PKHD1基因的分子特征和生物功能研究进展

PKHD1(polycystic kidney and hepatic disease 1)基因定位于人染色体6p12.2.该基因在基因组内约占500 kb,其中大约含86个外显子.目前所知,其最长ORF至少由67个外显子组成,编码一个由4 074个氨基酸组成的单次跨膜受体样蛋白,被称为纤囊素(fibrocystin/polycystin,FPC).PKHD1是人类常染色体隐性遗传多囊肾病(autosomal recessive polycystic kidneydjsease,ARPICD)的致病基因.在小鼠中,FPC于胚胎期9.5天可在发育中的神经管、气管、原肠管等含管道的器官中被探测到.在人类,FPC在胎肾即开始表达于输尿管芽,并持续表达于输尿管芽分支演变为集合管的整个过程.在成体肾,FPC也主要表达于肾内集合管上皮细胞,其亚细胞定位于上皮细胞的管腔面的顶端,主要分布在细胞纤毛和基体附近.FPC的主要生物功能目前仍未完全明了,新近的研究表明,FPC可能作为一个膜受体样蛋白,将细胞外的信号通过结合与调节TRPP2(PKD2)钙离子介导的通道传递到细胞内,调控体内各管道上皮细胞分化、增殖、极化和移行,从而促成各种牛理管道的形成.     

鼠mPC-1基因的克隆与特性分析

为深入研究人前列腺癌相关基因PC-1的生物功能和进化保守状况,从小鼠肾脏中克隆了全长cDNA序列,命名为mPC-1（GenBank Acc No.AY048852）.mPC-1基因cDNA全长为2 193 bp,主要定位于小鼠染色体3A1-A2区域.mPC-1基因最大开放阅读框编码的蛋白质由224个氨基酸组成,与人PC-1蛋白编码区存在82%的序列一致性,含有coiled-coil结构域和PEST结构域.生物信息学分析表明,由6个外显子组成的mPC-1基因与mD52高度同源,其中,第一外显子代表该基因的特异性序列,实验证据显示mPC-1基因具有自己的启动子,推测mPC-1与小鼠mD52可能是重叠基因.对小鼠20种组织器官和不同发育阶段的胚胎组织cDNA的RT-PCR检测证实,该基因主要在前列腺、肾和眼组织中表达,在胃和平滑肌中有少量表达,在其他组织中表达很弱或不表达.而mD52基因则几乎广泛存在于小鼠的各个组织器官中,因此,两个基因虽然序列上高度重叠却是独立调控的.综上所述,mPC-1基因可能是一个与人PC-1基因结构功能类似的新基因.     

Neuronatin基因研究进展

Neuronatin(Nnat)是最近克隆的脑特异表达的新基因,在大脑发育过程中被选择性地剪接.人Nnat基因全长3 973 bp,含有3个外显子和2个内含子.Nnat mRNA有α和β两种剪接形式,分别编码81个和54个氨基酸,两者具有同一相位的开放阅读框架,差别在于β形式中间的外显子被剪切掉.人Nnat是单拷贝基因,定位于染色体20q11.2～12.小鼠Nnat基因定位于2号染色体末端.该基因是印记基因(imprinted gene),仅在父本来源的等位基因表达,而母本来源的等位基因则被甲基化不能表达.该基因在胚胎期及出生后早期大量表达,而在成年和衰老动物大脑中表达明显降低,因此推测该基因与大脑的发育和分化密切相关.成年动物中垂体前叶是Nnat mRNA唯一强表达的地方.推测其蛋白质产物具有疏水N端和亲水C端,是跨膜蛋白,其确切功能尚属未知.

