A suite of experiments are presented for the measurement of H–C, C–C, C–C and HN–N couplings from uniformly 15N, 13C labeled proteins. Couplings are obtained from a series of intensity modulated two-dimensional HN–N spectra equivalent to the common 1H–15N–HSQC spectra, alleviating many overlap and assignment issues associated with other techniques. To illustrate the efficiency of this method, H–C, C–C, and HN–N isotropic scalar couplings were determined for ubiquitin from data collected in less than 4.5 h, C–C data collection required 10 h. The resulting couplings were measured with an average error of ±0.06, ±0.05, ±0.04 and ±0.10 Hz, respectively. This study also shows H–C and C–C couplings, valuable because they provide orientation of bond vectors outside the peptide plane, can be measured in a uniform and precise way. Superior accuracy and precision to existing 3D measurements for C–C couplings and increased precision compared to IPAP measurements for HN–N couplings are demonstrated. Minor modifications allow for acquisition of modulated HN–C 2D spectra, which can yield additional well resolved peaks and significantly increase the number of measured RDCs for proteins with crowded 1H–15N resonances. 相似文献

The magnitude of the proton motive force (p) and its constituents, the electrical () and chemical potential (-ZpH), were established for chemostat cultures of a protease-producing, relaxed (rel
–) variant and a not protease-producing, stringent (rel
+) variant of an industrial strain ofBacillus licheniformis (respectively referred to as the A- and the B-type). For both types, an inverse relation of p with the specific growth rate was found. The calculated intracellular pH (pHin) was not constant but inversely related to . This change in pHin might be related to regulatory functions of metabolism but a regulatory role for pHin itself could not be envisaged. Measurement of the adenylate energy charge (EC) showed a direct relation with for glucose-limited chemostat cultures; in nitrogen-limited chemostat cultures, the EC showed an approximately constant value at low and an increased value at higher . For both limitations, the ATP/ADP ratio was directly related to .The phosphorylation potential (G'p) was invariant with . From the values for G'p and p, a variable H+/ATP-stoichiometry was inferred: H+/ATP=1.83+0.52µ, so that at a given H+/O-ratio of four (4), the apparent P/O-ratio (inferred from regression analysis) showed a decline of 2.16 to 1.87 for =0 to max (we discuss how more than half of this decline will be independent of any change in internal cell-volume). We propose that the constancy of G'p and the decrease in the efficiency of energy-conservation (P/O-value) with increasing are a way in which the cells try to cope with an apparent less than perfect coordination between anabolism and catabolism to keep up the highest possible with a minimum loss of growth-efficiency. Protease production in nitrogen-limited cultures as compared to glucose-limited cultures, and the difference between the A- and B-type, could not be explained by a different energy-status of the cells.Abbreviations CCCP

Internal motions of d-ribose selectively 2H-labeled at the 2 position were measured using solid state 2H NMR experiments. A sample of d-ribose-2
-d was prepared in a hydrated, non-crystalline state to eliminate effects of crystal-packing. Between temperatures of –74 and –60°C the C2–H2 bond was observed to undergo two kinds of motions which were similar to those of C2–H2/H2 found previously in crystalline deoxythymidine (Hiyama et al. (1989) J. Am. Chem. Soc., 111, 8609–8613): (1) Nanosecond motion of small angular displacement with an apparent activation energy of 3.6 ± 0.7 kcal mol–1, and (2) millisecond to microsecond motion of large amplitude with an apparent activation energy 4 kcal mol–1. At –74°C, the slow, large-amplitude motion was best characterized as a two-site jump with a correlation time on the millisecond time scale, whereas at –60°C it was diffusive on the microsecond time scale. The slow, large-amplitude motions of the C2–H2 bond are most likely from interconversions between C2-endo and C3-endo by way of the O4-endo conformation, whereas the fast, small-amplitude motions are probably librations of the C2–H2 bond within the C2-endo and C3-endo potential energy minima. 相似文献

