葡萄胚珠,胚乳及胚的发育

本文研究了“早玫瑰”和“新玫瑰”葡萄胚珠、胚乳和胚的发育。结果表明:花后3天胚珠即开始迅速生长,其生长的最终大小依品种成熟期的不同而各异。胚乳游离核在花后33天成为细胞状态。受精后16—21天,合子才开始第一次分裂。当胚乳充满珠心组织时,胚开始迅速发育并一直持续到果实成熟.胚的发育与果实的发育无明显竞争关系。     

自病人气管灌洗物中分离出一株嗜肺性军团杆菌

本文报道了用自制的蓝藻军团杆菌选择性培养基从病人气管灌洗物中分离到一株嗜肺性军团杆菌(Legionella pneumophila)并与BCYE及硝酸铁琼脂平板等培养基作了比较,发现该菌在蓝藻军团杆菌选择性培养基上生长最好。生化、动物试验;细菌学、血清学的鉴定和诊断及临床治疗效果观察均与军团病杆菌(LDB)的鉴定标准相符合,证明经分离得的是一株嗜肺性军团杆菌血清6型菌株。     

A general method for highly selective cross-linking of unprotected polypeptides via pH-controlled modification of N-terminal alpha-amino groups

A method is described for the highly selective modification of the alpha-amino groups at the N-termini of unprotected peptides to form stable, modified peptide intermediates which can be covalently coupled to other molecules or to a solid support. Acylation with iodoacetic anhydride at pH 6.0 occurs with 90-98% selectivity for the alpha-amino group, depending on the N-terminal residue (as shown with a series of model hexapeptides containing a competing Lys residue). Although Cys residues must be protected (reversibly or irreversibly) before the anhydride reaction, there are no detectable side reactions of the alpha-amino moiety--of the reagent or of modified peptide--with the side chains of His, Met, or Lys. The reaction works well in denaturants, so that inhibitory effects of noncovalent structure can be minimized. In a second step the iodoacetyl-peptide can be reacted with a thiol group on a protein, on a solid chromatography matrix, on a spectroscopic probe, etc. This is illustrated by reaction of a series of N alpha-iodoacetyl-peptides with murine interferon-gamma, which contains a C-terminal Cys residue. Data are presented which suggest that this iodoacetic anhydride scheme is superior in selectivity for alpha-amino groups to conventional chemical approaches to cross-linking such as use of 2-iminothiolane or N-hydroxysuccinimide-activated carboxylic acid esters. The reaction is ideally suited for modifying peptide fragments, as pure species or as mixtures, derived from proteolytic or chemical fragmentation of proteins. Furthermore, polypeptides synthesized biosynthetically, for example via recombinant DNA techniques, can be cross-linked in this way.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Changes in lung mechanics and reactivity with age after viral bronchiolitis in beagle puppies

We measured changes with growth in lung function and airway reactivity after acute canine parainfluenza virus type 2 (CPI2, n = 5), canine adenovirus type 2 (CAV2, n = 7), and sequential CAV2-CPI2 (n = 6) infections or no infection (controls, n = 6) in beagle puppies (age approximately 79 days). In the CPI2 and CAV2 groups, a lower respiratory illness developed by day 3 postinfection with clinical recovery by day 14. In the CAV2-CPI2 group, puppies were inoculated initially with CAV2 and 12 days later with CPI2. In this group, illness persisted until day 14 after infection with CPI2. Lung resistance (RL), dynamic (Cdyn) and static (Cst) lung compliance, functional residual capacity (FRC), and responsiveness to aerosolized histamine were measured before infection and at periodic intervals until 239 +/- 43 days of age. Lung function data were analyzed using a longitudinal random effects model. In all groups, FRC, Cst, and Cdyn increased with age. In all infected groups, the regression slopes for Cdyn were steeper than in controls. RL decreased linearly with age without group slope differences. Histamine reactivity increased with age, but there were no differences in slope among groups. Lung pathological studies showed areas of obliterative bronchiolitis and chronic small airways inflammation particularly in the CAV2 and CAV2-CPI2 groups. Thus, viral bronchiolitis produces chronic small airways inflammation in beagle puppies and alters the changes in lung function occurring with growth. Histamine reactivity increases with age and is not modified by viral infection.     

几种昆虫生长调节剂对家白蚁的毒效试验

在室内条件下测定了卡死克、抑太保、灭幼豚3号、爱力螨克和扑虱灵五种昆虫生长调节剂对家白蚁的毒杀效果。初步筛选结果表明：卡死克、抑太保和爱力螨克对家白蚁的毒杀效果均较好,家白蚁对爱力螨克尤其敏感。2．30pm。yL爱力螨克、327．36pm0VL、卡死克和369．80V＊wL抑太保处理白蚁5～6天后,其死亡率可达100％。忌避性试验表明：卡死克、抑太保和爱力螨克对家白蚁均无明显的驱避作用。     

生物复苏——大绝灭后生物演化历史的第一幕

生命史是一部生物界短期,快速剧变与长期,慢速稳定相互交替的历史。大绝灭（即集群绝灭）事件反映了全球环境的大突变,点断了地质历史中的生命记录及其发展历程,预示着生物界的演化出现了最有意义的飞跃,近年来尝试研究大绝灭后全球生物界的残存－复苏及其基本型式,并探索复苏的控制因素,标志着地质科学中一个重心的转移（即从大绝灭转向其后的生物残存与复苏的研究）。生物复苏揭示了大绝灭后生物演化历史的第一幕,其研究的     

L-山梨糖提高木霉纤维素酶合成速率机制的研究

在0.5％葡萄糖-Mandels盐培养液中添加终浓度为0.5％的L-山梨糖,可使里斯木霉(Trichoderma reesei C 30)和拟康氏木霉(Trichoderma pseudokoningii S38)的内切和外切β-1,4葡聚糖酶合成速率在培养的2天内提高4倍。与此同时β-葡萄糖苷酶的合成没有明显变化。L-山梨糖能明显抑制菌丝生长,但对葡萄糖的吸收没有影响,对菌丝分泌纤维素酶的机制影响不大。其对酶合成的促进可能主要是通过降低了菌丝体的生长速率。
