锌离子对氨基酰化酶构象及其稳定性的影响

天然氨基酰化酶和脱谷氨基酰化酶无论在二级结构（用ＣＤ和ＦＴＩＲ监测）还是三级结构上（以荧光发射光谱监测）都有明显的差异,表明了脱锌后酶的有序度降低;当比较天然和脱锌氨基酸化酶对去圬剂的稳定性时,结果表明脱锌后酶的构象的稳定性明显降低．因此可以认为锌离子对维持酶分子活性部位的特定构象以及构象的稳定性具有重要的作用．

Nitric oxide and carbon monoxide as possible retrograde messengers in hgippocampal long-term potentiation

We have been investigating the hypothesis that the membrane-permeant molecules nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide(CO) may act as retrograde messengers during long-term potentiation (LTP). Inhibitors of either NO synthase or heme oxygenase, the enzyme that produces CO, blocked induction of LTP in the CA1 region of hippocampal slices. Brief application of either NO or CO to slices produced a rapid and long-lasting increase in the size of synaptic potentials if, and only if, the application occurred at the same time as weak tetanic stimulation of the presynaptic fibers. The long-term enhancement by NO or CO was spatially restricted to synapses from active presynaptic fibers and appeared to involve mechanisms utilized by LTP, occluding the subsequent induction of LTP by strong tetanic stimulation. The enhancement by No or CO was not blocked by the NMDA receptor blocker APV, suggesting that NO and CO act downstream for the NMDA receptor. In other systems, both NO and CO produce many of their effects by activation of soluble guanylyl cyclase nd cGMP-dependent protein kinase. An inhibitor of soluble guabylyl cyclase blocked the induction of normal LTP. Conversely, membrane-permeabel analog 8-Br-cGMP produced a rapid onset and long-lasting synaptic enhancement if, and only if, it was applied at the same time as weak presynaptic stimulation. Similarly, two inhibitors of cGMP-dependent protein kinase blocked the induction of normal LTP, and a selective activator of cGMP-dependent protein kinase produced activity-dependent long-lasting synaptic enhancement. 8-Br-cGMP also produced and activity-dependent, long-lasting increase in the amplitude of evoked synaptic current between pairs of hippocampal neurons in dissociated cell culture. In addition, 8-Br-cGMP, like NO, produced a long-lasting increase in the frequency of spontaneous miniature synaptic currents. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that NO and CO, either alone or in combination, serve as retrograde messengers that produce activity-dependent presynaptic enhancement, perhaps by stimulating soluble guanbylyl cyclase and cGMP-dependent protein kinase, during LTP in hippocampus. 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

毛鹃‘紫萼’秋梢花芽发育的研究

本研究首次发现了毛鹃花芽分化过程中的一个特殊现象──秋季侧花芽伸长生长现象。并认为充足的光照,适宜的气温（２５°─２６℃）及充沛的降水伴随较高的空气相对湿度是导致这种花芽伸长生长的主要环境因子。也进一步证实了毛鹃是一类较喜阳生生境的灌木花卉。

Calcineurin B-like interacting protein kinase 31 confers resistance to sheath blight via modulation of ROS homeostasis in rice

Sheath blight (ShB) severely threatens rice cultivation and production; however, the molecular mechanism of rice defence against ShB remains unclear. Screening of transposon Ds insertion mutants identified that Calcineurin B-like protein-interacting protein kinase 31 (CIPK31) mutants were more susceptible to ShB, while CIPK31 overexpressors (OX) were less susceptible. Sequence analysis indicated two haplotypes of CIPK31: Hap_1, with significantly higher CIPK31 expression, was less sensitive to ShB than the Hap_2 lines. Further analyses showed that the NAF domain of CIPK31 interacted with the EF-hand motif of respiratory burst oxidase homologue (RBOHA) to inhibit RBOHA-induced H₂O₂ production, and RBOHA RNAi plants were more susceptible to ShB. These data suggested that the CIPK31-mediated increase in resistance is not associated with RBOHA. Interestingly, the study also found that CIPK31 interacted with catalase C (CatC); cipk31 mutants accumulated less H₂O₂ while CIPK31 OX accumulated more H₂O₂ compared to the wild-type control. Further analysis showed the interaction of the catalase domain of CatC with the NAF domain of CIPK31 by which CIPK31 inhibits CatC activity to accumulate more H₂O₂.     

