南京地区繁缕和小繁缕群体的研究

繁缕(Stellaria media)和小繁缕(S.apetala)是两个形态相似的近缘种,有人把后者作为前者的亚种或变种来处理。本文通过对南京地区不同生境的三个自然群体和三个人工控制栽培群体的取样,以群体为单位,分别测算了叶、萼片、雄蕊、花瓣、果实和种子的8个数量性状的变异,绘制了多角形图;对花粉粒和种子进行了扫描;还通过花蕾套袋试验对种子活力作了检查。结果发现繁缕和小繁缕都是近亲繁殖植物,在形态上区别明显,对生态环境的要求基本相同,但小繁缕似更能耐受人为的践踏和刈割。     

Reactivity of anti-human milk fat globule antibodies with synthetic peptides

The nucleotide sequence of partial cDNA clones coding for the core protein of a human polymorphic epithelial mucin has recently been obtained, this mucin consists of a highly conserved 60 bp tandem repeat and the amino acids commonly found are PDTRPAPGSTAPPAHGVTSA. We synthesized three peptides, 1) P1.24 containing the 20 amino acids and four amino acids (PDTR) of the adjoining repeat; 2) P1.15 consisting of the first fifteen (PDTRPAPGSTAPPAH) and P1.09 the second nine amino acids (GVTSAPDTR) of peptide P1.24. The reactivities of the synthetic peptides with mAb known to react with breast cancer (BC1, BC2, BC3, HMFG-1, 3E1.2, and RCC-1) were studied. The synthetic peptide, P1.24, corresponding to the antigenic sequence predicted from the tandem repeat reacted with antibodies BC1, BC2, and BC3 (known to react with human milk mucin and mucin expressed in breast cancer) and the antibody HMFG-1 which was used to select the cDNA clones. In addition, the epitopes recognized by BC1, BC2, and BC3 appear to be in the same region of the molecule represented by their reactions with the nine amino acids in peptide P1.09 (GVTSAPDTR). By contrast, other antibodies such as 3E1.2 which reacts only weakly with components of human milk, and RCC-1 that detects a low Mr component (95 kDa) in breast cancer, had no specific reaction with the synthetic peptides, indicating that their epitopes are distinct from those of BC1, BC2, BC3, and HMFG-1. Inasmuch as the antibodies HMFG-1, BC1, BC2, and BC3 react with the fully processed milk mucin, it is likely that some of the peptide is exposed, even in the fully glycosylated molecule. Identification of the different epitopes could lead to the development of "second generation" mAb with enhanced specificity for breast carcinoma using the appropriate synthetic peptides as immunogens.

外源脂肪酸及胆固醇对莱氏衣原体膜糖脂含量的影响

 <正> 单葡萄糖甘油二酯(MGDG)和双葡萄糖甘油二酯(DGDG)是莱氏衣原体膜上主要的极性脂。糖脂的生理功能过去很少研究,至今仍不清楚。近年来实验结果表明,MGDG在膜上容易形成六角形Ⅱ结构,而DGDG则形成脂双层结构。六角形Ⅱ结构的出现与生物膜的生理功能的关系是当前瞩目的研究内容。本文首次研究了外源脂肪酸和胆固酵对莱氏衣原体AIH089菌株膜上糖脂含量的影响。     

反义寡核苷酸片段可抑制鲫鱼视网膜电压依赖性钾离子通道的表达

爪蟾卵母细胞经注射鲫鱼视网总ＲＮＡ后,可表达大量电压依赖性钾离子通道。在此基础上,我们进一步发现,一个特定序列的寡核苷酸能专一地抑制该通道的表达。由于我们设计与合成的该片段与果蝇、小鼠中已克隆的钾通道中编码Ｎ端的一个多肽的ｍＲＮＡ完全互补,因此推测：鲫鱼视网膜中的Ｋ这个区域与其它物种的Ｋ通道有高度同源性,这为克隆该基因和研究它的功能提供了重要资料。     

人的恶性高热和猪的应激综合征

人的恶性高热和猪的应激综合征是临床症状极其相似、遗传方式不同的两种代谢障碍性疾病,它们直接威胁着人类的生命安全和畜牧业生产。随着医学和基因工程技术的发展,有关专家对这两种病的认识在９０年代初取得了突破性进展。本文在回溯这两种疾病的历史背景的基础上,将...     

