The role of tryptophan in staphylococcal nuclease stability

Staphylococcal nuclease (SNase) has a single Trp residue at position 140. Circular dichroism, intrinsic and ANS-binding fluorescence, chemical titrations and enzymatic assays were used to measure the changes of its structure, stability and activities as the Trp was mutated or replaced to other positions. The results show that W140 is critical to SNase structure, stability, and function. Mutants such as W140A, F61W/W140A, and Y93W/W140A have unfolding, corrupted secondary and tertiary structures, diminished structural stability and attenuated catalytic activity as compared to the wild type. The deleterious effects of W140 substitution cannot be compensated by concurrent changes at topographical locations of position 61 or 93. Local hydrophobicity defined as a sum of hydrophobicity around a given residue within a distance is found to be a relevant property to SNase folding and stability.

我国特有植物一木里香橼叶精油化学成分的研究

用气相色谱保留指数定性法、色谱-质谱-计算机联用测定和标准品迭加法分析了木里香橼叶精油的化学成分。从分离出的59个色谱峰中鉴定了31个化合物。其中主要成分是柠檬烯(31.730％)、芳樟醇(1.554％)、香茅醛(23.383％)、香茅醇(1.189％)、橙花醇(11.777％)、香叶醛(16.544％),乙酸香茅酯(1.427％)、乙酸橙花酯(2.258％)、乙酸香叶酯(4.714％)等。把木里香橼叶油与木里香橼果皮油与云南野香橼叶油分别作了比较。结果表明木里香橼叶油中含氧化合物醇、醛、酯的含量相当高,是精油的主要成分,可能作为进口橙叶油的较好的代用品,是一种很有潜力的天然香料资源。

Aster ageratoides var. pendulus W. P. Li & G. X. Chen,a new variety of Aster (Asteraceae) from Hunan,China

Aster ageratoides var. pendulus W. P. Li & G. X. Chen, a new variety of Aster (Asteraceae) from Shimen County, northwestern Hunan, China, is described. The variety is similar to A. ageratoides var. laticorymbus (Vant.) Hand.-Mazz., from which it differs by having pendent stem, basal leaves and lower stem leaves purple beneath, stem leaves linear, hispid above, and broader phyllaries. The new variety is also possibly similar to A. ageratoides var. micranthus Ling in the linear leaves and white ligules, but differs by having the phyllaries green at apex, 1.25–1.75 mm wide, and the obvious creeping underground rhizomes.     

桂西和黔南中三叠世珊瑚

文内描述中三叠世安尼阶(Anisian)珊瑚化石分别采自桂西田阳板纳组和黔南贵阳青岩青岩组。板纳组珊瑚群中建立Pentasmilia guangxiensisgen.etsp.nov.,该新属种有5条第一周期原生隔片甚至有5条第二周期后生隔片,以此不同于有6条第一周期原生隔片和有6条第二周期后生隔片的石珊瑚类(scleractinians)的珊瑚。产于板纳组的另一新属种Radiophyllia astylatusgen.etsp.nov.,其隔片的排列格式与前人归纳的隔片周期插入示意图甚似,但它却发生在中生代最早期(Anisian)珊瑚的骸体内。文中还对青岩组的Pamiroseris silesiaca作了重新描述。