The conformational properties of the oligosaccharide chain of GM1 ganglioside containingN-glycolyl-neuraminic acid, -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Gc-(2-3)]--Gal-(1-4)--Glc-(1-1)-Cer, were studied through NMR nuclear Overhauser effect investigations on the monomeric ganglioside in dimethylsulfoxide, and on mixed micelles of ganglioside and dodecylphosphocholine in water. Several interresidual contacts for the trisaccharide core--GalNAc-(1-4)-[-Neu5Gc-(2-3)]--Gal-were found to fix the relative orientitation of the three saccharides, while the glycosidic linkage of the terminal -Gal-was found to be quite mobile as the -Gal-(1-3)--GalNAc-disaccharide exists in different conformations. These results are similar to those found for two GM1 gangliosides containingN-acetyl-neuraminic acid and neuraminic acid [1].Abbreviations Ganglioside nomenclature is in accordance with Svennerholm [23] and the IUPAC-IUB Recommendations [24] GM3(Neu5Ac)

Doubled haploid (DH) progeny from a cross between the scald susceptible barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivar Ingrid and the resistant accession CI 11549 (Nigrinudum) was evaluated for resistance in the pathogen Rhynchosporium secalis (Oudem) J.J. Davis. Two linked and incompletely dominant loci confer resistance CI 11549 against isolate 4004. One is an allele at the complex Rrs1 locus on chromosome 3H close to the centromere; the other is located 22 cM distally on the long arm. The latter locus is designated Rrs4. In BC3-lines into Ingrid from CI 2222 (another Nigrinudum) resistance seems governed by one locus close to the telomeric region of chromosome 7H, probably allelic to Rrs2. In neither case did we find any trace of the recessive gene rh8 reported to be present in Nigrinudum. Various resistance donors of Ethiopian origin designated as Nigrinudum, Jet or Abyssinian were identical to a great extent with respect to markers, but differed in resistance to different isolates of scald or in barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) resistance. The implications for their use as differentials in scald tests and screening of germplasm collections are discussed. 相似文献

The six binary montmorillonite clay-catalyzed reactions of the5-phosphorimidazolides of adenosine, cytidine, guanosine anduridine were performed and the eight dimers from each reactionwere separated and analyzed by HPLC. A 16–51-fold higher yieldof the 5-purine-pyrimidine dimers over that of the5-pyrimidine-purines was observed. The total yield of the5-purine-pyrimidine dimers was in the 50–70% range while thatof the 5-pyrimidine-purine dimers was 1.3–7.0%. Less sequenceselectivity was observed in the homodimers formed.Regioselectivity for the formation of 3, 5-phosphodiesterbonds over that found in the absence of clay was observed. The5-purine-pyrimidine, 5-pyrimidine-pyrimidine and5-purine-purine dimers had 3, 5-links in about half of theirphosphodiester bonds. The percent phosphodiester links in the5-pyrimidine-pyrimidine dimers was 18%, a value close to thatobserved in the absence of the montmorillonite catalyst. Themontmorillonite-catalyzed reaction of all four activatednucleotides was performed and the 24 products were separated andanalyzed. The trends observed in the binary reactions wereconfirmed and the results also showed that the relativereactivity of the activated monomers was A>G>C>U in theratio 8.2: 4.8: 1.3: 1 respectively. No 5-pyrimidine-purineswith a 5-U and pG3pU, pC3pAand pC3pG weredetected. These studies suggest that a limited population ofRNAs would have formed in catalyzed prebiotic reactions. 相似文献

