Mg~(2+)影响嵌有线粒体H~+-ATP酶脂酶体的表面电荷密度和流动性

<正> 我们实验室曾报道,用胆酸盐透析法将猪心线粒体H~+-ATP酶嵌入大豆磷脂脂质体形成脂酶体时,透析液中Mg~(2+)的存在会降低脂酶体的膜脂流动性,并明显提高重建H~+-ATP酶的活性以及对寡霉素或DCCD的敏感性,因而推论Mg~(2+)的作用很可能是通过改变膜脂的物理状态,形成了维持H~+-ATP酶较高活性的合适构象。但共确切的作用机制仍     

在我国患急性腹泻成人中发现一种新轮状病毒

从3例急性成人腹泻患者粪便中,经电镜观察,成人腹泻轮状病毒—酶联免疫吸附试验(ADRV-ELISA)、普通轮状病毒—酶联免疫吸附试验(Rota-ELISA),猪抗C型(组)轮状病毒和鸡抗D型(组)轮状病毒血清分别与本病毒的免疫电镜试验以及RNA电泳等实验结果,发现了一种新轮状病毒,该病毒的形态结构与普通轮状病毒(Rotavirus)、成人腹泻论状病毒(Adult Diarrhoea Rotavirus,简称ADRV)极为相似,但抗原性与普通轮状病毒(A组),成人腹泻轮状病毒(B组),C型轮状病毒(C组),D型轮状病毒(D组)显然无关。基因分析表明,该病毒基因组由11个双链RNA片段组成,但其RNA电泳图型具有独自的特点,与目前公认的A组、B组、C组、D组论状病毒韵RNA电泳图型均不同,免疫电镜证实,该病毒能被人恢复期血清所凝集,表明该病毒可能是腹泻病人的病因。     

甘肃裕固族体质特征初步研究

本文调查了甘肃省裕固族成年人409人(男210人,女199人)的体质特征。其中活体测量51项,活体观察8项。结果表明:裕固族既具有黄种人的特征,也有本民族的特点,例如头部较圆较高;面部较长偏狭;鼻子高;鼻梁直,属狭鼻型;身材普遍较高,体质较好。这些特征与华北地区的汉族和达斡尔族,羌族及锡伯族的特征比较接近,而与苗族、黎族较远。     

少年游泳运动员冬训期间HbA_2百分含量的规律性变化

 本研究用聚丙烯酰胺凝胶垂直板电泳,双波长扫描仪对少年游泳运动员的HbA_2百分含量进行测定。发现大运动量训练对HbA_2水平是有影响的。经六天训练(星期二、五为大运动量训练),星期日休息一天,次周的星期一晨HbA_2百分含量升高,星期二大运动量训练后的次日晨HbA_2百分含量显著下降。运动性贫血的运动员,其HbA_2百分含量一周中的变化趋势与正常运动员相似,但HbA_2百分含量比正常运动员高。     

Immunohistochemical localization of neuropeptide Y in the guinea pig medulla oblongata

Summary The immunohistochemical localization of neuropeptide Y (NPY) was correlated with those of dopamine--hydroxylase (DBH) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) by mapping serial 7 m paraffin sections at three levels of the guina pig lower brainstem: a) area postrema, b) dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus, and c) nucleus prepositus of the hypoglossal nerve. Based on differences in transmitter expression, three populations of NPY-immunoreactive (IR) neurons were distinguished: NPY-IR catecholaminergic cells (NPY/CA), NPY-IR VIP-ergic cells (NPY/VIP), and NPY-IR cells which were not reactive to either DBH or VIP. Within these populations, size differences among neurons in characteristic locations allowed differentiation among the following subpopulations: NPY/CA neurons in the lateral reticular nucleus — magnocellular part (mean neuronal size 538 m²) and parvocellular part (318 m²)-, in the vagus-solitarius complex (433 m²), and in the dorsal strip (348 m²); NPY/VIP neurons in the vagus-solitarius complex (368 m²) and in the nucleus ovalis (236 m²). Apart from scattered NPY-IR cell bodies in the regions listed above, NPY-IR cell bodies in the lateral portion of the nucleus solitarius and in the caudal part of the spinal nucleus of the trigeminal nerve did not exhibit IR to either DBH or VIP. NPY-IR neurons in the area postrema occurred too infrequently for co-localization studies. The differential distribution of heterogeneous NPY-IR cell subpopulations may reflect the involvement of NPY in a variety of neuronal functions.Supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, grant He 919/6-1     

Protein Components of Bacteriophages λ and λ Virulent

Parallel studies have been made of the protein coats of the temperate bacteriophage λ and of a deletion mutant, λ virulent. A new method for preparing ghosts of both phages by the action of Cu⁺⁺ is described. Protein ghosts of both phages can be dissolved in citrate at pH values below 3, more rapidly in the presence of 8 m urea. Both phages yielded three apparently identical protein components which can be separated by thin-layer gel filtration and thin-layer gel electrophoresis. The protein of molecular weight 47,000 ± 1,500 represents about 55% of the protein of the ghosts and is therefore likely to be the subunit of the head. The other proteins of molecular weight 30,000 ± 1,500 and 16,000 ± 1,500 represent approximately 25% and 20% of the protein, respectively. Amino acid analyses of the ghosts from the two phages have been carried out and show no significant differences. The buoyant density of phage λ virulent is 0.016 g/ml less than that of λ. Since no differences have been found in the protein components of the two phages, this indicates that the virulent mutant contains approximately 16% less deoxyribonucleic acid than the temperate phage.     

牛生长激素结构不均一性的研究

本文报导用常规方法分离纯化的牛生长激素,在还原性SDS-11％聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳中呈分子量很接近的两条主带(22KD,21.5KD)。用单克隆抗体和多克隆抗体亲和层析技术分析了不同分子量形式的牛生长激素的转化,结果表明:牛生长激素可能在pH5.5条件下转化为21.5KD分子,在pH8.3条件下则转化18KD分子。这几种形式的牛生长激素均保留与抗体的结合力,但亲和力不尽相同,如在亲和层析的洗脱性质上存在差异。已检验分离并部分纯化了18KD分子以备作进一步的研究。     

用试管-玻片培养技术研究铵对木麻黄根瘤形成的影响

用植物试管玻片培养技术研究NH_4~ 对细枝木麻黄及Frankia菌株Co01共生体系建立过程的影响。NH_4~ (100,150ppm(NH_4)_2SO_4)通过阻止菌株Cc01与其宿主细枝木麻黄根毛壁的亲和作用来影响结瘤。但NH_4~ 不能阻抑菌株Cc01中结瘤基因pel和cel的表达及纤维素酶和果胶酶活性,且菌丝一旦侵入宿主皮层细胞,并形成根瘤原基及前根瘤,则NH_4~ (250ppm(NH_4)_2SO_4)就不再阻止原基进一步发育为成熟的根瘤。但在这种情况下,NH_4~ 能抑制根瘤的固氮活性。
