抗原捕获聚合酶链式反应（AC－PCR）直接分型检测单纯疱疹病毒

用抗单纯疱疹病毒（ＨＳＶ）型共同性ｇＣ和ｇＤ羊克隆抗体（ＭｃＡｂ）,包被即Ｅｐｐｅｎｄｏｒｆ管,捕捉ＨＳＶ,同时加入３个引物：一个是ＨＳＶ─１／ＨＳＶ─２型共同性上游引物,另两个分别是ＨＳＶ─１和ＨＳＶ─２型特异性下游引物。借此建立了能直接分型检测ＨＳＶ的抗原捕获聚合酶链式反应（ＡＣ─ＰＣＲ）。ＨＳＶ─１的扩增产物为４７７ｂｐ,ＨＳＶ─２的为３９９ｂｐ两型病毒经ＡＣ─ＰＣＲ扩增后产生分子量不同的ＤＮＡ片段,致使ＡＣ─ＰＣＲ能直接分型检测ＨＳＶ。ＨＳＶ─１和ＨＳＶ─２扩增产物的克隆和序列分析表明,本方法特异性好。用本法检测Ｂａｌｂ／ｃ幼鼠中枢神经系统ＨＳＶ感染的脑标本,进一步证实本方法不仅敏感、特异,而且分型准确。

肾综合征出血热人体组织中病毒包涵体的性质及意义的进一步研究

应用免疫组化、原位分子杂交、电镜及免疫电镜等方法进一步对肾综合征出血热人体尸检组织中病毒包涵体（ＩＢ）的抗原、核酸性质和超微结构特点作了进一步观察。结果,在３９例中的２０例尸检病例组织中显示出病毒核蛋白抗原和血凝素抗抗原阳性的ＩＢ,其中包括１６例陕西尸检病例组织中的６例休克期和１例多尿期病例,１７例上海病例中的３例休克期和９例少尿期病例及３例江西病例中的１例休克期病例。ＩＢ主要分布在呼吸道和肺泡、肾远曲小管和集合管、胃肠道、腺垂体、扁桃体、胰腺、前列腺等组织的粘膜上皮和腺上皮细胞及肝细胞和睾丸生精上皮细胞胞浆中,阳性细胞形态基本正常。应用原位分子杂交,可在该组细胞小同时检测到病毒ＲＮＡ,多为胞浆内弥漫阳性,仅少数组织中显示出病毒ＲＮＡ阳性ＩＢ结构。电镜观察阳性组织细胞中出现由大量微丝微管及颗粒样结构组成的ＩＢ结构,其小的病毒颗粒状结构、内质网及纤维丝状结构呈病毒抗原阳性,上述结构位于高尔基体区。结果说明该病毒有感染上皮细胞的特性,对其宿主细胞的致细胞病变作用是极其温和的,且多表现在亚细胞水平。ＩＢ可能是病毒过量表达抗原的堆积或病毒复制部位,而微丝微管结构可能参与病毒的感染过程。

猪瘟病毒反义基因在培养细胞上的效应研究——反义基因对猪瘟病毒的抑制作用

应用免疫荧光抗体技术检测了整合有猪瘟病毒反义基因的PK-15细胞克隆对猪瘟病毒的抑制效应。结果表明,五个不同的反义基因片段对猪瘟病毒的抑制效率存在很大差异,其中A片段的抑制效率最高(94％～98％),B片段次之(58％～76％),C片段再次(～64％),D片段和E片段未见明显的抑制效应。抑制效率的差异可能与反义基因片段的位置、长短以及反义RNA表达质粒载体的差异有关。     

Molecular modelling of theDolichos biflorus seed lectin and its specific interactions with carbohydrates: α-D-N-acetyl-galactosamine,Forssman disaccharide and blood group A trisaccharide

The three-dimensional structure ofDolichos biflorus seed lectin has been constructed using five legume lectins for which high resolution crystal structures were available. The validity of the resulting model has been thoroughly investigated. Final structure optimization was conducted for the lectin complexed with GalNAc, providing thereby the first three-dimensional structure of lectin/GalNAc complex. The role of theN-acetyl group was clearly evidenced by the occurrence of a strong hydrogen bond between the protein and the carbonyl oxygen of the carbohydrate and by hydrophobic interaction between the methyl group and aromatic amino acids. Since the lectin specificity is maximum for the Forssman disaccharide GalNAc(1–3)GalNAc-O-Me and the blood group A trisaccharide GalNAc(1–3)[Fuc(1–2)]Gal-O-Me, the complexes with these oligosaccharides have been also modelled.     