Nuclear and cytoplasmic gene control of resistance to loose smut (Ustilago tritici (Pers.) Rostr.) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Summary Using disomic chromosome substitution lines based on the susceptible wheat cultivar Chinese Spring, loose smut resistance of wheat cultivars Hope and Thatcher was shown to be conferred in each case by a single dominant major gene carried on chromosome 7 A (Hope) or 7 B (Thatcher). Partial resistance was determined by genes on an additional eight Hope or seven Thatcher chromosomes, and similarities were evident between the partial resistance genotypes ofHope and Thatcher. Chinese Spring exhibited a mean infection value of approximately 50%, indicating a significant level of partial resistance, which was found to be due, in part, to genes on the homoeologous chromosome arms 1 As, 1 Es and 1 Ds, and to cytoplasmic genes. Substitution of the Chinese Spring nucleus into the cytoplasm of Aegilops squarrosa, Ae. variabilis or Ae. mutica resulted in increased susceptibility to Ustilago tritici. Several alloplasmic lines of the resistant wheat cultivars Selkirk and Chris exhibited race-specific susceptibility to U. tritici. 相似文献

Summary Four types of chromosomes with a deletion between the human embryonic and globin genes were identified among 2.8% of 321 Black Americans from Georgia. Two deletions of approximately 11 kb which differed by about 300 bp occurred on chromosomes with or without a polymorphic Xba I site 5 to the globin gene [(X+) or (X-)]. The deletions are identifiable in Xba I digests of genomic DNA using an or a globin gene probe which yield fragments of 23 kb from (X+)–* chromosomes or 27 kb from (X–)–* chromosomes. Digestion with other enzymes and probing with both and probes gave fragments typical of the two globin gene deletions previously identified in Polynesians. Among Black Americans, these globin gene deletions have been found in combination with globin gene deletions in trans but not in cis. Homozygotes have not been found. Hematologic data on carriers of the globin gene deletions in association with Hb AS, SS, and SC suggest that these deletions have no effect on the function of the adult globin genes. 相似文献

Summary One hundred and twenty-two varieties, lines and wild accessions of Lycopersicon were screened under three different regimes during the autumn/winter season of 1982–83 and 1983–84 for resistance to tomato leaf curl virus (TLCV). L. hirsutum f. glabratum (B6013) and L. hirsutum f. typicum (A1904) proved to be highly resistant to TLCV in all three environments. Various accessions of L. peruvianum were also highly resistant. L. pimpinellifolium (A1921) exhibited no TLCV symptoms within 90 days. Of the cultivated varieties, Acc 99 exhibited the minimim score for susceptibility; AC 142, Collection No. 2, Kalyanpur Angurlata and HS 101 had a low rating for virus incidence. The inheritance of resistance was studied in the interspecific crosses between a TLCV resistant line of L. pimpinellifolium (A1921) and five (HS 101, HS 102, HS 110, Pusa Ruby and Punjab Chhuhara) susceptible cultivars of L. esculentum. Parents, F1, F2 and backcross progenies were artificially inoculated with local strains of TLCV using vector the viruliferious whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Genn.). Data indicated that the resistance of L. pimpinellifolium (A 1921) is monogenic and incompletely dominant over susceptibility. 相似文献

Copper but not iron limitation increases astaxanthin production by Phaffia rhodozyma in a chemically defined medium 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The influence of copper (0–32 M) and iron (0–108 M) on growth and astaxanthin production by Phaffia rhodozyma was studied. Copper below 3.2 M increased the astaxanthin content of the cells (from 220 to 287 g g–1) but at the expense of a slightly decreased growth (from 11.3 to 10.2 mg ml–1). In contrast, iron below 1 M decreased both the growth and astaxanthin content of the cells. Using copper limitation instead of toxic respiratory inhibitors to improve astaxanthin production has obvious advantages from the product quality, environmental and process operation points of view. 相似文献

A set of 18 synthetic uniform overlapping peptides spanning the entire extracellular part (residues 1–210) of the -subunit of human acetylcholine receptor were studied for their binding activity of125I-labeled -bungarotoxin and cobratoxin. A major toxin-binding region was found to reside within peptide 122–138. In addition, low-binding activities were obtained with peptides 34–49 and 194–210. It is concluded that the region within residues 122–138 constitutes a universal major toxin-binding region for acetylcholine receptor of various species. 相似文献

