β－内酰胺酶启动子C－17缺失对其强度的影响

通过酶学手段在β－内酰胺酶启动子间隔序列中造成Ｃ－１７的缺失突变,以氨苄青霉素为底物,检测突变前后β－内酰胺酶活力变化,并作了细菌的Ａｍｐ耐受性试验,实验结果表明,Ｃ－１７的缺失突变使启动子强度增加约６０％,含有突变启动子的细菌对Ａｍｐ的抗性明显增强,突变体生长的半抑制浓度为２８０μｇ／ｍｌ,而在此浓度下野生型菌体吸光度只有突变体的５０％左右,对启动子强度增加的原因进行了讨论。     

血管活性肠多肽结合核苷酸性质的研究

采用光亲和技术检测了血管活性肠多肽(VIP)与核苷酸之间的相互作用,发现VIP可以特异性结合同位素标记的GTP,还发现未标记的GTP以及其它三磷酸核苷抑制这种结合,这意味着VIP与上述三磷酸核苷之间的结合是一种典型的可逆性的结合反应.发现低浓度的GDP,GMP不但不抑制VIP与同位素标记GTP的结合反应,反而增强这种结合.联系到其它研究者关于GTP影响VIP与其受体结合反应的结果,可认为VIP能可逆性地连接一种三磷酸核苷,这种连接受反应系统中不同核苷酸比例影响,通过这种连接来调节VIP与其受体之间的反应.     

豌豆种子发育过程中DNA和RNA的变化

实验结果表明：豌豆种子发育过程中单粒鲜重、ＤＮＡ和ＲＮＡ含量都随开花后日数增加而增加。其中豌豆开花第２１天,ＲＮＡ含量达最高峰,拖尾现象消失而趋于单一带区,ＤＮＡ的迁移率也降到最低,从而确定出豌豆开花后第２１天是基因转录活动降低的转折点,为种子蛋白质基因工程研究提供参考。

HLA-DP/DR interaction in early onset pauciarticular juvenile chronic arthritis

We investigated the polymorphic second exon of the HLA-DPB1 and HLA-DRB1 genes, using in vitro DNA amplification by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and oligonucleotide hybridization in 136 patients with early onset pauciarticular juvenile chronic arthritis (EOPA-JCA) and 199 healthy controls. The analysis of the HLA-DRB1 system revealed that most of the DRB1 alleles are not indifferent with respect to susceptibility to EOPA-JCA. There is a hierarchy of susceptible (DRB1*08, DR5), permissive (DRB1*01), moderately protective (DR2, DRB1*04), and protective (DRB1*07) alleles. In contrast, no hierarchy could be shown for the HLA-DPB1 system. DPB1*0201 was found to be susceptible. The relatively frequent alleles DPB1*0402 and DPB1*0401 seem to be indifferent. The associations with DPB1*0201, DR5, and DRB1*08 are independent of each other: that is to say they, are not brought about by linkage disequilibrium. The susceptible alleles DPB1*0201 and DR5 show evidence for interaction in the pathogenesis of EOPA-JCA. Interaction seems likely between DPB1*0201 and DRB1*08, DR5 and DRB1*08, or between DR6 and DRB1*08. The strongest interaction exists between DPB1*0201 and a common DQ factor associated with both DR5 and DRB1*08. Finally, we observed a hierarchy among the various marker combinations, where the risk of developing EOPA-JCA increases with the number of associated markers present in an individual.This work was supported by SFB217.The data presented here are part of the doctoral thesis of C. Paul.     

Polymorphism of the DQA1 promoter region (QAP) and DRB1, QAP,DQA1, DQB1 haplotypes in systemic lupus erythematosus

We have investigated the DNA polymorphism for the DQA1 promoter region (QAP) and HLA-class II DRB1, DQA1, and DQB1 genes in 178 central European patients with Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) using polymerase chain reaction and Dig-ddUTP labeled oligonucleotides. Increased frequencies of DRB1*02 and *03 are confirmed by DNA typing. In addition, the frequencies of DQA1*0501, *0102 and DQB1*0201, *0602 alleles are increased in the patients as compared to controls. The strongest association to SLE is found with DRB1*03 and DQB1*0201 alleles (p<10^–7, p corr. <10^–5 and p<10^–6, p corr. <10^–4, respectively). By investigating the DQA1 promoter region in the SLE patients we have detected nine different QAP variants. Increased frequencies of QAP1.2 and QAP4.1 are observed in patients as compared to controls (p <0.05, p corr. = n. s.). Analysis of linkage disquilibria demonstrates a very strong association between QAP variants and DQA1, DRB1 alleles. Certain QAP variants are completely associated with DQA1 and DRB1 alleles, whereas others can combine with different DQA1 and DRB1 alleles. All DRB1*02-positive patients and controls carry QAP1.2, and all DRB1*03-positive patients and controls carry QAP4.1. Conversely, the QAP1.2 variant appears only in DRB1*02 haplotypes, while the QAP4.1 variant can be observed in DRB1*03, *11, and *1303 haplotypes. Based on the strong linkage disequilibria between DRB1-DQA1-DQB1 genes and between DRB1-QAP-DQA1, we have deduced the four-point haplotypes for DRB1-QAP-DQA1-DQB1 in patients and controls. Two haplotypes DRB1*02-QAP1.2-DQA1*0102-DQB1*0602-and DRB1*03-QAP4.1-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201 are significantly increased in patient as compared to controls (p<0.01, p corr. = n.s., RR = 1.8 and p <10^–7, p corr. <10^–5, RR = 3.1, respectively). The analysis of relative risks attributed to the various alleles of QAP, DQA1, and DQB1 as well as the investigation of the deduced DRB1-QAP-DQA1-DQB1 haplotypes leads to the conclusion that QAP4.1 and DQA1*0501 on the DR3 haplotypes are probably not involved in SLE susceptibility. There is no evidence for the involvement of DQ2 / dimers coded in transposition. Thus, susceptibility to SLE is on the DR3 haplotype most probably localized at DRB1 or telomeric of DRB1, while for the DR2 haplotype such orientation cannot be given. SLE study group members: M.
