Sequencing of the rice genome has provided a platform for functional genomics research of rice and other cereal species. However, multiple approaches are needed to determine the functions of its genes and sequences and to use the genome sequencing results for genetic improvement of cereal crops. Here, we report a plant-transformation-competent, binary bacterial artificial chromosome (BIBAC) and bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) based map of rice to facilitate these studies. The map was constructed from 20 835 BIBAC and BAC clones, and consisted of 579 overlapping BIBAC/BAC contigs. To facilitate functional analysis of chromosome 8 genomic sequence and cloning of the genes and QTLs mapped to the chromosome, we anchored the chromosomal contigs to the existing rice genetic maps. The chromosomal map consists of 11 contigs, 59 genetic markers, and 36 sequence tagged sites, spanning a total of ca. 38 Mb in physical length. Comparative analysis between the genetic and physical maps of chromosome 8 showed that there are 3 "hot" and 2 "cold" spots of genetic recombination along the chromosomal arms in addition to the "cold spot" in the centromeric region, suggesting that the sequence component contents of a chromosome may affect its local genetic recombination frequencies. Because of its plant transformability, the BIBAC/BAC map could provide a platform for functional analysis of the rice genome sequence and effective use of the sequencing results for gene and QTL cloning and molecular breeding. 相似文献

Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) has emerged as an important tool for studying nucleo-cytoplasmic interactions and cloning of animals whose oocytes are difficult to obtain. This study was designed to explore the feasibility of employing transgenic fibroblasts as donor cells for iSCNT. The study examined the chromatin morphology, in vitro development, and expression of an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene in porcine- and bovine-cloned embryos produced by iSCNT of fetal fibroblast transfected with a pLNbeta-EGFP retroviral vector. Parthenogenetic and transfected or nontransfected intraspecies SCNT embryos were used as controls for comparison. Analysis of data revealed that xenogenic oocyte was able to reprogram somatic cells of different genus and supports their in vitro development to the blastocyst stage. However, the developmental rates of transgenic iSCNT embryos to the blastocyst stage were significantly lower than those of intraspecies SCNT embryos. The reduction in development rates was however, not due to integration of the transgene as the lower (P < 0.05) development rates of the intraspecies SCNT porcine or bovine embryos did not differ between transgenic and nontransgenic groups. Expression of EGFP was observed in 100% of blastocysts and mosaicism was not observed. Furthermore, after iSCNT of porcine or bovine donor nuclei into xenogenic ooplasm, patterns of nuclear remodeling in reconstructed embryos were similar. In conclusion, our data demonstrated the feasibility of producing transgenic iSCNT embryos. To our knowledge, this is the first report of transgenic cloned embryo production by iSCNT approach. In the future, this may provide a powerful research tool for studying developmental events in domestic animals and provide marked cell lines for other genetic manipulations. 相似文献

Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis (Chinese cabbage) is an economically important crop and a model plant for studies on polyploidization and phenotypic evolution. To gain an insight into the structure of the B. rapa genome we analyzed 12,017 BAC-end sequences for the presence of transposable elements (TEs), SSRs, centromeric satellite repeats and genes, and similarity to the closely related genome of Arabidopsis thaliana. TEs were estimated to occupy 14% of the genome, with 12.3% of the genome represented by retrotransposons. It was estimated that the B. rapa genome contains 43,000 genes, 1.6 times greater than the genome of A. thaliana. A number of centromeric satellite sequences, representing variations of a 176-bp consensus sequence, were identified. This sequence has undergone rapid evolution within the B. rapa genome and has diverged among the related species of Brassicaceae. A study of SSRs demonstrated a non-random distribution with a greater abundance within predicted intergenic regions. Our results provide an initial characterization of the genome of B. rapa and provide the basis for detailed analysis through whole-genome sequencing. 相似文献

Production of high-content inulo-oligosaccharides from inulin by a purified endoinulinase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Inulo-oligosaccharides were produced from inulin with high yield by using a purified endoinulinase from a commercial inulinase preparation. The maximum yield of oligosaccharide achieved was around 96% irrespective of substrate concentrations ranged from 50 to 150 g inulin/l. A wide range of degradation products from inulin, varying in their DP (degree of polymerization) 2 to 6, were obtained where the major oligosaccharides were DP3 and 4. The reaction pH gave rise to a significant difference in yield and sugar composition of inulo-oligosaccharides. 相似文献

