流行性出血热病毒R22株cDNA克隆及其特异性鉴定

用家鼠型流行性出血热病毒R22株RNA,经polyA接尾,以Oligo-dT做引物,合成cDNA。用pUC18为载体转染E.coli Mc1061,建立cDNA克隆。再经菌落杂交,选择病毒特异性的5个阳性克隆制成缺口翻译探针,与病毒RNA3个片段进行反杂交,确定RNA片段的特异性。结果表明,3个克隆为中(M)片段的cDNA,另两个分别为大(L)和小(S)片段cDNA。核苷酸序列分析证明,克隆的DNA中含病毒特异的核苷酸序列。     

St14/TaqⅠRFLPs在甲型血友病基因探测与产前基因诊断中的应用

<正> 甲型血友病是最常见的遗传性凝血疾病,是由于凝血因子Ⅷ(FVⅢ)基因缺陷所致。目前对此病尚无满意的治疗方法。利用DNA分析技术进行甲型血友病基因检测与产前基因诊断对开展优生优育有重要的实际应用价值。由于FⅧ基因组织结构庞大,分子病理改变复杂,目前多采用DNA限制酶片段长度多态性(RFLPs)为遗传标志对有缺陷的FⅧ基因进行连锁分析。St 14(DXS52)是人X染色体长臂远端的一段基因外DNA序列,与FⅧ基因紧密连锁。国外已将St14/Taq Ⅰ RFLPs用于甲型血友病基因携带者的检测,但尚未见到用于产前基因诊断的报道。我们利用引进的St14片段为探针,采用简化的低脂奶粉杂交体系和DNA凝胶原     

The effects of temperature and pH on the ethanol tolerance of the wine yeasts, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida stellata and Kloeckera apiculata

The influences of temperature and pH on the survival and growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida stellata and Kloeckera apiculata were examined in the presence of ethanol concentrations between 2.5 and 15% v/v. At 15°C, the maximum concentrations of ethanol permitting the growth of S. cerevisiae, C. stellata and K. apiculata were 15%, 11% and 9%, respectively. These maximum concentrations were decreased at 10°C and 30°C. Cells of S. cerevisiae showed no loss in viability when incubated for 12 d at 10°C or 15°C in the presence of 15% ethanol but showed some loss at 30°C. Cells of C. stellata were tolerant of 12.5% ethanol at 10°C and 15°C but not at 30°C. Cells of K. apiculata were tolerant of 10–12.5% ethanol at 15°C but not at 10°C or 30°C. Sensitivity of the yeast cells to ethanol was marginally increased on decreasing the pH from 6-0 to 3–0.     

Induction by Electric Currents of Ethylene Biosynthesis in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) Fruit

The effects of an electric current on ethylene biosynthesis were investigated in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) fruit that were producing almost no ethylene. Direct currents at 0.5 to 3.0 milliamperes induced much ethylene synthesis, with a rapid continuous increase in the rate, which reached a peak within 5 to 6 hours and then decreased. The rate of production was greater with a stronger current. Ethylene production was not observed after the use of a sine-wave alternating current (60 hertz) at 3 milliamperes, the magnitude at which a direct current had the greatest effect. The activity of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) synthase and ethylene forming enzyme (EFE) increased before the rise in ethylene production. ACC synthase and EFE were activated sixfold and fourfold, respectively, by 2 hours. The concentration of ACC increased linearly up to 6 hours and then decreased. Ethylene induction by an electric current was suppressed almost completely by the infiltration of the cucumbers with 5 millimolar aminooxyacetic acid, an inhibitor of ACC synthase, and was also suppressed 70% by 5 millimolar salicylic acid, an inhibitor of EFE. The results indicate that the ethylene induced by the direct current was synthesized via the ACC-ethylene pathway as a result of electrical stress, a new kind of stress to be identified.

松辽盆地白垩纪微体浮游植物群及其环境讨论

该文报道了松辽盆地白垩纪丰富的非海相微体浮游植物群,主要是沟鞭藻类及一些绿藻和疑源类;论述了藻类的生物地层特征,自下而上初步划分出10个组合带;结合微量元素和古地磁等资料,较详细地讨论了含微体浮游植物组段的沉积环境,认为松辽盆地在白垩纪至少遭受过两次重要的海侵(分别在青山口组一段及嫩江组一、二段沉积时期),导致古松辽湖泊五种不同水体环境的演替,指出微体浮游植物组合的变化是受古盐度、古温度和古水深等因素控制的。此外,对有关组段的地质时代也进行了讨论,进一步补充了新的浮游植物化石证据。     

光合能量代谢对C_3植物光呼吸的调节作用

C_3植物光呼吸与光合作用关系受光合能量代谢状况的调节。在外界无CO_2和照光条件下,贮藏性光合产物经某种转化途径能“回迁”光合与光呼吸碳循环并显著地受到光合能量代谢的影响。在无CO_2或低CO_2浓度、高光强条件下,此碳素“回迁”过程对协调光合能量代谢与光合碳素代谢平衡,可能起重要作用。     

用三维图象量测卵裂前蛙卵膜分子的三维运动

两栖类卵第一次卵裂前,缩时电影显示出卵表面有收缩波。由于卵的体积未变,在收缩时卵的高度必然增加。Sawai(1978)利用棱镜侧面摄取了蝾螈卵轮廓的高度变化,证实了卵裂前卵最高处的高度确有增加。但这一方法不能测知整个卵表面各处的高度变化,而且仅是二维的。在林蛙卵上,我们用荧光漂白恢复技术发现第一次卵裂前卵表面分子有规律性的流动,推测这是卵球的张弛。为了进一步     

Grape pomace: A novel substrate for microbial production of citric acid

Summary Grape pomace was used as substrate for microbial production of citric acid. Of the five cultures examined,Aspergillus niger NRRL 567 was found to produce the greatest amount of citric acid from grape pomace in the presence of methanol at a concentration of 3% (vol/wt). The yield was 60% based on the amount of fermentable sugar consumed.
