苯甲醛对果蝇视觉联想记忆的阻断

采用飞行模拟系统,以视觉模式为线索、热惩罚为负强化因子,对于在不同发育时期经受苯甲醛处理过的果蝇的视觉飞行定向条件化进行了检验。苯甲醛气味分别作用于果蝇幼虫和成虫阶段,将阻断果蝇成虫建立视觉联想记忆的能力;雌性果蝇在处女期对苯甲醛气味的接触,会阻断其子代建立视觉联想记忆,这种视觉联想记忆的能力可以通过对其子代连续３代的正常饲养而逐渐得到恢复。

本文研究了果蝇Ｄ．ｖｉｒｉｌｉｓ种群Ｄ．ｖｉｒｉｌｉｓ线粒体ＤＮＡ（ｍｉｔｏｃｈｏｎｄｒｉａｌＤＮＡ,ｍｔＤＮＡ）的多态性。用９种限制性内切酶ＸｂａⅠ,ＥｃｏＲⅠ,ＰｓｔⅠ,ＨｉｎｄⅢ,ＢｇｌⅡ,ＳａｃⅠ,ＳｃａⅠ,ＥｃｏＲＶ和ＰｕｖⅡ,对青岛、南京、上海、宁波与泉州５个Ｄ．ｖｉｒｉｌｉｓ群体的ｍｔＤＮＡ进行了限制性片段长度多态性（ｒｅｓｔｒｉｃｔｉｏｎｆｒａｇｍｅｎｔｓｌｅｎｇｔｈｐｏｌｙｍｏｒｐｈｉｓｍ,ＲＦＬＰ）的研究。在５群体中,发现５种不同的酶切图谱,它们彼此之间的遗传差异π为０．４６％－１．７６％,群体内遗传差异πｉｊ为０．００％－０．３３％,群体间的差异ｄｘｙ,为０．００％－０．８２％。分布于中国大陆的Ｄ．ｖｉｒｉｌｉｓ的群体间遗传差异在总遗传差异中所占比例γｓｔ值为２４．６２％。我们发现,Ｄ．ｖｉｒｉｌｉｓ的栖息环境对ｍｔＤＮＡ的遗传变异有十分明显的影响,而不同地理纬度的群体之间其遗传距离并无倾群（ｃｌｉｎｅ）表现。     

Kinetics and specificity of the renal Na+/myo-inositol cotransporter expressed in Xenopus Oocytes

The two-microelectrode voltage clamp technique was used to examine the kinetics and substrate specificity of the cloned renal Na⁺/myo-inositol cotransporter (SMIT) expressed in Xenopus oocytes. The steady-state myo-inositol-induced current was measured as a function of the applied membrane potential (V _m ), the external myo-inositol concentration and the external Na⁺ concentration, yielding the kinetic parameters: K _0.5 ^MI , K _0.5 ^Na , and the Hill coefficient n. At 100 mM NaCl, K _0.5 ^MI was about 50 m and was independent of V _m . At 0.5 mm myo-inositol, K _0.5 ^Na ranged from 76 mm at V _m =–50 mV to 40 mm at V _m =–150 mV. n was voltage independent with a value of 1.9±0.2, suggesting that two Na⁺ ions are transported per molecule of myo-inositol. Phlorizin was an inhibitor with a voltage-dependent apparent K _I of 64 m at V _m =–50 mV and 130 m at V _m = –150 mV. To examine sugar specificity, sugar-induced steady-state currents (at V _m =–150 mV) were recorded for a series of sugars, each at an external concentration of 50 mm. The substrate selectivity series was myo-inositol, scyllo-inositol > l-fucose > l-xylose > l-glucose, d-glucose, -methyl-d-glucopyranoside > d-galactose, d-fucose, 3-O-methyl-d-glucose, 2-deoxy-d-glucose > d-xylose. For comparison, oocytes were injected with cRNA for the rabbit intestinal Na⁺/glucose cotransporter (SGLT1) and sugar-induced steady-state currents (at V _m =–150 mV) were measured. For oocytes expressing SGLT1, the sugar selectivity was: d-glucose, -methyl-d-glucopyranoside, d-galactose, d-fucose, 3-O-methyl-d-glucose > d-xylose, l-xylose, 2-deoxy-d-glucose > myo-inositol, l-glucose, l-fucose. The ability of SMIT to transport glucose and SGLT1 to transport myo-inositol was independently confirmed by monitoring the Na⁺-dependent uptake of ³H-d-glucose and ³H-myo-inositol, respectively. In common with SGLT1, SMIT gave a relaxation current in the presence of 100 mm Na⁺ that was abolished by phlorizin (0.5 mm). This transient current decayed with a voltage-sensitive time constant between 10 and 14 msec. The presteady-state current is apparently due to the reorientation of the cotransporter protein in the membrane in response to a change in V _m . The kinetics of SMIT is accounted for by an ordered six-state nonrapid equilibrium model. Present address: W.M.

Hydrogen exchange: the modern legacy of Linderstrøm-Lang.

This discussion, prepared for the Protein Society's symposium honoring the 100th anniversary of Kaj Linderstrøm-Lang, shows how hydrogen exchange approaches initially conceived and implemented by Lang and his colleagues some 50 years ago are contributing to current progress in structural biology. Examples are chosen from the active protein folding field. Hydrogen exchange methods now make it possible to define the structure of protein folding intermediates in various contexts: as tenuous molten globule forms at equilibrium under destabilizing conditions, in kinetic intermediates that exist for less than one second, and as infinitesimally populated excited state forms under native conditions. More generally, similar methods now find broad application in studies of protein structure, energetics, and interactions. This article considers the rise of these capabilities from their inception at the Carlsberg Labs to their contemporary role as a significant tool of modern structural biology.

Using genomicin-situ hybridization (GISH) technique, 7 translocation-addition lines, 6 translocation and translocation-addition lines, 2 ditelosomic addition lines and 1 translocation line were identified fromTriticum aestivum L. -Psathyrostachys juncea (Fisch.) Nevski intergeneric hybrids, of which translocation-addition and translocation and translocation-addition lines were not found in other reports. No substitutions and disornic additions were detected in the, hybrids and breakages occurred in allP. juncea chromosomes studied. Results have shown that the improved GISH technique is a rapid and economical method for use in this field.     

广西九万山藓类植物区系分析及其对划分热带,亚热带分界线的意义

九万山位于广西北部的中央(25°10’～25°25’N,108°27’E),界于泛北极植物区和古热带植物区的交汇处。其主要植被为亚热带常绿阔叶林。最高海拔为1693m,最低处仅170m。经对1850号标本的鉴定,共计有藓类植物35科、101属和189种。本文分析了九万山的藓类植物区系成分,将其划分为 10种类型。其中东亚成分最为丰富(39.33％),热带、亚热带成分次之(38.20％),而温带成分居第三位(18.54％)。本文选择了九万山临近的五个地区加以比较。其中,金佛山与九万山藓类植物的属和种的相似性系数分别为60.68％和36.87％,神农架为57.29％和33.13％。尖峰岭为48.83％和22.29％,西双版纳为57.29％和29.63％。而我国东部的武夷山则为69.86％和39.57％,其相似性系数在相比较的五个山区中为最高。九万山区有4个特有属并明显受喜马拉雅的影响。特别值得注意的是,在九万山区藓类区系中约有7％的种类是典型的热带成分。根据定量和定性的分析,笔者认为九万山的藓类区系表现出由热带向亚热带过渡的特性,其分界线可能位于九万山的南侧。
