62NX)B, and B10.WB(66NX)B are histoisogenic, i.e., histocompatible within each line. With the exception of B10.A(67NX), B10.AK(68NX), and B10.K(69NX), which have not been isografted, the remaining sublines showed residual heterozygosity on isografting. The three histoisogenic lines have undergone F1 testing and have been found to possess theH-4

correspond to tryptic bands I (PRT-6A) and I (PRT-6B). Twenty-four laboratory strains from the United States showed the phenotype PRT-1A, PRT-3A, and PRT-2A. Of laboratory strains established in Europe, 6 showed PRT-1A, PRT-3A, and PRT-2A, and 10 had PRT-1B, PRT-3A, and PRT-2A bands. Most wild mice around the world and their descendants showed the phenotype PRT-1B, PRT-3B, and PRT-2A. Only the phenotype of M. m. brevirostris was PRT-1A, PRT-3A, and PRT-2A, which was the same as most laboratory inbred strains. PRT-2B was observed mainly in Japanese (M. m. molossinus) and Korean (M. m. yamashinai) wild mice. PRT-6B was detected only in Mus spicilegus and Mus caroli, but all other mice including wild populations and laboratory strains showed PRT-6A. New biochemical phenotypes such as PRT-2C and PRT-3C were also found in this study. 相似文献

Analysis of mouse Tcr genes has previously defined at least five different Tcra-V haplotypes among inbred strains of mice. For mice of the Tcra-V
b
haplotype, including C57BL/10 (B10), T-cell expression of the Tcra-V11 gene subfamily can be detected with a monoclonal antibody, 1.F2. In the course of further characterizing the specificity of 1.F2, we found that it fails to recognize Tcra-V11-expressing T-cell hybrids derived from the B10 congenic strain, B10.A(18R)/SgIcr. Moreover, staining analysis indicated that the Va11 epitope recognized by 1.F2 is not expressed by peripheral T cells from several different B10.A(18R) colonies with the exception of that at the Research Institute of Scripps Clinic. Nucleotide sequences were determined for cDNA representing rearranged Tcra-V11 genes from two independent, B10.A(18R)/SgIcr derived T-cell hybrids. The two Tcra-V11 gene segments were identical and the predicted amino acid sequence differed by at least five residues from Tcra-V11 sequences previously obtained from B10.A mice. Southern blot analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) associated with Tcra-V11, as well as Tcra-V
1
, subfamily genes revealed that the B10.A(18R) mouse has inherited Tcra-V
a
alleles rather than the expected Tcra-V
b
alleles from the B10 strain. RFLP analysis of the Rib-1 locus, located in close proximity to the Tcra locus on chromosome 14, showed that B10.A(18R) carries the Rib-1
b
allele from B10. These results indicate that the B10.A(18R) mouse has inherited a recombinant chromosome 14 with a recombination event having occured between the Rib-1 locus and the Tcra-V
a
gene subfamilies examined. Inheritance of Tcra-V
a
alleles in B10.A(18R) probably originated from strain 129/J which breeding records show was used in the first cross with B10.A in the production of B10.A(18R) and which we found exhibits Tcra-V11

Neonatal transplantation tolerance to the products of theH-2
b
complex was induced in B10.A (H-2
a
) mice. On the basis of the survival of skin allografts it was found that antigens determined by theD region of theH-2
b
complex (of the B10.A(2R) strain) were most easily overcome and that tolerance to the products of theD end of theH-2 complex (of the B10.A(4R) strain) was also easy to induce. The antigens produced by theK end ofH-2 (of the B10.A(5R) and B10.A(3R) strains) represented a stronger incompatibility barrier and a difference in the entireH-2
b
complex caused strongest resistance to tolerance induction. When tolerance to the products of the entireH-2
b
complex was induced in newborn B10.A mice, and the neonatally treated animals were grafted simultaneously with five different grafts, those disparate at theK end ofH-2 and in the entireH-2 region were rejected in some animals, while the grafts disparate at theD end of H-2 remained intact in the same mice. No dependence on theI-J subregion was observed in this system. Furthermore, tolerance was more easily inducible in male than in female B10.A mice. 相似文献

