高必需氨基酸转基因马铃薯的研究

８０年代以来,马铃薯遗传转化系统日趋成熟,转基因工程植株已被广泛应用于基础科学研究［１］。作为食物蛋白和能量主要来源的马铃薯,提高其蛋白质含量及质量的遗传工程研究正受到人们的普遍关注［２］。Ｙａｎｇ等［２］将旨在改善氨基酸平衡的ＣＡＴ－ＨＥＡＡＥ（氯酶素乙酰转移酶－高含量人体必需氨基酸）融合基因导入马铃薯,获得了Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎｂｌｏｔ、Ｎｏｒｔｈｅｒｎｂｌｏｔ、Ｗｅｓｔｅｒｎｂｌｏｔ的证据,但尚缺少氨基酸分析的资料。玉米醇溶蛋白（ｚｅｉｎ）［３］是一个富含甲硫氨酸的贮存蛋白,它和人工合成的ＨＥ…     

Crankshaft motions of the polypeptide backbone in molecular dynamics simulations of human type-α transforming growth factor

Summary Order parameters for the backbone N–H and C–H bond vectors have been calculated from a 150 ps molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of human type- transforming growth factor in H₂O solvent. Two kinds of crankshaft motions of the polypeptide backbone are observed in this MD trajectory. The first involves small-amplitude rocking of the rigid peptide bond due to correlated changes in the backbone dihedral angles _i–1 and _i. These high-frequency librational crankshaft motions are correlated with systematically smaller values of motional order parameters for backbone N–H bond vectors compared to C–H bond vectors. In addition, infrequent crankshaft flips of the peptide bond from one local minimum to another are observed for several amino acid residues. These MD simulations demonstrate that comparisons of N–H and C–H order parameters provide a useful approach for identifying crank-shaft librational motions in proteins.

鱼腥藻HB1017株化能异养生长的研究

以葡萄糖和蔗糖为碳源,检测了六株（种）鱼腥藻的化能异养生产能力。其中鱼腥藻ＨＢ１０１７株化能异养生长较快,鱼腥藻ＨＢ０株化能异养生长缓慢,其余四种鱼腥藻不能进行化能异养生长。鱼腥藻ＨＢ１０１７株能利用果糖、葡萄糖、蔗糖为底物进行化能异养生长,但生长速率依次递减,差别显著。８磅湿热灭菌的果糖和蔗糖,与过滤灭菌的相比,只能维持低得多的化能异养生长速率。然而,８磅湿热灭菌的葡萄糖能维持比过滤法灭菌的高得

Comparison of proteinase inhibitor-inducing activities and phytoalexin elicitor activities of a pure fungal endopolygalacturonase, pectic fragments, and chitosans

Rhizopus stolonifer endopolygalacturonase, an elicitor of casbene synthetase activity in castor bean seedlings, was found to be a potent elicitor of the phytoalexin pisatin in pea pods and of proteinase Inhibitor I in tomato leaves. The enzyme was an active elicitor or inducer only in its active native state; heat-denatured enzyme was inactive in all three systems. The activities of (a) the tomato pectic polysaccharide proteinase inhibitor-inducing factor, (b) a partially acid hydrolyzed proteinase inhibitor-inducing factor, (c) citrus pectic fragments, and (d) chitosan, were also compared in the three bioassay systems. The four oligosaccharide preparations were active in all three systems, but with different degrees of potency. In tomato leaves and pea pods, chitosans were most active, whereas in castor beans, the citrus pectic fragments were the best elicitors. The data presented support the hypothesis that plant and fungal cell wall fragments are important signals in mobilizing a wide variety of biochemically different types of plant defense responses, and that endopolygalacturonases play a key role in releasing the plant cell wall fragments during pest attacks.
