缺失型Duchenne/Becker 肌营养不良家系女性携带者及新发突变的确认

应用多重PCR（multiple polymerase reaction／mPCR）技术,联合DMD基因内部及附近11个短串连重复序列（short tandem repeats,STRs）位点连锁分析,对缺失型Duchenne／Beeker肌营养不良（Duchenne／Becker Muscular Dystrophy,DMD／BMD）家系成员进行DMD基因分型,确定家系中女性成员是否携带者,并进行产前诊断。3个家系中的4名缺失型患者,其中2例为新发突变：4位女性成员中,1名为携带者。应用mPCR和11个STRs的连锁分析,能快速、准确、客观判断家系中女性成员是否携带者身份,适于DMD／BMD临床研究机构遗传咨询、基因诊断和产前诊断常规应用。但在mPCR分析过程中,发现45号外显子扩增产物在不同凝胶中电泳迁移率不同。聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳（Polyacrylamide Gels Electrophoresis／PAGE）对mPCR产物分析快速、清晰,但需要注意片段迁移率,以防止分析错误。     

淹水和干旱条件下水稻根系形成的QTLs及候选基因分析

为了研究不同水分条件下组成型根系性状和适应性根系性状的遗传机制,利用由IR64／Azucena发展的双单倍体（DH）群体分析了淹水和干旱条件下水稻幼苗种子根长（SRL）、不定根数（ARN）、总根干重（RW）及其对应的相对参数（干旱和淹水条件下根系性状的比值）的QTLs。淹水与干旱条件下检测到一个共同的种子根长QTL和一个共同的总根干重QTL。同时对前人发表的遗传群体定位的根系性状QTLs进行比较分析,检测到几个共同的根系性状QTLs。对与细胞伸长、分裂相关的候选基因进行了定位,其中4个细胞壁相关的ESTs（OsEXP2,OsEXP4,EXT和Xet）被定位在与不同水分条件下检测出的根系性状QTLs的相同区间。     

利用重组自交系和SSR标记进行陆地棉株型QTL的鉴定和定位

通过中棉所12与8891的杂交及多代自交,获得由180个家系构成的重组自交系F8、F9群体。重组自交系群体、两亲本及F1于2002、2003两年种植;对株型性状进行了研究,两年共调查了10个株型形状。利用该重组自交系群体,采用SSR为主体的分子标记构建了遗传连锁图,并对株型性状进行了单位点和双位点水平的QTL定位。结果表明,QTL加性效应和上位性互作效应作为棉花重组自交系株型性状的遗传基础起着重要作用;中棉所12与8891间多态性位点偏少,而表型差异较大且其杂交种湘杂棉二号有很强的杂种优势,QTL互作可部分解释这一现象：结合对产量品质性状的研究结果,认为上位性可能是湘杂棉二号杂种优势的重要遗传基础。     

Isolation and characterization of polymorphic microsatellite loci from the pink bollworm Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)

Thirteen polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed from an enriched partial genomic library for the pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders), one of the most important cotton pests in the world. The total number of alleles ranged from two to 12 for a sample of 50 individuals and the expected heterozygosity at these loci ranged from 0.042 to 0.830. Although the presence of null alleles in some loci is suspected, these polymorphic markers are likely to provide useful tools for the population genetic studies of this species.     

聚乙二醇对羟基丁酸和羟基己酸共聚物的共混改性研究

本研究以聚羟基脂肪酸酯家族中的新成员羟基丁酸和羟基己酸共聚物（PHBHHx）为基础,采用与聚乙二醇（PEG）共混的方法对其进行改性,研究结果证实：PHBHHx与PEG 共混物中比例为3:1及2:1时,两者完全物理相容。而PEG在共混物中比例升高时则导致相分离,成为部分相容体系。PEG掺入显著提高材料亲水性及表面自由能,使血管平滑肌细胞（RaSMCs）及血管内皮细胞（HUVECs）的细胞粘附及增殖大幅度提高,并且均具有一定的PEG含量依赖性。其中对RaSMCs的作用最为明显,RaSMCs能在PEG/PHBHHx比例为1:1的共混膜（E1X1）上持续增殖至融合,而HUVECs则呈粘附较差的类球形形貌,证实E1X1可以潜在应用于复合血管组织工程支架中的近内膜基材。     

