人体基因组随机单拷贝顺序的分离及其在染色体上的定位

本文从构建杂种细胞14-7-1的基因组文库出发,用种特异的探针分离出含有人体基因组顺序的重组子,并进一步分析了其中13个克隆,得到8个单拷贝顺序。通过与已建立的杂种细胞克隆分布板杂交以及染色体的原位杂交方法,将1个单拷贝顺序FD11-1定位在11p11-q11上。由于已经报道在11号染色体上具有3个连锁群,它们分别位于11p15、11p13和11q13上,因此,FD11-1有可能为11号染色体连锁基因图的建立提供1个有意义的座位。     

Lipid Composition in Scrapie-Infected Mouse Brain: Prion Infection Increases the Levels of Dolichyl Phosphate and Ubiquinone

Abstract: The neutral and phospholipid composition of mouse brain infected with scrapie prions was investigated. During the later stages of this disease, the level of dolichol decreased by 30% whereas the level of dolichyl phosphate increased by 30%. In terminally ill mice, there was also a 2.5-fold increase in both total ubiquinone and its reduced form. Furthermore, α-tocopherol was elevated at this stage by 50%. In contrast, no changes were observed in phospholipid amount, in phospholipid composition, and in phosphatidylethanolamine plasmalogen content during the entire disease process. The fatty acid and aldehyde composition of individual phospholipids remained unaltered as well. No modifications could be detected in cholesterol content. Thus, the majority of membrane lipids in scrapie-infected mouse brain are modified in neither quantity nor structure, but specific changes occur to a few polyisoprenoid lipids. This specificity indicates that, although prions accumulate in lysosomes, the infection process is not associated with a general membrane destruction caused by lysosomal enzyme leakage.     

PRIMARY STRUCTURE OF ALLATOSTATIN 4, A NEVROPEPTIDE INHIBITOR OF JUVENILE HORMONE SYNTHESIS

Abstract Isolation and identification of allatostatin 4 (AST 4) from crude brain extracts of female Diploptera punctata are described. Synthetic analogues of allatostatin 4 truncated from the N-terminal were evaluated to gain some knowledge of structure-activity correlation. AST 4 reversibly inhibits the biosynthesis of JH in vitro . AST 4 has the following sequence: Asp-Arg-Leu-Tyr-Ser-Phe-Gly-Leu-NH₂. This neurohormone (AST 4) has no sequence similarity with any known neuropeptide from other organisms. Synthetic AST 4 as well as truncation fragments, including two with the five and six amino acids terminal residues deleted showed in vitro activity distinguishable from that of the native allatostatin.

中国典型草原放牧草场蝗虫为害损失及经济阈值的估算(英语)

传统上估算蝗虫在放牧草场为害损失的方法几乎都是用来测定对牧草秋季产量的影响,而实际上,在估算放牧草场蝗虫为害损失及经济阈值时,牧草的现存量而非秋季产量是更应考虑的因素.本文提出了一种适合测定蝗虫对牧草现存生物量影响的新方法,即野外挂笼饲养与蝗虫种群动态相结合的估算方法,并在此基础上组建了放牧草场蝗虫种群经济阈值模型;α_0 α_1M_1_α_2M_2_ α_3S_1 α_4S_2=C其中,M_1:狭翅雏蝗生物量;M_2:宽须蚁蝗生物量;S_1:狭翅雏蝗平均个体重量,S_2:宽须蚁蝗平均个体重量;α_0-α_4:常数.同时引入蝗虫种群数量和生物量两项参数来表达蝗虫种群的发生程度.     

一些因子对七星瓢虫咽侧体活性的影响(英文)

七星瓢虫(Coccmella septimpunctata)为了适应环境的变化,通过咽侧体产生保幼激素的活动调节其生殖作用。为了探索内外因素对咽侧体活动的影响,应用放射化学法及免疫电泳测定了食物、卵巢发育、脑神经肽、保幼激素类似物对卵黄发生期成虫保幼激素生物合成及血淋巴中卵黄原蛋白含量的影响。结果表明咽侧体活性受上述各种因子的影响。咽侧体活性与卵黄原蛋白含量及卵母细胞生长密切相关,说明有反馈作用。食物的质与量影响着咽侧体活性的变化。低剂量外源保幼激素类似物处理成虫则可促使咽侧体活性的变化。脑分泌的神经肽(allatotropin)可活化咽侧体。这些结果表明雌瓢虫保幼激素的生产主要是受起源于脑的促咽侧体信号的调节作用。

Transformation and pp60v-src autophosphorylation correlate with SHC-GRB2 complex formation in rat and chicken cells expressing host-range and kinase-active, transformation-defective alleles of v-src.

The biochemical properties of several pp60v-src substrates believed to participate in src-mediated transformation were examined in cells expressing a kinase-active, transformation-defective v-src allele (v-src-F172 delta/Y416F) and its parental allele, v-src-F172 delta, a host-range--dependent allele that transforms chicken cells to a fusiform morphology, but does not transform rat cells. Because pp60v-src-F172 delta is dependent on autophosphorylation for transforming ability, these alleles provide a unique opportunity to examine the role of pp60v-src autophosphorylation in regulating substrate interactions. Increased pp125FAK tyrosine phosphorylation and high levels of pp60v-src-associated phosphotidylinositol-3' kinase activity were detected specifically in chicken cells exhibiting round, refractile transformation but not in cells transformed to a fusiform morphology. Increased pp125FAK kinase activity, but not increased pp125FAK tyrosine-phosphorylation correlated with pp60v-src autophosphorylation and increased anchorage-independent growth. Thus, pp125FAK and PI3'K may participate in morphological transformation by v-src. Furthermore, association of phosphorylated SHC with the adapter GRB2 correlated with increased anchorage-independent growth (and autophosphorylation) in both rat and chicken cells independent of the morphological phenotype induced. Therefore, host-range dependence for transformation may be regulated through association of SHC with GRB2, thus implicating SHC as a crucial substrate for src-dependent transformation.