Auxin levels and auxin binding protein availability inrolB transformedBeta vulgaris cells

The final biological effect of auxin depends both on free auxin levels and on auxin perception capacity.RolB transformedBeta vulgaris L. hairy roots provide a system for studying both factors. Highly purified plasma membrane fractions were prepared with aqueous two-phase partitioning. Individual hairy root clones were assessed for the binding activities of plasma membrane-bound auxin binding proteins and for their free intracellular indole-3-acetic acid levels. The presence of a high affinity auxin binding protein with a dissociation constant of 9.07 x 10^?7 M was detected in the plasma membrane fractions isolated from non-transformed seedling roots and the six clones ofrolB transformed hairy roots. However, the levels of specific IAA binding considerably varied among different hairy root clones and between transformed and non-transformed roots. The levels of the detectable polypeptide in immunoblotting with an antibody against maize 22-kD auxin binding protein subunit were in good agreement to the levels that were detected in auxin binding assays. Differences in the indole-3-acetic acid levels were found between transformed and non-transformed roots and also between different transformed hairy root clones. A negative correlation was observed between free intracellular IAA levels and its specific binding to the plasma membrane-bound auxin binding proteins. A latency study indicated that the binding site for auxin may be located on the exterior face of the plasma membrane

The apple rootstock,A106(Malus sieboldii),had 17 bivalents in pollen mother cells at meiotic metaphase 1,and 17 chromosomes in a haploid pollen cell.Karyotypes were prepared from root-tip cells with 2n=34 chromosomes,Seven out of 82 karyotypes(8.5%) showed one pari of satellites at the end of the short arm of chromosome 3.C-bands were shown on 6 pairs of chromosomes 2,4,6,8,14,and 16 near the telomeric regions of short arms.Probes for three ripening-related genes from Malus x domestica:endopolygalacturonase(EPG,0.6kb),ACC oxidase(1.2kb),and ACC synthase(2kb)were hybridized in situ to metaphase chromosomes of A106.Hybridization sites for the EPG gene were observed on the long arm of chromosome 14 in 15 out of 16 replicate spreads and proximal to the centromere of chromosomes 6 and 11.For the ACC oxidase gene,hylridization sites were observed in the telomeric region of the short arm of chromosomes 5 and 11 in 87% and 81% of 16 spreads respectively,proxiaml to the centromere of chromosome 1 in 81% of the spreads,and on the long arm of chromosome 13 in 50% of the spreads. Physical mapping of three fruit ripening genes in an apple rootstock A106.Twenty five spreads were studied for the ACC synthase gene and hybridization sites were observed in the telomeric region of the short arm of chromosome 12 in 96% of the spreads.chromosomes 9 and 10 in 76% of the spreads,and chromosome 17 in 56% of the spreads.     

Chromosomal localization of ribosomal DNA sequences in an apple rootstock using a digoxygenin detection system

A 6kb rDNA probe comprising the 18S coding plus spacer sequences has been hybridized to the metaphase chromosomes of apple rootstock cultivar MM106 demonstrating the localization of ribosomal gene arrays in the vicinity of the telomeric regions of the short arms of chromosomes 6 and 14.The in situ results using digoxygenin labelling coupled to an alkaline phosphatase immunoassay were confirmed by silver staining for NORs and nucleoli.This study demonstrates the feasibility of molecular cytogenetic analysis of very small chromosomes(1.0-2.7μm） of apple.
