Mitochondrial DNA and bindin gene sequence evolution among allopatric species of the sea urchin genus Arbacia 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
Sea urchins of the genus Arbacia (order Stirodonta) have discontinuous
allopatric distributions ranging over thousands of kilometers.
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences were used to reconstruct phylogenetic
relationships of four Arbacia species and their geographic populations.
There is little evidence of genetic structuring of populations within
species, except in two cases at range extremes. The mtDNA sequence
differentiation between species suggests that divergence occurred about 4-9
MYA. Gene sequences encoding the sperm protein bindin and its intron were
obtained and compared with the mtDNA phylogeny. Sea urchins among the
well-studied echinoid order Camarodonta, with degrees of mtDNA divergence
similar to those of Arbacia species, are known to have remarkable variation
in bindin. However, in Arbacia, little variation in deduced amino acid
sequences of bindin was found, indicating that purifying selection acts on
the protein. In contrast, bindin intron sequences showed much
differentiation, including numerous insertion/deletions. Fertilization
experiments performed between a divergent pair of Arbacia species from the
Atlantic and Pacific Oceans revealed no evidence of blocks to gamete
recognition. In Arbacia, fertilization specificities may have evolved
relatively slowly as a result of extensive gene flow within species,
greater functional constraint on the bindin polypeptide, or reduced
selective pressure for species recognition in singly occurring species.

Females of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus differ in the structures of their egg jelly sulfated fucans 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The egg jelly coats of sea urchins contain sulfated fucans which bind to a
sperm surface receptor glycoprotein to initiate the signal transduction
events resulting in the sperm acrosome reaction. The acrosome reaction is
an ion channel regulated exocytosis which is an obligatory event for sperm
binding to, and fusion with, the egg. Approximately 90% of individual
females of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus spawned eggs having
only one of two possible sulfated fucan electrophoretic isotypes, a slow
migrating (sulfated fucan I), or a fast migrating (sulfated fucan II)
isotype. The remaining 10% of females spawned eggs having both sulfated
fucan isotypes. The two sulfated fucan isotypes were purified from egg
jelly coats and their structures determined by NMR spectroscopy and
methylation analysis. Both sulfated fucans are linear polysaccharides
composed of 1-->3-linked alpha-L-fucopyranosyl units. Sulfated fucan I
is entirely sulfated at the O -2 position but with a heterogeneous
sulfation pattern at O -4 position. Sulfated fucan II is composed of a
regular repeating sequence of 3 residues, as follows: [3-alpha-L-Fuc p -
2,4(OSO3)-1-->3-alpha-L-Fuc p -4(OSO3)-1-->3-alpha-L-Fuc p -4(OSO3)-
1]n. Both purified sulfated fucans have approximately equal potency in
inducing the sperm acrosome reaction. The significance of two structurally
different sulfated fucans in the egg jelly coat of this species could
relate to the finding that the sperm receptor protein which binds sulfated
fucan contains two carbohydrate recognition modules of the C-type lectin
variety which differ by 50% in their primary structure.

Effect of thallium (TlNO3) on the ATPase activity and transmembrane potential (Dj) of bacteria with different levels of resistance to this metal has been studied. The hypothesis has been made that the resistance biochemical mechanism is based on the energy transformation systems in the cell. 相似文献

It is shown that Mg2+, Ca2+-ATPase activity of plasma membrane fragments from the rat small intestine myocytes is inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoate and dithionitrobenzoate (50 and 90%, respectively). The effect of p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibition is removed by serum albumin promoting a rise in the ATPase activity of the plasma membranes and shifting the temperature maximum point up to 32 degrees C (in the norm the maximum is observed at 36 degrees C). According to the data presented, albumin changes the composition and phase state of the lipid surrounding of the membrane enzymes. 相似文献

Optimal conditions for protoplasting of the Streptomyces rimosus industrial strain No. 1 producing oxytetracycline were developed. Observation of the early stages of the protoplast regeneration in microchambers showed that there were two regeneration types: normal and anomalous. The latter was likely defined by the glycine effect on cell wall synthesis. It was accompanied by the stage in which the protoplasts had the form of multiplying protoplast-like cells. The protoplasting of the S. rimosus culture producing oxytetracycline resulted in an increase in the variability of an antibiotic producing property and the frequency of low active variants. 相似文献

The transconjugate containing hybrid plasmid (Te(R)Zn(R)lux+) was obtained using the conjugation method on Pseudomonasfragi T2(5) (Te(R)ZnR) strain and bioluminescent strain Protobacterium phosphoreum B7071 (lux+). The expression regulation of lux-genes on the obtained plasmid is carried out by promotor-operational area conjointly with zinc resistance genes. The cells of the obtained genetically modified bacteria have the ability to specific induced luminescence, which is a respond to zinc ions' presence in the measuring medium. It was shown that the cells' bioluminescence intensity of trans-conjugate is linearly dependent on zinc ions' concentration within the range of 1-100 microM, that provides the opportunity of using biosensor as a strain for qualitative and quantitative detection of the metal. The low sensitivity limit of this method is 0.5 microM for the metal. Besides having high sensitivity, the developed lux-biosensor is highly specified. 相似文献

A method is offered for isolation of subcellular fractions from small intestinal smooth muscle cells enriched by plasma membranes (PM). The method is based on differential centrifugation over sucrose density gradient. According to the localization of marker enzymes, the membrane fraction obtained with the use of 30% sucrose is considered to be optimal. The PM fraction is superior to the homogenate 10-fold on the average in the magnitude of Na, K-ATPase, 17-fold in Mg2+-ATPase, and 15-fold in that of 5'-nucleotidase activity. ATPase of PM is activated by Ca2+ in micro- and millimolar concentrations. It is suggested that Mg2+-dependent Ca-activated ATPase of PM is related to the Ca2+ content control in the cell. 相似文献

The effects of arsenic in the forms of arsenite and arsenate on bacterial growth and plasma membranes' ATPase activity was studied. Correlation of the rate of ATP hydrolysis was found to be correlated with bacterial resistance to toxic arsenic ions. Detoxification of arsenate by resistant cultures of bacteria was suggested to be related to an increase in bacterial ATPase activity and the degree of ATPase mobilization. 相似文献

The inhibition effect of ionic lead on membrane ATPase activity, transmembrane potential (delta psi) and permeability level of the Pb-sensitive P. fluorescens B894 and Pb-resistant P. fluorescens B4252 bacteria cells have been studied. It have been shown that decreasing ATPase activity and transmembrane potential values and the increasing of permeability by lead are higher for Pb-sensitive strain then for Pb-resistant. It is suggested that mechanism of the ionic lead toxic effect deals with plasma membrane biochemical parameters (ATPase activity, value of delta psi) alterations and interruption of it barrier function. 相似文献
