本文研究了PHA刺激18小时收获的脐血T细胞条件培养液(PHA-TCM)对正常人骨髓CFU-c的影响。结果显示PHA-TCM能够显著抑制CFU-c的生长,这种抑制与PHA-TCM浓度有关。并发现经PHA-TCM作用后M型集落比例明显降低。PHA-TCM中未检出IFN和IL-2活性。进一步研究证实,PHA-TCM中CFU-c抑制活性是一种对酸碱敏感对热相对不敏感的蛋白质,其分子量大于10,000道尔顿。     

A SPOROPHYTE CELL WALL PROTEIN OF THE RED ALGA PORPHYRA PURPUREA (RHODOPHYTA) IS A NOVEL MEMBER OF THE CHYMOTRYPSIN FAMILY OF SERINE PROTEASES1

A complementary DNA (cDNA) clone from a Porphyra purpurea (Roth) C. Agardh sporophyte-specific subtracted cDNA library was found to encode a protein similar to serine proteases of the chymotrypsin class. The encoded protein contains a typical signal peptide and is particularly similar to chymotrypsins in the regions surrounding the active site residues and the activation site where cleavage of the propeptide occurs. In addition, the six cysteine residues characteristic of chymotrypsins are conserved. However, two of the three residues of the active site His/Asp/Ser charge relay triad have been replaced, indicating that the protein is unlikely to have peptidase activity. Northern hybridization confirmed that this cDNA is derived from an abundant, sporophyte-specific messenger RNA (mRNA). The presence of signal peptide on the encoded protein and the abundance of its mRNA suggested that this protein might be localized in the cell wall. Consequently, sporophyte cell walls were isolated and a major protein having a molecular weight similar to that estimated for the encoded protein was purified. N-terminal sequence analysis indicated that this cell wall protein is identical to that encoded by the cDNA with the amino terminus of the mature protein beginning at the activation site. This cell wall structural protein appears to have evolved from a chymotrypsin-like progenitor but has been adapted to bind cell wall proteins and/or polysaccharides rather than to cleave proteins.

以不同抗盐小麦 (Triticum aestivum L.)为材料 ,研究了 CO2 /盐冲击对幼苗生长状况、叶绿素含量、光呼吸和三羧酸循环 (TCAC)关键酶活性的影响。结果表明 :Na Cl抑制小麦生长 ,而 CO2 促进生长 ,这种效应盐处理植株比非盐处理植株明显 ;Na Cl降低叶绿素含量 ,CO2 可使其轻微提高 ;盐对普通小麦TCAC中的异柠檬酸脱氢酶 (IDH)、琥珀酸脱氢酶 (SDH)、苹果酸脱氢酶 (MDH)和光呼吸中的乙醇酸氧化酶 (GO)、羟基丙酮酸还原酶 (HPR)有刺激作用 ,CO2 则抑制它们的活性。抗盐小麦对 CO2 /盐冲击的反应与普通小麦有差别。结果可以说明 ,CO2 能够减轻 Na Cl对植物的毒害效应     

利用植物激素调控嫁接形成的初步研究

利用黄瓜（Ｃｕｃｕｍ ｉｓｓａｔｉｖｕｓ）试管苗进行离体茎段自体嫁接,研究ＩＢＡ 和６－ＢＡ 对嫁接形成的影响时发现：进行离体茎段嫁接时,用试管苗茎段可简化嫁接过程,减少污染。嫁接茎段的颜色变化、不定根发生和愈伤组织形成与激素浓度有关。植物激素通过影响砧木和接穗间维管束桥形成的时间和数目调控嫁接组合的发育。在作者的实验中,最佳的激素条件是：在接穗培养基中加ＩＢＡ １．２ ｍ ｇ／Ｌ,在接穗和砧木培养基中加６－ＢＡ ０．３ ｍ ｇ／Ｌ。

Production of L(+)-lactic acid with Rhizopus oryzae immobilized in polyurethane foam cubes

Summary Polyurethane foam cubes were employed as carriers to immobilize Rhizopus oryzae for L(+)-lactic acid production. The immobilizing capacity reached 450 g-fresh cell/l-cube. The production rate of L(+)-lactic acid could be threefold increased by using the immobilized R. oryzae. The immobilized cells could be steadily used in repetitive fermentations for more than 10 batches.     

Elongation factor 1α genes of the red alga Porphyra purpurea include a novel, developmentally specialized variant

The life cycle of the red alga Porphyra purpurea alternates between two morphologically distinct phases: a shell-boring, filamentous sporophyte and a free-living, foliose gametophyte. From a subtracted cDNA library enriched for sporophyte-specific sequences, we isolated a cDNA encoding an unusual elongation factor 1 (EF-1) that is expressed only in the sporophyte. A second EF-1 gene that is expressed equally in the sporophyte and the gametophyte was isolated from a genomic library. These are the only EF-1 genes detectable in P. purpurea. The constitutively expressed gene encodes and EF-1 very similar to those of most eukaryotes. However, the sporophyte-specific EF-1 is one of the most divergent yet described, with nine insertions or deletions ranging in size from 1 to 26 amino acids. This is the first report of a developmental stage-specific EF-1 outside of the animal kingdom and suggests a fundamental role for EF-1 in the developmental process.