5-Aza-CdR对胶质瘤细胞生长及LRRC4基因异常甲基化的影响

LRRC4是一个新发现的胶质瘤抑瘤基因,它在多种胶质瘤细胞系和胶质瘤组织表达缺失或下调,前期研究结果表明胶质瘤细胞和组织中LRRC4的编码区未发生突变、缺失或重排．为了获得LRRC4作为胶质瘤抑瘤基因的进一步证据,采用去甲基化制剂5-Aza-CdR处理LRRC4表达缺失的SF126和SF767胶质瘤细胞,MSP和RT-PCR检测表明,LRRC4的启动子在表达缺失的SF126和SF767细胞存在完全的甲基化,而5-Aza-CdR能逆转LRRC4启动子的甲基化状态,恢复LRRC4的表达．MTT法测定显示,5-Aza-CdR使SF126和SF767胶质瘤细胞增殖受到明显抑制,并呈时间和剂量的依赖性．同时流式细胞仪检测显示,5-Aza-CdR使SF126和SF767胶质瘤细胞周期阻滞于G0/G1期．因此,5-Aza-CdR能抑制胶质瘤细胞SF126和SF767增殖并干扰其细胞周期,LRRC4启动子异常甲基化是其在胶质瘤细胞中表达缺失的重要机制,5-Aza-CdR能逆转LRRC4基因的甲基化,恢复LRRC4的表达,为LRRC4作为胶质瘤去甲基化治疗的靶标提供了科学依据．     

白菜CesA基因家族鉴定及表达模式分析

为探究CesA基因家族在白菜生长发育及纤维素合成过程中的作用机制,该文通过生物信息学的方法,以白菜的全基因组序列为研究区域,进行理化特征、基因结构、进化特征、保守基序及结构域、顺式作用元件和组织表达等鉴定分析。结果表明:(1)共鉴定出16个编码纤维素合成酶亚基的CesA基因,该家族成员所编码蛋白的理论等电点为4.76～9.12,相对分子量为17.76～122.67 kD,长度为153～1 089 aa。(2)15个基因不均匀地分布于白菜的7条染色体上,Bra036008定位于scaffold上。(3)大部分成员包含4～14个外显子,1～11个保守基序。(4)该家族具有保守的DDD-QXXRW 保守功能域。(5)该家族编码蛋白主要分布在质膜上,二级结构以无规则卷曲与α-螺旋为主,多数成员都含有CesA蛋白典型的N端、C端和跨膜区。(6)CesA基因在茎中表达量相对较高,其中Bra011865、Bra023952和Bra029874在茎、叶、花中显著表达。该研究结果为后续深入研究CesA基因功能以及白菜生长发育研究奠定了基础。     

苏云金芽胞杆菌幕虫亚种晶胞粘连现象与晶体蛋白基因cry26Aa所在质粒有关

苏云金芽胞杆菌幕虫亚种T02菌株的伴胞晶体在芽胞外壁内侧形成,呈现晶胞粘连的现象。在此菌株中克隆了cry26Aa和cry28Aa两个基因,并对晶胞粘连现象与质粒的相关性做了系统研究。通过消除幕虫亚种T02菌株的质粒,得到了仅消除cry26Aa所在质粒的菌株BMB1151和无质粒的菌株BMB1152。通过穿梭载体将cry26Aa和cry28Aa两个基因分别和同时转化无质粒突变株BMB1152并表达,形成的晶体与芽胞独立存在不能粘连,表明在幕虫亚种染色体背景下仅仅cry的表达不能形成晶胞粘连现象,从而推断晶胞粘连现象可能与幕虫亚种两个基因所在的质粒有关;进一步的研究发现将cry26Aa在仅消除cry26Aa所在质粒的突变株BMB1151中表达,形成的晶体与芽胞也分别独立存在不能粘连,从而进一步推断幕虫亚种晶胞粘连现象与cry26Aa所在质粒有关。

SNF2家族新成员Ercc6l的cDNA克隆与表达分析(英)

