丝孢酵母高甲硫氨酸突变株的选育及营养调控

以丝孢酵母(Trichosporon Behr)ST851为原始菌株,经紫外线诱变,在含乙硫氨酸的双层平板上筛选到多株抗乙硫氨酸突变株。其中ST851-10株抗乙硫氨酸浓度达到350μg/ml,其菌体蛋白质含量由40.5％提高到44.3％,菌体甲硫氨酸含量由20.45mg/g-DCW增加到29.32mg/g-DCW。在以苹果渣为碳源、尿素为氮源、硫酸镁作硫源的最适培养条件下,固态发酵24h后,蛋白质和甲硫氨酸含量较原始菌株分别提高了15.8％和44.9％。培养基中C/N值低有利于甲硫氨酸的合成,C/N值高则适合于菌体生长。在苹果渣固态发酵过程中,适当补加氮源既有利于菌体生长和甲硫氨酸的合成,又可起到调节培养基pH值的作用。     

太湖16000年来沉积环境的演变

通过对太湖钻孔岩芯岩性,结构,构造的剖析及粒度,磁化率的测试,发现冰后期东太湖形成于跑今６５００年前,在距今６５００－５８００年,为一水深约２－３ｍ的,经常受到流水作用影响的浅水湖泊,距今约５８００－５７００年,东太湖曾一度干枯或接近于干枯,距今５７００年以来湖泊变浅,平均水深只有１ｍ左右,由于湖泊变浅,湖底经常遭受波浪的扰动,形成波状层理或透镜状层理。西太湖局部洼地集水成湖的时间比东太湖早,并且

黑节草双受精过程及胚胎发育的研究

黑节草从传粉到受精约需１３０ｄ,精子在花粉管中形成,胚囊发育属蓼型胚囊,因反足细胞较早退化,故受精前胚囊多只由卵器和中央细胞组成。精卵核融合时,精核染色质进入卵核后凝集成颗粒状,并在原位与卵核的染色质融合,雌、雄性核仁一直维持至合子的第一次分裂期前。双受精作用正常,属于有丝分裂前配子融合类型,初生胚乳核发生２－３次分裂后逐渐退化消失,胚的发育局限于球形胚阶段。     

人粒细胞集落刺激因子（hG－CSF）cDNA3′－UTR对其表达的影响

利用人粒细胞集落刺激因子（ｈＧ－ＣＳＦ）ｃＤＮＡ３′端非翻译区（３′－ＵＴＲ）中存在的ＤｒａⅠ酶切位点,通过部分酶切与完全酶切,删除３′－ＵＴＲ不同长度,构建了四种ｈＧ－ＣＳＦｃＤＮＡ瞬时重组表达质粒。转染ＣＯＳ－７细胞后,生物活性测定结果提示,ｈＧ－ＣＳＦｃＤＮＡ３′－ＵＴＲ对其表达起负调控作用,其关键性序列位于紧接终止密码子ＴＧＡ下游的６５ｂｐ范围内,３′－ＵＴＲ对ｈＧ－ＣＳＦｃＤＮＡ表达的影响与转录水平的差别有一定关系。     

Missense mutations define a restricted segment in the C-terminal domain of phytochrome A critical to its regulatory activity.

The phytochrome family of photoreceptors has dual molecular functions: photosensory, involving light signal perception, and regulatory, involving signal transfer to downstream transduction components. To define residues necessary specifically for the regulatory activity of phytochrome A (phyA), we undertook a genetic screen to identify Arabidopsis mutants producing wild-type levels of biologically defective but photochemically active and dimeric phyA molecules. Of eight such mutants identified, six contain missense mutations (including three in the same residue, glycine 727) clustered within a restricted segment in the C-terminal domain of the polypeptide. Quantitative photobiological analysis revealed retention of varying degrees of partial activity among the different alleles--a result consistent with the extent of conservation at the position mutated. Together with additional data, these results indicate that the photoreceptor subdomain identified here is critical to the regulatory activity of both phyA and phyB.     

Effect of physostigmine on relative acetylcholine output induced by systemic treatment with scopolamine in in vivo microdialysis of rat frontal cortex

By means of an in vivo brain microdialysis, the effect of different concentrations of physostigmine on the acetylcholine level in the dialysate of rat frontal cortex was studied. Perfusion of the various degrees of physostigmine (eserine) concentration (10 nM−10 μM) into the cortex through the dialysis membrane increased the basal acetylcholine level in a dose-dependent manner. In the presence of 10 nM, 0.1 μM and 10 μM physostigmine in the perfusate, systemic treatment with scopolamine (0.5 mg/kg, i.p.) increased 200, 270 and 510%, respectively, the relative acetylcholine level in the dialysates in comparison with the corresponding basal levels, while in the absence of physostigmine the treatment increased it only 40%. From these results, it appears that perfusion of physostigmine at a variety of concentrations, changes not only the basal level of acetylcholine induced by the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase but also the relative acetylcholine output induced by systemic treatment with scopolamine.     

Sodium transport through the amiloride-sensitive Na-Mg pathway of hamster red cells

Previous work showed that in hamster red cells the amiloride-sensitive (AS) Na⁺ influx of 0.8 mmol/liter cells/hr is not mediated by Na-H exchange as in other red cells, but depends upon intracellular Mg²⁺ and can be increased by 40-fold by loading cells with Mg²⁺ to 10 mm. The purpose of this study was to verify the connection of AS Na⁺ influx with Na-dependent, amiloride-sensitive Mg²⁺ efflux and to utilize AS Na⁺ influx to explore that pathway.Determination of unidirectional influx of Na⁺ and net loss of Mg²⁺ in parallel sets of cells showed that activation by extracellular [Na⁺] follows a simple Michaelis-Menten relationship for both processes with a K _m of 105–107 mm and that activation of both processes is sigmoidally dependent upon cytoplasmic [Mg²⁺] with a [Mg²⁺]_0.5 of 2.1–2.3 mm and a Hill coefficient of 1.8. Comparison of V_max for both sets of experiments indicated a stoichiometry of 2 Na: l Mg. Amiloride inhibits Na⁺ influx and Mg²⁺ extrusion in parallel (K _i = 0.3 mm). Like Mg²⁺ extrusion, amiloride-sensitive Na⁺ influx shows an absolute requirement for cytoplasmic ATP and is increased by cell swelling. Hence, amiloride-sensitive Na⁺ influx in hamster red cells appears to be through the Na-Mg exchange pathway.There was no amiloride-sensitive Na⁺ efflux in hamster red cells loaded with Na⁺ and incubated with high [Mg²⁺] in the medium with or without external Na⁺, nor with ATP depletion. Hence, this is not a simple Na-Mg exchange carrier.