Population growth and life table demography of the predatory rotifer A. girodi using spineless Brachionus calyciflorus and spined Brachionus havanaensis as prey at densities of 1, 2, 4 and 8 ind. ml–1 at 25°C were studied. Regardless of the prey species, the population of A. girodi increased with increasing availability of Brachionus in the medium. At any given prey density, A. girodi fed B. calyciflorus showed consistently better growth than when fed B. havanaensis. The maximum population densities of A. girodi varied from 0.28 to 1.8 ind. ml–1 depending on the prey species and the density. The rate of population increase observed in population growth studies varied from 0.17 to 0.43 day–1 when fed B. calyciflorus and 0.09 to 0.27 day–1 when fed B. havanaensis. Male population of A. girodi was closely related to female density. The lowest average lifespan was observed for A. girodi when fed B. havanaensis at 1 ind. ml–1, while the converse was the case when fed B. calyciflorus at comparable prey concentration. Net reproductive rates varied from 16 to 26 offspring female–1 lifespan–1 depending on the prey species and concentration. Generation time of A. girodi decreased with increasing food concentrations for both the prey species. The rates of population increase obtained from life table demography were lower for A. girodi when fed B. havanaensis than when fed B. calyciflorus. 相似文献

The purpose of our work was to observe the influence of probiotic preparation BioPlus 2B on average daily gains of weaned
pigs, feed efficiency and to evaluate some metabolic indices. The weaned pigs, at the age of 42 days, were included into the
trial and divided into four groups. Pigs in groups A (n = 5) and B (n = 4) received BioPlus 2B also before weaning. Only group A received BioPlus 2B, at the concentration of 3.2 × 109 CFU per kg of feed, after weaning continually. Groups C (n = 5) and D (n = 4) did not receive BioPlus 2B until the start of the trial, but group C was given BioPlus 2B at the same concentration
as group A during the experiment. Blood samples for determination of metabolic indices were collected at the start of experiment,
i.e. on 42nd day of pigs life, and then on 56th, 70th, 84th and 91st days of pigs life. The following biochemical indices were evaluated within the trial: serum levels of total proteins, albumin,
urea, total cholesterol and total lipids. Total serum protein level (p < 0.0001) and serum albumin level (p = 0.0024) in groups A and B were significantly higher in comparison with groups C and D on day 56 of pigs life. Serum urea
level in group D was significantly (p = 0.049) higher than in group A on 70th day of pigs life. Serum level of total cholesterol in group B on day 56 and 84 of pigs life was significantly (p = 0.0004) higher than in groups C and D. Total serum lipid level was significantly (p < 0.05) higher in B group compared to other groups on 56th, 70th, 84th days of pigs life. Average daily gains (ADG) in A group, even if non-significantly, were about 10% better than in groups
B, C, D between 57th and 77th days of pigs life. ADG in groups A and B were 14% better in comparison with that in groups C and D between 78th and 91st days of pigs life (p = 0.036). The best feed efficiency in the trial was in group A, approximately 13%, 16% and 21% better than that in the groups
B, C and D, repectively.

The incidence of spontaneous lung tumors in relation toH-2, the major histocompatibility complex, was studied in congenic strains of mice on the B10-, A-, and C3H-backgrounds.The most relevant results were obtained with congenic strains on the B10-background.

. The differences between these two groups were highly significant.Analysis of the results obtained with the recombinant strains indicated that genes in theIB region determined the susceptibility to the development of spontaneous lung tumors.The comparison of the results in the B10, B10.A and A strain has shown that the incidence in the B10.A strain carrying the haplotypeH-2
a
derived from the highly susceptible strain A (H-2
a
) on the resistant background strain B10 (H-2
b
) is intermediate between these two strains. This shows, that other genes of the background are also involved.The lung tumor incidence in (B10.A × B10)F1 hybrids was intermediate between the two parental strains.The results obtained in the strains C3H with the haplotypeH-2
k
, C3H.B10 with the haplotypeH-2

and C3H.NB with the haplotypeH-2

, were inconclusive because of the early mortality which occurred among the animals of these strains. The strains A (H-2a) and A.SW (H-H-2

Cell-mediated lymphocytotoxicity was generated in four strain combinations differing only by the cell-surface expression of the class II E molecule controlled by the H-2 complex. The four combinations were: B10.D2(R107) anti-B10.A(3R), B10.A(4R) anti-B10.A(2R), B10.GD anti-B10.D2(R101), and B10.S(7R) anti-B10.S(9R). In all four of these combinations, the stimulator expresses E molecules on the cell surface, while the responder does not. The cytolytic T lymphocytes generated in the B10.D2(R107) anti-B10.A(3R) and B10.A(4R) anti-B10.A(2R) combinations reacted not only with the stimulator but also with strains that do not express cell-surface E molecules, in particular, strains carrying the H-2
f
and H-2
q
haplotypes. The cross-reactivity with E-negative strains could be blocked by monoclonal antibodies specific for the Af or Aq molecules but not by antibodies recognizing determinants on E or class I (K) molecules. The anti-H-2f cross-reactivity could be inhibited by H-2
q
cold targets and, reciprocally, the anti-H-2q reactivity could be blocked by H-2
f
cold targets. These findings are interpreted as indicating that the cytolytic T lymphocytes stimulated by E molecules can recognize and lyse cells lacking E molecules but expressing A molecules. The observed E-A cross-reactivity supports the notion of structural and functional relatedness between the A and E molecules and suggests a common evolutionary origin of the A- and E-encoding loci. 相似文献