Stable carbon (13C) and nitrogen (15N) isotopes were used to elucidate primary food sources and trophic relationships of organisms in Khung Krabaen Bay and adjacent offshore waters. The three separate sampling sites were mangroves, inner bay and offshore. The 13C values of mangrove leaves were –28.2 to –29.4, seagrass –10.5, macroalgae –14.9 to –18.2, plankton –20.0 to –21.8, benthic detritus –15.1 to –26.3, invertebrates –16.5 to –26.0, and fishes –13.4 to –26.3. The 15N values of mangrove leaves were 4.3 to 5.7, seagrass 4.3, macroalgae 2.2 to 4.4, plankton 5.7 to 6.4 , benthic detritus 5.1 to 5.3, invertebrates 7.2 to 12.2 , and fishes 6.3 to 15.9. The primary producers had distinct 13C values. The 13C values of animals collected from mangroves were more negative than those of animals collected far from shore. The primary carbon sources that support food webs clearly depended on location. The contribution of mangroves to food webs was confined only to mangroves, but a mixture of macroalgae and plankton was a major carbon source for organisms in the inner bay area. Offshore organisms clearly derived their carbon through the planktonic food web. The 15N values of consumers were enriched by 3–4 relative to their diets. The 15N data suggests that some of aquatic animals had capacity to change their feeding habits according to places and availability of foods and as a result, individuals of the same species could be assigned to different trophic levels at different places. 相似文献

Membrane preparations of Fusobacterium nucleatum grown on glutamate contain glutaconyl-CoA decarboxylase at a high specific activity (13.8 nkat/mg protein). The enzyme was solubilized with 2% Triton X-100 in 0.5M NaCl and purified 63-fold to a specific activity of 870 nkat/mg by affinity chromatography on monomeric avidin-Sepharose. The activity of the decarboxylase was strictly dependent on Na+ (K
m=3 mM) and was stimulated up to 3-fold by phospholipids. The glutaconyl-CoA decarboxylases from the gram-positive bacteria Acidaminococcus fermentans and Clostridium symbiosum have a lower apparent K
m for Na+ (1 mM) and were not stimulated by phospholipids. In addition only the fusobacterial decarboxylase required sodium ion for stability and was inactivated by potassium ion. By incorporation of this purified enzyme into phospholipids an electrogenic sodium ion pump was reconstituted. The enzyme consists of four subunits, (m=65 kDa), (33 kDa), (19 kDa), and (16 kDa) with the functions of a carboxy transferase (), a carboxy lyase ( and probably ) and a biotin carrier (). The subunits are very similar to those of the glutaconyl-CoA decarboxylases from the gram-positive bacteria. With an antiserum directed against the decarboxylase from A. fermentans the - and the biotin containing subunits of the three decarboxylases and that from Peptostreptoccus asaccharolyticus could be detected on Western blots. 相似文献

As the first step in the transfer of barely yellow dwarf virus resistance and salt tolerance from decaploid tall wheatgrass (Thinopyrum ponticum) into hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), octoploid intergeneric hybrids (2n = 8x = 56) were synthesized by crossing the tall wheatgrass cultivar Alkar with wheat cvs. Fukuhokomugi (Fuko) and Chinese Spring. (Fuko x Alkar) F1 hybrids were studied in detail. The F1 hybrids were perennial and generally resembled the male wheatgrass parent with regard to morphological features and gliadin profile. Most hybrids were euploid with 56 chromosomes and showed high chromosome pairing. On an average, in 6 hybrids 83.6% of the complement showed chiasmatic association, some between wheat and wheatgrass chromosomes. Such a high homoeologous pairing would be obtained if Ph1, the major homoeologous pairing suppressor in wheat, was somehow inactivated. Some of the Fuko x Alkar hybrids had high pollen fertility (18.5–42.0% with a mean of 31.5%) and high seed fertility (3–29 seeds wtih a mean of 12.3 seeds per spike), offering excellent opportunities for their direct backcrossing onto the wheat parent. 相似文献

