Cytological and molecular characterization of a chromosome interchange and addition lines in Cadet involving chromosome 5B of wheat and 6Ag of Lophopyrum ponticum

Efforts to transfer wheat curl mite (Eriophyes tulipae Keifer) resistance from Lophopyrum ponticum 10X (Podb.) Love to bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) have resulted in the production of a number of cytogenetic stocks, including an addition line of 6Ag, a ditelo addition line, and a wheat-Lophopyrum translocation line. Characterization of these lines with C-banding, in situ hybridization with a Lophopyrum species-specific repetitive DNA probe (pLeUCD2), and Southern blotting with pLeUCD2 and a 5S ribosomal DNA probe (pScT7) confirmed that the distal portion of the short arm of 6Ag was translocated onto the distal portion of 5BS (5BL. 5BS-6AgS). It was also determined that the ditelo addition was an acrocentric chromosome of 6AgS.     

几种药物对HL-60细胞的诱导分化作用及其过程中蛋白激酶C活力分布的变化

本文就HHT、RA、WB_(852)对HL-60细胞的诱导分化作用及此过程中PKC活力在细胞胞浆部分及膜溶脱部分的变化进行研究。结果表明,在适当的用药浓度下,从细胞生长抑制情况、形态学观察及NBT还原能力测定判断,三种药物对HL-60细胞有明显的诱导分化作用。PKC活力分布变化的研究结果表明,用药组细胞胞浆部分酶活力有不同程度的下降,尤在用药早期(约6h以前)下降显著;而膜部分PKC活力则表现上升、或下降,或活力相差不大的结果。暗示在信息传递过程中起核心作用的PKC对不同的胞外刺激可能采取不同的应答方式。PKC的作用可能主要发生在信息传递的早期。

The responses of peripheral and central mechanosensory lateral line units of weakly electric fish to moving objects

Mechanosensory lateral line afferents of weakly electric fish (Eigenmannia) responded to an object which moved parallel to the long axis of the fish with phases of increased spike activity separated by phases of below spontaneous activity. Responses increased with object speed but finally may show saturation. At increasingly greater distances the responses decayed as a power function of distance. For different object velocities the exponents (mean±SD) describing this response falloff were -0.71±0.4 (20 cm/s object velocity) and-1.9±1.25 (10 cm/s). Opposite directions of object movement may cause an inversion of the main features of the response histograms. In terms of peak spike rate or total number of spikes elicited, however, primary lateral line afferents were not directionally sensitive.Central (midbrain) lateral line units of weakly electric fish (Apteronotus) showed a jittery response if an object moved by. In midbrain mechanosensory lateral line, ampullary, and tuberous units the response to a rostral-tocaudal object movement may be different from that elicited by a caudal-to-rostral object motion. Central units of Apteronotus may receive input from two or more sensory modalities. Units may be lateral line-tuberous or lateral line-ampullary. Multimodal lateral line units were OR units, i.e., the units were reliably driven by a unimodal stimulus of either modality. The receptive fields of central units demonstrate a weak somatotopic organization of lateral line input: anterior body areas project to rostral midbrain, posterior body areas project to caudal midbrain.Abbreviation EOD electric organ discharge     

High-efficiency and multilocus targeted integration in CHO cells using CRISPR-mediated donor nicking and DNA repair inhibitors