长江中下游江豚种群现状评价

作者根据近年在长江中下游对江豚进行考察的资料和收集到的标本,系统分析评价了长江中下游江豚的种群现状,主要结果如下:1.长江江豚上至宜昌(距河口1669公里),下至长江口,以及洞庭湖、鄱阳湖均有分布。分布型式是沿长江纵向呈集群性分布,横向呈趋岸性分布;2.长江中下游江豚种群数量估计为2700头。其数量冬季最高,夏季最低。夏季的SPUE值仅为冬季的48.7％—58.6％;3.长江中下游江豚群体以1—5头最为常见,占88％;4.理论推算长江中下游每年新产生个体为539头,年出生率为20％;5.通过分析比较长江中下游和中国沿海以及日本Inland Sea江豚种群数量变动趋势,推测长江中下游江豚很可能进行“江—海”、“海—江”长距离大规模的迁移,这种迁移与生殖有关。

Irradiation of the bovine mitochondrial F1-ATPase previously inactivated with 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl-8-azido-[3H]adenosine cross-links His-beta 427 to Tyr-beta 345 within the same beta subunit.

The bovine heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase (MF1) is inactivated by 5'-p'-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl-8-azidoadenosine (8-N3-FSBA) with an apparent Kd of 0.47 mM at pH 8.0 and 23 degrees C in the absence of light. Irradiation of dark-inactivated enzyme with long-wavelength UV light produced cross-linked dimers and, to a lesser extent, trimers made up of alpha and beta subunits. Two major radioactive peptides were resolved by high-performance liquid chromatography from tryptic digests of MF1 which had been inactivated with 8-N3-FSB[3H]A at pH 8.0 in the dark. Sequence analysis revealed that one contained Tyr-beta 368 and the other contained His-beta 427 which were labeled in the ratio of 18:15. Sequence analysis of radioactive tryptic peptides isolated from digests of irradiated MF1 derivatized with 8-N3-FSB[3H]A showed that photolysis induced cross-linking of His-427 to Tyr-345 within the same beta subunit in high yield. When MF1 derivatized with 8-N3-FSB[3H]A was irradiated in the presence of beta-mercaptoethanol, alpha-beta cross-links were eliminated, whereas those between His-beta 427 and Tyr-beta 345 were unaffected. Analysis of radioactive peptides in tryptic digests of MF1 derivatized with 8-N3-FSB[3H]A and then irradiated in the presence or absence of beta-mercaptoethanol showed that the nitrene generated from reagent attached to Tyr-beta 368 participates in formation of alpha-beta cross-links in the absence of beta-mercaptoethanol. Therefore, the nitrene generated from reagent tethered to His-beta 427 is shielded from solvent and reacts with the side chain of Tyr-beta 345. In contrast, the nitrene generated from reagent attached to Tyr-beta 368 is exposed to solvent, but in the absence of scavengers reacts with side chains present in the alpha subunit. Irradiation of MF1, partially inactivated with 8-N3-FSBA, led to loss of residual ATPase activity without affecting residual ITPase activity. The amount of photoinactivation was greater when partial dark inactivation was performed at pH 6.9, where modification of His-beta 427 predominates, than when performed at pH 8.0, where modification of Tyr-beta 368 predominates. This suggests that cross-linking of His-beta 427 to Tyr-beta 345, and not cross-linking of alpha and beta subunits, is responsible for the augmented inactivation induced by irradiation.
