新疆军垦型细毛羊基因组BAC文库的构建

选用新疆军垦型细毛羊为材料,.构建了含有190 464个克隆的BAC文库,文库平均插入片段大小为133 kb,同时文库92.5%的克隆插入片段大于100 kb,而且有部分克隆甚至大于300 kb,这将满足大多数基因筛选的要求.假定绵羊的基因组含有3x106 kb,根据文库的平均插入片段大小,计算的文库基因组覆盖率为8倍.因此,从文库筛选到目的片段的概率为98.2%.由于该文库中插入的外源片段来自新疆军垦型细毛羊的基因组,这对于研究新疆军垦型细毛羊的特殊性状的基因与其他绵羊品种和物种之间的差异,及构建其全基因组物理图谱和基因图谱地完善是非常有利的.

白氏文昌鱼FADD的克隆及功能研究

Fas死亡结构域相关蛋白(Fas-associated death domain protein,FADD)是死亡信号转导通路中的连接蛋白,在脊椎动物中其结构和功能都很保守.本文首次克隆了头索动物白氏文昌鱼(Branchiostoma belched)FADD(bbFADD)的cDNA和基因组DNA序列.bbFADD cDNA全长1239 bp,编码217个氨基酸.与脊椎动物的FADD一样,bbFADD含有N端的死亡效应结构域(Death Effector Domain,DED)和C端的死亡结构域(Death Domain,DD).bbFADD氨基酸序列的第33位氨基酸苯丙氨酸在进化过程中相对保守,此苯丙氨酸在FADD自我相互作用中具有重要作用.哺乳类的FADD基因编码区含有两个外显子,而bbFADD基因含有3个外显子.一般认为头索动物处在无脊椎动物进化到脊椎动物的中间过渡阶段,但基于FADD氨基酸序列的系统进化树和同源性分析显示,文昌鱼与海胆的亲缘关系更近.bbFADD在HeLa细胞中超表达能够引起HeLa细胞的凋亡,暗示bbFADD可能能够在人类细胞凋亡通路中起作用,推测凋亡系统在生物进化过程中相当保守.

Whole‐genome resequencing reveals the pleistocene temporal dynamics of Branchiostoma belcheri and Branchiostoma floridae populations

Global climatic fluctuations governed the ancestral demographic histories of species and contributed to place the current population status into a more extensive ecological and evolutionary context. Genetic variations will leave unambiguous signatures in the patterns of intraspecific genetic variation in extant species since the genome of each individual is an imperfect mosaic of the ancestral genomes. Here, we report the genome sequences of 20 Branchiostoma individuals by whole‐genome resequencing strategy. We detected over 140 million genomic variations for each Branchiostoma individual. In particular, we applied the pairwise sequentially Markovian coalescent (PSMC) method to estimate the trajectories of changes in the effective population size (N_e) of Branchiostoma population during the Pleistocene. We evaluated the threshold of sequencing depth for proper inference of demographic histories using PSMC was ≥25×. The PSMC results highlight the role of historical global climatic fluctuations in the long‐term population dynamics of Branchiostoma. The inferred ancestral N_e of the Branchiostoma belcheri populations from Zhanjiang and Xiamen (China) seawaters was different in amplitude before the first (mutation rate = 3 × 10^?9) or third glaciation (mutation rate = 9 × 10^?9) of the Pleistocene, indicating that the two populations most probably started to evolve in isolation in their respective seas after the first or third glaciation of the Pleistocene. A pronounced population bottleneck coinciding with the last glacial maximum was observed in all Branchiostoma individuals, followed by a population expansion occurred during the late Pleistocene. Species that have experienced long‐term declines may be especially vulnerable to recent anthropogenic activities. Recently, the industrial pollution and the exploitation of sea sand have destroyed the harmonious living environment of amphioxus species. In the future, we need to protect the habitat of Branchiostoma and make full use of these detected genetic variations to facilitate the functional study of Branchiostoma for adaptation to local environments.

Construction and evaluation of a porcine bacterial artificial chromosome library

A porcine bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library consisting of 103,488 clones has been constructed. The average insert size in the BAC vector was calculated to be 133 kb based on the examination of 189 randomly selected clones, indicating that the library contained 4.4 genome equivalents. The library can be screened by two-step PCR. The first screening step is performed on 22 superpools, each containing 4704 clones (49 x 96 well plates). In the second screening step, 49 plates comprising a superpool are arrayed in a 7 x 7 matrix and 4D-PCR is performed. Screening of the library superpools by PCR for 125 marker sequences selected from different regions of swine genome revealed 123 sequences, indicating that the library is not biased. Subsequent screenings (4D-PCR) were successfully applied for identification of clones containing each marker sequence. This porcine BAC library and the PCR screening system are useful for isolation of genomic DNA fragments containing desired sequences.     

Presence of prophenoloxidase in the humoral fluid of amphioxus Branchiostoma belcheri tsingtauense

The presence of phenoloxidase (PO) activity in the humoral fluid of amphioxus Branchiostoma belcheri tsingtauense was electrophoretically and spectrophotometrically studied. The enzyme was present in the humoral fluid predominantly as an inactive proenzyme, prophenoloxidase (proPO). The optimum temperature for activation of the proPO ranged from 30 degrees C to 35 degrees C, and the enzyme exhibited optimum activity at pH between 7.0 and 7.5. ProPO in the humoral fluid was readily activated to active form PO by exogenous elicitors such as trypsin, zymosan and LPS. The activation of the proPO by exogenous elicitors was significantly enhanced in the presence of 10 mM Ca2+, but was susceptible to serine protease inhibitors like soybean trypsin inhibitor and p-nitrophenyl-p'-guanidinobenzoate. PAGE revealed a single band of PO activity in the humoral fluid with an apparent molecular mass of 150 kDa, which was resolved to three bands with molecular masses of 44, 46 and 72 kDa, respectively, after SDS-PAGE. This is the first report on the presence of the enzyme PO in amphioxus humoral fluid.
