表达HSV－2 gD基因的重组痘苗病毒保护小鼠对抗致死量HSV病霉攻击

利用ＰＣＲ方法对单纯疱疹病毒Ⅱ型糖蛋白Ｄ（ＨＳＶ－２ｇＤ）基因进行了修饰,在其５＇端删去约５００ｂｐ的非编码区,仅保留ＡＴＧ上游７个ｂｐ。将修饰后的ＨＳＶ－２ｇＤ基因插入到带有痘苗病毒天坛株ＴＫ基因区段的痘苗表达质粒ｐＪＳＡ１１７５,置于痘苗病毒Ｐ７．５ｋ早／晚期启动子控制下。将此重组质粒用脂质体Ｌｉｐｏｆｅｃｔｉｎ方法转染已受野型ＴＫ￣＋痘苗病毒天坛株感染的ＴＫ￣－１４３细胞,通过同源重组机制和标志基因ＬａｃＺ产物的蓝斑显色作用,以及ＢｕｄＲ试剂对ＴＫ表型的选择压力,筛选出整合有ＨＳＶ－２ｇＤ基因的重组痘苗病毒。Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｍ杂交表明,ＨＳＶ－２ｇＤ基因已正确地插入痘苗病毒ＴＫ基因区内;间接免疫荧光检测显示,ＨＳＶ－２ｇＤ蛋白已得到有效表达,且主要分布于细胞膜。重组病毒免疫家兔可产生明显的抗ＨＳＶ－２ｇＤ中和抗体。用重组病毒免疫小鼠,３周后可使９４％（１７／１８）的小鼠对抗ＨＳＶ－２的致死量攻击,表明重组病毒具有明显的免疫保护作用。     

人胎胸腺细胞的异质性荧光及其与T淋巴细胞分化阶段关系的形态学研究

以７６９０－Ｘｕ荧光染色法结合ＷｕＴ３、ＷｕＴ４、ＷｕＴ８致敏红细胞花环实验观察经胸腺细胞分层液分离所得高密度亚群和低密度亚群人胎胸腺细胞的异质性荧光及其膜分化抗原ＣＤ３、ＣＤ４、ＣＤ８的表达。结果表明：不同胎龄胎儿胸腺细胞悬液呈现相似形态和相似分布特征的８种异质性荧光的细胞,其中,墨黑核细胞和桔红核细胞分布于两密度亚群,表型为ＣＤ３－ＣＤ４－ＣＤ８－;少数深蓝核和蓝核细胞分布于低密度亚群．表型为ＣＤ３＋,属成熟的胸腺细胞;大多数深蓝核和蓝核细胞、灰蓝核细胞、灰黄核细胞及部分淡桔黄核细胞分布于高密度亚群,表型为ＣＤ３－、ＣＤ４＋、ＣＤ８＋,为处于中间发育阶段的胸腺细胞。推测这些细胞胞核由深蓝、蓝、灰蓝、灰黄到淡桔黄的荧光光谱的偏移可能与中间发育阶段所发生的生物及理化变化有关。     

鳗鱼肌肉的氨基酸及营养价值

通过对优质食用鱼类—鳗鱼肌肉的氨基酸进行测定证实,鳗鱼较之其它鱼类是一种营养价值更高、滋味更鲜美的鱼类。并且,根据结果氨基酸组成比例,可为鳗鱼的人工饲养等方面的研究提供理论依据。     

用中性红标记酵母原生质体初探

用２％蜗牛酶处理酵母细胞６０分钟,啤酒酵母Ｙ２９的原生质体形成率为９０％,再生率为９．５％;糖化酵母ＩＢ的原生质体形成率为８６％,再生率为１２％。用５００ｐｐｍ中性红染液对Ｙ２９菌株的整细胞和原生质体染色１５分钟,细胞的着色率为８４％,存活率为１２％,而原生质体的着色率为７５％,再生率为６．４％,经染色后的原生质体体积缩小,在交变电场中排队所需的场强电降低。     

野生紫斑牡丹和四川牡丹种子萌发特性及与其致濒的关系

野生牡丹种子一般较小,而且不同产地之间形状、大小差异较大。其萌发特性与栽培牡丹相比也有较大差异：萌发期长达半年以上,且萌发温度在１０～１５℃为宜,超过２０℃则明显不利于生根及上胚轴生长。四个不同分布地的四川牡丹种子萌发率较一致,均在６０～７７％之间。三个不同产地的紫斑牡丹种子萌发率则相差甚远,分布于甘肃文县的萌发率达７６％,而分布于陕西略阳和湖北神农架的萌发率则分别只有１２％和４．４％,出苗率则更低。本文认为紫斑牡丹的种子特性是其在自然界处于濒危状态的重要原因之一。     

Phylogenetic relationships among eutherian orders estimated from inferred sequences of mitochondrial proteins: Instability of a tree based on a single gene

The phylogenetic relationships among Primates (human), Artiodactyla (cow), Cetacea (whale), Carnivora (seal), and Rodentia (mouse and rat) were estimated from the inferred amino acid sequences of the mitochondrial genomes using Marsupialia (opossum), Aves (chicken), and Amphibia (Xenopus) as an outgroup. The overall evidence of the maximum likelihood analysis suggests that Rodentia is an outgroup to the other four eutherian orders and that Cetacea and Artiodactyla form a clade with Carnivora as a sister taxon irrespective of the assumed model for amino acid substitutions. Although there remains an uncertainty concerning the relation among Artiodactyla, Cetacea, and Carnivora, the existence of a clade formed by these three orders and the outgroup status of Rodentia to the other eutherian orders seems to be firmly established. However, analyses of individual genes do not necessarily conform to this conclusion, and some of the genes reject the putatively correct tree with nearly 5% significance. Although this discrepancy can be due to convergent or parallel evolution in the specific genes, it was pointed out that, even without a particular reason, such a discrepancy can occur in 5% of the cases if the branching among the orders in question occurred within a short period. Due to uncertainty about the assumed model underlying the phylogenetic inference, this can occur even more frequently. This demonstrates the importance of analyzing enough sequences to avoid the danger of concluding an erroneous tree.     

Capsid assembly and involved function analysis of twelve core protein mutants of duck hepatitis B virus.

The roles of different regions of the duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) core protein on viral capsid assembly and related functions were examined. Twelve deletion and insertion mutations which covered 80% of the DHBV C open reading frame were constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli. The N-terminal region (amino acids 3 to 66) of DHBV core protein was important for its tertiary structure and function in E. coli. The expressed core mutants without this region apparently inhibited E. coli growth. The results of transmission electron microscopy of E. coli thin sections, capsid agarose gel, and sucrose gradient sedimentation demonstrated that a few DHBV core mutants with insertion in the N terminus and deletion in the C terminus retained the ability to form core-like particles in E. coli. However, other mutations in most of N-terminal and central regions strongly inhibited the self-assembly ability of DHBV core protein in E. coli. In addition, the mutant with a C-terminal region deletion (amino acids 181 to 228) lost most of the nucleic acid-binding activity of the DHBV core protein.

祁连山地区植被特征及其分布规律

分析和讨论了祁连山地区主要植被类型及其分布特征。祁连山地区随着青藏高原的强烈隆升表现为整体抬升,植被具有明显的生态地理边缘效应特征和高原地带性规律。该区植被虽然受到四周的较大影响,但各类高寒植被占有绝对优势,表现出与青藏高原植被整体明显的相似性和广泛的一致性。另一方面,本区植被也有其特殊性及与高原面存在一些差异。因此,建议把祁连山地区做为青藏高原植被区的次一级独立单元
