本文报导了薄层层析法及高压液相色谱法定性定量地测定植物油甘油酯的组成,对不同来源的脂肪酶对植物油的水解进行了研究。实验结果表明,不同来源的脂肪酶对植物油(橄榄油)的水解性不同,同一脂肪酶水解不同种类的植物油,脂肪酶的水解率也不同,脂肪酶水解植物油有最适pH和最适温度。     

钙调蛋白的自旋共振研究:拮抗剂和它的相互作用

利用碘乙酰胺氮氧自由基标记钙调蛋白研究了它与三氟拉嗪(TFP)、酸枣仁皂甙A(JuA)的相互作用。结果表明,每分子CaM分别至少可以结合两分子的TFP及JuA,它们的作用影响了CaM上的Met残基(主要是71,72和76)的环境,使反应自由基运动自由度的旋转相关时间τR值下降。据τR变化的趋势,推测TFP和JuA都是通过疏水作用结合到CaM上的疏水沟区,但两者的结合位点可能不同。     

视黄酸对人肝癌细胞表面N糖链类型及天线数的影响

本文采用系列凝集素柱层析法,并配合外切糖苷酶处理研究了在视黄酸(RA)作用1—5天过程中人肝癌细胞株SMMC-7721细胞表面N糖链结构的变化。结果表明,RA促进3~H-甘露糖(Man)参入细胞表面N糖链,使高甘露糖型N糖链的百分比下降,复杂型百分比上升,并促进二天线N糖链的生物合成,使多天线特别是四天线和C_2,C_(21)b三天线N糖链的合成减少。结果提示,N糖链结构的这些变化可能是RA诱导SMMC-7721细胞向正常方向分化的结果。     

酵母多肽对几种细胞DNA合成的影响

<正> 我们用国内的新鲜酵母为材料,从中分离纯化到一种多肽——酵母多肽,其分子量为14kD。在低血清培养体系中能促使人成纤维细胞(HFB)和人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVEC)的DNA合成。当培养液中酵母多肽的浓度为1μg/mL时能引起最大的刺激作用。但此多肽对胎牛心脏内皮细胞(FBHEC)的DNA合成则无作用。     

蜗牛酶对原生质体游离的影响

用10科11种双子叶植物的营养器官,在含1mg/L 2,4—D的MS固体培养基上诱导形成愈伤组织。取其生长旺盛的区域进行原生质体游离,并采用未经处理的相应植物的新鲜叶或茎作对照。研究结果表明,蜗牛酶对愈伤组织的原生质体游离具有明显的促进作用,而对照却无此效应。还研究了两种植物愈伤组织的继代天数和不同的酶组合对原生质体游离的影响。     

艾滋病病毒蛋白酶高效表达载体及体外活性检测系统的构建

艾滋病是本世纪80年代初发现的一种烈性传染病,5年病死率为100％,致病因子为人免疫缺陷病毒,该病毒的蛋白酶在病毒复制和成熟中具有决定性的意义。由于目前国内外尚未获得艾滋病病毒蛋白酶的高效表达的重组子及活性检测系统,限制了它的研究与应用。本文利用PCR技术修饰了艾滋病病毒蛋白酶的基因,使其具有便于克隆及表达用的限制酶切位点及转录终止码,井在其C末端设置了一个可用于检验该酶活性的特殊序列。DNA序列分析揭示上述突变策略成功,将修饰后的艾滋病病毒蛋白酶基因克隆入大肠杆菌表达系统,并获得高效表达(>30％),Western-Bolt鉴定结果表明所表达的蛋白为艾滋病病毒所特有,并具有较好的生物活性。

The detection and attribution of extreme reductions in vegetation growth across the global land surface

Negative extreme anomalies in vegetation growth (NEGs) usually indicate severely impaired ecosystem services. These NEGs can result from diverse natural and anthropogenic causes, especially climate extremes (CEs). However, the relationship between NEGs and many types of CEs remains largely unknown at regional and global scales. Here, with satellite-derived vegetation index data and supporting tree-ring chronologies, we identify periods of NEGs from 1981 to 2015 across the global land surface. We find 70% of these NEGs are attributable to five types of CEs and their combinations, with compound CEs generally more detrimental than individual ones. More importantly, we find that dominant CEs for NEGs vary by biome and region. Specifically, cold and/or wet extremes dominate NEGs in temperate mountains and high latitudes, whereas soil drought and related compound extremes are primarily responsible for NEGs in wet tropical, arid and semi-arid regions. Key characteristics (e.g., the frequency, intensity and duration of CEs, and the vulnerability of vegetation) that determine the dominance of CEs are also region- and biome-dependent. For example, in the wet tropics, dominant individual CEs have both higher intensity and longer duration than non-dominant ones. However, in the dry tropics and some temperate regions, a longer CE duration is more important than higher intensity. Our work provides the first global accounting of the attribution of NEGs to diverse climatic extremes. Our analysis has important implications for developing climate-specific disaster prevention and mitigation plans among different regions of the globe in a changing climate.     

Long-term changes in Noctiluca scintillans blooms along the Chinese coast from 1933 to 2020

Noctiluca scintillans is one of the most common harmful algal species and widely known due to its bioluminescence. In this study, the spatial distribution, seasonal variations, and long-term trends of N. scintillans blooms in China and the related drivers were analyzed and discussed. From 1933 to 2020, a total of 265 events of N. scintillans blooms were recorded in Chinese coastal waters, with a total duration of 1052 days. The first N. scintillans bloom occurred in Zhejiang in 1933, and only three events were recorded before 1980. From 1981 to 2020, N. scintillans caused harmful algal blooms (HABs) almost every year, both the average duration and the proportion of multiphase HABs showed an increasing trend. 1986–1992, 2002–2004, and 2009–2016 were the three peak periods with a frequency of no less than five events of N. scintillans blooms per year. In terms of spatial distribution, N. scintillans blooms spread from the Southeast China Sea to the Bohai Sea after 2000, Guangdong, Fujian, and Hebei were the three provinces with the highest numbers of recorded events of N. scintillans blooms. Moreover, 86.8% of the events of N. scintillans blooms occurred in spring (March, April, and May) and summer (June, July, and August). Among environmental factors, the dissolved inorganic phosphate, dissolved silicate and chemical oxygen demand were significantly correlated with the cell density of N. scintillans during N. scintillans blooms, and most of N. scintillans blooms were recorded in the temperature range of 18.0–25.0°C. Precipitation, hydrodynamics, water temperature, and food availability might be the main factors affecting the spatial–temporal distribution of N. scintillans blooms along the Chinese coast.
