枯草杆菌蛋白酶E的156和165位突变

应用定点突变方法,在M222A突变的枯草杆菌蛋白酶E基因上进行E156S和V165I定点突变. 将突变基因插入大肠杆菌-枯草杆菌穿梭质粒pBE-2中,在碱性和中性蛋白酶缺陷型的枯草杆菌DB104中进行表达,得到突变种(M222A,E156S)和(M222A,E156S,V165I)蛋白酶E. 性质测定表明,E156S突变使蛋白酶比活力增加90%,并不影响酶的热稳定性和抗氧化性. 而V165I突变使蛋白酶比活力降低.     

柯萨奇B组病毒的心肌毒力和炎性心肌病的遗传学基础

柯萨奇Ｂ组病毒（ＣＶＢ）是人类炎性心肌病的病原因子,通过对ＣＶＢ基因组感染性ｃＤＮＡ的研究,ＣＶ在小鼠体毒力表型的遗传学逐渐被了解,ＣＶＢ３及ＣＶＢ４的研究表明,非翻译区及衣壳蛋白区内的某些位点可影响病毒毒力表型。     

Studying dynamic process of photosensitization by ESR method

By kinetic methods, functional relation of TAN radical, produced in the process of TEMPONE trapping O2, vs. time during photosensitization was established. Accordingly relative rate constants of generating all kinds of active intermediates through types I and II mechanism of photosensitization can be calculated. Using the formula and experimental results, the relative rate constants of generating O2, O2 and PS2 of three kinds of perylenequinone photosensitizer: HA, HB and CP in DMF-H20 and DMSO-H2O system were calculated, and then the structure-activity relationship of perylenequinone photosensitizer and the relation between photosensitivity and solvent was studied.     

New red flower germplasm lines of cotton selected from hybrid of Gossypium hirsutum × G. bickii

By means of dropping GA3 (50 ppm) and NAA (40 ppm) on the hybrid boll-embryo culture in vitro, one F1 plant of G. hirsutum G. bickii was obtained; when F1 branches were grafted on upland cotton and then back-crossed with upland cotton under short-day and cooler-night condition, some BC1 seeds could be harvested. The characteristic segregation was very violent in early generation. Through 3 times of back-crossing and selecting, ten stable hybrid lines with the character of both male parent (viz. red petal-purple spot and strong fibre) and female par-ent (plant type, earliness, white fibre, lint length, etc. ) were established. These lines were assigned as HB red flow-er lines (HBRL). Transference of character of G. bickii to upland cotton was proved to be successful for the first time. These new germplasms may play an important role in both the genetic research and new cotton variety breeding.     

S－美芬妥英羟化代谢多态性的分子机制研究进展

人群中存在着Ｓ－美芬妥英羟化代谢多态性。从人肝微粒体已分离出Ｓ－美芬妥英羟化酶。在基因克隆研究中已分离出与该羟化酶活性有关的Ｐ４５０ｃＤＮＡ,属Ｐ４５０２Ｃ１９。最近报道,人肝中Ｐ４５０２Ｃ１９的含量和催活Ｓ－美芬妥英羟化活性密切相关,其弱代谢者主要由于ＣＹＰ２Ｃ１９的外显子５单碱基对（Ｇ→Ａ）的变异,使核苷酸序列错位而产生无功能的Ｐ４５０蛋白的结果。     

对于增加固氮的基因,农业遗传学获得优惠权

农业遗传学公司将使从俄勒冈州立大学得到特许的重组体DNA法商品化,它能改善与大豆共生的固氮菌的效率。重组体DNA法使控制氢摄人的基因(HUP基因)引人无此基因的固氮菌成为可能。HUP基因编码一种氢化酶,这种酶能使该菌再循环一部分作为固氮副产物而产生的氢。     

成功地分离出酶

高纯度的细胞色素B酶和腺苷三磷酸已被东京大学的研究组成功地分离出来。细胞色素能帮助大肠杆菌中的细菌呼吸,用微酸的表面活性剂可用来回收细胞色素,而一般的中性表面活性剂会破坏细胞色素的活性成份,通过离心分离可使之纯化。     

交联琼脂糖珠固定化蛋白酶在纯化牛肺Kunitz抑制剂中的应用

本文介绍了珠状交联琼脂糖及以此作为载体,经氯代环氧丙烷活化后与蛋白酶(胰蛋白酶或糜蛋白酶)结合,制成固定化蛋白酶亲和吸附剂,进而用以亲和层析牛肺提取液中的Kunitz抑制剂的方法。纯化出的抑制剂在SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳上呈现单一条带,与参照物Trasytol(商品Kunitz抑制剂)具有相对应的电泳迁移率,其分子量也相符。纯化产品每毫克蛋白的抑制活力相当于16 000胰蛋白酶BAEE单位。纯化效果为90倍,收率约85％。     

P物质对蟾蜍离体心脏活动的影响

P物质(substance P,SP)既是一个局部作用激素、又是一个循环激素,在体内可对许多器官发挥作用,对心血管活动的调节具有重要影响,在这方面以对血管活动的影响研究较多,对心脏活动的影响报道较少,对其作用机制尚不十分清楚。本工作试图在蟾蜍离体心脏标本上观察SP对心脏活动的直接效应,并初步探讨其作用机制。
