球囊菌胁迫中华蜜蜂幼虫肠道过程中病原的转录组学研究

【目的】本研究利用RNA-seq技术对球囊菌胁迫的中华蜜蜂(中蜂)幼虫肠道进行深度测序,经趋势分析得到差异表达基因(DEGs)的显著表达模式,进而对胁迫过程中的球囊菌进行转录组学分析。【方法】利用Illumina HiSeq 2500平台对球囊菌胁迫的中蜂幼虫肠道进行深度测序,并利用相关软件进行了深入分析。最后,通过RT-qPCR对RNA-seq数据进行了验证。【结果】本研究共得到球囊菌的41133932条高质量clean reads。22865个DEGs共聚类为8个基因表达模式,其中,16769个DEGs聚类为2个显著上调趋势与2个显著下调趋势。GO富集分析结果显示,显著上调与显著下调趋势中的DEGs分别富集于40与37个GO term,基因富集数最多的为细胞进程(2486 unigenes)。KEGG代谢通路(pathway)富集分析结果显示,显著上调与显著下调趋势中的DEGs分别富集于119和112个pathway,基因富集数最多的分别是氨基酸生物合成(127 unigenes)与核糖体(98 unigenes)。进一步分析表明球囊菌在胁迫中蜂幼虫肠道的过程中通过提高物质合成促进其增殖,而宿主通过抑制球囊菌的蛋白合成抵御病原入侵。富集在MAPK信号通路的11个DEGs的表达水平随着胁迫时间的延长而逐渐下降,推测中蜂幼虫通过抑制该通路而阻遏球囊菌增殖。【结论】本研究不仅为揭示白垩病过程中的球囊菌-中蜂幼虫互作提供了重要信息,也为阐明不同抗性蜂种的球囊菌抗性差异奠定了基础。     

CD3ε和PMA对fas基因转录调控作用的研究

研究了ＣＤ３ε和ＰＭＡ对细胞凋亡基因ｆａｓ的转录调控作用．根据已知的人ｆａｓ基因５＇上游序列设计引物,用ＰＣＲ法从人胸腺细胞基因组ＤＮＡ中扩增出ｆａｓ５＇上游长为４４６ｂｐ的启动子片段．将此片段定向克隆到以虫荧光素酶为报告基因的真核细胞表达载体ｐＸＰ２中．经限制性内切酶酶切鉴定及序列测定分析表明此重组表达质粒ＤＮＡ的结构和序列正确．用此质粒（ｐＸＰ２－ｆａｓｕｐ）瞬时转染人ＪｕｒｋａｔＴ淋巴细胞,分析报告基因的表达水平．结果表明ｆａｓ基因上游－５０６到－６０的区域有弱启动子活性,约是阴性对照的１．５倍．抗ＣＤ３ε抗体和ＰＭＡ处理均可增强ｆａｓ启动子的活性,促进报告基因的表达,其虫荧光素酶活性分别是未经处理的ｐＸＰ２－ｆａｓｕｐ转染细胞的１．７倍和３．３倍,但二者没有协同作用．ＰＫＣ的抑制剂ｓｔａｕｒｏｓｐｏｒｉｎｅ和ＰＴＫ的抑制剂ｈｅｒｂｉｍｙｃｉｎＡ可抑制ＰＭＡ诱导的ｆａｓ基因转录,使虫荧光素酶基因的表达降至未用ＰＭＡ处理的水平．但ＰＴＫ的另一种抑制剂ｇｅｎｉｓｔｅｉｎ可与ＰＭＡ发挥协同作用,上调ｆａｓ基因的转录,使虫荧光素酶活性增加到５倍．这些结果为阐明ＣＤ３ε及ＰＭＡ介导Ｔ淋巴细胞激活和凋亡的分子机制

Total chemical synthesis,assembly of human torque teno virus genome

Torque teno virus(TTV)is a nonenveloped virus containing a single-stranded,circular DNA genome of approximately 3.8kb.We completely synthesized the 3808 nucleotides of the TTV(SANBAN isolate)genome,which contains a hairpin structure and a GC-rich region.More than 100 overlapping oligonucleotides were chemically synthesized and assembled by polymerise chain assembly reaction(PCA),and the synthesis was completed with splicing by overlap extension(SOEing).This study establishes the methodological basis of the chemical synthesis of a viral genome for use as a live attenuated vaccine or gene therapy vector.

