Genetic analysis of two tomato mutants affected in the regulation of iron metabolism

Iron is one of the most important micronutrients for plants. Like other organisms, plants have developed active mechanisms for the acquisition of sufficient iron from the soil. Nevertheless, very little is known about the genetic mechanisms that control the active uptake. In tomato, two spontaneously derived mutants are available, which are defective in key steps that control this process. The recessive mutationchloronerva (chln) affects a gene which controls the synthesis of the non-protein amino acid nicotianamine (NA), a key component in the iron physiology of plants. The root system of the recessive mutantfer is unable to induce any of the characteristic responses to iron deficiency and iron uptake is thus completely blocked. We present a characterization of the double mutant, showing that thefer gene is epistatic over thechln gene and thus very likely to be one of the major genetic elements controlling iron physiology in tomato. In order to gain access to these two genes at the molecular level, both mutants were precisely mapped onto the high density RFLP map of tomato. Thechln gene is located on chromosome 1 and thefer gene is on chromosome 6 of tomato. Using this high-resolution map, a chromosome walk has been started to isolate thefer gene by map-based cloning. The isolation of thefer gene will provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms of iron uptake control in plants.     

肾素－血管紧张素系统──应激激素反应系统

各种急性与慢性应激时,循环血中及脑、心血管、肾腺等组织中血管紧张素Ⅱ（ＡⅡ）显著增多;人剧烈运动后血浆ＡⅡ与皮质醇一样均剧烈增加,在慢性应激性高血压动物循环及组织中,ＡⅡ含量持续地增高。还发现高浓度ＡⅡ对肾上腺糖皮质激素的分泌有直接的刺激作用,而组织ＡⅡ增多又受肾上腺素能β受体的激发。根据近年来的系列工作,并结合文献,我们认为ＡⅡ是一种重要的应激激素;肾素－血管紧张素系统是一个应激激素反应系统;它与经典的应激激素反应系统,下丘脑－垂体－肾上腺皮质系统及交感－肾上腺髓质系统也存在着密切的关系。

Structure and analysis of phospholipase D gene from Ricinus communis L

Phospholipase D (PLD; EC 3.1.4.4) has been proposed to play a pivotal role in various cellular processes, but molecular understanding of this enzyme is rather limited. This report describes the nucleotide sequence, structure, and genomic organization of a PLD gene from castor bean (Ricinus communis L. cv. Hale). The PLD gene was isolated from a castor bean genomic library using the PLD cDNA as a hybridization probe. Sequence comparison with the PLD cDNA revealed that the PLD gene consisted of four exons and three introns, one of which interrupts the 5-untranslated region. Southern blot analysis indicated that the cloned PLD gene was present as a single-copy gene, and yet there were other PLD or PLD-related sequences in the castor bean genome.     

水稻高脯氨酸愈伤组织变异体盐胁迫下氨基酸和蛋白质组分的变化

游离氨基酸组分分析表明,水稻培养细胞中谷氨酸和丙氨酸含量很高,占氨基酸总量的４０％。高脯氨酸愈伤组织变异体总游离氨基酸含量比原型高４５．５％,其中脯氨酸增加最多,其次是雨氨酸和谷氨酸。当ＮａＣｌ１００ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ处理时变异体和原型的总氨基酸都增加,而变异体的增量约为原型增量的３倍。蛋白水解氨基酸组分中变异体和原型各氨基酸的相对含量无大差异。蛋白质双向电泳表明,高脯氨酸变异体的蛋白组分发生变化,明显比原型多４个蛋白点。在ＮａＣｌ１００ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ处理下原型亦产生５３．３ｋＤ蛋白,变异体中该蛋白的含量变得更多。盐胁迫下变异体和原型的蛋白质组分变化的差异十分显著,主要表现在蛋白质等电点的变化不同。

精子介导鱼类基因转移和聚合酶链反应检测技术

金鱼精子与美洲大绵ｗｅｉ的抗冻蛋白基因一起保温３０分钟后,再与卵子受精,共获得１４５尾成鱼和若干胚胎。从胚胎和成鱼中提取ＤＮＡ经聚合酶链反应（ＰＣＲ法）扩增和Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ ｂｌｏｔ分子杂交表明,外源的抗冻蛋白基因进入了部分受体鱼的染色体组内。测定了４５尾一年龄实验鱼中,有１２尾显示出明确的杂交带,阳性率为２６％。
