Modified nucleotides in Bacillus subtilis tRNA(Trp) hyperexpressed in Escherichia coli.

In the present study, modified nucleotides in the B. subtilis tRNA(Trp) cloned and hyperexpressed in E. coli have been identified by TLC and HPLC analyses. The modification patterns of the two isoacceptors of cloned B. subtilis tRNA(Trp) have been compared with those of native tRNA(Trp) from B. subtilis and from E. coli. The modifications of the A73 mutant of B. subtilis tRNA(Trp), which is inactive toward its cognate TrpRS, were also investigated. The results indicate the formation of the modified nucleotides S4U8, Gm18, D20, Cm32, i6A/ms2i6A37, T54 and psi 55 on cloned B. subtilis tRNA(Trp). This modification pattern resembles the pattern of E. coli tRNA(Trp), except that m7G is missing from the cloned tRNA(Trp), probably on account of its short extra loop. In contrast, the pattern departs substantially from that of native B. subtilis tRNA(Trp). Therefore, the cloned B. subtilis tRNA(Trp) has taken on largely the modification pattern of E. coli tRNA(Trp) despite the 26% sequence difference between the two species of tRNA, gaining in particular the Cm32 and Gm18 modifications from the E. coli host. A notable difference between the isoacceptors of the cloned tRNA(Trp) was seen in the extent of modification of A37, which occurred as either the hypomodified i6A or the hypermodified ms2i6A form. Surprisingly, base substitution of guanosine by adenosine at position 73 of the cloned tRNA(Trp) has led to the abolition of the 2'-O-methylation modification of the remote G18 residue.

岭南垛基果林湿地土壤碳组分特征

岭南垛基果林湿地是珠三角地区典型的湿地类型之一,其对土壤碳汇的贡献值得关注。为探讨果林种植类型对土壤有机碳的影响,对广州垛基果林湿地内种植黄皮(Clausenalansium)(HP),龙眼(Dimocarpuslongan)(LY)、杨桃(Averrhoa carambola)(YT),龙眼和黄皮间种(LH),杨桃、龙眼和黄皮间种(YLH)共5种种植类型下的表层(0～20 cm)土壤碳组分进行研究。结果表明,不同的植被类型对土壤的总有机碳(SOC)、可溶性有机碳(DOC)、微生物生物量碳(MBC)、易氧化有机碳(ROC)、惰性碳(NLC)含量都有影响,LY的SOC含量最高(22.6 g/kg),显著高于YLH (P<0.05),且NLC含量显著高于LH和YLH (P<0.05)。NLC含量与土壤养分呈正相关,与土壤容重呈负相关。YT的MBC含量显著高于LY、HP、LH (P<0.05),且MBC/SOC显著高于HP、LY(P<0.05)。YLH模式下,土壤DOC含量和DOC/SOC显著高于其他植被类型(P<0.05)。LH的ROC/SOC显著高于HP和L...     

Blockage of MDM2-mediated p53 ubiquitination by yuanhuacine restrains the carcinogenesis of prostate carcinoma cells by suppressing LncRNA LINC00665

Prostate cancer (PCa) is a challenging issue for men's health worldwide due to its uncontrolled proliferation and high metastatic potential. Increasing evidence has supported plant extracts and natural plant derivatives as promising antitumor therapy with less toxic side effects. Yuanhuacine is an active component isolated from Daphne genkwa and can effectively suppress the tumorigenesis of several cancers. However, its role in PCa remains unclear. In this study, yuanhuacine dose-dependently inhibited the proliferation and induced apoptosis of PCa cells. Moreover, yuanhuacine also restrained the invasion and migration of PCa cells. Mechanically, yuanhuacine decreased the ubiquitination and degradation of p53 protein, and ultimately increased p53 levels, which was regulated by inhibiting the phosphorylation and total protein levels of mouse double minute 2 (MDM2). Moreover, elevation of MDM2 reversed the suppressive efficacy of yuanhuacine in PCa cell viability, invasion, and migration. The network pharmacologic and bioinformatics analysis confirmed that MDM2 might be a common target of D. genkwa and LINC00665. Furthermore, yuanhuacine inhibited LINC00665 expression. Upregulation of LINC00665 reversed yuanhuacine-mediated inhibition in MDM2 protein expression and suppressed p53 levels by enhancing its ubiquitination in yuanhuacine-treated cells. Importantly, the inhibitory effects of yuanhuacine on cell viability and metastatic potential were offset after LINC00665 elevation. Together, the current findings highlight that yuanhuacine may possess tumor-suppressive efficacy by inhibiting LINC00665-mediated MDM2/p53 ubiquitination signaling. Therefore, this study indicates that yuanhuacine may be a promising candidate for the treatment of PCa.

EGF对大鼠卵巢颗粒细胞增殖与分化影响的研究

许多研究发现,表皮生长因子(EGF)对生殖功能有重要的调节作用。本文用体外细胞培养的方法,研究了EGF对大鼠卵巢颗粒细胞增殖与分化的影响及其作用方式。结果如下:EGF可以明显抑制颗粒细胞DNA的合成,但促进孕酮的生成,后者是因为EGF能显著提高细胞内3β-羟甾脱氨酶(3β-HSD)的活性。放射受体分析表明,颗粒细胞上存在EGF的特异性受体,其K_d为1.83±0.3×10~(-8)mol/L,B_(max)为1.75±0.29×10~4个位点/细胞。卵巢免疫组化结果未发现颗粒细胞有EGF样免疫染色,而卵泡膜、黄体及间质内等均有阳性染色。以上结果提示,EGF可能通过旁分泌机制作用于颗粒细胞的EGF受体,从而调节细胞的生长和性激素的分泌,这对于颗粒细胞的成熟及卵泡的发育有着重要意义。     

酿酒酵母INO80染色质重塑复合物调控基因表达的研究进展

表观遗传调控是真核生物基因表达精细调控的重要组成部分,主要包括DNA甲基化、组蛋白修饰和染色质重塑。其中,染色质重塑因子可影响组蛋白修饰酶和转录因子与特定位点的结合,在基因表达调控中占有重要地位。INO80复合物是进化上保守的染色质重塑复合物,能利用ATP水解获得的能量促进核小体的滑动和驱逐。INO80复合物除了在DNA复制、修复中发挥重要功能外,还通过改变DNA可及性调控酿酒酵母的基因表达。本文综述了染色质重塑复合物的分类及组成,重点介绍了酿酒酵母多亚基复合物INO80在基因表达调控中的重要功能,包括驱逐RNA聚合酶Ⅱ、响应信号转导途径和改变基因表达水平等,并着重总结了其在酿酒酵母环境胁迫响应机理中的研究进展。深入研究INO80染色质重塑复合物的功能,可为理解真核生物精细代谢调控的机制,并进一步开发基于染色质重塑等表观调控水平的微生物代谢工程和合成生物学改造策略,提高菌株的环境胁迫耐受性和发酵性能提供基础。