To determine the locus in theH-2 complex that affects susceptibility to the development of pulmonary adenomas in mice,H-2 congenic and recombinant strains of mice with A/Wy, BALB/c, C3H, and B10 backgrounds were subjected to treatment with urethane.
The average number and the incidence of adenoma foci were recorded five months after the treatment. InH-2 congenic strains on the A/Wy background, the average number of adenoma foci per mouse was significantly higher in mice of
the A/Wy, A/J, and A-Tla
b
(H-2
a
) strains than in A.BY (H-2
b
) mice. In BALB/c and C3H congenic strains, the strains carrying theH-2
k
haplotype were more susceptible than those carrying theH-2
b
haplotype. InH-2 congenic strains on the B 10 background, the average number and incidence of foci was also higher in haplotypesa, h2, k, andj than in haplotypesb, s, f, d, r, h4, i3, i5, and4. The average numbers of adenoma foci in (A/J × A.BY)F1 (H-2
a
/H-2
b
) and (B10 × B10.A)F1 (H-2
b
/H-2
a
) were intermediate between the numbers in the parental strains. In [B10.A (4R) × B10.A (3R)]F1 (H-2
h4
/H-2
i3
) and [B10.A (4R) × B10.A (5R)]F1 (H-2
h4
/H-2
i5
), the numbers of adenoma foci were higher than in resistant parental recombinants. These patterns of response to urethane
matched the patterns of the immune response to lactate dehydrogenase-B (LDH-B) and immunoglobulin gamma 2a (IgG2a) proteins.
These differences between mice in their susceptibility to the development of pulmonary adenomas is probably due to the polymorphism
of the class II genes in theH-2 complex. 相似文献

Densities ofAmblyomma americanum (L.) onBos indicus, B. taurus andB. indicus x B. taurus cattle are compared over a 3-year period, and the growth rate (rate of increase or decrease) of parasitic tick populations on each cattle genotype is estimated.Average log10 densities of parasiticA. americanum larvae are significantly (P=0.05) lower onB. indicus cattle than onB. taurus andB. indicus x B. taurus cattle. Average log densities of nymphal and adult ticks onB. taurus cattle are significantly higher than onB. indicus cattle but neither cattle genotype differs in this regard fromB. indicus x B. taurus cattle.Estimated annual tick population growth rates (log10) for parasiticA. americanum are positive onB. taurus cattle (+0.84 larvae, +0.09 nymphs, +0.22 adults calf–1 year–1), but are negative onB. indicus (–0.18 nymphs, –0.14 adults calf–1 year–1) andB. indicus x B. taurus cattle (–0.45 larvae, –0.24 nymphs, –0.14 adults calf–1 year–1). Populations of parasitic larvae were not detected onB. indicus cattle. 相似文献

Experiments were carried out to investigate interspecific interactions between the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis and two harmful algal bloom (HAB) species using single and mixed culture methods. B. plicatilis populations and the growth of two algae were compared at different algal cell densities. The results demonstrate that B. plicatilis obtained sufficient nutrition from Alexandrium tamarense to support net population increase. When exposed to a density of 8 × 104 cells ml−1
A. tamarense, the number of B. plicatilis increased faster than it did when exposed to other four algal densities (16 × 104, 24 × 104, 32 × 104, and 40 × 104 cells ml−1). Cell densities of A. tamarense decreased due to the grazing of B. plicatilis. In contrast, Heterosigma akashiwo had an adverse effect on the B. plicatilis population and its growth was largely unaffected by rotifer grazing. In this case, the B. plicatilis population decreased and H. akashiwo grew at a rate similar to that of a control without addition of rotifers. Mixed culture experiments showed that A. tamarense could partly counteract the effect of H. akashiwo in limiting the rate of population increase of rotifer. In addition, the effect of different initial cell densities on interspecific
competition between A. tamarense and H. akashiwo in mixed culture(s) was also investigated. The results show that A. tamarense competed very successfully when the inoculation proportions of A. tamarense and H. akashiwo were 40:5 and 40:30.

