毛叶芋兰的生物学特性和栽培技术

药用植物毛叶芋兰一般每年仅从地下块茎或根状茎顶端长出一片新叶,地下部分有真菌共生,地上部生活期短,平均为１６９天。花芽５月中旬出土,６月中旬果熟,花果期约３０天。毛叶芋兰通常生长于以漫射光为主,或短时直射光,土壤潮湿疏松,透水性良好,ｐＨ４．４～６．５的灌木林下。栽培时,应根据毛叶芋兰生境条件选择植地,并注意防止积水和虫害。     

猪瘟病毒反义基因在培养细胞上的效应研究——反义基因对猪瘟病毒的抑制作用

应用免疫荧光抗体技术检测了整合有猪瘟病毒反义基因的PK-15细胞克隆对猪瘟病毒的抑制效应。结果表明,五个不同的反义基因片段对猪瘟病毒的抑制效率存在很大差异,其中A片段的抑制效率最高(94％～98％),B片段次之(58％～76％),C片段再次(～64％),D片段和E片段未见明显的抑制效应。抑制效率的差异可能与反义基因片段的位置、长短以及反义RNA表达质粒载体的差异有关。     

Expression of soybean nodulin 26 in transgenic tobacco. Targeting to the vacuolar membrane and effects on floral and seed development.

Nodulin 26 is an integral membrane protein of the symbiosome membrane of nitrogen-fixing soybean nodules. We expressed a nodulin 26 cDNA in transgenic tobacco (TN26 tobacco) under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter to study subcellular targeting and the physiological effect(s) of its expression. Based on Northern and Western blots, the expression of nodulin 26 mRNA and protein in transgenic plants is high in apical shoot sections, flowers, and stems, low in mature leaves, and absent in roots. Western blot analysis revealed high levels of transgenic nodulin 26 protein in tonoplast membranes. In contrast, nodulin 26 protein was not found in isolated plasma membranes, the soluble fraction, nor in chloroplast and mitochondria-enriched membrane fractions. About 50-60% of the flowers and pods from TN26 tobacco plants abscised prematurely. Seed capsule size and seed fill per capsule from the remainder of surviving flowers were about 50% of that of control plants. Pollen viability was found to be normal, but flowers from TN26 tobacco plants showed shorter anther filaments compared with control plants. Normal seed production and capsule size was restored by manually crossing the stigmas from TN26 plants with isolated pollen from either transgenic or control plants. Thus, the aberrant filament growth could have resulted in the reproductive defects associated with the plants.     

Escherichia coli protein StpA stimulates self-splicing by promoting RNA assembly in vitro.

An Escherichia coli gene, stpA, has been identified and cloned based on its ability to suppress the Td- phenotype of a resident, splicing-defective phage T4 td (thymidylate synthase) gene. The stpA gene, which was localized to 60.24 min on the E. coli chromosome, encodes a 15.3-kDa protein. Overproduction of StpA in vivo led to an increase in td pre-mRNA levels and modest enhancement of td mRNA:pre-mRNA ratios. Consistent with its in vivo effect, purified StpA promoted RNA splicing in vitro, and facilitated RNA annealing and strand exchange with model substrates. These results suggest that StpA promotes splicing of the intron by binding RNA nonspecifically, resolving misfolded precursor molecules and facilitating association of critical base pair elements. Furthermore, proteinase K treatment of StpA-assembled precursors prior to the initiation of the splicing reaction still resulted in splicing enhancement, indicating that StpA is not required for the catalytic step, unlike the Neurospora splicing effector CYT-18, whose presence was necessary for catalysis to proceed. Together these results suggest that StpA has chaperone activity in vitro, with the property of promoting assembly of the precursors into an active conformation, in contrast to splicing effectors that stabilize the catalytically active intron structure.     

新疆六个民族指纹白线的调查研究The hand Print of Six Nationalities in Xinjiang

本文首次报道了新家6各民族6134人（南3181人、女2953人）的指纹白线出现频率。结果表明,白线频率女高于男,民族间亦有差异,其中维吾尔、哈萨克、鸟孜别克族频率接近。塔吉克族居住高寒高原地区,属白色人种,频率明显低于以上3个民族,锡伯族和汉族生活习惯近似,且高于以上4个民族,作者认为,白线出现频率的高低与种族、性别、年龄和群体生长环境及生活习惯有关。We’ve studied 6134 individuals (male 3181, fimale 2953) of six nationalities in Xinjiang.The result is that the white line of hand print is associated with rae,sex,age,grow environments of groups and life habbits.The ifference of races is:The appearant rates of white line of Weivuerite,Hasakese and Wuzibese are near,Tajike’s rate is lower than xiboman’s and han are higher than others.     

Functional and physical interaction between p53 and BZLF1: implications for Epstein-Barr virus latency.

The p53 tumor suppressor protein, which is commonly mutated in human cancers, has been shown to interact directly with virally encoded from papillomavirus, adenovirus, and simian virus 40. The disruption of p53 function may be required for efficient replication of certain viruses and may also play a role in the development of virally induced malignancies. Infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been associated with the development of B-cell lymphomas and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Here we show that the EBV immediate-early protein, BZLF1 (Z), which is responsible for initiating the switch from latent to lytic infection, can interact directly in vitro and in vivo with the tumor suppressor protein, p53. This interaction requires the coiled-coil dimerization domain of the Z protein and the carboxy-terminal portion of p53. Overexpression of wild-type p53 inhibits the ability of Z to disrupt viral latency. Likewise, Z inhibits p53-dependent transactivation in lymphoid cells. The direct interaction between Z and p53 may play a role in regulating the switch from latent to lytic viral infection.
