玉米根细胞中对钒酸盐敏感的H~＋－泵的研究

用奎吖咽（ｑｕｉｎａｃｒｉｎｅ）作荧光指标剂,测定玉米（ＺｅａｍａｙｓＬ．）根尖微粒体（ＭＩＣ）膜囊泡的Ｈ~＋－泵活性,结果表明１ｍｍｏｌ／ＬＮａＮ_３仅抑制该泵活性约８％,而０．８ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ钒酸盐（Ｖａｎ）则可抑制其活性达８０％,说明ＭＩＣ制剂中Ｈ~＋－泵活性主要由质膜（ＰＭ）Ｈ~＋－ＡＴＰａｓｅ产生。此泵活性严格需要Ｍｇ~（２＋）,二价阳离子作用大小的顺序为Ｍｇ~（２＋）＞Ｍｎ~（２＋）＞Ｚｎ~（２＋）＞Ｃａ~（２＋）＝０;阴离子作用大小的１顺序为Ｂｒ~－＞Ｃｌ~－＞ＮＯ_３~－＞ＳＯ_４~（２－）,并初步证实当质膜同侧发生电子传递时,没有跨膜Ｈ~＋梯度（△μＨ~＋）生成。     

人血红细胞酪氨酸蛋白磷酸酶（PTPP）的研究Ⅱ·胞浆PTPP的分离纯化及其主要性质

人血红细胞胞浆部分经（ＮＨ_４）_２ＳＯ_４沉淀,ＤＥＡＥ－纤维素（ＤＥ５２）柱层析,磷酸纤维素柱层析（Ｐ１１）得到部分纯化的ＰＴＰＰ,产率：５．７％,提纯１０７５倍。以（３２）￣Ｐ－Ｔｙｒ－Ｐｏｌｙ（Ｇ_４：Ｔ）作底物,测得其表征Ｋｍ约为０．５－０．８μｍｏｌ／Ｌ,该酶的最适ｐＨ和最适温度分别为７．０－７．８及３７－４０℃。Ｚｎ￣（２＋）等二价金属离子及Ｎａ_３ＶＯ_４等酸根基团对其活性有明显的抑制作用;ＥＤＴＡ、甘油及ＤＴＴ、巯基乙醇等则对其有强烈激活作用;而氟化物、酒石酸等对ＰＴＰＰ活性基本无影响。此外,某些蛋白质、氨基酸、核苷酸及抗肿瘤药物等对ＰＴＰＰ活性也都有不同程度的影响。特别是一些ＰＫｓ及ＰＰｓ在体外对ＰＴＰＰ活性也具有不同的作用。     

人血红细胞蛋白质酪氨酸磷酸酶（PTPP）的研究Ⅰ·PTPP在红细胞胞浆和膜中的分布及其影响因素

通过测定红细胞胞浆及膜中的ＰＴＰＰ活性,发现人正常血红细胞中胞浆ＰＴＰＰ活性约占红细胞ＰＴＰＰ总活性的７０－８０％,膜中只有约２０－３０％的ＰＴＰＰ活性。很多因素诸如：病变、ＰＨ值、温度、离子强度、细胞贮存时间以及药物等,对ＰＴＰＰ在胞浆与膜中的分布有影响。可以推测：膜上的ＰＴＰＰ能通过某种机制解离下来,进入胞浆;相反的过程,胞浆中的ＰＴＰＰ也能通过某种机制与膜结合。这种偶联与去偶联的具体机制及其生理功能还有待进一步探索。     

Fed-batch cultivation of recombinant escherichia coli JM103 and production of the fusion protein SPA::EcoRI in a 60-L working volume airlift tower loop reactor

SPA::EcoRI fusion protein was produced by Escherichia coli JM103 carrying the multicopy expression plasmid pMTC48, the multicopy repressor plasmid pRK248, and the multicopy protection plasmid pEcoR4 in a 60-L working volume airlift tower loop reactor on M9 minimal medium with glucose. Cell mass concentration, total cell count, number of colony-forming units, specific growth rate, yield coefficient, and metabolite (acetate, pyruvate, succinate, lactate, ethanol) concentrations were monitored during the growth phase and gene expression. Gene expression was induced by temperature shift or chemically by isopropyl-thiogalactosidase in the airlift tower loop reactor (ALTR) at constant cultivation time and in a small stirred tank reactor at different cultivation times. During induction, the cultivation medium was supplemented with concentrated Luria-Bertani (LB) medium. The intracellular enzyme activity was evaluated as a function of the time after the start of the induction. It was found that the reduction of the glucose concentration and increase of the dissolved oxygen concentration reduced the acetate produced and increased the intracellular enzyme activity.

盐酸胍诱导的α淀粉酶去折叠与再折叠

利用蛋白质内源荧光和酶活性两种信号以及荧光偏振,HPLC和停流等方法研究了盐酸胍诱导的α淀粉酶去折叠与重折叠的平衡转变和动力学。实验结果表明α淀粉酶去折叠与重折叠是两个不同的过程;变性与复性过程中可能伴有聚集体生成;去折叠与重折叠均为双相过程,重折叠大约始于2秒之后。     

五种高山藏医药用植物茎叶的结构特征研究

通过对青藏高原东北部３８００ｍ至５１００ｍ处生长的五种高山藏医药用植物茎叶的解剖观察发现,这些植物的叶表皮单层,气孔不下陷,但叶肉中的栅栏细胞多层,有的叶表面密被表皮毛、角质膜厚,茎叶中普遍形成发达的通气组织。这些特征是高寒地区空气稀薄、气温低、日照辐射强等外界条件长期作用的结果。     

猫纹状皮层神经元整合野亚区结构和亚区间的空间总合特性

用正弦调制的光栅图形研究了猫纹状皮层神经元传统感受野外区域(整合野)的亚区结构,整合野不同亚区的作用可表现为抑制或易化。根据端区和侧区的作用性质,整合野有4种不同的结构形式。在端区和侧区的内部以及在这两个区域之间,空间总合显示非线性特性。其非线性程度随刺激面积的增加而变大,表明在整合野的亚区内和亚区间存在着相互抑制。

Antitumor agents-CLXXV. Anti-tubulin action of (+)-thiocolchicine prepared by partial synthesis

(+)-Thiocolchicine (2b) was prepared from (±)-colchicine (1) in a five-step reaction sequence that included chromatographic separation of appropriate camphanylated diastereomers. Acid hydrolysis of the (+)-diastereomer, followed by acetylation, yielded the desired product 2b. (+)-Thiocolchicine has 15-fold lower inhibitory activity against tubulin polymerization than (−)-thiocolchicine, and is 29-fold less potent for inhibiting growth of human Burkitt lymphoma cells. The enantiomer 2a, prepared from the (−)-camphanylated diastereomer, had potent activity in all assays comparable to that of (−)-thiocolchicine prepared by other methods. These results support the hypothesis that the proper configuration of colchicine-related compounds is an important requirement for their anti-tubulin action.
