Factors that affect bacterial ice nucleation, including growth medium, growth phase, nutrient deprivation, and cold-temperature exposure, were investigated in the ice nucleation active (INA) fungus Fusarium acuminatum SRSF 616. Ice nucleation activity remained relatively constant throughout the growth cycle, and the cell-free culture supernatant consistently displayed higher ice nucleation activity than the hyphal pellet. Although nutrient starvation and low-temperature exposure enhance bacterial ice nucleation activity, reducing the concentration of C, N, or P in synthetischer nährstoffarmer broth (SNB) did not increase fungal ice nucleation activity, nor did exposure to 4°C or 15°C. From the SNB supernatant, selected INA chromatography fractions were obtained that demonstrated increased sensitivity to proteinase K and heat compared with culture supernatant. We propose that partial purification of the fungal ice nuclei resulted in removal of low-molecular-weight stabilizing factors. 相似文献

Genetic variation in Beauveria bassiana populations associated with the darkling beetle, Alphitobius diaperinus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A study was conducted to assess genetic variation within and among populations of Beauveria bassiana (Deuteromycotina: Hyphomycetes) associated with the darkling beetle, Alphitobius diaperinus (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), using RAPD markers. A hierarchical collection of samples (strains from the same insect specimen, from insects from the same location, and from insects from different locations) was obtained from infected beetles from North Carolina (NC) and West Virginia (WV), USA. Ten primers resolved 81 strains into 80 distinct multiband phenotypes reflecting the substantial amount of variation that was present. Variation present within populations was evident not only in the separation of each strain as a distinct multiband phenotype but also in the separation of strains within a population into separate clusters. Among populations, a group sharing more than 89% similarity was observed among all the strains from Martin Co. and Greene Co., NC and 61% of the strains collected from WV. Some genetic differentiation was present among the other populations but the separation was not distinct with a few strains from some populations showing greater affinity to strains from other collection sites. 相似文献

An optimized protocol for metabolome analysis in yeast using direct infusion electrospray mass spectrometry 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
A method for the global analysis of yeast intracellular metabolites, based on electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS), has been developed. This has involved the optimization of methods for quenching metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and extracting the metabolites for analysis by positive-ion electrospray mass spectrometry. The influence of cultivation conditions, sampling, quenching and extraction conditions, concentration step, and storage have all been studied and adapted to allow direct infusion of samples into the mass spectrometer and the acquisition of metabolic profiles with simultaneous detection of more than 25 intracellular metabolites. The method, which can be applied to other micro-organisms and biological systems, may be used for comparative analysis and screening of metabolite profiles of yeast strains and mutants under controlled conditions in order to elucidate gene function via metabolomics. Examples of the application of this analytical strategy to specific yeast strains and single-ORF yeast deletion mutants generated through the EUROFAN programme are presented. 相似文献

An immunoenzymatic solid-phase assay for quantitative determination of HIV-1 protease activity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A novel immunoenzymatic procedure for the quantitative determination of HIV protease activity is provided. An N-terminal biotinylated peptide (DU1) that comprises an HIV-1 protease (HIV-PR) cleavage sequence was bound to streptavidin-coated microtiter plates. The bound peptide can be quantified by an immunoenzymatic procedure (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA) that includes a monoclonal antibody (Mab 332) against the peptide (DU1) C-terminal. The incubation of the bound peptide with HIV-PR in solution resulted in a signal decrement, as the peptide was hydrolyzed and the released C-terminal segment washed away. An equation that relates the amount of added enzyme to the kinetics of the reaction was written in order to describe this heterogeneous enzyme-quasi-saturable system. This equation allows quantitative determination of protease activity, a feature widely underrated in previous similar assays. The assay also allows evaluation of the inhibitory activity of HIV-PR inhibitors. Due to the intrinsic advantages of the ELISA format, this method could be used in high-throughput screening of HIV protease inhibitors. The assay can be extended to other proteolytic enzymes. 相似文献

Laboratory studies were conducted to identify ice-nucleating active bacterial strains able to elevate the supercooling point, the temperature at which freezing is initiated in body fluids, of Colorado potato beetles, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), and to persist in their gut. Adult beetles fed ice-nucleating active strains of Pseudomonas fluorescens, P. putida, or P. syringae at 10(6) or 10(3) bacterial cells per beetle had significantly elevated supercooling points, from -4.5 to -5.7 degrees C and from -5.2 to -6.6 degrees C, respectively, immediately after ingestion. In contrast, mean supercooling point of untreated control beetles was -9.2 degrees C. When sampled at 2 and 12 wk after ingestion, only beetles fed P. fluorescens F26-4C and 88-335 still had significantly elevated supercooling points, indicating that these strains of bacteria were retained. Furthermore, beetle supercooling points were comparable to those observed immediately after ingestion, suggesting that beetle gut conditions were favorable not only for colonization but also for expression of ice-nucleating activity by these two strains. The results obtained from exposure to a single, low dose of either bacterial strain also show that a minimum amount of inoculum is sufficient for establishment of the bacterium in the gut. Persistence of these bacteria in Colorado potato beetles long after ingestion was also confirmed using a polymerase chain reaction technique that detected ice-nucleating active bacteria by virtue of their ina genes. Application of these ice-nucleating active bacteria to elevate the supercooling point of this freeze-intolerant insect pest could significantly reduce their winter survival, thereby reducing local populations and, consequently, crop damage. 相似文献
