红松越冬针叶的电子自旋共振（ESR）波谱

用ESR波谱仪在越冬红松针叶及叶绿体冻干粉中检出了g值分别为2.0044和2.0037的明确的单峰信号。针叶伤害愈重,信号愈强。此信号可被Vc或富含SOD等多种自由基清除剂的沙棘果汁所抑制。针叶受害愈重,沙棘果汁对信号的抑制作用愈强,Vc的抑制作用愈弱。据此认为红松苗越冬伤害和有机自由基的形成有关。在伤害发展的不同阶段,有机自由基的种类组成也不同。

家兔早期胚胎细胞发育能力的研究

本文利用胚泡注射法制作嵌合体对家兔交配后96,120和144小时的ICM细胞的发育能力进行了研究。供体胚胎取自青紫兰灰免,受体胚胎取自新西兰白兔,结果表明96和120小时供胚的ICM细胞与96小时受胚胚泡组合后均能参与发育,形成嵌合兔,144小时者未获得嵌合体。由于120小时的ICM细胞发育的2只表型为雄性的嵌合兔,其中1只不育,其性腺和外周血核型表明不育兔为xx/xy性嵌合,性腺中有处于不同发育程度的卵巢和精细管,外周血含xx和xy两种核型。本实验结果首次证明家兔交配后120小时胚泡的ICM细胞仍具有参与嵌合体发育的能力。它不仅能参与体细胞的分化,并具有形成生殖细胞的能力。交配后144小时胚泡的ICM细胞其发育能力似乎已发生了局限。     

Identification of baculovirus gene that promotes Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus replication in a nonpermissive insect cell line.

A gene that promotes Autographa californica M nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcMNPV) replication in IPLB-Ld652Y cells, a cell line that is nonpermissive for AcMNPV, was identified in Lymantria dispar M nuclear polyhedrosis virus (LdMNPV). Cotransfection of AcMNPV DNA and a plasmid carrying the LdMNPV gene into IPLB-Ld652Y cells results in AcMNPV replication. The gene maps between 43.3 and 43.8 map units on the 162-kbp genome of LdMNPV. It comprises a 218-codon open reading frame and encodes a polypeptide with a predicted molecular mass of 25.7 kDa. The predicted polypeptide is glutamic acid and valine rich and negatively charged, with a pI of 4.61. No protein sequence motifs were identified, and no matches with known nucleotide or peptide sequences were found in the AcMNPV genome or database searches that suggest how this gene might function. A recombinant AcMNPV bearing the LdMNPV gene overcomes a block in protein synthesis observed in AcMNPV-infected IPLB-Ld652Y cells. Using Southern blotting techniques, we were unable to identify a homolog in Orgyia pseudotsugata M nuclear polyhedrosis virus, a baculovirus that is routinely propagated in IPLB-Ld652Y cells. This suggests that the LdMNPV host range is unique among the baculoviruses studied to date. We named this gene hrf-1 (for host range factor 1).     

Genetic Interactions between Reg1/Hex2 and Glc7, the Gene Encoding the Protein Phosphatase Type 1 Catalytic Subunit in Saccharomyces Cerevisiae

Mutations in GLC7, the gene encoding the type 1 protein phosphatase catalytic subunit, cause a variety of abberrant phenotypes in yeast, such as impaired glycogen synthesis and relief of glucose repression of the expression of some genes. Loss of function of the REG1/HEX2 gene, necessary for glucose repression of several genes, was found to suppress the glycogen-deficient phenotype of the glc7-1 allele. Deletion of REG1 in a wild-type background led to overaccumulation of glycogen as well as slow growth and an enlarged cell size. However, loss of REG1 did not suppress other phenotypes associated with GLC7 mutations, such as inability to sporulate or, in cells bearing the glc7(Y-170) allele, lack of growth at 14°. The effect of REG1 deletion on glycogen accumulation is not simply due to derepression of glucose-repressed genes, although it does require the presence of SNF1, which encodes a protein kinase essential for expression of glucose-repressed genes and for glycogen accumulation. We propose that REG1 has a role in controlling glycogen accumulation.     

小麦×玉米杂交后代的蛋白质及酯酶同工酶分析

以８ 个普通小麦（Ｔｒｉｔｉｃｕｍ ａｅｓｔｉｖｕｍ Ｌ．）品种为母本,２ 个栽培玉米（Ｚｅａ ｍ ａｙｓ Ｌ．）品种为父本杂交所获得的Ｆ２ 代在形态上出现了明显变异。对其籽粒进行蛋白质电泳分析,得到了如下主要结果：杂交后代的蛋白质谱带较母本有了很大的变异,主要集中在高分子量麦谷蛋白（ＨＭＷ－Ｇｌｕ）区域。杂交后代的蛋白质谱带由５ 种类型构成：１．母本型,占全部测试籽粒的２２．６％ ;２．附加型,占１４．３％ ;３．互补型,占１５．５％ ;４．杂种型,占３０．９％ ;５．缺失型,占１６．７％ 。对“矮杆早”ד紫粘”的Ｆ２ 代籽粒进行酯酶同工酶电泳分析发现,变异主要发生在ＥＳＴ－１ 区。由此看来,小麦×玉米的杂合子中玉米染色体在被排除前后,可以诱发小麦染色体组发生遗传变异

Outline structure of the human L1 cell adhesion molecule and the sites where mutations cause neurological disorders.

The L1 cell adhesion molecule has six domains homologous to members of the immunoglobulin superfamily and five homologous to fibronectin type III domains. We determined the outline structure of the L1 domains by showing that they have, at the key sites that determine conformation, residues similar to those in proteins of known structure. The outline structure describes the relative positions of residues, the major secondary structures and residue solvent accessibility. We use the outline structure to investigate the likely effects of 22 mutations that cause neurological diseases. The mutations are not randomly distributed but cluster in a few regions of the structure. They can be divided into those that act mainly by changing conformation or denaturing their domain and those that alter its surface properties.
