免疫荧光法检测原核和真核细胞中表达的轮状病毒外壳蛋白VP4

目的：用免疫荧光法快速检测原核和真核细胞中表达的轮状病毒（RV）外壳蛋白VP4。方法：以抗VP4的抗体为一抗、FITC标记的羊抗豚鼠IgG为二抗,用免疫荧光方法检测在大肠杆菌BL21（DE3）中重组表达的同源RVVP4;检测SA11或Wa株RV感染MA104细胞后不同时间段病毒VP4的合成及其在感染细胞中的分布情况。结果：用免疫荧光法可直接检测到原核细胞中表达的外源蛋白,也可检测到病毒蛋白在真核细胞中的分布情况。结论：免疫荧光法可特异、方便、快速地检测RV VP4在原核和真核细胞中的表达;来源于RV TB—Chen株的VP4抗体可特异性识别同源病毒VP4,交叉识别SA11或Wa株的VP4。     

甲状旁腺激素和转铁蛋白N端半分子融合蛋白在毕赤酵母中的表达

用重叠PCR技术将PTH（parathyroid hormone, 甲状旁腺激素）基因与TFN（transferrin N_terminal half_molecule, 转铁蛋白N端半分子）基因在体外融合,融合基因克隆至真核表达载体pPIC9中,转化毕赤酵母GS115。转化子经甲醇诱导后,融合蛋白得到了表达并分泌到发酵上清液中。经 SP Sepharose F F阳离子交换层析、Phenyl Sepharose Fast Flow疏水层析纯化获得了纯度大于95％的PTH_TFN样品。Western blot分析及腺苷酸环化酶实验证明融合蛋白中的PTH具有与抗PTH抗体结合能力及刺激腺苷酸环化酶的活性,铁饱和实验证明融合蛋白中的TFN和单独的TFN具有相同铁结合能力。因而TFN可望作为PTH的天然运输载体。     

保卫细胞钙信号的研究进展

钙(Ca2+)是多种信号途径的第二信使。Ca2+成像技术的成熟和发展为显示保卫细胞胞 质Ca2+浓度（［Ca2+］cyt）的分布及外界刺激引起［Ca2+］cyt的变化模式提供了很好的研究工具,关于细胞内外Ca2+库释放Ca2+的机制也有了较清楚的认识。拟南芥突变体的研究使Ca2+ 信号上游分子及其排序更加明确,［Ca2+］cyt增加下游的磷酸化和去磷酸化 过程也是气孔关闭必需的生理过程。     

延迟交配对山楂叶螨繁殖的影响

为了探索雌螨延迟交配对整个种群的负面效应, 采用叶碟饲养法, 在室内条件下研究了延迟交配对山楂叶螨Tetranychus viennensis Zacher繁殖及种群增长的影响。结果表明: 雌螨延迟交配主要影响寿命、产卵量, 进而影响种群增长率; 随着雌螨交配时间的延迟, 影响的程度逐渐加剧。交配延迟达到或超过7 d, 雌螨的寿命比对照延长20.17%, 产卵量比对照下降26.74%, 但对后代的孵化率、存活率无明显影响。对生命表参数的分析结果表明, 雌螨交配延迟达到或超过7 d, 会导致净生殖率显著下降、平均世代周期历期显著延长, 而内禀增长率则在交配延迟3 d时显著降低。未经交配的雌螨只能营孤雌生殖, 寿命延长了31.14%, 产卵量减少了30.08%。营孤雌生殖的雌螨可以通过与其后代回交而实现两性生殖。结果提示延迟交配会导致山楂叶螨的繁殖力降低。     

Impacts of ISCO Persulfate,Peroxide and Permanganate Oxidants on Soils: Soil Oxidant Demand and Soil Properties

The consumption of in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) oxidant by soil oxidizable matter (OM), termed the soil oxidant demand (SOD), is an essential factor when designing treatments for successful remediation at an ISCO site. This study aims to assess the impact of different oxidants on SOD and the soil itself, using the Taguchi experimental design. Five oxidation systems, including persulfate (PS), hydrogen peroxide (HP), permanganate (PM), Fe²⁺ activated PS and Fe²⁺ activated HP, and four factors including oxidant concentration, activator concentration, reaction time, and pH were investigated. The results of the Taguchi analysis in this study show that oxidant concentration had the greatest effect on the SOD. Other factors also affected the SOD and the optimum conditions for achieving a lower SOD were determined using the Taguchi design method. Additionally, original and oxidized soils were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope equipped with an X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer to determine the surface morphology and chemical composition of the samples. Variations in soil organic carbon levels and total soil bacterial counts were recorded and the speciation of soil minerals (Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn) was analyzed.
