Effect of pH on isoamylase production by Pseudomonas amyloderamosa WU 5315

The isoamylase activity of Pseudomonas amyloderamosa WU 5315 was stable over the pH range from 5.5 to 6.25 while only about 30% of the activity remained at pH 6.5. Low isoamylase activity (418 U ml^-1) was produced by the cells grown at high pH. Activity reached almost 3000 U ml^-1 when pH was kept below 6.0 during the fermentation. With 1% glucose plus 2% maltose instead of 3% maltose as carbon source, however, no pH control was required and the isoamylase activity of Ps. amyloderamosa WU 5315 increased to 3400 U ml^-1.     

植物细胞离析酶的制备和应用

用 Aspergillus sp．A-19菌经固体发酵研制成一种新的植物细胞离析酶(SeparatasezA—P)。其离析单细胞的酶活力平均为70 767u／g,有效作用的pH在3．0—7．0,温度为20—45℃。发酵培养基配方是麸皮：桔皮粉：(NH₄)₂SO₄(w／w)为100:100:O．63,料水比为1 :2．0,培养适宜条件为25℃、60小时。     

转译优化对EPO基因在COS7细胞中表达的影响

利用ＣＯＳ７细胞暂时表达系统,研究转译起始序列对ＥＰＯ－ｃＤＮＡ表达的影响。通过ＤＮＡ重组技术,构建了原ＥＰＯ－ｃＤＮＡ表达载体ｐＣＳＶ－ＥＰＯ（１）,其转译起始序列为５＇ＡＡＴＴＣＡＴＧＧ３＇。同时通过定点突变技术,将起始序列改变成５＇ＣＣＡＣＣＡＴＧＧ３＇,而构建了另一表达载体ＰＣＳＶ－ＥＰＯ（２）。后经序列分析证明无误后和前均通过ＤＥＡＥ－ｄｅｘｔｒａｎ法转染ＣＯＳ７细胞上清,测定结果为     

离体条件下诱导番茄果实状结构的再生

以番茄（Ｌｙｃｏｐｅｒｓｉｃｏｎ ｅｓｃｕｌｅｎｔｕｍ Ｍｉｌｌ．）雌蕊和幼果的组织作外植体可以诱导果实状结构的再生。这种果实状结构在离体条件下能培养成熟,成熟时具红色。解剖观察表明：果实状结构由果肉和包围在外面的果皮组成,无种子和胎座。外源激素和外植体年龄的试验揭示：１．以雌蕊组织作外植体时,仅附加外源细胞分裂素就可以诱导果实状结构的再生,外源生长素似乎不是必需的,最高的诱导频率（５０．０％ ）出现在仅附加玉米素０．５ ｍ ｇ／Ｌ的组合。２．从直径４—１２ ｍ ｍ 的幼果上分离的外植体在附加外源激素的培养基上均可诱导果实状结构的再生,但只有从直径８ ｍ ｍ 的果实分离的组织块作外植体并将它们培养在６－ＢＡＰ ２ ｍ ｇ／Ｌ,ＮＡＡ０．１ ｍ ｇ／Ｌ的培养基上时,果实状结构的诱导频率最高（６２．５％ ）。为了探讨在果实状结构再生中表现出来的细胞全能性的表达,提出了植物细胞全能性的部分表达（Ｐａｒｔｉａｌｅｘｐｒｅｓｓｉｏｎ ｏｆｐｌａｎｔ ｃｅｌｌｔｏｔｉｐｏｔｅｎｃｙ）的概念并进行了讨论。

Effect of endotoxin on lipid order and motion in erythrocyte membranes

Electron paramagnetic resonance employing a lipid-specific spin label has been used to investigate the molecular effects of endotoxin on the physical state of bilayer lipids in rat erythrocyte membranes. When added at a concentration as low as 40 μg/ml to whole blood (plasma plus leukocytes present), decreased membrane lipid motion was found in subsequently washed and spin-labeled intact erythrocytes (P < 0.02). However, if endotoxin were added to washed, plasma plus leukocyte-free intact erythrocytes, no change in the motion of the spin label was found, suggesting that plasma-soluble substances and/or leukocytes are required to produce the change in the physical state of lipids. The decreased lipid motion found in these studies is discussed with reference to the known decreased deformability of endotoxin-treated red cells and to the pathogenesis of sepsis.     

Selection of antibiotic-resistant mutants with enhanced isoamylase activity in Pseudomonas amyloderamosa

Summary Isoamylase-hyperproducing strains of Pseudomonas amyloderamosa were bred by mutagenesis with UV light and N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (NTG). The selection criterion for such strains was based on the formation of large turbid zones around the bacterial colonies in agar medium containing antibiotics and 1% waxy corn starch. Mutant WN6410 was obtained by treating P. amyloderamosa JD210 with five cycles of 1 × 10⁴ J UV light and one cycle of NTG. P. amyloderamosa WN6410 had 22-fold increase in isoamylase activity when compared to wild-type strain SB15 and the maximal enzyme activity, 5,100 U/ml, could be achieved within 48 h in 2.5 L fed-batch fermentation.     

衣藻(Chlamydomonas sp)中间纤维及核纤层存在的证实(简报)

衣藻(Chlamydomonas sp)是属于绿藻门的最低等单细胞植物,为典型的真核生物。迄今以衣藻为材料所作的有关细胞骨架方面的研究多集中在微管蛋白(tubulin)。C.J.Miller等曾以衣藻(Chlamydomonas reinhardtii)全蛋白与几种中间纤维抗体进行免疫印迹实验有阳性反应,但是衣藻中是否存在中间纤维与核纤层是不清楚的问题。衣藻中间纤维与核纤层的形态研究更未见报道。目前认为中间纤维-核纤
