白蜡虫碱性磷酸酶功能基团的研究

白蜡ricerus pela雌成虫经匀浆,正丁醇抽提,硫酸铵分段盐析,SephadexG-150凝胶过滤等步骤,得到比活力为136.65U/mg蛋白酶制品,用苯甲基磺酰氟、N-溴代琥珀酰亚胺、三硝基苯磺酸、二巯基苏糖醇、对氯汞苯甲酸、琥珀酸酐、溴乙酸、碘乙酸等化学修饰剂在一定条件下选择修饰白蜡虫碱性磷酸酶的几种氨基酸残基,并测定酶活力变化。结果表明：苯甲基磺酰氟、N-溴代琥珀酰亚胺、三硝基苯磺酸、琥珀酸酐、二巯基苏糖醇的修饰能显著抑制酶的活力,活力的降低与修饰剂的浓度有关,氯汞苯甲酸、溴乙酸、碘乙酸的修饰对酶的抑制作用影响较小。初步认为：丝氨酸、赖氨酸和色氨酸残基是白蜡虫碱性磷酸酶的必需功能基团,部分二硫键也是酶的催化功能所必需的。

中国新疆野苹果天然群体遗传多样性SSR分析

摘要：本研究以新疆巩留、新源、霍城、托里4个居群下的12个新疆野苹果群体为材料,应用涉及12个连锁群的17对SSR引物进行了群体微卫星位点等位基因和基因型差异分析,从地理居群、海拔高度、引物类型角度对新疆野苹果天然群体遗传多样性和遗传结构进行了 探索。结果表明：17对SSR引物在新疆野苹果中种内多态位点百分率达100%;XY1、HC2群体的基因多样性较高。聚类结果显示,同一居群下的群体分在相同的组中;巩留居群与新源居群的遗传关系最近,霍城居群次之,托里居群最远。不同地区间遗传多样性,霍城居群最高,托里居群最低。海拔高度对群体遗传结构影响较小,除了观测杂合度与海拔存在弱正相关外,大多数遗传参数与海拔无相关性。新疆野苹果群体内变异大于群体间,群体间分化很小,基因流较高。

曲古抑菌素A对体外培养牛成纤维细胞组蛋白乙酰化和甲基化的影响

Trichostatin A(TSA)是一种特异的组蛋白去乙酰化酶抑制剂。研究显示,TSA可以特异地抑制组蛋白去乙酰化酶活性,提高细胞的组蛋白乙酰化水平,激活基因的表达。但是,目前还不是很清楚TSA处理是否对组蛋白甲基化产生影响。本研究以成纤维细胞为研究对象,利用免疫细胞化学技术及激光共聚焦显微镜,探讨了TSA处理体细胞对其组蛋白乙酰化及甲基化修饰的影响。结果显示,随TSA浓度增加,体细胞形态发生明显的改变,细胞变得扁平且核区较大,处理后组蛋白H4K8位点的乙酰化水平随着TSA浓度的增加明显提高。检测组蛋白H3上两个甲基化位点发现,随组蛋白乙酰化水平的增加,H3K4位点的三甲基化（H3K4me3）水平也显著提高。但是,对于H3K9的二甲基化水平（H3K9me2）则没有明显变化。以上结果显示,TSA的处理不仅可以提高体细胞的组蛋白乙酰化水平,同时也增加了与基因表达激活相关组蛋白修饰位点的甲基化水平,但是对于与沉默基因相关的组蛋白修饰位点则没有明显的影响。     

Microbial transformation of ginsenoside Rb1 by Rhizopus stolonifer and Curvularia lunata

Of 49 microbial strains screened for their capabilities to transform ginsenoside Rb₁, Rhizopus stolonifer and Curvularia lunata produced four key metabolites: 3-O-[-d-glucopyranosyl-(1,2)--d-glucopyranosyl]- 20-O-[-d-glucopyranosyl]-3,12, 20(S)-trihydroxydammar-24-ene (1), 3-O-[-d-glucopyranosyl-(1,2)--d- glucopyranosyl]-20-O-[-d-glucopyranosyl]-3,12, 20(S)-trihydroxydammar-24-ol (2), 3-O-[-d-gluco- pyranosyl-(1,2)--d-glucopyranosyl]-3, 12, 20(S)-trihydroxydammar-24-ene (3), and 3-O--d-glucopyranosyl-3, 12, 20(S)-trihydroxydammar-24-ene (4), identified by TOF-MS, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectral data. Metabolites 1, 3 and 4 were from the incubation with R. stolonifer, and 1 and 2 from the incubation with C. lunata. Compound 2 was identified as a new compound.     

Effects of Fragmentation of Evergreen Broad-leaved Forests on Genetic Diversity of Ardisia Crenata var. Bicolor (Myrsinaceae)

Due to the long generation times and high densities, dominant tree species usually did not respond consistently with theoretical predictions to the recent fragmentation. Genetic structures of shrubs and herbs, especially those with low densities, may be more sensitive to forest fragmentation. We studied the genetic structure of a self-compatible subshrub, Ardisia crenata var. bicolor (Myrsinaceae) in a recently fragmented landscape. Ten RAPD primers used for analysis generated a total of 76 bands. We found that A. c. var. bicolor had relatively low species-level (P₉₅ = 63.2%; H = 0.106; Shannon diversity index (SI) = 0.246) and within-population diversity (P₉₅ = 5.3−46.1%; H = 0.026−0.175; SI = 0.032−0.253), and significant population differentiation (G_ST = 0.445). Significantly positive relationships were found between measures of diversity (P₉₅, H and SI) and the log of estimated population size. No significant relationship was observed between Nei's genetic distance and spatial distance of pairwise populations, indicating no isolation-by-distance. Given most species of forests are shrubs and herbs with short generation times, our observation indicated that distinct genetic consequences of recent fragmentation may be expected for quite a number of plant species.