珍稀濒危树种毛红椿微卫星DNA分离及SSR反应体系优化

本研究以江西宜丰种源毛红椿为材料,成功提取其基因组DNA。利用改良的链亲和素磁珠法亲和捕捉出毛红椿基因组微卫星DNA片断,并构建了富含微卫星的基因组文库。从构建的基因组文库中随机挑选了63个单克隆进行测序,其中50个单克隆成功测序,含有微卫星的单克隆有18个,并根据测序结果设计并合成SSR引物18对。利用所合成的引物优化SSR反应体系,对影响SSR反应的各个因子进行了探讨。确定了模板DNA浓度最适浓度为30ng;dNTP的最适浓度为0.3mmol·L-1;0.3μmol·L-1是引物在反应体系中的最合适浓度。建立了重复性好、稳定性好的SSR反应体系,为下一步进行毛红椿群体遗传结构和遗传变异研究提供了技术支持。

Estimation of Cellobiohydrolase I Activity by Numerical Differentiation of Dynamic Ultraviolet Spectroscopy

1,4-β-D-glucan cellobiohydrolase I (CBH I),p-nitrophenyl β-D-cellobioside,p-nitrophenol andcellobiose show distinct ultraviolet spectra,allowing the design of an assay to track the dynamic process ofp-nitrophenyl β-D-cellobioside hydrolysis by CBH I.Based on the linear relationship between p-nitrophenolformation in the hydrolysate and its first derivative absorption Curve of AUC340_400_(nm)(area under the curve),a new sensitive assay for the determination of CBH I activity was developed.The dynamic parameters ofcatalysis reaction,such as Vm and k_(cat),can all be derived from this result.The influence of β-glucosidase andendoglucanase in crude enzyme sample on the assay was discussed in detail.This approach is useful foraccurate determination of the activity of CBHs.     

Toxicological and biochemical characterizations of malathion sensitivity in two field populations of Oxya chinensis （Orthoptera： Acridoidea）

We evaluate comparative toxicity of malathion in the two populations of the grasshopper Oxya chinensis, collected from Daixian and Fanshi of Shanxi province, China. General esterases and acetylcholinesterase （ACHE） from the two populations were characterized and compared. LD50 of the Daixian population （7.58 μg/g body weight） was 2.02-fold higher than that of the Fanshi population （3.75μg/g body weight）. General esterase-specific activities in the Daixian population were 1.91,130 and 1.85-fold higher than those in the Fanshi population, when α-NA, α-NB and β-NA were used as a substrate, respectively. Kinetic studies of general esterase showed that Vmax values of general esterases hydrolyzing α-NA,α-NB and β-NA in the Daixian population were 2.15-, 1.12-, and 1.47-fold, respectively, higher than those in the Fanshi population. The AChE activity of the Fanshi population was 1.54-fold higher than that of the Daixian population. Kinetic analysis of AChE showed that significant differences were presented between the two populations in the Km values; and the Vmax value in the Fanshi population was higher than that in the Daixian population. Inhibition studies of AChE indicated that AChE from the Daixian population was 2.56-, 2.80-, and 2.29-fold less sensitive to inhibition by paraoxon, chlorpyrifos-oxon, and demeton-S-methyl, respectively, than that from the Fanshi population. These biochemical characterizations of general esterases and AChE were consistent with malathion bioassay in the two populations. It is inferred that the reduced sensitivity of altered AChE and increased general esterase activities play an important role in the differences of insusceptibility of Oxya chinensis to malathion between the two populations.
