水平回转对水稻幼苗叶细胞的影响

对在模拟微重力装置上回转１４ 天的水稻幼苗叶细胞进行了亚显微形态、电子探针和细胞酶化学研究。发现叶细胞质膜上Ｃａ２＋ －ＡＴＰ酶活性消失,膜内钙总量上升、膜外钙总量下降,细胞骨架变得疏松,细胞壁变薄并凹凸不平。叶绿体的基粒和线粒体的内嵴亦有部分变化。其变化机制,首先是细胞质膜上Ｃａ２＋ －ＡＴＰ酶活性消失,膜上钙泵停止工作,跨膜钙浓度差减小,膜内钙浓度上升,微管、微丝聚合受阻,细胞骨架疏松,分泌泡移动失去导向,从而导致细胞壁变薄等状态

双价外壳蛋白基因植物表达载体的构建及马铃薯转基因植株的鉴定

在克隆了马铃薯Ｘ病毒（ＰＶＸ）、马铃薯Ｙ 病毒（ＰＶＹ）和马铃薯卷叶病毒（ＰＬＲＶ）的外壳蛋白基因的基础上,构建同时包含ＰＶＸ和ＰＶＹ 与ＰＶＹ 和ＰＬＲＶ 两个外壳蛋白基因植物表达框架的表达载体,通过农杆菌（Ａｇｒｏｂａｃｔｅｒｉｕｍ ｔｕｍｅｆａｃｉｅｎｓ）介导转化烟草（Ｎｉｃｏｔｉａｎａｔａｂａｃｕｍ ）和生产上常用的几个马铃薯（Ｓｏｌａｎｕｍ ｔｕｂｅｒｏｓｕｍ ）优良品种：“Ｆａｖｏｒｉｔａ”、“虎头”、“克４”。经ＰＣＲ检测证明外源基因已整合到植物的染色体上,得到批量转基因植株。在转ＰＶＸ＋ＰＶＹ 外壳蛋白基因的烟草上接种ＰＶＸ （５ μｇ／ｍ Ｌ）、ＰＶＹ（２０ μｇ／ｍ Ｌ）病毒,得到有一定抗性的植株     

花粉高尔基囊泡与牛脑微管的体外结合

把从榛木（Ｃｏｒｙｌｕｓａｖｅｌｌａｎａ Ｌ．）花粉中分离得到的高尔基囊泡与经高度纯化并聚合好的牛脑微管进行体外组合,然后于１．５ ｍ ｏｌ／Ｌ的蔗糖层上进行超离心,对其沉淀物进行ＳＤＳ－聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳和电镜负染。结果表明,花粉高尔基囊泡可以结合到牛脑微管上,证明植物花粉的高尔基囊泡与动物细胞的某些细胞器一样,也与细胞骨架的主要组成之一——微管具有结构上的紧密联系。花粉高尔基囊泡与牛脑微管的体外结合能力,受１０ ｍ ｍ ｏｌ／ＬＡＴＰ和０．５ ｍ ｏｌ／ＬＫＣｌ的影响,但不受５ ｍ ｍ ｏｌ／Ｌ ＡＭＰ－ＰＮＰ的影响,说明两者结合可能是通过高尔基囊泡表面与ＡＴＰ有关的某种外周膜蛋白来完成的。

A simple and efficient method for DNA extraction from grapevine cultivars andVitis species

A quick, simple, and reliable method for the extraction of DNA from grapevine species, hybrids, andAmpelopsis brevipedunculata (Vitaceae) has been developed. This method, based on that of Doyle and Doyle (1990), is a CTBA-based extraction procedure modified by the use of NaCl to remove polysaccharides and PVP to eliminate polyphenols during DNA purification. The method has also been used successfully for extraction of total DNA from other fruit species such as apple (Malus domestica), apricot (Prunus armeniaca), cherry (Prunus avium), peach (Prunus persica), plum (Prunus domestica), and raspberry (Rubus idaeus). DNA yield from this procedure is high (up to 1 mg/g of leaf tissue). DNA is completely digestible with restriction endonucleases and amplifiable in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), indicating freedom from common contaminating compounds.     

Genetic and phylogenetic analyses of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I variants from Melanesians with an without spastic myelopathy

Molecular variants of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) have been isolated recently from lifelong residents of remote Melanesian populations, including a Solomon Islander with tropical spastic paraparesis/HTLV-I-associated myelopathy (TSP/HAM) or HTLV-I myeloneuropathy. To clarify the genetic heterogeneity and molecular epidemiology of disease-associated strains of HTLV-I, we enzymatically amplified, then directly sequenced representative regions of thegag, pol, env, andpX genes of HTLV-I strains from Melanesians with and without TSP/HAM, and aligned and compared these sequences with those of HTLV-I strains from patients with TSP/HAM or adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma and from asymptomatic carriers from widely separated and culturally disparate populations. Overall, the HTLV-I variant from the Solomon Islander with TSP/HAM, like HTLV-I strains from asymptomatically infected Melanesians, diverged by approx 7% from cosmopolitan HTLV-I strain. No disease-specific viral sequences were found. Gene phylogenies, as determined by the unweighted pair-goup method of assortment and by the maximum parsimony method, indicated that the Melanesian and cosmopolitan strains of HTLV-I have evolved along separate geographically dependent lineages, one comprised of HTLV-I strains from Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands, and the other composed of virus strains from Japan, India, the Caribbean, Polynesia, the Americas, and Africa. The total absence of nonhuman primates in Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands precludes any possibility that the Melanesian HTLV-I strains have evolved recently from the simian homolog of HTLV-I.
