The crystal structures of DsRed have shown that it contains an unusual non-proline containing cis peptide linkage. We have shown that it is also present in the precyclized immature form of DsRed, thereby eliminating the possibility that cis/trans isomerization drives the formation of the acylimine, which is responsible for DsRed's red fluorescence. Two mechanisms have been proposed for chromophore formation in green fluorescent protein (GFP), a "reduced" and an "oxidized" mechanism. DsRed adopts a tight turn conformation, such as that found in GFP, in the immature intermediate proposed in the oxidized mechanism, but not in the one predicted by the reduced mechanism. 相似文献

The present study reports a high frequency in vitro propagation protocol through apical bud sprouting and basal organogenic nodule formation in shoot tip explants of Decalepis hamiltonii, an endemic and endangered medicinal liana. Among different combinations of plant growth regulators (PGRs) and growth additives, maximum of 8.20 shoots per explant with mean shoot length of 6.54 cm were induced on Murashige and Skoog’s medium (MS) supplemented with 5.0 µM 6-benzyladenine (BA) + 0.5 µM indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) + 30.0 µM adenine sulphate (ADS) through apical bud sprouting. On single cytokinin treatment explants did not exhibit good multiplication but showed nodulation (N1) from the basal cut end similar to cytokinin–auxin combination (N2). Between two types of nodular tissues, N2 was proved to be better for maximum shoot regeneration (15.40 shoots per explant) and shoot length (4.56 cm) when cultured on MS medium supplemented with 5.0 µM BA, 0.5 µM IAA, 30.0 µM ADS and 1.0 µM gibberellic acid (GA3). Microshoots were efficiently rooted on half-strength MS medium supplemented with 2.5 μM α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). After successful acclimatization in Soilrite, 95.10 % plantlets were survived in field conditions. Histological investigation proved useful in ascertaining the callogenic nature of the regenerating nodular tissue formed at the basal cut end of shoot tip explant. Acclimatized plantlets were studied for the estimation of chlorophyll and carotenoid content as well as the net photosynthetic rate (PN) during subsequent days of transfer to ex vitro condition. Moreover, acclimatization had a significant effect on biomass production and the synthesis of 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy benzaldehyde (2HMB). Maximum fresh weight (3.78 gm/plant), dry weight (0.39 gm/plant) of roots and 2HMB content (15.94 µg/ml of extract) were noticed after 8 weeks of acclimatization. 相似文献

Presence of heavy metals including lead (Pb) in the textile effluents is a crucial factor affecting the growth and potential of the dye decolorizing bacterial strains. This work was planned to isolate and characterize a bacterial strain exhibiting the potential to decolorize a range of azo dyes as well as the resistance to Pb. In this study, several Pb tolerant bacteria were isolated from effluents of textile industry. These bacterial isolates were screened for their potential of decolorizing the reactive red-120 (RR120) azo dye with presence of Pb (50 mg L?1). The most efficient isolate was further characterized for its potential to resist Pb and decolorize different azo dyes under varying cultural and incubation conditions. Out of the total 82 tested bacterial isolates, 30 bacteria were found to have varying potentials to resist the presence of lead (Pb) and carry out decolorization of an azo dye reactive red-120 (RR120) in the medium amended with Pb (50 mg L?1). The most efficient selected bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain HF5, was found to show a good potential not only to grow in the presence of considerable concentration of Pb but also to decolorize RR120 and other azo dyes in the media amended with Pb. The strain HF5 completely (>?90%) decolorized RR120 in mineral salt medium amended with 100 mg L?1 of Pb and 20 g L?1 NaCl. This strain also considerably (>?50%) decolorized RR120 up to the presence of 2000 mg L?1 of Pb and 50 g L?1 of NaCl but with reduced rate. The optimal decolorization of RR120 by HF5 was achieved when the pH of the Pb amended (100 mg L?1) mineral salt media was adjusted at 7.5 and 8.5. Interestingly, this strain also showed the tolerance to a range of metal ions with varying MIC values. The Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain HF5 harboring the unique potentials to grow and decolorize the azo dyes in the presence of Pb is envisaged as a potential bioresource for devising the remediation strategies for treatment of colored textile wastewaters loaded with Pb and other heavy metal ions. 相似文献

