Elevated esterase Estbeta1 was purified from larvae of newly isolated strains of the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus from Colombia (COL) and Trinidad (TRI) with resistance to organophosphate (OP) insecticides. Insecticide interactions were compared with those of elevated Estbeta1(2) from the OP-resistant Habana strain and the non-elevated Estbeta1(3) from the susceptible PelSS strain. On the basis of insecticide binding efficiency, all elevated Estbeta1 esterases were readily distinguishable. Differences between the EcoRI restriction fragment patterns of the amplified estbeta1 gene in COL and TRI strains compared with each other, and between amplified estbeta1(1), estbeta1(2) and the non-amplified estbeta1(3), suggest differences in their nucleotide sequence. Considering their variable insecticide binding efficiencies, these genetic differences would imply that, in contrast to estalpha2 and estbeta2, amplification of estbeta1 has occurred several times independently. Generally, the elevated Estbeta1s were more reactive with insecticides than the non-elevated Estbeta1(3). This supports the hypothesis that the elevated esterase-based mechanism confers resistance through amplification of alleles coding for esterases which have a greater specificity for the insecticides they sequester than the esterases coded by their non-amplified counterparts. 相似文献

Bacteriophages (phi) have been used to degrade polysaccharides into oligosaccharides containing one or more of their repeating units. The capsular polysaccharide from Klebsiella K44 contains an acetate group, and n.m.r. spectroscopy and chemical methods have been employed to prove its linkage to O-6 of the 4-linked glucose residue. Phage phi 44 was shown to be an alpha-glucosidase not influenced by the acetate moiety and thus able to depolymerize the polysaccharide into pentasaccharide repeating units, some of which contained acetate on O-6 of the reducing glucose residue. The two oligosaccharides were studied by 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy, and their spectra were compared with those of the native and the deacetylated polysaccharide. 13C-n.m.r. was a useful tool for locating the 6-linked acetate, the position of which was confirmed by the method of temporary protection using methyl vinyl ether. The importance of using bacteriophages to obtain oligosaccharides is highlighted by the better results obtained with the oligosaccharide in comparison to the polysaccharide, both in n.m.r. spectroscopy and the temporary protection method. 相似文献

Bacteriophage phi 26 was used to depolymerize the polysaccharide of Klebsiella K26, yielding three oligosaccharides. The major product was the heptasaccharide repeating unit, with one of the minor products being the fourteen-sugar oligosaccharide corresponding to two repeating units. The other minor product was unusual since it was a hexasaccharide devoid of the terminal, pyruvate-containing galactose unit present in the side chain of the normal repeating unit. Phage phi 26 was shown to act as a beta-galactosidase, and hence it may have the ability to remove the terminal beta-galactose residue in the side chain. 相似文献