Twenty-five psychrophilic yeasts were isolated from the soil of Roopkund Lake, Himalayas, India. Two colony morphotypes were
identified and representatives of ‘morphotype 1’ were identified as Cryptococcus gastricus. Representatives of ‘morphotype 2’, namely 3AT, 4A, 4B and Rup4B, showed similar phenotypic properties and are identical with respect to the nucleotide sequence of the
ITS1-5.8S rRNA gene-ITS2 region and D1/D2 domain of the 26S rRNA gene. The sequence of D1/D2 domain of 3AT shows 97.6–98.8% similarity with Rhodotorula
psychrophila CBS10440T, Rhodotorula
glacialis CBS10437T and Rhodotorula
psychrophenolica CBS10438T and in the neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree strains; 3AT, 4A, 4B and Rup4B form a cluster with Rhodotorula glacialis and Rhodotorula psychrophila. Strains 3AT, 4A, 4B and Rup4B also differ from their nearest phylogenetic relatives in several biochemical characteristics such as in
assimilation of d-galactose, l-sorbose, maltose, citrate, d-glucuronate and creatinine. Thus, based on the phylogenetic analysis and the phenotypic differences 3AT, 4A, 4B and Rup 4B are assigned the status of a new species of Rhodotorula for which the name Rhodotorula himalayensis sp. nov. is proposed with 3AT as the type strain (=CBS10539T =MTCC8336T).
GenBank/EMBL accession numbers for (partial) 18SrRNA gene-ITS1-5.8S rRNA gene-ITS2-26S rRNA gene (partial) sequences of Rhodotorula himalayensis sp. nov. 3AT is AM410635. 相似文献

We have reported that susceptibility to glucocorticoid- and phenytoin-induced cleft palate and glucocorticoid receptor levels in mice are influenced by the H-2 histocompatibility complex on chromosome 17. Phenytoin competes with glucocorticoids for the glucocorticoid receptor and inhibits production of prostaglandins and thromboxanes. In this paper we have investigated whether, as in the case of glucocorticoids, phenytoin receptor levels and phenytoin-induced inhibition of prostaglandins are influenced by H-2 in a variety of mouse tissues. Using congenic strains varying only in the H-2 region, but otherwise having either the A/Wy(A) or B10(B) genetic background, we demonstrate here that phenytoin receptor content in the lung and liver is significantly higher in the strains with H-2
a
(A/Wy and B 10.A) than in their corresponding H-2
b
partners (A.BY and B 10). The H-2 complex also influences phenytoin-induced inhibition of the release of 3H-arachidonic acid and prostaglandin biosynthesis from thymocytes, prelabeled with 3H-arachidonic acid. Thus, these results suggest a similar genetic and biochemical pathway for the teratogenic action of both phenytoin and glucocorticoids. 相似文献

Benzidine staining of starch gels after electrophoresis of sera to which haematin was added revealed polymorphism of haemopexin in sheep, mouflon and goat. In sheep three phenotypes were observed, Hpx A, Hpx AB and Hpx B. Pedigree data support the hypothesis of codominant inheritance from a single locus by two alleles, HpxA and HpxB. Neuraminidase treatment of haemopexin preparations showed that Hpx B covered two variants, B1 and B2, thus indicating genetic control by three alleles (HpxA, HpxB1 and HpxB2). In sheep populations the frequency of HpxB is low. In mouflon, in addition to the two variants that are like those of sheep, absence of haemopexin was observed in some animals, by using starch gel electrophoresis as well as immunoelectrophoresis. In goat, three phenotypes were detected, Hpx A, Hpx AB and Hpx B, differing in migration from those of sheep. Haemopexins of the studied species are heterogeneous. Sialic acid is responsible for electrophoretic heterogeneity of sheep haemopexin. Chemical. composition (amino acid and carbohydrate), molecular weight (56 060) and N-terminal sequence (Leu-Pro-Pro-) of sheep haemopexin were also determined. 相似文献

A range of European habitats was screened by PCR for detection of the oxytetracycline resistance genes otr(A) and otr(B), found in the oxytetracycline-producing strain Streptomyces rimosus. Primers were developed to detect these otr genes in tetracycline-resistant (TcR) streptomycete isolates from environmental samples. Samples were obtained from bulk and rhizosphere soil, manure, activated
sludge and seawater. The majority of TcR streptomycetes originated from bulk and rhizosphere soil. Fewer TcR streptomycetes were isolated from manure and seawater and none from sewage. By PCR, three out of 217 isolates were shown
to contain the otr(A) gene and 13 out of 217 the otr(B) gene. Surprisingly, these genes were detected in taxonomic groups not known as tetracycline-producing strains. The majority
of the otr gene–carrying strains was assigned to S. exfoliatus or S. rochei and originated from all habitats from which TcR streptomycetes were obtained. Our results indicated that the occurrence of otr(A) and otr(B) genes in natural environments was limited and that otr(B), in comparison to otr(A), seemed to be more common. 相似文献