SNF2家族蛋白在基因组复制、修复与表达中具有重要作用. 报道了SNF2家族新成员Ercc6l (excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation group 6-like)的cDNA克隆、特性与表达分析.通过表达序列标签（EST）搜索和组装,获得了cDNA全长4 002 bp的新基因Ercc6l(GenBank Acc.No AY172688),然后通过RT-PCR在小鼠胚胎心脏成功克隆了该基因.Ercc6l在小鼠基因组中由两个外显子和一个内含子组成,定位于X染色体,最大开放阅读框（ORF）编码一个含1 240个氨基酸的假定蛋白质.该假定蛋白质含有SNF2蛋白的8个保守基序（SNF2结构域）.通过与SNF2家族各亚家族的成员进行多重比对,初步确认Ercc6l属于ERCC6亚家族成员.将Ercc6l编码区克隆到pEGFP-C3然后转染HeLa,3T3 和B16细胞,融合蛋白主要定位于胞浆.BLAST搜索检索出69条小鼠EST与Ercc6l同源,这些EST主要来自胚胎和肿瘤组织.对小鼠不同发育时期的多种组织进行RT-PCR,发现Ercc6l在胚胎期强表达,出生产后表达显著下调.这些结果提示Ercc6l在胚胎发育和肿瘤发生中可能具有重要作用.

scabrous Modifies Epithelial Cell Adhesion and Extends the Range of Lateral Signalling during Development of the Spaced Bristle Pattern in Drosophila

The role of scabrous (sca) in the evenly spaced bristle pattern of Drosophila is explored. Loss-of-function of sca results in development of an excess of bristles. Segregation of alternately spaced bristle precursors and epidermal cells from a group of equipotential cells relies on lateral inhibition mediated by Notch and Delta (Dl). In this process, presumptive bristle precursors inhibit the neural fate of neighbouring cells, causing them to adopt the epidermal fate. We show that Dl, a membrane-bound ligand for Notch, can inhibit adjacent cells, in direct contact with the precursor, in the absence of Sca. In contrast, inhibition of cells not adjacent to the precursor requires, in addition, Sca, a secreted molecule with a fibrinogen-related domain. Over-expression of Sca in a wild-type background, leads to increased spacing between bristles, suggesting that the range of signalling has been increased. scabrous acts nonautonomously, and we present evidence that, during bristle precursor segregation, Sca is required to maintain the normal adhesive properties of epithelial cells. The possible effects of such changes on the range of signalling are discussed. We also show that the sensory organ precursors extend numerous fine cytoplasmic extensions bearing Dl molecules, and speculate on a possible role for these structures during signalling.     

32种杜鹃花属植物在迁地保育条件下的自交研究

迁地保育条件下的杜鹃花属植物自交可育性一直缺乏系统的比较研究,该文对5亚属13亚组32种杜鹃花属植物的自交进行了数据采集与分析,初步揭示了迁地保育条件下杜鹃花属植物自交育性特征。结果表明:(1)自交可育与不育是杜鹃花属植物有性生殖中的两个并存现象,自交能育型种类或多于不育型。在受试的32种杜鹃花中,自交不育型10种、弱可育型5种、可育型7种、高可育型10种,其中27种的自交育性为首次报道,涵盖包括杜鹃亚属杜鹃组(sect.Rhododendron)和马银花亚属(subgen.Azaleastrum)及常绿杜鹃亚属(subgen.Hymenanthes)中银叶杜鹃亚组(subsect.Argyrophylla)等5个亚组在内的未被研究的类群。(2)通过与自然授粉有关育性指标的比较,发现不同种类的自交可育性指标有大幅度降低及增高这两类截然不同的现象,从而提出了自交可能是部分杜鹃花属植物的适应策略,或者对不利环境及其媒介条件的主动响应。(3)在云锦杜鹃亚组(subsect.Fortunea)这个被认为最原始的杜鹃花类群中,具备从自交不育到高可育的所有类型,并可能由此奠定整个杜鹃花属的遗传基础,而类群与种类分布的不同区域气候环境长期直接的或通过影响传粉媒介间接的作用,则可能是最终塑造该属植物自交育性多样化的外部动力。(4)该文还依据有关自交的研究结果,对杜鹃花属植物的迁地保育、育种、相关学科发展进行了讨论,并认为后合子期败育的理论不能完美地解释自交不能坐果的现象,而多倍体似不会导致自交不育。     

