甜椒花药绒毡层的二型性及其组织化学研究

在甜椒（Capsicum annuum L.)中,靠近花粉中部的绒毡层自药隔产生,由较大的细胞组成,而花药外部区域的其余的绒毡层细胞较小,来自于初生壁层,前者的细胞具有大液泡和较大的细胞核,甲基绿－派罗宁和汞－溴酚蓝染色反应较后者弱,在造孢组织时期,二者液泡内都含有较大的球形的酸性磷酸酶颗粒,在以后的发育中,这种颗粒消失,在减数分裂时期,两种绒毡层的DNA,RNA和蛋白质合成活动增强,来自药隔的绒毡层积累了更多的DNA,绒毡层在解体时酸性磷本酶活性很高,两种不同的绒毡层退化过程相似,在全部发育过程中绒毡层内无淀粉粒。     

鼻蝇亚科分族的探讨并记二新种(双翅目:丽蝇科)

鼻蝇亚科(Rhiniinae)是双翅目丽蝇科(Calliphoridae)中比较特殊的一大类群,因此也有人把它从丽蝇科分出,独立成科的。其特征有口上片突出如鼻状,后头上部大半是裸出的,约占整个头的宽度的范围内连粉被也缺如;r脉的上方沿后侧有一列明晰的小刚毛,翅下大结节上无立纤毛,下腋瓣裸。主要分布在东洋区、非洲区、大洋洲区以及古北区南缘。目前全世界已知有22个属,近300种,曾有报道其幼虫寄生于白蚁巢内及蝗     

中水技术污水处理工艺去除病毒的效果

中水技术开发既可缓解水资源的紧缺,又能改善城市环境。本文报道用石英粉吸附/洗脱和浓缩棒脱水的二步浓集水病毒技术(回收率为25.4～37.3％),研究中水技术不同处理工艺去除病毒的效果。结果,二级处理可去除掺入病毒的98.9％,结合三级处理的混凝沉淀和过滤,可去除99.976％,再加活性炭吸附或加氯消毒,所得中水分别去除掺入病毒的99.986％和99.991％。经首都机场中水道试验厂水样检测表明,中水中未检测到病毒(<0.23PFU/L)。     

单纯疱疹病毒分子生物学分型方法的研究

联合运用HSV-1和HSV-2型特异性核酸探针对28株HSV临床分离株做了鉴定分型,并与应用HSV型特异性单克隆抗体的三种免疫学方法的检测结果进行了比较。核酸探针与单克隆抗体之间的符合率为100%,但分型率不同,核酸探针为100%,单克隆抗体为64—82%。研究结果表明,本实验所建立的HSV-McAb-APAAP桥联免疫酶染技术具有简便、敏感、实用的特点。     

Dependence of reaction rate of 5,5′-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) to free sulfhydryl groups of bovine serum albumin and ovalbumin on the protein conformations

The effect of protein conformations on the reaction rate of Ellman's reagent, 5,5-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) with sulfhydryl (SH) groups of proteins was examined. The stopped-flow method was applied to follow the reaction of DTNB with SH group of two proteins, bovine serum albumin (BSA) and ovalbumin (OVA), at various concentrations of guanidine hydrochloride and urea. The rates for both the proteins were faster in guanidine than in urea. The rate sharply depended on the protein conformations, which were monitored by changes of helix contents on the basis of the circular dichroism measurements. The reaction rate of DTNB with SH groups of BSA was maximal around 2 M guanidine and 5 M urea. On the other hand, the reaction rate of DTNB with OVA was maximal at 3.5 M guanidine, while it gradually increased with an increase in the urea concentration. The amount of reactive SH group participating in the reaction with DTNB was also estimated by the absorbance change at 412 nm. The magnitudes of absorbance change for the reaction with free SH groups of OVA at low concentrations of the denaturants were appreciably smaller than those for BSA with one free SH group. Most of the four SH groups of OVA might react with DTNB above 5 M guanidine, although only a part of them did even at 9 M urea.     

The reconciliation behavior of golden monkeys (Rhinopithecus roxellanae roxellanae) in small breeding groups

Observations were made following 130 spontaneous aggressive incidents in two small breeding groups of captive golden monkeys (Rhinopithecus roxellanae roxellanae). Participants were observed both during the first 10 min following these incidents and during matched control observations. An increased contact rate was observed between opponents following the aggressive incident. Post-conflict contacts were characterized by a number of behavior patterns: open mouth, rapid grooming, embrace, and crouching. Adult males played an important role as mediator in agonistic disputes among females: males intervened in 93.6% of female fights. It is speculated that this intervention behavior is related to the species' organization into one-male units.     

Evidence that the G1-S and G2-M transitions are controlled by different cdc2 proteins in higher eukaryotes.

Xenopus eggs contain two distinct cdc2 homologs of 34 and 32 kd. We show that the 32 kd cdc2 protein, like the 34 kd protein, is a kinase. However, unlike the 34 kd homolog, the 32 kd cdc2 kinase activity does not decrease dramatically at the end of mitosis. The 32 kd protein does not associate with mitotic cyclins B1 and B2 but does associate with cyclin A and a novel doublet of proteins of 54 kd that may regulate its activity. We also show that depletion of the 32 kd cdc2 homolog from a Xenopus extract blocks DNA replication, but does not inhibit entry into mitosis. By contrast, depletion of the 34 kd cdc2 homolog or absence of mitotic cyclins from an extract does not inhibit replication, but does block entry into mitosis. Our results indicate that in higher eukaryotes, DNA replication (G1-S) and mitosis (G2-M) may be controlled by distinctly different cdc2 proteins.