Summary Three different conformations of proline rings in a protein in solution, Up, Down and Twist, have been distinguished, and stereospecific assignments of the pyrrolidine -, - and -hydrogens have been made on the basis of 1H-1H vicinal coupling constant patterns and intraresidue NOEs. For all three conformations, interhydrogen distances in the pairs -3, 3-3, 2-2, 2-2, and 3-3 (2.3 Å) are shorter than those in the pairs -2, 2-3, 3-2, 2-3, and 3-2 (2.7–3.0 Å), resulting in stronger NOESY cross peaks. For the Up conformation, the 3-2 and 2-3 spin-spin coupling constants are small (<3 Hz), and weak cross peaks are obtained in a short-mixing-time (10 ms) TOCSY spectrum; all other vicinal coupling constants are in the range 5–12 Hz, and result in medium to strong TOCSY cross peaks. For the Down form, the -2, 2-3, and 3-2 vicinal coupling constants are small, leading to weak TOCSY cross peaks; all other couplings again are in the range 5–12 Hz, and result in medium to strong TOCSY cross peaks. In the case of a Twist conformation, dynamically averaged coupling constants are anticipated. The procedure has been applied to bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor and Cucurbita maxima trypsin inhibitor-V, and ring conformations of all prolines in the two proteins have been determined. 相似文献

Donor tissue and culture condition effects on mesophyll protoplasts of Medicago sativa 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Mesophyll protoplasts were produced from clones of two cultivars of Medicago sativa, Rangelander and Regen S. Protoplasts from the Regen S clone generally gave rise to calli while those from the Rangelander clone would undergo direct embryogenesis. Effects of plant growth conditions, donor tissue pretreatment and protoplast culture conditions on mesophyll protoplast production and subsequent development patterns were investigated. The major factor determining whether or not mesophyll protoplasts would be produced from either of the clones was the pretreatment in water of shoots excised from the donor plants. Pretreatment in water containing growth regulators did not alter protoplast production or development in the Regen S clone. Pretreatment of the Rangelander clone shoots with abscisic acid or naphthaleneacetic acid was slightly beneficial to embryo production while pretreatment with benzylaminopurine was detrimental. Altered leaf morphology induced by growth condition changes did not affect mesophyll protoplast production or subsequent development patterns when shoots were pretreated in water. Culture of protoplasts in liquid droplets or solid agar medium increased low density protoplast survival and subsequent embryo production in the Rangelander clone. 相似文献

The study deals with a comparative analysis of the relative abundances of the carbon isotopes 12C and 13C in the metabolites and biomass of the Burkholderia sp. BS3702 and Pseudomonas putida BS202-p strains capable of utilizing aliphatic (n-hexadecane) and aromatic (naphthalene) hydrocarbons as sources of carbon and energy. The isotope compositions of the carbon dioxide, biomass, and exometabolites produced during the growth of Burkholderia sp.

2 = –24.1 ± 0.4, 13Cbiom = –19.2 ± 0.4, and 13Cexo = –19.1 ± 0.4, respectively. The possibility of using the isotope composition of metabolic carbon dioxide for the rapid monitoring of the microbial degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in the environment is discussed. 相似文献

Synopsis The ovary of the domestic pigeon,Columba livia, has been assayed histochemically for the localization of 5-3-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (5-3-HSDH), 17-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17-HSDH), 11-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11-HSDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6P-DH) and NADH-diaphorase activities during different periods of the reproductive cycle. 5-3-HSDH, 17-HSDH, 11-HSDH, G6P-DH and NADH-diaphorase activity was found in the theca interna of growing, atretic and postovulatory follicles, the granulosa of ovulatory, atretic and postovulatory follicles, and interstitial gland cells during the pre-incubation and the laying periods. During the incubation and squab feeding periods only 5-3-HSDH, G6P-DH and NADH-diaphorase activities were observed in the above mentioned cells. The steroidogenic potential of atretic follicles depends upon the type of atresia a follicle undergoes. 相似文献
