籼稻232蜡质基因转录起始位点的鉴定

Ｎｏｒｔｈｅｒｎｂｌｏｔ杂交分析和蜡质基因ｃＤＮＡ的序列分析表明水稻蜡质基因的转录本可能延伸到翻译起始密码子（ＡＴＧ）上游１２ｋｂ处。据此设计了２１Ｎｔ的寡核苷酸引物,并以籼稻２３２胚乳ＲＮＡ为模板,以引物延伸法确定籼稻２３２蜡质基因的转录起始点,籼稻蜡质基因的转录起始旁邻顺序ＣＴＣＡＣＣＡ与高等植物基因的转录起始点一致顺序ＣＴＣＡＴＣＡ仅相差１个碱基。通过顺序比较,对东乡野生稻蜡质基因中的转录起始位点的位置,以及对此两稻种中ＴＡＴＡ盒的可能顺序进行了讨论。

Effects of substrate limitation on product distribution and H2/CO2 ratio inKlebsiella pneumoniae during anaerobic fermentation of glycerol

Product formation during anaerobic degradation of glycerol byKlebsiella pneumoniae DSM 2026, under glycerol limitation and glycerol excess in continugius cultures, has been investigated. Major and minor products and by-products as well as gaseous products were measured. The results indicated a positive correlation between specific glycerol uptake and most product formation rates under glycerol limitation. The production of 1,3-propanediol, lactate, formate, acetate, succinate and the by-products of anaerobic glycerol degradation byK. pneumoniae, acetoin and 2,3-butanediol, was favoured by glycerol excess, while hydrogen generation and ethanol formation were best under glycerol limitation. It was also found that under glycerol limitation the rate of hydrogen evolution was generally higher than the CO₂ production rate while under excess glycerol the reverse was true. Hence, on the basis of the ratio of the specific rates of evolution of H₂ and CO₂ (q _{H 2}/q _{CO 2}), it is possible to infer the existence of glycerol limitation. On the basis of the carbon and available electron balances, which are independent of metabolic pathways, the data are consistent. The NADH₂ balance, which took into consideration the pathways of product formation, was also tested to check the validity of the assumed pathways and to check critically the consistency of the data. Good balances were also obtained.[     

A surface mutant (G82R) of a human α-glutathione S-transferase shows decreased thermal stability and a new mode of molecular association in the crystal

A chimeric enzyme (GST121) of the human α-glutathione S-transferases GST1-1 and GST2-2, which has improved catalytic efficiency and thermostability from its wild-type parent proteins, has been crystallized in a space group that is isomorphous with that reported for crystals of GST1-1. However, a single-site (G82R) mutant of GST121, which exhibits a significant reduction both in vitro and in vivo in protein thermostability, forms crystals that are not isomorphous with GST1-1. The mutant protein crystallizes in space group P2₁2₁2₁, with cell dimensions a = 49.5, b = 92.9, c = 115.9 Å, and one dimer per asymmetric unit. Preliminary crystallographic results show that a mutation of the surface residue Gly 82 from a neutral to a charged residue causes new salt bridges to be formed among the GST dimers, suggesting that the G82R mutant might aggregate more readily than does GST121 in solution resulting in a change of its solution properties. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

The persistence of Golgi complexes during cell division in an insect epidermis

The Golgi complexes of animal cells are said to become vesicular during cell division in order to allow the equal partitioning of organelles between daughter cells (Warren, 1985). However, in the epidermis of fifth stage larval Calpodes ethlius (Lepidoptera, Hesperi idae), cutical deposition is concurrent with cell division in preparation for pupation. We therefore looked at the Golgi complexes of these epidermal cells to see if they maintained their interphase form to allow them to continue to function during cell division. Dividing cells were recognized by changes in the nucleus and nuclear envelope, the form of the cell cortex and cell surface, and by the disposition of microtubules. Epidermal Golgi complexes consist of 3-5 cisternae capped by endoplasmic reticulum with transfer vesicles and rings of GC beads next to the cis face, and secretory vesicles on the trans face. Golgi complexes of dividing cells are structurally indistinguishable from those in interphase, their beads are in the rings characteristic of active GCs, and cuticle continues in uninterrupted lamellae above the apical microvilli. The observations suggest that Golgi complexes in dividing insect cells differ from those of most vertebrates by remaining functional through mitosis.

津白_3侏儒小鼠垂体前叶生长激素细胞的免疫细胞化学研究

津白_３侏儒小鼠（ｄＷ~ｔ）是１９８２年从津白_３纯系小鼠（ＴＡ_３）中发现,进而培育成侏的变种。本实验应用免疫细胞化学技术,对ｄｗ￣ｔ小鼠垂体前叶生长激素（ＧＨ）细胞进行观察,并根据体视学原理进行定量分析,以探讨ｄｗ~ｔ小鼠是否存在垂体发育缺陷。实验结果显示,ｄｗ~ｔ小鼠ＧＨ细胞的体积密度（Ｖｖ）和数密度（Ｎｖ）值均低于正常对照组,Ｐ＜０．０１～０．００１。表明ｄｗ~ｔ小鼠由于垂体前叶ＧＨ细胞数量减少,导致ＧＨ分泌不足,从而形成侏儒。
