草鱼出血病病毒多肽的免疫原性

采用中和试验比较了草鱼出血病病毒ＧＣＨＶ８７３的１１个多肽的免疫原性,确定了主要中和抗原。纯化的单个病毒多肽免疫家兔获得抗血清,多太ＶＰ１、ＶＰ５、ＶＰ６和ＶＰ９的抗血清具有中和效价,而ＶＰ２、ＶＰ３、ＶＰ４、ＶＰ８、ＶＰ１０和ＶＰ１１则不能诱生中和抗体。其中ＶＰ５的抗血清中和效价最高,因此,ＶＰ６极可能是病毒多肽中的主要中和抗原。     

海岛棉愈伤组织诱导和分化研究

以海岛棉无菌苗的胚根、下胚轴和子叶作外植体,对这３种器官在离体培养中愈伤组织诱导、分化以及影响因素进行了研究。结果表明：下胚轴作外植体效果最好,愈伤组织生长块、质地好,有芽的分化,进而可再生出植株。胚根效果很差,愈伤组织产生很少而且很易褐化死亡。子叶效果不好,愈伤组织少、生长慢无分化。外源激素中２．４－Ｄ与ＫＴ配合使用效果好,愈伤组织可以分化。无菌苗生长状态及培养基中非激素成分对愈伤组织诱导和分化

精制白喉毒素加β—丙氨酸后脱毒效果观察

精制白喉毒素加０．０２Ｍβ—丙氨酸,再加甲醛溶液经适当的时间解毒,即可转化为完全类毒化且无毒性逆转的精制白喉类毒素。此精白类的脱毒试验、毒性逆转试验、安全试验及效力试验均符合《中国生物制品规程》要求。在脱毒过程中絮状单位的损失明显低于单纯甲醛脱毒者,纯度亦相应得到了提高。     

青霉素和NAA与6—BA配合在离体草莓器官建成中的作用

本实验研究了青霉素和ＮＡＡ与６－ＢＡ配合对离体草莓器官建成以及体内过氧化物同工酶的影响。结果表明：青霉素促进不定根的分化,但抑制不定根的伸长和不定芽的分化,并且不同程度地影响器官建成过程中过氧化和抽工酶的谱带和活性。青霉素与植物激素一样,参与了植物体内的生理代谢而引起植物器官建成。     

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。     

大鼠大脑皮层中钙调神经磷酸酶活力的时空变化

以ＰＮＰＰ为底物测定了超离心制备的大鼠出生后早期和成年大脑皮层亚细胞各组分中钙调神经磷酸酶的活力。实验结果表明：（ｌ）钙调神经磷酸酶活力广泛地存在于胞液和突触部分,并且各亚细胞组分有明显差异。成年大鼠大脑皮层中ＣａＮ活力相对最高水平是在突触体,突触质,胞液,重的和轻的突触膜部分。（２）大鼠大脑皮层突触体中ＣａＮ活力在出生后第２周和第３周出现高峰的平台期,这与突触发生的高峰期是一致的。在胞液和重的突触膜中ＣａＮ活力最高水平是在出生后的第７ｄ,而在突触质和轻的突触膜中是在第２０ｄ。总之,这些发现证实,在脑发育期间,ＣａＮ活力是依照区域和时间性控制的,提示ＣａＮ可能参与了突触功能作用。     

Epipolarization Microscopic Immunogold Assay: a Combination of Immunogold Silver Staining, Enzyme-Linked-Immunosorbent Assay and Epipolarization Microscopy

We describe a new immunoassay which combines an immunosorbent assay, Immunogold silver staining and epipolarization microscopy. Our new assay procedure features multiple samples on a single microscope slide, and high sensitivity of epipolarization microscope for detection of silver-enhanced colloidal gold as a final immunoassay product. We call the new immunoassay “on slide immunogold assay” (OSIGA). This new method uses biotinylated antibody and streptavidin-gold reaction with silver enhancement technique. With OSIGA it is possible to investigate 30 samples on a single microscopic slide. Our preliminary studies used 10-20 μ1 samples and detected nanogram quantities of a standardized protein solution. Unlike enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which has a limited time for reading the final color products, the OSIGA specimens can be dried or resin mounted for longer storage and future reference.     

Studies on homoveratric acid transformation by the ligninolytic fungus Pleurotus eryngii

Homoveratric acid (HVA) degradation was observed in cultures of Pleurotus eryngii lacking lignin peroxidase (LiP) activity. Extracellular enzymes seemed responsible for this transformation, and the lack of activity after ultrafiltration of the culture liquid suggests that the presence of some low-molecular-size compounds is required. This hypothesis is supported by rapid HVA transformation after addition of the synthetic laccase substrate 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) to the ultrafiltered liquid. HVA transformation by the extracellular enzymes from P. eryngii takes place via C-C breakdown and formation of veratryl alcohol, which is further transformed into veratraldehyde. The same major compounds were found during HVA transformation by LiP from Phanerochaete chrysosporium, but this reaction was not stimulated by ABTS. Although the involvement of other enzymes cannot be ruled out, purified laccase from Pleurotus eryngii caused the same HVA transformation pattern in presence of ABTS. Moreover, veratryl alcohol oxidation by P. eryngii laccase was demonstrated in the presence of ABTS. These results suggest that enzymatic systems lacking LiP could be responsible for natural degradation of lignin.     

Pollen-ovule ratio,pollen size,and breeding system in Astragalus (Fabaceae) subgenus Epiglottis: a pollen and seed allocation approach

The correlation between pollen/ovule (P/O) ratio and breeding system has generally been accounted for either on the basis that P/O reflects pollination efficiency, or in terms of the sex allocation theory. The following were assessed for taxa belonging to genus Astragalus subgenus Epiglottis: 1) Degree of correlation between P/O and the breeding system, measured by means of autofertility; 2) The absence or existence of correlation between P/O and pollen grain size; and 3) The ability of various theories to account for the results obtained. Results showed a minimal correlation between P/O and autofertility, and between P/O and pollen grain size in the taxa studied. Analysis of these results in terms of the sex allocation theory enabled this correlation to be explained as a function of the variation existing between taxa with respect to the resources invested in each pollen grain and in each ovule. The predictive capacity of this theory, which has moreover proven valuable in explaining the structural peculiarities of the androecium in these taxa, was also highlighted. The type of self-pollination applicable was also discussed, as was the phenotypic model of selection of self-fertilization considered most plausible for these taxa.