伯乐树种子不同条件贮藏下前后生理比较

对3个不同地区（浙江省遂昌县、福建省浦城县和浙江江山市）的伯乐树种子形态指标进行了测定。并分别设置3种贮藏方式（A为室内湿沙环境下贮藏;B为低温（4℃）湿沙下贮藏;C为低温（4℃）封口袋中贮藏）,对贮藏前后种子的发芽率、发芽势、含水量等生理指标进行了比较研究。结果表明,浦城县地区较另外二个地区的种子狭长而扁平,且质量较小。经130d的贮藏后,3个地区的种子内淀粉含量显著下降（P〈0．05）,含水量、蛋白酶活性、淀粉酶活性、蛋白含量和可溶性糖含量则均显著升高（P〈0．05）,从而使休眠得以解除。贮藏后的发芽率和发芽势显著提高（P〈0．05）,以湿沙低温下的发芽率和发芽势为最高。

Classification of subcellular location by comparative proteomic analysis of native and density-shifted lysosomes

One approach to the functional characterization of the lysosome lies in the use of proteomic methods to identify proteins in subcellular fractions enriched for this organelle. However, distinguishing between true lysosomal residents and proteins from other cofractionating organelles is challenging. To this end, we implemented a quantitative mass spectrometry approach based on the selective decrease in the buoyant density of liver lysosomes that occurs when animals are treated with Triton-WR1339. Liver lysosome-enriched preparations from control and treated rats were fractionated by isopycnic sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Tryptic peptides derived from gradient fractions were reacted with isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation eight-plex labeling reagents and analyzed by two-dimensional liquid chromatography matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight MS. Reporter ion intensities were used to generate relative protein distribution profiles across both types of gradients. A distribution index was calculated for each identified protein and used to determine a probability of lysosomal residence by quadratic discriminant analysis. This analysis suggests that several proteins assigned to the lysosome in other proteomics studies are not true lysosomal residents. Conversely, results support lysosomal residency for other proteins that are either not or only tentatively assigned to this location. The density shift for two proteins, Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase and ATP-binding cassette subfamily B (MDR/TAP) member 6, was corroborated by quantitative Western blotting. Additional balance sheet analyses on differential centrifugation fractions revealed that Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase is predominantly cytosolic with a secondary lysosomal localization whereas ATP-binding cassette subfamily B (MDR/TAP) member 6 is predominantly lysosomal. These results establish a quantitative mass spectrometric/subcellular fractionation approach for identification of lysosomal proteins and underscore the necessity of balance sheet analysis for localization studies.

白背飞虱对水稻抗虫品种N22的适应性研究

在室内连续用感虫品种TN1和抗虫品种N22单管饲养白背飞虱(Sogatella furcifera)种群,研究它对抗虫水稻品种的适应性及其体内保护酶的变化,结果表明,白背飞虱在感虫品种TN1和抗虫品种N22品种上饲养1至2代,其卵历期、若虫期和全世代历期均无明显差异,从感虫品种TN1转移到抗虫品种N22上饲养1代,白背飞虱的若虫存活率、雌成虫寿命、体重、蜜露量、产卵量和内禀增长率等均低于在抗虫品种上连续饲养2代,而后者又低于在感虫品种上饲养的指标,白背飞虱在抗虫品种上连续饲养2代后,体内保护酶中超氧化物岐化酶(SOD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性逐渐接近于感虫品种上连续饲养的结果,说明白背飞虱从感虫品种转到抗虫品种在开始时并不适应,经过连续繁殖多代后白背飞虱逐渐适应,最后导致抗虫品种的抗性丧失。