Astragalar morphology of late Eocene anthropoids from the Fayum Depression (Egypt) and the origin of catarrhine primates

The phylogenetic relationships of the late Eocene anthropoids Catopithecus browni and Proteopithecus sylviae are currently a matter of debate, with opinion divided as to whether these taxa are stem or crown anthropoids. The phylogenetic position of Catopithecus is of particular interest, for, unlike the highly generalized genus Proteopithecus, this taxon shares apomorphic dental and postcranial features with more derived undoubted catarrhines that appear in the same region 1-2 Ma later. If these apomorphies are homologous and Catopithecus is a stem catarrhine, the unique combination of plesiomorphic and apomorphic features preserved in this anthropoid would have important implications for our understanding of the crown anthropoid morphotype and the pattern of morphological character transformations that occurred during the early phases of stem catarrhine evolution.Well-preserved astragali referrable to Proteopithecus, Catopithecus, and the undoubted early Oligocene stem catarrhine Aegyptopithecus have provided additional morphological evidence that allows us to further evaluate competing hypotheses of interrelationships among Eocene-Oligocene Afro-Arabian anthropoids. Qualitative observations and multivariate morphometric analyses reveal that the astragalar morphology of Proteopithecus is very similar to that of early Oligocene parapithecids and living and extinct small-bodied platyrrhines, and strengthens the hypothesis that the morphological pattern shared by these taxa is primitive within crown Anthropoidea. In contrast, Catopithecus departs markedly from the predicted crown anthropoid astragalar morphotype and shares a number of apomorphic features (e.g., deep cotylar fossa, laterally projecting fibular facet, trochlear asymmetry, mediolaterally wide astragalar head) with Aegyptopithecus and Miocene-Recent catarrhines. The evidence from the astragalus complements other independent data from the dentition, humerus and femur of Catopithecus that support this taxon's stem catarrhine status, and we continue to maintain that oligopithecines are stem catarrhines that constitute the sister group of a clade containing propliopithecines and Miocene-Recent catarrhines.     

贵州楼梯草属(荨麻科)植物种类组成及分布格局

荨麻科(Urticaceae)楼梯草属(Elatostema)植物种类繁多、形态相似、关系密切,是植物分类学界公认的疑难分类群之一。贵州省地理位置特殊,水热条件较好,喀斯特地貌复杂多变,是我国楼梯草属植物的重要分布区,但一直以来种类不清,分类不明。为进一步理清资源本底及分布特征,该文通过近年调查和查阅资料形成贵州楼梯草属植物名录,分析其物种组成,并基于分布地及海拔数据分析空间分布特征,以期为贵州植物多样性保护以及区系研究提供进一步的基础资料。结果表明:全省赤车类群植物有1组1系7种,楼梯草类群有5组20系69种,分别占全国种类的17.94%、20.78%。楼梯草属植物共76种,其中13种为贵州楼梯草属特有种。在地理分布上,赤车类群主要见于黔北-黔东-黔南部分地区,沿赤水、桐梓、习水、正安-江口、印江-剑河-都匀、荔波-望谟一线,总体分布反呈“C”状; 楼梯草类群植物主要分布在黔北-黔东-黔南-黔西南大部分地区,沿赤水、正安、江口-七星关、开阳、施秉、黄平-兴义、兴仁、安龙、贞丰、望谟、独山、荔波一带分布较多,总体分布呈“三”字状; 楼梯草属特有植物总体呈点状、不均匀分布。该属植物主要分布在海拔600～1 000 m的范围内。     

