Parametric study of diethyl phthalate biodegradation

Summary The effects of temperature, dissolved oxygen, and other environmental parameters under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions were investigated using one aerobic and one facultative strain isolated from wastewater treatment plant sludge. Among other results, we found that low dissolved oxygen levels and low temperatures decreased the rate of DEP degradation and the growth rate, and that the facultative strain was much less affected by the lower DO concentrations than the aerobic strain.     

农业生态系统中新物种引进的初步探讨

在现有的农业生态系统中,引进某些新物种,往往可以使整个系统的功能发生变化。如果新物种引进得当,则可产生良好的效果,系统功能得以改善,效益提高;反之,则会造成人力、物力、财力的损失,削弱系统的功能,甚至可能遗患无穷。因此,对农业生态系统中

Cloning of the nupC gene of Escherichia coli encoding a nucleoside transport system, and identification of an adjacent Insertion element, IS 186

Escherichia coli is known to contain more than one active transport system for nucleoside uptake. In the present study we report the sequence of a gene encoding a second nucleoside transport system, nupC (in addition to nupG.) An open reading frame (ORF) of 1200bp was identified that codes for a hydrophobic polypeptide of 43 560 Da and an NupC fusion protein was shown to be membrane associated. The native NupC protein is also identified, following over-expression. NupC exhibits short regions of homology to several membrane-associated proteins, including LacY and Cyd. Analysis of the nupC promoter region revealed the presence of at least two putative CRP-binding sites, centred at–40bp and–89bp, which probably flank a CytR-binding site. In addition, an adjacent IS186 element was identified and found to reside within a putative terminator structure, downstream from the nupC ORF. This arrangement is shown to reflect the previously established gene order on the E. coli chromosome.     

在中国壮族家系中发现的一例-α~T/-α~Q复合β~0β~0珠蛋白基因型

本文报道在我国广西隆林壮族中发现一个罕見的HbQ复合α,β地中海贫血家系。先证者女,18岁,贫血面容,肝脾肿大。化学结构分析确证本Hb变异体为HbQ Thailand[α74(EF3)Asp→His]。血红蛋白组成以及α和β珠蛋白基因分析结果表明,先证者的珠蛋白基因型为-α~Q/-α~T复合β°/β°(IVSI-1G→T/Codon17A→T);先证者父的基因型为-‘α~Q/-复合β~O/β~A(IVSI-1G→T/β~A);先证母的基因型为-α~T/αα复合β~O/β~A(Codon17A→T/β~A)。     

大鼠肝癌中α_2-巨球蛋白等几种分泌性蛋白基因表达的变化

用Northern blot方法对二乙基亚硝胺所诱发的大鼠肝癌中内源性蛋白酶抑制因子α_2-巨球蛋白(α_2-M)、非特异性免疫抑制剂α_1-酸性糖蛋白(α_1-AGP)及雄性激素正调控的α-2u球蛋白(α-2u)三种分泌性蛋白基因表达情况进行了分析。结果表明在大部分(14/16)肝癌样品中α_2-M RNA水平显著降低;而α_1-AGP RNA水平显著高于正常对照水平;α-2u RNA水平明显下降,但在某些雄性大鼠肝癌样品中该基因却有一定程度的表达。这些结果说明,一些肿瘤宿主血浆中α_2-M水平的显著下降及α_1-AGP水平的明显升高分别是由于基因表达活性的下降及升高所致。α-2u基因表达的异常提示,在癌变过程中机体的内分泌功能发生了某些变化。
