Purified chloroplast tRNAs were isolated fromPisum sativum leaves and radioactively labeled at their 3′ end using tRNA nucleotidyl transferase and α32P-labeled CTP. Pea ctDNA was fragmented using a number of restriction endonucleases and hybridized with thein vitro labeled chloroplast tRNAs by DNA transfer method. Genes for tRNAs have been found to be dispersed throughout the chloroplast
genome. A closer analysis of the several hybrid regions using recombinant DNA plasmids have shown that tRNA genes are localized
in the chloroplast genome in both single and multiple arrangements. Two dimensional gel electrophoresis of total ct tRNA have
identified 36 spots. All of them have been found to hybridize withPisum sativum ctDNA. Using recombinant clones, 30 of the tRNA spots have been mapped inPisum sativum ctDNA. 相似文献

Background
In recent years, several new hypotheses on phylogenetic relations among arthropods have been proposed on the basis of DNA sequences. One of the challenged hypotheses is the monophyly of hexapods. This discussion originated from analyses based on mitochondrial DNA datasets that, due to an unusual positioning of Collembola, suggested that the hexapod body plan evolved at least twice. Here, we re-evaluate the position of Collembola using ribosomal protein gene sequences. 相似文献33.

The synthesis and optimization of a cyclopentane-based hNK1 antagonist scaffold 3, having four chiral centers, will be discussed in the context of its enhanced water solubility properties relative to the marketed anti-emetic hNK1 antagonist EMEND (Aprepitant). Sub-nanomolar hNK1 binding was achieved and oral activity comparable to Aprepitant in two in vivo models will be described. 相似文献

Previously, we had disclosed a novel class of hNK1 antagonists based on the 5,5-fused pyrrolidine core. These compounds displayed subnanomolar hNK1 affinity along with good efficacy in a gerbil foot-tapping (GFT) model, but unfortunately they had low to moderate functional antagonist (IP-1) activity. To elaborate on the SAR of this class of hNK1 compounds and to improve functional activity, we have designed and synthesized a new class of hNK1 antagonist with a third fused ring. Compared to the 5,5-fused pyrrolidine class, these 5,5,5-fused tricyclic hNK1 antagonists maintain subnanomolar hNK1 binding affinity with highly improved functional IP-1 activity (<10% SP remaining). A fused tricyclic methyl, hydroxyl geminally substituted pyrrolizinone (compound 20) had excellent functional IP (<2% SP remaining), hNK1 binding affinity, off-target selectivity, pharmacokinetic profile and in vivo activity. Complete inhibition of agonist activity was observed at both 0 and 24 h in the gerbil foot-tapping model with an ID50 of 0.02 mpk at both 0 and 24 h, respectively. 相似文献

Various hormonal and non-hormonal agents were tested for their ability to induce ornithine decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.17) in primary cultures of fetal rat liver cells that retain many of the differentiated functions of hepatocytes. The only agents to induce ornithine decarboxylase in this cell type were fetal calf serum, prostaglandin E1 and cyclic AMP derivatives. Also, the amino acid arginine would induce ornithine decarboxylase in this cell type following arginine starvation for 24 h. These observations are in contrast to the wide range of hormones, e.g. insulin, hydrocotisone, glucagon and growth hormone, that can induce ornithine decarboxylase in vivo in the adult rat liver but which are all without effect on fetal rat liver cells. 相似文献

The partial glycine agonist d-cycloserine may be of therapeutic use as a cognitive enhancer. We examined the ability of d-cycloserine (3-14 mg/kg i.m.) to reverse cognitive impairments induced by scopolamine (0.03 mg/kg) or PCP (0.25 mg/kg). There was no evidence for a dose-related improvement in visuospatial memory using retention intervals of 2,10 or 20 sec. A possible explanation for these findings is that central glycine function cannot be adequately increased using systemic administration of d-cycloserine in this dose range. 相似文献

Modulating monoamine activity as a therapeutic strategy continues to dominate antidepressant research, with a recent emphasis on agents with multiple targets, including combined serotonin/noradrenaline re-uptake inhibitors and numerous serotonin receptor ligands. An important new development has been the emergence of potential novel mechanisms of action, notably modulation of the activity of neuropeptides substance P and corticotrophin-releasing factor, and the intracellular messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate. Efforts in this area have recently been rewarded by the demonstration of antidepressant efficacy of the substance P receptor antagonist MK-0869. 相似文献

Autoaggression and stereotypies in individually housed cynomolgus monkeys were compared in a standard primate cage and an enriched playpen environment. Stereotypy and autoaggression were markedly reduced in the playpen, but reappeared on return to the home cage. Some of the various activities available in the playpen but not others engaged the animals' attention. 相似文献

Inhibition of spermidine and spermine synthesis leads to growth arrest of rat embryo fibroblasts in G1 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Following growth stimulation of rat embryo fibroblast (REF) cells previously arrested in G1 by serum deprivation, there occurs a large increase in the synthesis of the polyamines putrescine, spermidine and spermine. Methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) (MGBG), a potent inhibitor of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase can block the accumulation of both spermidine and spermine over a period of several days. Under such conditions REF cells treated with MGBG will approximately double in number and then become growth-arrested again predominantly in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. REF cells therefore appear to contain sufficient spermidine and spermine to progress through one cell cycle before the intracellular levels of these polyamines is reduced sufficiently to arrest growth in the absence of continued polyamine synthesis. Limitation of intracellular polyamine levels is therefore not the mechanism by which deprivation of serum growth factors arrests cell growth. While continued growth is nevertheless dependent on polyamine synthesis, this cell type is capable of limited proliferation in its absence. Addition of spermidine or spermine to MGBG-arrested REF cells results in a rapid resumption of proliferation demonstrating that either polyamine can fulfill the role played by these polyamines in the growth process. Low levels of spermidine and spermine therefore arrest this cell type at a resriction point in G1 at which it is decided whether the intracellular level of these polyamines is sufficiently high to enable a cell to enter into and complete a new cell cycle. This polyamine-sensitive restriction point is considered to be analogous to the restriction point(s) in G1 at which serum and nutrient limitation act. 相似文献
