酵母多肽对几种细胞DNA合成的影响

<正> 我们用国内的新鲜酵母为材料,从中分离纯化到一种多肽——酵母多肽,其分子量为14kD。在低血清培养体系中能促使人成纤维细胞(HFB)和人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVEC)的DNA合成。当培养液中酵母多肽的浓度为1μg/mL时能引起最大的刺激作用。但此多肽对胎牛心脏内皮细胞(FBHEC)的DNA合成则无作用。     

Mapping of ben genes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Abstract Four ben genes responsible for the conversion of benzoate to catechol in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO have been mapped to a 4.6 kb Kpn I fragment. ben -1 and ben -4 were known to be separate genes but now ben-1508 has been found to be different from ben-2 . The two genes were distinguished by Tn 5 mutagenesis of a cosmid clone and deletion mapping. It is likely that the four genes mapped ( ben-4, ben-2, ben-1508 and ben-1 ) correspond to the previously characterized benR (regulatory gene) and benABC (benzoate dioxygenase) respectively.     

生物淋洗修复钒污染土壤的性能与机理研究

【目的】土壤重金属污染问题日益受到关注,其中钒污染逐渐成为研究热点。淋洗是土壤修复的重要手段,但存在污染大、成本高的缺点。生物淋洗技术因其经济高效且环保的特点能够应用于土壤的修复,但其对钒污染土壤的修复,认识仍非常有限。【方法】本研究采用嗜酸性氧化亚铁硫杆菌对钒污染土壤进行了生物淋洗试验,通过影响因素试验探究了钒的最佳浸出条件,并应用扫描电子显微镜-能量色散X射线谱分析了钒在淋洗过程中的变化,最后对代谢产物进行了解析。【结果】微生物次生代谢产物能促进土壤中钒的溶出。氧化亚铁硫杆菌对土壤钒的浸出效率较高,生物淋洗20 d后土壤中钒的浸出率达到27.4%,进一步的影响因素试验表明,在固体浓度为3%、接种体积为10%、初始pH值为1.8、初始Fe²⁺的浓度为3.0 g/L的条件下,土壤中钒的浸出效果最佳。SEM-EDS分析证实生物淋洗后土壤中钒含量减少,其中以非残渣态形式存在的钒更容易被浸出。代谢组学分析显示氧化亚铁硫杆菌在浸出过程中产生了大量代谢产物来应对重金属胁迫。【结论】生物淋洗技术能够有效地实现土壤钒污染的修复,本研究为钒污染土壤提供了一种环境友好的修复方式。     

Temporal dynamics of soil bacterial network regulate soil resistomes

Soil bacteria are diverse and form complicated ecological networks through various microbial interactions, which play important roles in soil multi-functionality. However, the seasonal effects on the bacterial network, especially the relationship between bacterial network topological features and soil resistomes remains underexplored, which impedes our ability to unveil the mechanisms of the temporal-dynamics of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Here, a field investigation was conducted across four seasons at the watershed scale. We observed significant seasonal variation in bacterial networks, with lower complexity and stability in autumn, and a wider bacterial community niche in summer. Similar to bacterial communities, the co-occurrence networks among ARGs also shift with seasonal change, particularly with respect to the topological features of the node degree, which on average was higher in summer than in the other seasons. Furthermore, the nodes with higher betweenness, stress, degree, and closeness centrality in the bacterial network showed strong relationships with the 10 major classes of ARGs. These findings highlighted the changes in the topological properties of bacterial networks that could further alter antibiotic resistance in soil. Together, our results reveal the temporal dynamics of bacterial ecological networks at the watershed scale, and provide new insights into antibiotic resistance management under environmental changes.     

High-temperature stress in crops: male sterility,yield loss and potential remedy approaches

Global food security is one of the utmost essential challenges in the 21st century in providing enough food for the growing population while coping with the already stressed environment. High temperature (HT) is one of the main factors affecting plant growth, development and reproduction and causes male sterility in plants. In male reproductive tissues, metabolic changes induced by HT involve carbohydrates, lipids, hormones, epigenetics and reactive oxygen species, leading to male sterility and ultimately reducing yield. Understanding the mechanism and genes involved in these pathways during the HT stress response will provide a new path to improve crops by using molecular breeding and biotechnological approaches. Moreover, this review provides insight into male sterility and integrates this with suggested strategies to enhance crop tolerance under HT stress conditions at the reproductive stage.     

