A rapid method for determination of Proteus vulgaris with a piezoelectric quartz crystal sensor coated with a thin liquid film

A rapid method for microorganism detection using a piezoelectric quartz crystal sensor (PQC) coated with a thin liquid culture medium film was developed and applied to detect the cell number of Proteus vulgaris. This method employed the viscosity and density response of PQC and utilized the coagulation of gelatine medium solution in which the microorganisms had grown to determine the microorganism indirectly. Three time points (TT₁, DT, TT₂) were obtained from the coagulation curve and were found to be in good linear relationship with the logarithm of the initial number of P. vulgaris in the range 1·3 × 10²−1·3 × 10⁵ cells/ml. The detection was rapid and accurate because the coagulation of the thin liquid culture medium film was quick and the time points in the response curve were sharp and so were easy to determine accurately. The detection time was less than 4 h and only a micro sample was needed. A 5 h preincubation was needed before detection. Some experimental conditions are discussed in detail.     

慢性缺氧大鼠心肌肌浆网功能及其钙泵基因表达的动态变化

将实验大鼠放置模拟５０００ｍ海拔高度低压舱内１、２和４周。结果表明：与对照组比较,１,２和４周组动物的心肌重量分别增加１５％,１８％和５７％;心肌ＳＲＣａ２＋摄取分别降低３３％,３８％和５３％;心肌ＳＲＣａ２＋ＡＴＰａｓｅ活性分别降低５４％,６０％和７４％;钙泵ｍＲＮＡ含量（基因表达分别降低１４％,４６％和６８％。这些结果提示,缺氧导致的ＳＲ钙泵功能降低可能是心肌功能受损的重要生化基础之一,而钙泵数目减少可能是钙泵功能降低的分子生物学机制。

Evidence for FUS6 as a component of the nuclear-localized COP9 complex in Arabidopsis.

The pleiotropic CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC (COP), DEETIOLATED (DET), and FUSCA (FUS) loci are essential regulatory genes involved in the light control of seedling developmental patterns in Arabidopsis. Although COP1, DET1, COP9, and FUS6 (also called COP11) have been cloned, their biochemical activities and interactions remain elusive. We have recently suggested that multiple pleiotropic COP, DET, and FUS genes may encode subunits of a large regulatory complex. In this study, we generated specific antibodies against Arabidopsis FUS6 and show that accumulation of both COP9 and FUS6 is coordinated in the pleiotropic cop, det, and fus mutant backgrounds and in wild-type plants throughout development. Both COP9 and FUS6 cofractionated into identical high molecular mass fractions in an analytical gel filtration assay, and neither was found in its monomeric form. Moreover, antibodies raised against either COP9 or FUS6 selectively coimmunoprecipitated both proteins. We have also developed an Arabidopsis protoplast immunolocalization assay and demonstrated that the COP9 complex is localized in the nucleus and that its nuclear localization is not affected by light conditions or tissue types. The integrated genetic and biochemical results strongly support the conclusion that both COP9 and FUS6 are components of the nuclear-localized COP9 complex. Therefore, we have provided the strongest evidence for the conclusion that at least some of the pleiotropic COP, DET, and FUS loci act in the same signaling pathway.     

The Mouse Spam1 maps to proximal Chromosome 6 and is a candidate for the sperm dysfunction in Rb(6.16)24Lub and Rb(6.15)lAld heterozygotes

We have determined the chromosomal localization of the murine gene encoding the 68-kDa sperm adhesion molecule 1, Spam1 or Ph-20. Using two independent approaches, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and interspecific backcross analysis, we show that Spam1 maps to proximal mouse Chromosome (Chr) 6. This map position is within the conserved linkage group corresponding to human Chr 7q, where the human homolog, SPAM 1, has been shown to map previously. Genetic mapping shows the gene to be very closely linked to Met, one of the most proximal loci on MMU 6. It thus places the gene near the centromere and the junction of the Rb(6.16)24Lub and Rb(6.15)1Ald translocations. The essential role of the Spam1 sperm antigen in mouse sperm-egg interactions and its gene location provide strong support for its candidacy as the gene involved in the dysfunction of mouse sperm bearing the Rb(6.16)24Lub or Rb(6.15)1Ald translocation.

粘虫颗粒体病毒的增效因子提高杆状病毒的感染

一株美洲粘虫GV(增效品系)在东方粘虫幼虫上进行增殖,所获粘虫GV(PuGv-Ps>对东方粘虫NPV(PsNPV)、棉铃虫NPV(HaNPV)和黄地老虎NPV(AsNPV)进行增效试验。 实验结果证明PuGV-Ps对三种NPV都有明显的增效作用, 其中以对PsNPV为最强,增效率达55%一85%;对HaNPV为30%-80%;而对AsNPV只有15%-35%。用凝胶过滤技术从PuGV-Ps中分离增效因子PusF-Ps,其对PsNPV和A,NPV的增效作用亦同样明显,250μg的PuSF-Ps可以提高PsNPV的感染能力达80%。经ScPhadcf-150柱(1.6X 90)和使用四种标准蛋白(细胞色素c、胃蛋白酶、牛血清清蛋白和乳酸脱氢酶)测得PuSF-Ps的分子量为160 000左右。     

缺氧心肌收缩蛋白Ca~（2＋），Mg~（2＋）－ATP酶活性研究

将大鼠置于模拟海拔８ｋｍ高度的低压舱内缺氧１周及缺氧后空气中常氧恢复１周和２周,观察了左右心室功能、心肌肥厚、心肌收缩蛋白含量及其Ｃａ￣（２＋）,Ｍｇ￣（２＋）－ＡＴＰ酶活性的动态变化。结果表明,８ｋｍ缺氧１周后肺动脉压及右心室收缩压明显升高,左右心室±ｄｐ／ｄｔｍａｘ及收缩指数明显降低。左右心室肌明显肥厚,心肌收缩蛋白Ｃａ￣（２＋）,Ｍｇ￣（２＋）－ＡＴＰ酶活性明显减低。缺氧后常氧恢复１和２周后,左右心室功能逐渐恢复达到或接近正常水平,心肌肥厚逐渐减轻或恢复正常,心肌收缩蛋白Ｃａ￣（２＋）,Ｍｇ￣（２＋）－ＡＴＰ酶活性也逐渐升高。因此说明：心肌收缩蛋白Ｃａ￣（２＋）,Ｍｇ￣（２＋）－ＡＴＰ酶活性的改变是心功能变化的重要生化基础之一,它的减低是缺氧心肌对环境的代偿适应。
