赖氨酸脱羧酶分子改造及固定化合成1,5-戊二胺研究进展

1,5-戊二胺又名尸胺,是一种重要的生物基聚酰胺生产原料,可以与二元羧酸缩合生成生物基聚酰胺PA5X,其性能可以与石油基聚酰胺材料媲美。生物基聚酰胺以可再生能源为底物,如淀粉、纤维素、植物油等,符合绿色可持续发展战略。1,5-戊二胺的生物合成主要包括微生物从头合成及全细胞催化两种方法,而赖氨酸脱羧酶是其生物合成中的关键酶,该酶主要包括诱导型赖氨酸脱羧酶CadA和组成型赖氨酸脱羧酶LdcC两种。赖氨酸脱羧酶是一种折叠型Ⅰ型磷酸吡哆醛(pyridoxal-5'' phosphate,PLP)依赖酶,但该酶在实际反应过程中易受环境因素影响,存在活性不高、结构不稳定等问题。因此,提高赖氨酸脱羧酶催化活性及稳定性成为该领域的研究热点,主要包括分子改造以及固定化研究。文中综述了赖氨酸脱羧酶的作用机理、分子改造技术及固定化策略的研究进展,并对未来进一步提升赖氨酸脱羧酶活性及稳定性策略进行了展望,旨在实现1,5-戊二胺的高效生物制备。

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
