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。

蛋白激酶C在血小板聚集中的作用

利用￣（３２）Ｐ－ＮａＨ２ＰＯ４标记猪血小板,以蛋白激酶Ｃ的４０ｋＤ底物为蛋白激活的标志．用血小板激动剂在聚集浓度范围内处理血小板,结果表明,除了不能使猪血小板聚集的肾上腺素外,凝血酶等激动剂都使血小板４０ｋＤ底物蛋白磷酸化明显增加,同时３８ｋＤ,２６ｋＤ蛋白质磷酸化也明显增加,且４０ｋＤ底物磷酸化与血小板聚集有平行增加关系．蛋白激酶Ｃ在血小板聚集中可能起着重要的调节作用。     

以融合蛋白形式在大肠杆菌中表达人MCP－1

将编码人单核细胞趋化蛋白－１（ＭＣＰ－１）的基因亚克隆到大肠杆菌表达载体ｐＥＸ３１Ａ中,在大肠杆菌中表达出ＭＳ２／ＭＣＰ－１融合蛋０白,该表达产物约占菌体总蛋白的１５％左右,Ｗｅｓｔｅｒｎｂｌｏｔ检测表明,表达产物可与ＭＣＰ－１抗体特异反应。采用琼脂糖平板法进行活性测定表明,表达产物具有明显的单核细胞趋化活性,说明Ｎ端融合一段细菌蛋白对ＭＣＰ－１有无趋化活性可能没有影响。     

Analysis of the replication region of a mycobacterial plasmid, pMSC262.

We determined the nucleotide sequence of a DNA fragment which contains the replication region of pMSC262, a Mycobacterium scrofulaceum plasmid used to construct the Mycobacterium-Escherichia coli shuttle vector. The complete sequence of the fragment contained 2,504 bp with an overall G+C content of 69.8%. By deletion analysis, we found that the minimum length required for plasmid replication in M. bovis BCG was about 1.6 kb. Within this region, several open reading frames (ORFs) and a putative replication origin (ori) were identified by computer analysis. One of the ORFs, ORF2, which encodes a putative 28.9-kDa basic protein with characteristics of DNA-binding proteins, appeared to be involved in replication of the plasmid in BCG. By separation of ORF2 and the putative ori region, it was revealed that the relative locations of ORF2 and the putative ori region are likely important for replication in BCG. No DNA or amino acid homologies were found between this replication region and that of pAL5000, another mycobacterial plasmid used for vector plasmid construction. In addition, we found that this replicon did not lead to replication in E. coli and was compatible in BCG with pAL5000-derived vector plasmid pYUB75 (R. G. Barletta, D. D. Kim, S. B. Snapper, B. R. Bloom, and W. R. Jacobs, J., J. Gen. Microbiol. 138:23-30, 1992).     

Monoclonal antibody specific for α2→8-linked oligo deaminated neuraminic acid (KDN) sequences in glycoproteins. Preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody and its application in immunohistochemistry

Two particular types of sialoglycoproteins have been detected in fish: polysialoglycoproteins containing 28-linked polysialic acid (8Neu5Gc2) _n present in unfertilized Salmonidae fish eggs, and glycoproteins bearing oligo/polymers of deaminated neuraminic acids (KDN) found in the vitelline envelope of the eggs and ovarian fluid. We report the preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody specifically recognizing oligo/polymers of KDN sequences in glycoproteins and its application in immunohistochemistry. Fusion of spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse immunized with a KDN-rich glycoprotein (KDN-gp) containing (8KDN2) _n 6(KDN23Gal13GlNAc13) GalNAc1 residues, with mouse myeloma cells yielded a hybrid cell line producing a monoclonal antibody that bound to KDN-gp, but not to KDN-gp depleted of KDN residues. The specificity of the monoclonal antibody, designated mAb.kdn8kdn, was determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using KDN-gp samples that varied in KDN content. These antigens were prepared by the selective removal of KDN residues from the native KDN-gp. The mAb.kdn8kdn reacted most strongly with the intact KDN-gp and less strongly with KDN-gp samples containing decreased numbers of KDN residues. The mAb.kdn8kdn was shown specifically to recognize the 28-linked oligo/polyKDN sequences, (8KDN2) _n , and to be able to distinguish specifically (8KDN2) _n chains from (8Neu5Ac2) _n and (8Neu5Gc2) _n chains. The antibody was used successfully for the immunohistochemical detection of reactive KDN epitopes in sections of paraffin embedded rat pancreas. Several controls verified the specificity of the immunohistochemical staining, thus providing the first demonstration of (8KDN2) _n sequences in a mammalian tissue. The mAb.kdn8kdn can now be used to search further for glycoconjugates containing (8KDN2) _n chains and will facilitate studies on their biosynthesis, intracellular localization and function.

A simple and efficient method for DNA extraction from grapevine cultivars andVitis species

A quick, simple, and reliable method for the extraction of DNA from grapevine species, hybrids, andAmpelopsis brevipedunculata (Vitaceae) has been developed. This method, based on that of Doyle and Doyle (1990), is a CTBA-based extraction procedure modified by the use of NaCl to remove polysaccharides and PVP to eliminate polyphenols during DNA purification. The method has also been used successfully for extraction of total DNA from other fruit species such as apple (Malus domestica), apricot (Prunus armeniaca), cherry (Prunus avium), peach (Prunus persica), plum (Prunus domestica), and raspberry (Rubus idaeus). DNA yield from this procedure is high (up to 1 mg/g of leaf tissue). DNA is completely digestible with restriction endonucleases and amplifiable in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), indicating freedom from common contaminating compounds.