The present study describes the first attempt of exploiting encapsulation technology for high plantlet recovery, short-term storage and conservation of Gymnema sylvestre—an antidiabetic liana. Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) pretreated nodal segments (NS) were encapsulated in sodium alginate (Na2-alginate) matrix and the optimal culture conditions were evaluated in terms of maximum conversion capacity of synseeds into complete plantlets. Highest conversion frequency of synseeds was obtained on Murashige and Skoog’s (MS) medium supplemented with 5.0 µM 6-benzyladenine (BA). Augmentation of Na2-alginate matrix with plant growth regulators (PGRs) and additive further improved in vitro conversion rates and the synthetic endosperm composed of 3% Na2-alginate in MS?+?2.5 µM BA?+?2.5 µM gibberellic acid (GA3)?+?50 µM adenine sulphate (AdS) stimulated maximum recovery (88.2?±?0.48%) of complete plantlets from synseeds. Studies on short term cold storage of synseeds showed that nutrient encapsulation maintains the viability of NS for a storage period of 8 weeks. Ex-vitro conversion of synseeds was also carried out on soilrite and vermicompost (3:1) mixture under culture room conditions. Monomorphic DNA profiles produced through Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers confirmed the genetic uniformity between synseed derived and mother plantlets. 相似文献

The prime objective of this research work is to prepare readily soluble synthetic analogues of naturally occurring 3-O-flavonol glycosides and then investigate the influence of various substituents on biological properties of synthetic compounds. In this context, a series of varyingly substituted 3-O-flavonol glycosides have been designed, synthesized and characterized efficiently. The structures of synthetic molecules were unambiguously corroborated by IR, 1H, 13C NMR and ESI-MS spectroscopic techniques. The structure of compound 22 was also analyzed by X-ray diffraction analysis. All the synthetic compounds (21–30) were evaluated for in vitro inhibitory potential against cholinesterase enzymes. The results displayed that most of the derivatives were potent inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) with varying degree of IC50 values. The experimental results were further encouraged by molecular docking studies in order to explore their binding behavior with the active pocket of AChE and BChE enzymes. The experimental and theoretical results are in parallel with one another. 相似文献

Oryza minuta (Poaceae family) is a tetraploid wild relative of cultivated rice with a BBCC genome. O. minuta has the potential to resist against various pathogenic diseases such as bacterial blight (BB), white backed planthopper (WBPH) and brown plant hopper (BPH). Here, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of O. minuta. The mtDNA genome is 515,022 bp, containing 60 protein coding genes, 31 tRNA genes and two rRNA genes. The mitochondrial genome organization and the gene content at the nucleotide level are highly similar (89%) to that of O. rufipogon. Comparison with other related species revealed that most of the genes with known function are conserved among the Poaceae members. Similarly, O. minuta mt genome shared 24 protein-coding genes, 15 tRNA genes and 1 ribosomal RNA gene with other rice species (indica and japonica). The evolutionary relationship and phylogenetic analysis revealed that O. minuta is more closely related to O. rufipogon than to any other related species. Such studies are essential to understand the evolutionary divergence among species and analyze common gene pools to combat risks in the current scenario of a changing environment. 相似文献

Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens) is an important biological control agent currently being used in many integrated pest management (IPM) programs to control insect pests. The effect of post-treatment temperature on insecticide toxicity of a spinosyn (spinosad), pyrethroid (lambda cyhalothrin), organophosphate (chlorpyrifos) and new chemistry (acetamiprid) to C. carnea larvae was investigated under laboratory conditions. Temperature coefficients of each insecticide tested were evaluated. From 20 to 40 °C, toxicity of lambda cyhalothrin and spinosad decreased by 2.15- and 1.87-fold while toxicity of acetamiprid and chlorpyrifos increased by 2.00 and 1.79-fold, respectively. The study demonstrates that pesticide effectiveness may vary according to environmental conditions. In cropping systems where multiple insecticide products are used, attention should be given to temperature variation as a key factor in making pest management strategies safer for biological control agents. Insecticides with a negative temperature coefficient may play a constructive role to conserve C. carnea populations. 相似文献

In vitro regeneration was achieved through callus culture derived from cotyledon explants of Cassia angustifolia Vahl. on MS (Murashige and Skoog, 1962) medium. Calli were induced from cotyledon explants excised from aseptic 14?days old seedlings on MS medium containing 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) and 2,4,5-T (2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic acid) at different concentrations with 3% sucrose and 0.8% agar. Optimal growth of callus was obtained at 5.0???M 2,4-D, which was proved to be the best for shoot regeneration when sub cultured onto MS medium supplemented with cytokinins either alone or in combination with an auxin. Maximum number of shoots (23.2?±?1.4) were produced at 5.0???M 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) and 0.4???M ??-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). Regenerated shoots produced prominent roots when transferred to half strength MS medium supplemented with 1.0???M indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and 5.0???M phloroglucinol (PG). Rooted plantlets thus developed were hardened and successfully established in the soil. This protocol yielded an average of 23 plants per cotyledon explant over a period of 4?months. 相似文献
