Second external quality assurance study for the serological diagnosis of hantaviruses in Europe

Hantaviruses are endemic throughout the world and hosted by rodents and insectivores. Two human zoonoses, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS), are caused by hantaviruses and case fatality rates have reached 12% for HFRS and 50% for HPS in some outbreaks. Symptomatic hantavirus infections in Europe are summarised as HFRS mainly due to Puumala, Dobrava-Belgrade and Saaremaa virus. While HFRS has an overall low incidence in Europe, the number of cases varies from 100 per year in all Eastern and Southern Europe up to 1,000 per year only in Finland. To assess the quality of hantavirus diagnostics, the European Network for the Diagnostics of "Imported" Viral Diseases (ENIVD) organised a first external quality assurance (EQA) in 2002. The purpose of this second EQA study is to collect updated information on the efficiency and accurateness of hantavirus serological methods applied by expert laboratories. A serum panel of 14 samples was sent to 28 participants in Europe of which 27 sent results. Performance in hantavirus diagnosis varied not only on the method used but also on the laboratories and the subclass of antibodies tested. Commercial and in-house assays performed almost equally. Enzyme immunoassays were mainly used but did not show the best performances while immunoblot assays were the less employed and showed overall better performances. IgM antibodies were not detected in 61% of the positive IgM samples and IgM detection was not performed by 7% of the laboratories indicating a risk of overlooking acute infections in patients. Uneven performances using the same method is indicating that there is still a need for improving testing conditions and standardizing protocols.     

Expression and processing of the TMEM70 protein

TMEM70 protein represents a novel ancillary factor of mammalian ATP synthase. We have investigated import and processing of this factor in human cells using GFP- and FLAG-tagged forms of TMEM70 and specific antibodies. TMEM70 is synthesized as a 29kDa precursor protein that is processed to a 21kDa mature form. Immunocytochemical detection of TMEM70 showed mitochondrial colocalization with MitoTracker Red and ATP synthase. Western blot of subcellular fractions revealed the highest signal of TMEM70 in isolated mitochondria and mitochondrial location was confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. Based on analysis of submitochondrial fractions, TMEM70 appears to be located in the inner mitochondrial membrane, in accordance with predicated transmembrane regions in the central part of the TMEM70 sequence. Two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis did not show direct interaction of TMEM70 with assembled ATP synthase but indicated the presence of dimeric form of TMEM70. No TMEM70 protein could be found in cells and isolated mitochondria from patients with ATP synthase deficiency due to TMEM70 c.317-2A>G mutation thus confirming that TMEM70 biosynthesis is prevented in these patients.

巴基斯坦为害杧果树的短须螨属一新种(蜱螨亚纲,细须螨科)

在对巴基斯坦杧果种植区苏加堡的杧果树螨类区系研究中,发现短须螨属(蜱螨亚纲：细须螨科)1新种：礼短须螨。文中记录并描述了该新种。新种的背饰特点是：前背中侧近分颈沟处具网状纹、外侧具纵向条纹;具6对末体背侧毛。雄螨 未采到。正模♀,1994年1月1日采自巴基斯坦,苏加堡杧果园的落叶中;副模1,1994年11月3日采自马尔坦南3km处的杧果树叶,曼苏采。模式标本保存于农业大学农业昆虫系螨类研究室,费沙拉堡,巴基斯坦。新种的背饰独特,略与短须螨属中具7对末体背侧毛的种相像,但具6对末体背侧毛的种皆无此种背饰。

甜瓜自毒相关基因CmGST的克隆及其对自毒胁迫的响应

植物谷胱甘肽硫转移酶基因(GST)在清除生物和非生物胁迫产生的氧化损伤中扮演着重要的角色,为探究GST在根系分泌物介导的甜瓜自毒胁迫中的响应机制,该实验在转录组测序基础上,以甜瓜叶片cDNA为模板,采用RT PCR技术获得了一个根系分泌物介导的甜瓜自毒作用密切相关的GST基因,命名为CmGST(GenBank 登录号：AYU66762.1);对CmGST基因进行了相关生物信息学分析,同时对自毒胁迫过程中,CmGST的差异表达情况、谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GST)活性和谷胱甘肽(GSH)含量进行了相关测定。结果显示：(1)CmGST基因含有完整开放阅读框(ORF)654 bp,编码217个氨基酸;CmGST蛋白为酸性亲水蛋白,且较为稳定,具有GST家族Tau亚家族的2个典型的保守结构域;CmGST蛋白与黄瓜的亲缘关系较近。(2)亚细胞定位结果表明CmGST定位于细胞质中。(3)qRT PCR分析结果表明,CmGST在甜瓜根系和幼苗中均有表达,在正常生长的甜瓜幼苗中表达量相对稳定;自毒胁迫后在叶中的表达先降后升,后期迅速增加;在根系中变化趋势类似,但程度较为缓和。(4)GST活性和GSH含量分析表明,叶片中GST活性变化趋势与CmGST基因表达变化基本吻合;在根系中,GST活性呈现先升再降最后又升高的趋势;随胁迫时间增加,GSH含量在根系和叶片中均都有不同程度的增加,但根部含量低于叶片。研究认为,在自毒胁迫过程中,CmGST基因在甜瓜植株根和叶片均有相应表达水平的变化,参与了对根系分泌物介导的自毒胁迫响应。