Eu3+-activated red phosphor Ca3YAl3B4O15 with low thermal quenching behaviour

This paper reports a sequence of a Ca₃YAl₃B₄O₁₅:xEu³⁺ red phosphor prepared using a high-temperature solid-state reaction. At the excitation of 396 nm, the samples emitted intense red emission centred at ~623 nm, which could be attributed to the ⁵D₀→⁷F₂ transition of the Eu³⁺ ion. The results showed that the optimum Eu³⁺ doping concentration of Ca₃YAl₃B₄O₁₅:Eu³⁺ phosphor was x = 80 mol%, and the concentration quenching mechanism of Ca₃YAl₃B₄O₁₅:Eu³⁺ red phosphor belonged to the exchange coupling between Eu³⁺ ions. The Commission Internationale de l'éclairage (CIE) coordinates and colour purity of Ca₃Y_0.2Al₃B₄O₁₅:0.8Eu³⁺ were calculated as (0.6375, 0.3476) and 95.5%, respectively. Moreover, the red emission of the obtained phosphor Ca₃YAl₃B₄O₁₅:0.8Eu³⁺ exhibited a low thermal quenching behaviour with an intensity retention rate of 92.85% at 150°C. The above results manifest that the Eu³⁺-activated Ca₃YAl₃B₄O₁₅ phosphor is predicted to be a promising red luminescent component for white light-emitting diodes.     

NO2胁迫下三角梅叶片形态解剖结构和最优光响应模型研究

植物的形态结构和光合作用能够反映植物对城市空气污染的响应特性。探究城市道路机动车尾气中的典型污染物NO₂气体,对植物叶片的生理光合响应特性。以二年生三角梅（Bougainvillea spectabilis）幼苗为对象,利用智能化人工熏气室模拟熏气（NO₂体积分数分别为0 μL/L （自然空气）、4 μL/L,8 μL/L,记作CK、T1、T2）,观察NO₂胁迫后三角梅的叶片形态、微观结构和光合特征。结果表明：（1）通过叶片形态观察发现,与CK相比,低浓度T1组叶片变化不明显,随着NO₂气体胁迫浓度的增加,高浓度T2组叶片逐渐出现失水、叶表面有明显的水渍状或烧灼状黄色斑点。（2）通过叶片微观结构解剖发现,高浓度NO₂胁迫后气孔皱缩程度增加,气孔开度减小;叶绿体结构变形,尤其是类囊体结构疏松,膨胀等变化。（3）叶片光合特性分析发现,T1和T2组的NO₂胁迫导致光饱和点（LSP）和最大净光合速率（P_nmax）下降、光补偿点（LCP）增加,表观量子效率（AQE）和暗呼吸速率（Rd）在4种光响应模型中变化规律存在一定的差异性。（4）4种光响应模型中,CK组决定系数（R²）越高,均方根误差（RMSE）越低,精度最高,尤以叶子飘等机理模型为最优,拟合效果最好,其次是直角双曲线模型。研究结果表明三角梅可通过自身的形态变化、调整光合特征参数,较好地适应不同浓度的NO₂,尤其是高浓度急性胁迫下,该研究结果有助于促进不同道路绿地三角梅的推广应用,对探究三角梅的景观效益和生态效益,揭示其对环境异质性的适应机制具有重要意义。

Metabolic engineering of Mannheimia succiniciproducens for malic acid production using dimethylsulfoxide as an electron acceptor

Microbial production of various TCA intermediates and related chemicals through the reductive TCA cycle has been of great interest. However, rumen bacteria that naturally possess strong reductive TCA cycle have been rarely studied to produce these chemicals, except for succinic acid, due to their dependence on fumarate reduction to transport electrons for ATP synthesis. In this study, malic acid (MA), a dicarboxylic acid of industrial importance, was selected as a target chemical for mass production using Mannheimia succiniciproducens, a rumen bacterium possessing a strong reductive branch of the TCA cycle. The metabolic pathway was reconstructed by eliminating fumarase to prevent MA conversion to fumarate. The respiration system of M. succiniciproducens was reconstructed by introducing the Actinobacillus succinogenes dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) reductase to improve cell growth using DMSO as an electron acceptor. Also, the cell membrane was engineered by employing Pseudomonas aeruginosa cis-trans isomerase to enhance MA tolerance. High inoculum fed-batch fermentation of the final engineered strain produced 61 g/L of MA with an overall productivity of 2.27 g/L/h, which is the highest MA productivity reported to date. The systems metabolic engineering strategies reported in this study will be useful for developing anaerobic bioprocesses for the production of various industrially important chemicals.
