Background
The sexually transmitted disease, gonorrhea, is a serious health problem in developed as well as in developing countries, for which treatment continues to be a challenge. The recent completion of the genome sequence of the causative agent, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, opens up an entirely new set of approaches for studying this organism and the diseases it causes. Here, we describe the initial phases of the construction of an expression-capable clone set representing the protein-coding ORFs of the gonococcal genome using a recombination-based cloning system.Results
The clone set thus far includes 1672 of the 2250 predicted ORFs of the N. gonorrhoeae genome, of which 1393 (83%) are sequence-validated. Included in this set are 48 of the 61 ORFs of the gonococcal genetic island of strain MS11, not present in the sequenced genome of strain FA1090. L-arabinose-inducible glutathione-S-transferase (GST)-fusions were constructed from random clones and each was shown to express a fusion protein of the predicted size following induction, demonstrating the use of the recombination cloning system. PCR amplicons of each ORF used in the cloning reactions were spotted onto glass slides to produce DNA microarrays representing 2035 genes of the gonococcal genome. Pilot experiments indicate that these arrays are suitable for the analysis of global gene expression in gonococci.Conclusion
This archived set of Gateway® entry clones will facilitate high-throughput genomic and proteomic studies of gonococcal genes using a variety of expression and analysis systems. In addition, the DNA arrays produced will allow us to generate gene expression profiles of gonococci grown in a wide variety of conditions. Together, the resources produced in this work will facilitate experiments to dissect the molecular mechanisms of gonococcal pathogenesis on a global scale, and ultimately lead to the determination of the functions of unknown genes in the genome. 相似文献13.
A mutation in aspergillus nidulans that blocks the transition from interphase to prophase 总被引:8,自引:3,他引:8 下载免费PDF全文
In order to develop a method for obtaining mitotic synchrony in aspergillus nidulans, we have characterized previously isolated heat-sensitive nim mutations that block the nuclear division cycle in interphase at restrictive temperature. After 3.5 h at restrictive temperature the mitotic index of a strain carrying one of these mutations, nimA5, was 0, but when this strain was subsequently shifted from restrictive to permissive temperature the mitotic index increased rapidly, reaching a maximum of 78 percent after 7.5 min. When this strain was examined electron-microscopically, mitotic spindles were absent at restrictive temperature. From these data we conclude that at restrictive temperature nimA5 blocks the nuclear division cycle at a point immediately preceding the initiation of chromosomal condensation and mitotic microtubule assembly, and upon shifting to permissive control over the initiation of microtubule assembly and chromosomal condensation in vivo through a simple temperature shift and, consequently, nimA5 should be a powerful tool for studying these processes. Electron-microscopic examination of spindles of material synchronized in this manner reveals that spindle formation, although very rapid, is gradual in the sense that spindle microtubule numbers increase as spindle formation proceeds. 相似文献

Some virus and virus-like diseases of tobacco,tomato, papaya,and rubber tree in vietnam and cambodia
In Vietnam a green strain of tobacco mosaic virus was isolated having TIP 89°C (10 min) and causing systemic necrosis in tobacoo ‘Xanthi-nc’ and sometimes also inDatura stramonium. In symptomless tomato plants an elongated virus belonging apparently to the Carlavirus group (NL 630 nm) was found. In papaya trees showing severe symptoms of mosaic and/or ringspot elongated virus particles (NL 730 nm) were observed; this virus being apparently a member of the Potyvirus group, resembled as far as its symptoms in papaya are concerned, the papaya ringspot or the distortion ringspot. In Cambodia some young rubber trees showed malformed leaves (esp. edges and veins) with yellow discolorations along the veins. Such leaves contained elongated virus-like particles (rigid or slightly flexible) of various length (60 to 880 nm), so that their normal length (NL) could not be established precisely. Particles 120 to 150 nm long occurred very frequently. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of self management of asthma with traditional treatment. DESIGN: 12 month prospective randomised trial. SETTING: Outpatient clinics in Finland. SUBJECTS: 115 patients with mild to moderately severe asthma. INTERVENTIONS: Patient education and adjustment of anti-inflammatory therapy guided by peak flow measurements. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Unscheduled admissions to hospital and outpatient visits, days off work, courses of antibiotics and prednisolone, lung function, and quality of life. RESULTS: The mean number of unscheduled visits to ambulatory care facilities (0.5 v 1.0), days off work (2.8 v 4.8), and courses of antibiotics (0.4 v 0.9) and prednisolone (0.4 v 1.0) per patient were lower and the quality of life score (16.6 v 8.4 at 12 months) higher in the self management group than in the traditionally treated group. In both groups admissions for asthma were rare. CONCLUSIONS: Self management reduces incidents caused by asthma and improves quality of life. 相似文献

Peripheral alpha1,3-fucosylation of glycans occurs by the action of either
one of five different alpha1,3-fucosyltransferases (Fuc-Ts) cloned to date.
Fuc-TVI is one of the alpha1,3-fucosyltransferases which is capable to
synthesize selectin ligands. The major alpha1, 3- fucosyltransferase
activity in human plasma is encoded by the gene for fucosyltransferase VI,
which presumably originates from liver cells. While the sequence,
chromosomal localization, and kinetic properties of Fuc-TVI are known,
immunocytochemical localization and trafficking studies have been
impossible because of the lack of specific antibodies. Here we report on
the development and characterization of a peptide-specific polyclonal
antiserum monospecific to Fuc-TVI and an antiserum to purified soluble
recombinant Fuc-TVI crossreactive with Fuc-TIII and Fuc-TV. Both antisera
were applied for immunodetection in stably transfected CHO cells expressing
the full-length form of this enzyme (CHO clone 61/11). Fuc-TVI was found to
be a resident protein of the Golgi apparatus. In addition, more than 30% of
cell-associated and released enzyme activity was found in the medium.
Maturation and release of Fuc-TVI was analyzed in metabolically labeled CHO
61/11 cells followed by immunoprecipitation. Fuc-TVI occurred in two forms
of 47 kDa and 43 kDa bands, while the secreted form was detected as a 43
kDa. These two different intracellular forms arose by posttranslational
modification, as shown by pulse-chase experiments. Fuc-TVI was released to
the supernatant by proteolytic cleavage as a partially endo-H resistant
glycoform.

Abstract: Intensive sampling of the Luolou (northwestern Guangxi) and the Daye (southern Guizhou) Formations in South China leads to the recognition of a regional Griesbachian and Dienerian ammonoid succession for this key palaeobiogeographical area. The new biostratigraphical sequence comprises the upper Griesbachian ‘Ophiceras beds’ and the lower Dienerian ‘Proptychites candidus beds’, which are separated from the uppermost Dienerian ‘Clypites beds’ by an unfossiliferous interval. These faunas contain some taxa with wide geographic distribution (e.g. Ambites, Pleurambites, Pleurogyronites, Proptychites candidus), thus facilitating correlation with faunal successions from other regions (i.e. British Columbia, Canadian Arctic, Himalayas and South Primorye). Two new genera (Jieshaniceras and Shangganites) and three new species (Anotoceras subtabulatus, Pleurambites radiatus and Shangganites shangganense) are described. 相似文献