Efforts to leverage clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (CRISPR/Cas9) for targeted genomic modifications in mammalian cells are limited by low efficiencies and heterogeneous outcomes. To aid method optimization, we developed an all-in-one reporter system, including a novel superfolder orange fluorescent protein (sfOrange), to simultaneously quantify gene disruption, site-specific integration (SSI), and random integration (RI). SSI strategies that utilize different donor plasmid formats and Cas9 nuclease variants were evaluated for targeting accuracy and efficiency in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Double-cut and double-nick donor formats significantly improved targeting accuracy by 2.3–8.3-fold and 19–22-fold, respectively, compared to standard circular donors. Notably, Cas9-mediated donor linearization was associated with increased RI events, whereas donor nicking minimized RI without sacrificing SSI efficiency and avoided low-fidelity outcomes. A screen of 10 molecules that modulate the major mammalian DNA repair pathways identified two inhibitors that further enhance targeting accuracy and efficiency to achieve SSI in 25% of transfected cells without selection. The optimized methods integrated transgene expression cassettes with 96% efficiency at a single locus and with 53%–55% efficiency at two loci simultaneously in selected clones. The CRISPR-based tools and methods developed here could inform the use of CRISPR/Cas9 in mammalian cell lines, accelerate mammalian cell line engineering, and support advanced recombinant protein production applications.

远交系小鼠胚胎干细胞系的建立及嵌合鼠的获得

ＥＳ细胞（ＥｍｂｒｙｏｎｉｃＳｔｅｍＣｅｌｌｓ）是来源于小鼠早期胚胎的多潜能干细胞,它可以在体外大量培养。并以单细胞的形式注射到早期胚胎里,发育为嵌合体。到目前为止,通常使用的１２９小鼠品系是来源于近交系（ｉｎｂｒｅｄ）小鼠的胚胎．与之相比,远交系小鼠应当具有较强的生命力和抗病能力。曾有人报道过建成了远交系小鼠胚胎干细胞系,但是尚没有见到获得嵌合鼠的报道。有人甚至认为：由于不同品系小鼠所具有的遗传背景不同,有的小鼠不能建成ＥＳ细胞系。最近,本实验室在这方面做了有益的探索,成功地建成了远交系小鼠胚胎干细胞系,并在这里报导首例用远交系小鼠胚胎干细胞系培育成功嵌合体小鼠。采用源于Ｓｗｉｓｓ小鼠远交群的昆明（ＫＭ）品系小鼠囊胚建成了三个小鼠胚胎干细胞系（ＫＥ１．ＫＥ２．ＫＥ５）。核型正常率均达到７０％以上。自第八代起分批冻存,复苏后,培养至第１２代,消化成单细胞,通过囊胚显微注射,将其注射到６１５品系小鼠胚胎。在幸存的幼鼠中获得了一只来源于ＫＥ１细胞的嵌合鼠（Ｔａｂｌｅ１）．其毛色表现为受体鼠（６１５）的白色中嵌合有供体鼠（ＫＭ）的黑褐色（ＰｌａｔｅＩ－Ａ）．嵌合鼠与受体鼠的杂交后代鼠中仍然出现了受体鼠的毛色类型（     

Chromosome translocations in wild populations of tetraploid emmer wheat in Israel and Turkey

Translocation frequencies (as compared to the standard chromosome arrangement typified by that in Chinese Spring) in 9 or more genotypes from each of 15 populations of Triticum dicoccoides in Israel were determined. Data also were obtained from 2 genotypes of the southernmost population (Jaba). A single population from Turkey was also investigated. There were 119 genotypes with translocations in the sample of 171 genotypes investigated (70%). The frequency of translocations in different populations varied from 0.27 to 1.00, and all populations had 1 or more genotypes with one or more translocations. Some populations such as Qazrin appeared to be homogeneous for translocations, but most populations were heterogeneous. A sample of 17 genotypes from 12 of the populations were crossed with the Langdon D-genome disomic substitutions to determine the identity of the chromosomes involved in the translocations. There were nine genotypes with translocations and with the exception of a 2A/2B translocation, none of them involved the same chromosomes. The B-genome chromosomes were involved in translocations more frequently than the A-genome chromosomes. Translocation frequencies (TF) of the various populations were correlated with environmental variables, primarily with water availability and humidity, and possibly also with soil type. In general, TF was higher in peripheral populations in the ecologically heterogeneous frontiers of species distribution than in the central populations located in the catchment area of the upper Jordan valley.