膜蕨科植物rbcL基因的适应性进化和共进化分析

膜蕨科植物是薄囊蕨类中种类最多的科,主要分布在潮湿的热带地区,拥有陆生、附生、半附生和攀生等多种生态型。为进一步了解膜蕨科植物辐射式物种分化的分子适应机制,该研究在时间框架下采用位点模型对膜蕨科植物rbc L基因的进化式样进行分析。结果表明:共鉴定出6个氨基酸正选择位点(125I、227L、231A、258F、304S和351L),其中位点304S位于环六上,对维持Rubisco功能有重要作用。此外,还计算了Rubisco大亚基内部氨基酸位点之间的共进化关系,共检测出39组(35个氨基酸)共进化位点,其中位点在α螺旋上的占46%,在β折叠上的占14%。膜蕨科植物rbc L基因这种复杂的进化式样可能与其起源较早有关。鉴于此,基于UCLD分子钟模型对膜蕨科植物的分化时间进行了估计,结果显示膜蕨科植物首次发生分歧的时间在三叠纪早期,瓶蕨属和膜蕨属的分歧时间分别发生在侏罗纪早期和白垩纪晚期,并且得出陆生生态型是其它生态型进化的基础,推测最近几次最热事件可能对物种分化的形成产生一定的作用。该研究结果对认识膜蕨科植物如何应对被子植物兴起所导致的陆地生态系统改变具重要意义。     

37种杜鹃花属植物在迁地保育下的自然授粉研究

该文对主要栽培在四川都江堰龙池基地(海拔1 700 m)及玉堂基地(海拔700 m)和峨眉山生物试验站(海拔805 m)的5亚属15亚组37种杜鹃花属植物的自然授粉开展了为期4 a的数据采集与研究。以绿苗率(Gs)为主要指标,绿苗系数(Gc)、坐果率(St)和单位可育种子数(Sf)为辅助指标,初步揭示了迁地保育条件下杜鹃花属植物自然授粉的育性适应及其特征。结果表明:(1)除黄花杜鹃(Rhododendron lutescens)未形成种子外,受试的其他36个杜鹃花种类均能在其保育地点上不同程度地完成从种子(幼苗)到种子的生命循环,其中高可育型24种、可育型11种、弱育型1种。(2)上述4项指标,尤其是保育条件与原生地条件下同种的绿苗率、绿苗系数和单位能育种子数比较,均能不同程度地反映育性适合度的差异情况。(3)在上述具有不同程度可育性的36种杜鹃花中,有24种有不同程度的败育现象,其成因可能为不同程度的自交和花期重叠的同亚组到不同亚组异种间自然交配所引起的遗传不适,由于遗传选择的限制或胁迫,这种现象在一些开花个体有限的种类中尤为突出,因此保证最小存活种群(the minimum viable population,MVP)对于该属植物迁地保育至关重要。(4)杜鹃花属的特定种类可能存在一个受种性制约的单位种子数量幅度和上限,即不同的类群与种类的单位种子数量存在差异。(5)为探索自交和种间杂交提供了认识起点和参照,并提出了有关杜鹃花属植物可育性综合评价的指标体系和方法。     

