The structure of the group-specific polysaccharide of group G Streptococcus was determined by means of methylation analysis and selective chemical degradations. The anomeric configurations and conformations of the sugar residues were studied by 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy. The tetrasaccharide repeating unit, ----3)-alpha-D-Galp-(1----2)-[alpha-L-Rhap-(1----3)-beta-D-GalpNAc - (1----4)]-alpha-L-Rhap-(1----, was determined. 相似文献

A statistical analysis of the nucleotide sequence variability in 14
published hepatitis B virus (HBV) genomes was carried out using parametric
and nonparametric methods. A parametric statistical model revealed that the
different regions of the genome differed significantly in their
variability. The conclusion was supported by a nonparametric kernel-density
model of the HBV genome. Genes S, C, and P, region X, the precore region,
and the pre-S2/pre-S1 regions were ranked in order of increasing
variability. In many instances, conserved regions of the genome identified
with sequences of known function in HBV biology. However, other
characterized regions (such as pre-S) showed much variability despite the
involvement of their encoded peptides in specific functions. Point
mutations that may result in the formation of stop codons and amino acid
changes may affect the clinical picture of HBV infection and may be
reflected in atypical serological patterns.

Genetics of homology-dependent gene silencing in Arabidopsis; a role for methylation 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1

Ninety-eight independent transformed (T1) Arabidopsis plants were generated, containing additional copies of the chalcone synthase (CHS) gene. Three T2 generation families (A, B and C) were found that showed reduced anthocyanin biosynthesis, consistent with homology- dependent gene silencing of CHS. Clonal sectors of tissue showing CHS silencing were seen in the early generations. Affected individuals in family A showed only slight silencing, in family C such plants were almost completely silenced, and in family B affected individuals were intermediate. Plants homozygous for a single silencing insert were isolated from each family. Plants homozygous or hemizygous for insert A showed variable penetrance and expressivity of silencing. Self-fertilization of plants hemizygous for the B and C-inserts suggested that these CHS-silencing inserts each behave as single Mendelian dominant traits. The CHS mRNA of the C-insert homozygotes was reduced to undetectable levels. Outcrosses of B- and C-insert homozygotes to wild-type plants resulted in F1 plants that were variegated. This variegation appears to be due to expression of the CHS allele from the wild-type parent, since use of a CHS mutant, tt4, as untransformed parent resulted in uniform green F1 plants. Southern blots revealed a correlation between DNA methylation and CHS silencing. In addition, derivative plants were generated from C-insert homozygotes that had lost the silencing inserts, and these showed a partial reversion towards wild-type phenotype and methylation of the cellular CHS gene at the TT4 locus. This result suggests that the TT4 copy of CHS became methylated during the C-insert-induced silencing and retained methylation and partial silencing after the silencing T-DNA was lost. 相似文献

Characterization of a selenocystine-resistant carrot cell line : alterations in cystine and sulfate uptake

A selenocystine-resistant carrot cell line, C-1, was isolated from a haploid carrot (Daucus carota) cell culture, HA. The C-1 variant takes up cystine, but not cysteine, more slowly than does HA. The selenocystine resistance is maintained in culture in the absence of selection and is expressed in regenerated plants. Results based on chromatographic separation of sulfur metabolites from cells fed with [35S]cystine suggest a block either in the uptake or reduction of cystine in the variant. Both lines can grow on cystine as sole sulfur source. Growth of the HA line on cystine suppressed the development of sulfate uptake capacity (Furner, Sung 1982 Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 79: 1149-1153), while cystine-grown C-1 cells have high levels of sulfate uptake capacity.
We suggest that the C-1 line, grown on cystine, accumulates an insufficient quantity of some sulfur metabolite, which is involved in the control of sulfate uptake, to suppress the uptake. C-1 grown on cystine is more sensitive than HA to growth inhibition by the sulfate analog selenate.

Plant development is critically dependent on the interactions between clonally unrelated cell layers. The cross-talk between layers can be addressed by studies of cell autonomy. Cell autonomy is a property of genetic mosaics composed of cells of differing genotypes. Broadly, if the phenotype of a mutant tissue reflects only its genotype and is unaffected by the presence of wild-type tissue, the trait is cell-autonomous. Conversely, if the phenotype of a mutant tissue reflects that of wild-type tissue in the mosaic, the trait is non-autonomous. Here we report a novel, versatile and robust method for studies of cell autonomy in Arabidopsis. Cell autonomy (CAUT) lines consist of a collection of homozygous stocks, each containing one of 76 mapped T-DNA inserts, each of which corrects the yellow ch-42 mutant to green ( CH-42 ) by complementation. This has the effect of translocating the colour marker to 76 new locations around the genome. X-irradiation of heterozygous CAUT line seeds results in yellow sectors, with loss of the CH-42 transgene and adjacent wild-type genes. This property can be used to remove the wild-type copy of developmental genes in appropriate heterozygotes, resulting in yellow ( ch-42 ) sectors that are hemizygous for the trait of interest. Such sectors can provide insight into cell autonomy. Experiments using the ap1 , ap3 , ag and clv1 mutants show that CAUT lines are useful in the study of cell autonomy. 相似文献

The flowers and leaves of Arabidopsis are arranged in a spiral with successive organs positioned at intervals of approximately 140°. This simple phyllotaxy determines the organization of the flowers of the inflorescence. Here we describe the analysis of X-ray-induced albino sectors in the L2 layer of the Arabidopsis inflorescence. No evidence was found of lineage restrictions within the inflorescence meristem. Comparison of the spatial relationships between albino and green tissue in the sepals of 43 chimeric inflorescences allowed the generation of a three-dimensional fate map. The map relates the initiation of flowers in the plant apex to their final arrangement. The map was found to be a shallow dome with phyllotaxy superimposed on its surface. A similar map was prepared of the floral buttress and this was found to be a ridge with sepal primordia at its edges. Unlike other fate maps of plants these maps relate the relative positions and sizes of organ primordia in terms of the frequency with which they are of the same somatic phenotype, and not the number of cells giving rise to them. 相似文献

Agaricus bisporus grew well in submerged culture in a medium containing malt extract, phosphate, and casein. Moderate growth occurred in defined
media containing glucose, asparagine, phenylalanine, vitamins and minerals. Other amino acids did not stimulate growth.
Growth was stimulated by vegetable oils, partly due to utilization of the oils, and partly to a more complex mechanism. Oleates
had the same effect as vegetable oils; palmitates a lesser one. In shaken flasks maximum yield was reached after 22–24 days
and in stirred and aerated fermentors after 8–10 days. Besides dry weight of mycelium, laccase activity was determined. The
latter determination is suitable for a rapid estimation of the growth in routine experiments.
The flavour of the mycelium was like that of mushrooms but weaker. It was strongest in standing liquid cultures and on solid
media. The mycelium grown in submerged culture was suitable as spawn for mushroom culture.

Society for Microbiology, Rotterdam, 8 December 1971.
