海藻糖合成酶活性受固定化处理过程影响的研究*

在麦芽糖苷基海藻糖合成酶(MTSase)和麦芽糖苷基海藻糖水解酶(MTHase)双酶的作用下,淀粉可转化为海藻糖,但是其转化率较低。中采用多种固定化载体进行酶固定化研究,发现通过经戊二醛与壳聚糖交联后的载体与酶液作用,可吸附与海藻糖合成无关的杂酶和杂质,从而提高海藻糖合成酶的活性。通过比较固定化过程中与反应条件中多个因素的影响,得到了如下最佳作用条件：将酶液与经3％戊二醛交联18h后的滤纸作用18h,再与10％的淀粉溶液反应9h,与未经固定化作用比较,海藻糖的产率提高10倍,达到27．22g／L转化率从5．33％提升到54．43％。

非晶状体βγ-晶状体蛋白的研究进展

βγ-晶状体蛋白是主要分布于脊椎动物眼睛晶状体内的水溶性结构蛋白。非晶状体βγ-晶状体蛋白从微生物到高等哺乳动物都有过报道。微生物中发现的非晶状体βγ-晶状体蛋白主要作为环境胁迫应急蛋白,在恶劣环境中发挥对细菌的自我保护作用,如ProteinS。在哺乳动物中,非晶状体βγ-晶状体蛋白被推测能够参与胚胎的皮肤发育与分化调节,具有肿瘤抑制等重要的生理功能,如黑色素瘤缺失蛋白。但是,对于它们的生化特性、生理功能和作用机制知之甚少。本文从蛋白结构、基因起源和生物学功能等方面简要介绍目前非晶状体βγ-晶状体蛋白的相关研究进展。     

白鱀豚(齿鲸亚目、白鱀豚科)的肌学研究——Ⅱ.咀嚼肌、舌肌和舌骨肌、喉肌和咽肌

前已报道白鱀豚(Lipotes vexillifer)的皮肤肌、肩和鳍肢肌肉、胸壁肌肉、腹壁肌肉,颈、背和尾部肌肉(周开亚等,1981)。本篇包括咀嚼肌、舌和舌骨部肌肉、喉部肌肉及鼻咽和咽部肌肉。 一、咀嚼肌(图1、2) 咬肌m.masseter很薄,起自颧突后部的腹缘,颧突下方颞肌的筋膜及颧弓的腹缘。纤维尾腹向,止于下颌骨后部下半的外侧。后端有少量纤维绕过下颌骨腹缘,止于下颌内脂肪体,紧贴下颌骨的部分咬肌纤维已脂化形成下颌外脂肪体。咬肌仍有提起下颌的作用,但力量很弱。     

An Overview of Metal Pollution in the Western Harbour of Alexandria,Egypt

Limited data are available on the concentration of metals in sediments in the Western Harbour of Alexandria. The most comprehensive record is from a survey conducted more than a decade ago. Industrial and human activities in and around this area have increased dramatically in the last 20 years. The purpose of this study was to determine the concentrations of heavy metals in surfacial bottom sediments of the harbor, to assess their potential biological effects and to identify their possible sources. Sediment samples from 21 stations throughout the harbor were analyzed for grain size, total organic carbon content (TOC), and metals (Al, As, Ba, Be, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Se, Sn, V, and Zn) to assess the extent of contamination in the area. The results indicated that concentrations of metals in the sediments varied widely depending on the location. High levels of metals were observed in the Arsenal Basin and the outfall area of El Mahmoudiya Canal in the inner harbor. The concentrations of metals were found to be higher than those recorded in the previous study. However, with some exceptions, most of the changes in the metal concentrations could be accounted for by the variations in aluminum, which represents the variations in mineralogy and grain size, indicating that the majority of the metals were of “natural” origin. The present data were also compared with results from other areas.     

大鼠中脑腹侧被盖区在睡眠－觉醒调节中的作用

本实验在３１只清醒自由行动的雄性ＳＤ大鼠进行。结果如下：（１）双侧中脑腹侧被盖区（ＶＴＡ）微量注射３．３ｎｍｏｌ溴隐亭后第２—３ｈ觉醒时间显著增加（Ｐ＜０．０１）;６．６ｎｍｏｌ溴隐亭有类似效果;０．６６和１．３３ｎｍｏｌ溴隐亭无明显作用。（２）同样方法ＶＴＡ微量注射２ｎｍｏｌ和４ｎｍｏｌＳＣＨ２３３９０后第２—３ｈ觉醒时间明显减少（分别为Ｐ＜０．０１和Ｐ＜０．０５）,但注射３．４ｎｍｏｌ舒必利则无效。（３）红藻氨酸（０．３μｇ）双侧ＶＴＡ注后一周,大鼠白天觉醒减少,夜间无明显变化。以上结果表明溴隐亭微量注射到ＶＴＡ可能通过Ｄ１受体使多巴胺神经元活动增加而产生致觉醒作用;另外ＶＴＡ中ＤＡ神经元对于维持日间的觉醒可能有紧张性作用。     

Visualization of chromatin folding patterns in chicken erythrocytes by atomic force microscopy （AFM）

The organization of the higher order structure of chromatin in chicken erythrocytes has been examined with tapping-mode scanning force microscopy under conditions close to their native envirinment.Reproducible highresolution AFM images of chromatin compaction at several levels can be demonstrated.An extended beads-on-astring (width of - 15-20nm,height of - 2-3nm for each individual nucleosome) can be consistently observed.Furthermore,superbeade (width of - 40nm,height of - 7nm) are demonstrated.Visualization of the solenoid conformation at the level of 30nm chromatin fiber is attained either by using AFM or by using electron microscopy.In addition,tightly coiled chromatin fibers (- 50-60nm and - 90-110nm) can be revealed.Our data suggest that the chromatin in the interphase nucleus of chicken erythrocyte represents a high-order conformation and AFM provides useful high-resolution structural information concerning the folding pattern of interphase chromatin fibers.