A comparison of the carbohydrate binding properties of twoDolichos biflorus lectins

The carbohydrate binding properties of theDolichos biflorus seed lectin and DB58, a vegetative tissue lectin from this plant, were compared using two types of solid phase assays. Both lectins bind to hog blood group A + H substance covalently coupled to Sepharose 4B and this binding can be inhibited with free blood group A + H substance. However, the binding of the seed lectin is inhibited byD-GalNAc whereas DB58 binding was not inhbited by any monosaccharide tested, thus suggesting that its carbohydrate combining site may be more extensive than that of the seed lectin. The activities of these two lectins also differ from one another in ability to recognize blood group A + H substance adsorbed on to plastic and in the effects of salt and urea on their carbohydrate binding activities. Neither lectin showed glycosidase activity with p-nitrophenyl -D-GalNAc or p-nitrophenyl -D-GalNAc.     

葱兰黄化病病原类菌原体的研究

葱兰为石蒜科(Amaryllidaceae)草本植物,是一种在我国各地普遍栽培的多年生观赏花卉.葱兰黄化病是1992年在杭州发现的一种新病害,该病对葱兰的生长和观赏价值有严重影响.罹病株(丛)最初表现为深红色斑点,逐渐扩大为鲜红色条斑或斑块并转为亮黄色,最后整株叶片大部分转为鲜艳的黄色,呈现典型的系统侵染.发病1—2月后整株(丛)地上部分枯死.发病一般始于早春(3月上旬),春末夏初有一个发病高峰期;秋末有另一个发病期,但病状较轻;感染株有恢复现象,即在下一个生长季能从地下部分重新生长出叶片,但病株叶片明显细小,有丛簇现象,病株开花少且花期短.作者从1992年春起,对该病害进行了病原分离、生物学测定和病组织超薄切片电镜检查,发现该病害可能与类菌原体有关,现将研究结果报告如下.1 材料和方法1.1 样品感病植株分别于1992年4月采自浙江农业大学校园和1992年6月采自杭州花圃,用盆栽保存于防虫温室中,同时采取健株作为对照.1.2 用病株分离病原和接种     

Trypsin inhibitor activity in mature tobacco and tomato plants is mainly induced locally in response to insect attack,wounding and virus infection

Wounding of plants by insects is often mimicked in the laboratory by mechanical means such as cutting or crushing, and has not been compared directly with other forms of biotic stress such as virus infection. To compare the response of plants to these types of biotic and abiotic stress, trypsin inhibitor (TI) activity induced locally and systemically in mature tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) plants was followed for 12 days. In tobacco, cutting, crushing and insect feeding all induced comparable levels of TI activity of approx. 5 nmol·(mg leaf protein)^?1 in wounded leaves, while tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infection of tobacco induced 10-fold lower amounts in the infected leaves. In tomato, feeding by insects also led to the induction of a level of TI activity of 5 nmol·(mg leaf protein)^?1. In contrast, both cutting and crushing of tomato leaves induced 10-fold higher amounts. These data show that biotic stress, in the form of insect feeding and TMV infection, and abiotic stress, in the form of wounding, have different effects on local levels of induced TI activity in mature tobacco and tomato plants. Irrespective of the type of wounding, in neither tobacco nor tomato could systemic induction of TI activity be observed in nearby unwounded leaves, which suggests that systemic induction of TI activity in mature tobacco and tomato plants is different from systemic TI induction in seedlings. Wounding of tobacco leaves, however, did increase the responsiveness to wounding elsewhere in the plant, as measured by an increased induction of TI activity.
