中国鲎凝集素的分离纯化及性质研究

 经N-乙酰氨基葡萄糖交联琼脂糖亲和层析及以交联琼脂糖介质的高效液相分子筛层析,从中国鲎细胞溶解物中分离纯化了一种凝集素,其活性比原料鲎试剂提高128倍。鲎凝集素SDS电泳时表现出分子量为69000,和72000的二个亚基。N-乙酰氨基葡萄糖、D-半乳糖,D-甘露糖及岩藻糖等对鲎凝集素凝集鸡红细胞的活性有显著抑制作用,加热60℃,10分钟可使凝集素活性基本丧失。CaCl_2为凝集素活性所必需。鲎凝集素与肺炎球菌C多糖有沉淀反应。     

不同底物与固氮酶及其钼铁蛋白相互作用的荧光光谱分析

 本文研究了不同底物(N_2,H_2,N_2O,NaN_3,C_2H_2)对棕色固氮菌固氮酶及其钼铁蛋白荧光光谱的影响。结果表明,上述底物均能络合在钼铁蛋白及固氮酶上,但络合程度不同,从而为固氮酶系统有多个不同的底物络合中心,底物络合中心在钼铁蛋白分子上,铁蛋白对钼铁蛋白有变构作用,提供了光谱学证据。     

温州蜜柑果实发育过程中矿质营养元素含量的动态变化

本文分析了温州蜜柑丰产园不同发育阶段的果实氮、磷、钾、钙、镁、铁、锰、锌、铜、硼的含量。矿质元素在果实中的动态变化规律与叶片中的变化规律显然不同。一是含量比叶片低;二是浓度的最高峰期出现比叶片早。果实发育前中期元素含量变化较复杂,9月以后趋向稳定。对可否以9月至10月上旬作为采果样时期以进行营养诊断作了讨论。     

PVA和PEG(6000)预处理对大豆胚轴生长、蛋白质合成和ATP含量的影响

在低温吸胀阶段,经PVA(聚乙烯醇)和PEG(聚乙二醇6000)预处理的大豆胚轴蛋白质合成和ATP含量均比对照高。在萌发阶段,胚轴生长增快,蛋白质合成明显加快,ATP迅速被消耗,而对照胚轴则相反。试验结果表明,预处理大豆种子萌发和生长与其蛋白质合成、ATP水平和消耗能力有密切关系。     

Nonserine esterases from rat liver cytosol

An effort to identify the major general esterases of rat liver cytosol that are insensitive to the serine esterase inhibitor paraoxon (diethyl 4-nitrophenyl phosphate) has led to the isolation of a dozen enzymes. Four of these are electrophoretically homogeneous. Although purified on the basis of their hydrolytic activity toward 4-nitrophenyl acetate, each of the enzymes has a very broad and overlapping substrate specificity for aromatic esters. Thiol esters serve as substrates but, within the limits of the methods used, amides are not hydrolyzed.     

On the mechanism of activation of protein kinase FA (an activating factor of ATP·Mg-dependent protein phosphatase) in brain myelin

Protein kinase F_A (an activating factor of ATP·Mg-dependent protein phosphatase) has been characterized to exist in two forms in the purified brain myelin. One form of kinase F_A is spontaneously active and trypsin-labile, whereas the other form of kinase F_A is inactive and trypsin-resistant, suggesting a different membrane topography with active F_A exposed on the outer face of the myelin membrane and inactivu F_Q buried within the myelin membrane. When myelin was solubilized in 1% Triton X-100, all kinase F_A became active and trypsin-labile. Phospholipid reconstitution studies further indicated that when kinase F_A was reconstituted in acidic phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylserine, the enzyme activity was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that kinase F_A interacts with acidic phospholipids which inhibit its activity. Furthermore, when myelin was incubated with exogenous phospholipase C, the inactive/trypsin-resistant F_A could be converted to the active/trypsin-labile F_A in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Taken together, it is concluded that membrane phospholipids play an important role in modulating the activity of kinase F_A in the brain myelin. It is suggested that phospholipase C may mediate the activation-sequestration of inactive/trypsin-resistant kinase F_A in the brain myelin through the phospholipase C-katalyzed degradation of acidic membrane phospholipids. The activation-sequestration of protein Kinase F_A may represent one mode of control modulating the activity of kinase F_A in the central nervous system myelin.     

一组新的核仁组织者区结合蛋白

本文报道了一组新的核仁组织者区蛋白(ANOP)。这些蛋白由三种多肽组成,分子量分别为65,76和78KD。它们集中分布在核纤丝中心周围的高密度纤维组分中。研究表明ANOP广泛地分布于各种脊椎动物细胞中,有较强的抗原保守性。但在两栖类的红细胞和原肠期以前的早期胚胎细胞中则缺乏此种抗原。而在原肠形成过程中,ANOP开始出现并逐渐增加,表明ANOP可能与rRNA基因的活性有关。     

Role of viral antigens in destructive cellular immune responses to adenovirus vector-transduced cells in mouse lungs.

Adenoviruses missing E1 have been used as gene delivery vectors to the lungs for the treatment of cystic fibrosis. Transient expression of the recombinant gene and the development of inflammation have been two major limitations to the application of first-generation recombinant adenoviruses for gene therapy. Studies with mouse models of liver- and lung-directed gene therapy suggested that CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are effectors that contribute to extinction of transgene expression. The precise antigens responsible for activation of CTLs have not been identified. In this study, we examine the relative contributions of viral proteins versus the transgene product to the activation of CTLs which eliminate transgene-containing cells in mouse lungs. Instillation of a lacZ-expressing virus into the lungs of C57BL/6 mice elicited CTL responses to both viral proteins and the transgene product, beta-galactosidase, which collectively contribute to loss of trans-gene expression in mouse airways. Similar results were obtained in two experimental models in which the animals should be tolerant to the transgene, i.e., lacZ virus delivered to an animal transgenic for lacZ and a virus expressing the liver-specific enzyme ornithine transcarbamylase administered to the lungs of various strains of immune-competent mice. These data confirm the hypothesis that CTLs specific for viral antigens contribute to the problem of transgene instability in mouse lungs and indicate that CTLs specific for transgene product alone cannot account for the observed problem.