Vascular dementia (VaD) is characterized by a time-dependent memory deficit and essentially combined with evidence of neuroinflammation. Thus, polyphenol-rich natural plants, which possess anti-inflammatory properties, have received much scientific attention. This study investigated whether Perilla frutescens leaf extract (PFL) exerts therapeutic efficacy against VaD. Sprague Dawley rats were divided into five groups: SO, sham-operated and vehicle treatment; OP, operated and vehicle treatment; PFL-L, operated and low-dose (30 mg/kg) PFL treatment; PFL-M, operated and medium-dose (60 mg/kg) PFL treatment; and PFL-H, operated and high-dose (90 mg/kg) PFL treatment. Two-vessel occlusion and hypovolemia (2VO/H) were employed as a surgical model of VaD, and PFL was given orally perioperatively for 23 days. The rats underwent the Y-maze, Barnes maze, and passive avoidance tests and their brains were subjected to histologic studies. The OP group showed VaD-associated memory deficits, hippocampal neuronal death, and microglial activation; however, the PFL-treated groups showed significant attenuations in all of the above parameters. Using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated BV-2 cells, a murine microglial cell line, we measured PFL-mediated changes on the production of nitric oxide (NO), TNF-α, and IL-6, and the activities of their upstream MAP kinases (MAPKs)/NFκB/inducible NO synthase (iNOS). The LPS-induced upregulations of NO, TNF-α, and IL-6 production and MAPKs/NFκB/iNOS activities were globally and significantly reversed by 12-h pretreatment of PFL. This suggests that PFL can counteract VaD-associated structural and functional deterioration through the attenuation of neuroinflammation. 相似文献

Elevated phospholipase D (PLD) expression prevents cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. However, the roles of PLD isoforms in cell proliferation and apoptosis are incompletely understood. Here, we investigated the physiological significance of the interaction between PLD2 and protein kinase CKII (CKII) in HCT116 human colorectal carcinoma cells. PLD2 interacted with the CKIIβ subunit in HCT116 cells. The C-terminal domain (residues 578-933) of PLD2 and the N-terminal domain of CKIIβ were necessary for interaction between the two proteins. PLD2 relocalized CKIIβ to the plasma membrane area. Overexpression of PLD2 reduced CKIIβ protein level, whereas knockdown of PLD2 led to an increase in CKIIβ expression. PLD2-induced CKIIβ reduction was mediated by ubiquitin-dependent degradation. The C-terminal domain of PLD2 was sufficient for CKIIβ degradation as the catalytic activity of PLD2 was not required. Taken together, the results indicate that the C-terminal domain of PLD2 can regulate CKII by accelerating CKIIβ degradation in HCT116 cells. 相似文献

Stiff left atrial (LA) syndrome was initially reported in post-cardiac surgery patients and known to be associated with low LA compliance. We investigated the physiological and clinical implications of LA compliance by estimating LA pulse pressure (LApp) among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and structurally and functionally normal heart. Among 1038 consecutive patients with LA pressure measurements before AF ablation, we included 334 patients with structurally and functionally normal heart (81.7% male, 54.1±10.6 years, 77.0% paroxysmal AF) after excluding those with hypertension, diabetes, and previous ablation or cardiac surgery. We measured LApp (peak-nadir LA pressure) at the beginning of the ablation procedure and compared the values with clinical parameters and the AF recurrence rate.AF patients with normal heart were younger and more frequently male and had paroxysmal AF, a lower body mass index, and a lower LApp compared to others (all p<0.05).Based on the median value, the low LA compliance group (LApp≥13mmHg) had a smaller LA volume index and lower LA voltage (all p<0.05) compared to the high LA compliance group. During a mean follow-up of 16.7±11.8 months, low LA compliance was independently associated with two fold-higher risk of clinical AF recurrence (HR:2.202; 95%CI:1.077–4.503; p = 0.031).Low LA compliance, as determined by an elevated LApp, was associated with a smaller LA volume index and lower LA voltage and independently associated with higher clinical recurrence after catheter ablation in AF patients with structurally and functionally normal heart. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases (PI3Ks) play pivotal roles in meiotic progression of oocytes from metaphase I to metaphase II stage. Using a Class III-specific inhibitor of PI3K, 3-methyladenine (3MA), this study shows that Class III PI3K may be essential for meiotic progression of porcine oocytes beyond germinal vesicle (GV) stage. Treatment of immature porcine oocytes with 3MA for 22-42 h arrested them at the GV stage, irrespective of the presence or absence of cumulus cells. Furthermore, a significantly high proportion (60.9 ± 13.8%) of 3MA-treated oocytes acquired a nucleolus completely surrounded by a rim of highly condensed chromatin (GV-II stage). The GV-arresting effect of 3MA was, however, completely reversible upon their further culture in the absence of 3MA for 22 h. When cumulus-oophorus-complexes (COCs), arrested at the GV stage for 22 h by 3MA, were further cultured for 22 h in the absence of 3MA, 96.1 ± 1.5% of oocytes reached the MII stage at 42 h of IVM and did not differ from non-treated control oocytes with respect to their ability to fertilize, cleave and form blastocyst (P > 0.05) upon in vitro fertilization (IVF) or parthenogenetic activation (PA). These data suggest that 3MA efficiently blocks and synchronizes the meiotic progression of porcine oocytes at the GV stage without affecting their ooplasmic maturation in terms of post-fertilization/activation in vitro embryonic development. Our data also provide indirect evidence for the likely participation of Class III PI3K in meiotic maturation of porcine oocyte beyond the GV stage. 相似文献
