The action of membranotropic compounds with various structures on the parameters of the phase transition of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine

The effect of substances of different nature on the thermodynamic characteristics of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) phase transition by the differential scanning microcalorimetry has been studied. The substances disposed in hydrophobic part of membrane--alpha-tocopherol, ubiquinone Q10, ionol and vitamin K3 cause the decrease of enthalpy and cooperativity of phase transition. The substances which have the side hydrocarbon chain (tocopherol and ubiquinone Q10) compared with ones without it (ionol and vitamin K3) and reduced quinones (Q10 and vitamin K3) compared with the oxidized ones have stronger influence on the enthalpy and cooperativity of transition. The inclusion of the local anesthetic dicaine disposed mainly in the zone of polar heads of phospholipids into DMPC membranes decreases the temperature of phase transition considerably and practically does not change the cooperativity. A possibility to use the method of differential scanning microcalorimetry to estimate the localization of membrane tropic substances within lipid bilayer is under discussion.     

星天牛属的数值分类研究初探(鞘翅目:天牛科)

本文选取了92个综合特征对星天牛属 Anoplophora 的九个种分别进行了系统聚类法和主成分分析研究,结果是一致的。灰星天牛 A.versteegi(Ritsema)是一个比较特殊的种,在体型和一系列特征上都与其它星天牛类存在较大的差异,因此把它从本属中分出,归入安天牛属Annamanum是比较合理的。许多学者将 Anoplophora分开成两个亚属,甚或两个不同的属,数值分类结果表明,除A.versteegi外的所有种中,不存在明显的类元划分界线,且也不存在秩级划分的重要特征,而是呈均一的自然类群。 用三个相似性系数借助于三个协表相相关系数作为最优性分类的评判标准对系统聚类法的九种聚合策略进行了比较研究,结果表明UPGMA是最佳的。     

几种哺乳动物精子顶体膜囊泡形成的研究

在猪、绵羊、地鼠这几种哺乳动物的精子体外获能后,在顶体反应的超显微结构中观察到:精子顶体膜囊泡化呈现多种形态,但囊泡都是由精子顶体的双层外膜多位点自我融合而形成的,质膜并不参与囊泡化,这一结果与前人报道的不同。     

突变体——侏儒小鼠(dw~t)与津白3(TA3)不同日龄骨骼、体重及体长的比较

侏儒小鼠与津白3体重的比值为1:2.5。它们的骨骼、休重、休长及尾长的测量均具非常显著或显著意义。经均衡性检验,不同日龄、不同性别间TA3/dw~t小鼠的不同骨骼、体重、体长及尾长的比值变化是均匀一致的。证明侏儒小鼠骨骼、体重、体长及尾长均系均匀缩小,是身体各部分匀称的侏儒小鼠。     

Chromosome aberrations in workers of nuclear-power plants

The frequencies of chromosome aberrations in 135 workers from nuclear-power plants were compared with those in 135 age-matched controls. A total of 135,000 cells was scored. The frequencies of dicentric chromosome were 1.67 × 10⁻³ in the exposed group and 0.49 × 10⁻³ in the control group and those of chromosome-type deletion were 3.33 × 10⁻³ and 1.10 × 10⁻³, respectively. The frequencies of all types of chromosome aberrations in the exposed subjects were higher than those in the control group, but no significant trend of dose-dependent increase was observed when only the exposed group were considered. Poisson regression analysis, with both exposed and control included, showed that there was a significant association of chromosome aberration with radiation dose and the duration of work, but not with age, smoking habit and alcohol intake. It was also found that recent exposure to radiation, within the last 5 years, had contributed more to the observed chromosome aberration than earlier exposure.     

牵牛属质体DNA的父系遗传

利用限制性片段长度多态性（ＲＦＬＰ）技术研究了牵牛属（Ｐｈａｒｂｉｔｉｓ）植物质体ＤＮＡ 的遗传方式。结果表明,在牵牛（Ｐ． ｎｉｌ）×大花牵牛（Ｐ． ｌｉｍｂａｔａ）和大花牵牛×牵牛中,质体ＤＮＡ 为父系遗传。在大花牵牛×牵牛中,质体ＤＮＡ还有可能为双亲遗传。研究证明牵牛属为被子植物中具有质体父系遗传方式的第三个属。牵牛属质体父系遗传机制尚不清楚,作者认为母系质体及其ＤＮＡ 在受精后的释稀、排除和／或降解可能是质体父系遗传的基础     

大绒鼠的分带核型研究

本文采用G带、C带和银染核仁组织者(Ag-NORs)等技术,对大绒鼠(Eothe nomys miletus miletus)的核型进行观察分析。结果表明:2n=56,常染色体和性染色体皆为单臂染色体。X染色体的长度接近于No.1染色体,Y染色体的长度相当于14号染色体。G分带可鉴别每对染色体的特征,C-带核型中全部着丝点C带均显示不同程度的阳性。Y染色体整条呈阳性。Ag-NORs有5对,分别分布于1、2、6、14和27号染色体的着丝粒附近。通过核型分析,对大绒鼠的分类地位进行了初步探讨。