Paleosols and paleoenvironments of the middle Miocene,Maboko Formation,Kenya

The middle Miocene (15 Ma) Maboko Formation of Maboko Island and Majiwa Bluffs, southwestern Kenya, has yielded abundant fossils of the earliest known cercopithecoid monkey (Victoriapithecus macinnesi), and of a kenyapithecine hominoid (Kenyapithecus africanus), as well as rare proconsuline (Simiolus leakeyorum, cf. Limnopithecus evansi) and oreopithecine apes (Mabokopithecus clarki, M. pickfordi), and galagids (Komba winamensis). Specific habitat preferences can be interpreted from large collections of primate fossils in different kinds of paleosols (pedotypes). Fossiliferous drab-colored paleosols with iron-manganese nodules (Yom pedotype) are like modern soils of seasonally waterlogged depressions (dambo). Their crumb structure and abundant fine root-traces, as well as scattered large calcareous rhizoconcretions indicate former vegetation of seasonally wet, wooded grassland. Other fossiliferous paleosols are evidence of nyika bushland (Ratong), and early-successional riparian woodland (Dhero). No fossils were found in Mogo paleosols interpreted as saline scrub soils. Very shallow calcic horizons (in Yom, Ratong, and Mogo paleosols) and Na-montmorillonite (in Mogo) are evidence of dry paleoclimate (300-500 mm MAP=mean annual precipitation). This is the driest paleoclimate and most open vegetation yet inferred as a habitat for any Kenyan Miocene apes or monkeys. Victoriapithecus was abundant in dambo wooded grassland (Yom) and riparian woodland (Dhero), a distribution like that of modern vervet monkeys. Kenyapithecus ranged through all these paleosols, but was the most common primate in nyika bushland paleosols (Ratong), comparable to baboons and macaques today. Mabokopithecus was virtually restricted to riparian woodland paleosols (Dhero), and Simiolus had a similar, but marginally wider, distribution. Habitat preferences of Mabokopithecus and Simiolus were like those of modern colobus monkeys and mangabeys. A single specimen of Komba was found in dambo wooded grassland paleosol (Yom), a habitat more like that of the living Senegal bushbaby than of rainforest galagids. A shift to non-forest habitats may explain the terrestrial adaptations of Victoriapithecus, basal to the cercopithecid radiation, and of Kenyapithecus, basal to the hominoid radiation. Both taxa are distinct from earlier Miocene arboreal proconsulines, oreopithecines and galagids.     

Stratigraphy, artefact industries and hominid associations for Sterkfontein, member 5

A revised stratigraphy for the early hominid site of Sterkfontein (Gauteng Province, South Africa) reveals a complex distribution of infills in the main excavation area between 2.8 and 1.4 m.y.a, as well as deposits dating to the mid to late Pleistocene. New research now shows that the Member 4 australopithecine breccia (2.8-2.6 Ma) extends further west than was previously thought, while a late phase of Member 4 is recognized in a southern area. The artefact-bearing breccias were defined sedimentologically as Member 5, but one supposed part of these younger breccias, the StW 53 infill, lacks in situ stone tools, although it does appear to post-date 2.6 Ma when artefacts first appear in the archaeological record. The StW 53 hominid, previously referred to Homo habilis, is here argued to be Australopithecus. The first artefact-bearing breccia of Member 5 is the Oldowan Infill, estimated at 2-1.7 Ma. It occupies a restricted distribution in Member 5 east and contains an expedient, flake-based tool industry associated with a few fossils of Paranthropos robustus. An enlarged cave opening subsequently admitted one or more Early Acheulean infills associated in Member 5 west with Homo ergaster. The artefacts attest to a larger site accumulation between ca. 1.7 and 1.4 Ma, with more intensive use of quartzite over quartz and a subtle but important shift to large flakes and heavier-duty tools. The available information on palaeoenvironments is summarized, showing an overall change from tropical to sub-tropical gallery forest, forest fringe and woodland conditions in Member 4 to more open woodland and grassland habitats in the later units, but with suggestions of a wet localized topography in the Paranthropus -bearing Oldowan Infill.     

基于分子证据确认秦岭藤属与驼峰藤属(夹竹桃科)的系统位置

秦岭藤属(Biondia Schltr.)是中国特有属,约13种,驼峰藤属(Merrillanthus Chun&Tsiang)是仅在我国与柬埔寨分布的单种属,目前两个属均被归并到白前属(Vincetoxicum Wolf),由于取样和系统发育分析尚存一些欠缺,因此其系统位置和归属尚需进一步确认。该文使用2个核糖体基因序列片段(ITS、ETS)、5个叶绿体基因序列片段(psbA-trnH、trnG、trnL、trnL-F、trnT-L),以及二者的合并数据,重建娃儿藤亚族(Tylophorinae)(包含属的模式秦岭藤[B.chinensis Schltr.=V.shaanxiense(Schltr.)
