Ethylene production in rice bronzing leaves induced by ferrous iron

Bronzing, a nutritional disorder of rice plants which is widely distributed in tropical lowlands, was induced by dipping the cut end of rice leaves into FeSO₄ solution (pH 3.5). Ethylene production; the activities of peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase; and the effects of Co²⁺, aminoethoxyvinylglycine, Ag⁺, cycloheximide, and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate, were investigated in the course of bronzing development. It was found that ethylene production could be stimulated up to about 20 times that of the control by Fe²⁺, and a peak could be reached at about 24 h after incubation. The Fe²⁺-treated leaves also had 10-fold higher peroxidase activity than the control, whereas in vitro enzyme activity was inhibited by Fe²⁺. Cycloheximide retarded in vivo stimulation of peroxidase, indicating that in vivo stimulation resulted from inducing de novo synthesis of the enzyme. No changes in the activities of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and polyphenol oxidase were observed. The results, obtained from the incubation of leaves with Co²⁺, aminoethoxyvinylglycine, Ag⁺, cycloheximide, or 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate, showed that ethylene production was the effect of Fe²⁺ stress and that it was not involved in the process of bronzing development, which is probably an acclimation process to enable plants to cope with stress. The accelerated peroxidase activity may be associated with bronzing development.Abbreviations ACC 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid - AVG aminoethoxyvinylglycine - EFE ethylene forming enzyme - PAL phenylalanine ammonia-lyase - POD peroxidase - PPO polyphenol oxidase - SE standard error     

人为调节荔枝果皮有机自由基及其与果皮变褐的可能关系

荔枝果实以10ppm的6-BA、NAA、GA_3 NAA或PVP(1%) NAA处理2min,1℃贮藏8天后再于室温放2天。EPR分析表明果皮的有机自由基(g因子2.0030)比对照低9%—22%,花色素苷含量高5%—46%。离体果皮小圆片经同法浸泡1h或16h,有机自由基反而比对照高。O_2~-的捕获剂Tiron和抗氧化剂PG CA处理果皮小圆片1h,有机自由基降低8%—11%,处理16h则自由基高于对照。邻苯二酚(pH 8.4)和H_2O_2加速果色变褐,有机自由基增高10%—370%。果皮离体后自由基的EPR波谱特征也发生变化,除了一个g因子2.0026—2.0027的主峰外,尚出现另一个小峰。结果表明荔枝果皮褐变的部分原因是有机自由基增高之故。

由于精胺（ｓｐｅｒｍｉｎｅ）能特异地刺激哺乳动物ｔＲＮＡ~（Ｉｌｅ）的氨基酰化,本文用纯化的牛肝ｔＲＮＡ~（Ｉｌｅ）观察了精胺和Ｍｇ（２＋）对ｔＲＮＡ~（Ｉｌｅ）ＣＤ光谱的影响。结果显示：Ｍｇ（２＋）可使牛肝ｔＲＮＡ~（Ｉｌｅ）ＣＤ光谱峰向短波方向偏移２ｎｍ,波峰为２６３ｎｍ,峰值被增大约１０％,ΔθＭｇ（２＋）＝２．３×１０３ｄｅｇ·ｃｍ２／ｄｍｏｌ;而精胺使牛肝ｔＲＮＡ~（Ｉｌｅ）ＣＤ光谱峰减少４０％,Δθｓｐｅｒｍｉｎｅ＝１×１０（－４）ｄｅｇ·ｃｍ２／ｄｍｏｌ;精胺和Ｍｇ（２＋）对肝ｔＲＮＡ~（Ｉｌｅ）－ＩｌｅＲＳ复合物或ＩｌｅＲＳ的ＣＤ光谱基本无影响。表明Ｍｇ（２＋）和精胺可影响牛肝ｔＲＮＡ~（Ｉｌｅ）的构象。实验同时以酵母ｔＲＮＡ（Ｐｈｅ）和Ｅ·ｃｏｌｉｔＲＮＡ~（Ｉｌｅ）作为对照。     

Cell cycle regulation of the p34cdc2 inhibitory kinases.

In cells of higher eukaryotic organisms the activity of the p34cdc2/cyclin B complex is inhibited by phosphorylation of p34cdc2 at two sites within its amino-terminus (threonine 14 and tyrosine 15). In this study, the cell cycle regulation of the kinases responsible for phosphorylating p34cdc2 on Thr14 and Tyr15 was examined in extracts prepared from both HeLa cells and Xenopus eggs. Both Thr14- and Tyr15- specific kinase activities were regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner. The kinase activities were high throughout interphase and diminished coincident with entry of cells into mitosis. In HeLa cells delayed in G2 by the DNA-binding dye Hoechst 33342, Thr14- and Tyr15-specific kinase activities remained high, suggesting that a decrease in Thr14- and Tyr15- kinase activities may be required for entry of cells into mitosis. Similar cell cycle regulation was observed for the Thr14/Tyr15 kinase(s) in Xenopus egg extracts. These results indicate that activation of CDC2 and entry of cells into mitosis is not triggered solely by activation of the Cdc25 phosphatase but by the balance between Thr14/Tyr15 kinase and phosphatase activities. Finally, we have detected two activities capable of phosphorylating p34cdc2 on Thr14 and/or Tyr15 in interphase extracts prepared from Xenopus eggs. An activity capable of phosphorylating Tyr15 remained soluble after ultracentrifugation of interphase extracts whereas a second activity capable of phosphorylating both Thr14 and Tyr15 pelleted. The pelleted fraction contained activities that were detergent extractable and that phosphorylated p34cdc2 on both Thr14 and Tyr15. The Thr14- and Tyr15-specific kinase activities co-purified through three successive chromatographic steps indicating the presence of a dual-specificity protein kinase capable of acting on p34cdc2.     

Polyamine regulation of Na+/glucose symporter expression in LLC-PK1 cells

Addition of polyamines or their analogs to newly confluent LLC-PK₁ cells resulted in down-regulation of Na⁺-glucose transport (symport) activity. Polyamines prevented the induction of this symporter by the differentiation inducer hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA) but did not influence induction by the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX). Partial depletion of endogenous polyamines after addition of α -difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) resulted in a 4 to 5-fold increase in symporter expression. Symporter induction by either HMBA or DFMO was inhibited by the protein kinase inhibitor H-7 but H-7 did not affect symporter induction by IBMX. Changes in symporter activity were accompanied by changes in levels of the 75 kD symporter subunit detected by Western blot. Cultures exposed to HMBA exhibited reduced levels of ornithine decarboxylase activity. Our results suggest that induction of symporter expression by HMBA may be mediated in part by its effects on polymine metabolism, and point to parallel roles of polyamines and cyclic AMP in regulating the expression of this physiologically important renal transport system. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