We studied the outcome of competition between a large (Brachionus calyciflorus) and a small (Anuraeopsis fissa) rotifer species at five algal (Scenedesmus acutus) concentrations (0.5 × 106 to 40.5 × 106 cells ml–1) and with varying initial densities in mixed populations (100 to 0% of B. calcyciflorus or A. fissa), the combined initial biomass being 0.2 µg ml–1 in all test jars. Experiments were conducted at 28 ± 1 °C.Regardless of food concentration, B. calcyciflorus showed a greater increase in biomass than A. fissa, peak densities (mean ± standard error) at the lowest food concentration in the controls being 1.34 ± 0.31 µg dry weight ml–1 and 0.82 ± 0.08 dry weight ml–1, respectively. At the lower food concentrations, A. fissa displaced B. calyciflorus and vice versa at the higher food concentrations. At the intermediate food concentrations of 4.5 × 106 cells ml–1, B. calyciflorus outcompeted A. fissa only if its initial population density was three times higher. The rates of population growth in controls varied from 0.792 ± 0.06 d–1 to 1.492 ± 0.13 d–1 for B. calyciflorus and 0.445 ± 0.04 to 0.885 ± 0.01 for A. fissa depending on food level. When both species were introduced together, low food levels favoured higher abundance of A. fissa than B. calyciflorus, suggesting, in nature, it is likely that small Anuraeopsis colonize oligotrophic water bodies more successfully than larger Brachionus. The results also suggest that the outcome of competition depends not only on the size of the competing species and food availability but also on their colonizing density. 相似文献

A.BY, B10.LPa, and B10.129(5M) mice were presensitized in vivo against B10.A(5R) cells and then restimulated in vitro by the same cells in the standard CML assay. The effector cells thus generated lysed not only B10.A(5R), but also C57BL/6 targets, indicating that, in addition to anti-H-2Dd response [measured on the B10.A(5R) targets], response to minor histocompatibility (H) antigens (measured on the C57BL/6 targets) also occurred. The latter response was directed against multiple minor H antigens in the case of the A.BY effectors, and against H-1 and H-3 antigens in the case of B10.129(5M) and B10.LPa effectors, respectively. The sensitization against minor H antigens occurred in the context of H-2Kb H-2Dd antigens, but by testing the response on C57BL/6 targets, only cells reacting with minor H antigens in the context of H-2Kb were assayed. The same effector cells were then tested against H-2b mutant strains, in which theH-2K
b allele was replaced by a mutant one. All three effector types [A.BY, B10.LPa, and B10.129(5M)] behaved in a similar way: they all reacted with theH-2
bg1 mutant to the same degree as withH-2
b, they did not react at all or reacted only weakly with theH-2
bd andH-2
bh mutants, and they reacted moderately or strongly with theH-2
ba mutant. The degree of crossreactivity with the mutants reflects, with one exception, the degree of relatedness of these mutants toH-2
b, as established by other methods. The one exception is theH-2
ba mutant, which is the most unrelated toH-2
b, and yet it crossreacted strongly. Further testing, however, suggested that in this instance the crossreactivity was probably directed against H-2 antigens: the anti-H-2Dd effectors apparently crossreacted with the H-2Kba antigens. This finding is an example of cell-mediated crossreactivity between the products of two differentH-2 genes (H-2K andH-2D). It is also an example of anH-2 mutation generating an antigenic determinant known to be present in another strain. 相似文献

The phage growth limitation (Pgl) system of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) was shown to be specific to φC31 homo-immune phages, and to be absent from the closely related strain Streptomyces Iividans. A 16 kb fragment of S. coelicolor A3(2) DNA was isolated which complemented the Pgl? phenotype of J1501, a pgl mutant derivative of the PgltsS. coelicolor strain M130. The cloned DNA complemented only half of the available pgl mutants, which therefore represented at least two groups, designated Pgl class A and class B strains. It follows that more than one kind of high-frequency genetic event can lead to the Pgl? phenotype. Crosses between class A and class B strains yielded high frequencies of Pgl+ recombinants. Crosses between strains of the same class gave no Pgl+ recombinants. The cloned DNA was altered by deletion or apparent point mutation upon passage through the two class B strains tested, such that it was no longer capable of complementing class A strains. This accumulation of mutations might suggest that the expression of the cloned DNA is toxic to at least some class B strains. The nature of the genetic instability associated with the Pgl system was not detectable by Southern blot analysis. 相似文献
