硫素对不同大豆品种成熟期AM真菌群落多样性的影响

研究硫素对不同大豆品种成熟期丛枝菌根（arbuscular mycorrhizal,AM）真菌群落多样性的影响,探索有利于提高3个特定大豆品种根围土壤和根系AM真菌多样性的最佳施硫量,为提高大豆产量和改善大豆品质提供理论依据。试验采用盆栽,选用黑农44（HN44）、黑农48（HN48）、黑农37（HN37）3个大豆品种作为试验材料,设4个硫素处理S1（对照）,S2（0.02g/kg）,S3（0.04g/kg）和S4（0.06g/kg）。采用PCR-DGGE技术分析3个大豆品种根围土壤和根系中AM真菌群落多样性。结果表明：在S2处理下HN37和HN44根围土壤和根系AM真菌多样性最高,而在S3处理下HN48根围土壤和根系AM真菌多样性最高;DGGE图谱中各样品优势种群变化显著,球囊霉属Glomus和柄囊霉属Funneliformis真菌为3个大豆品种根围土壤和根系中AM真菌的优势菌群。由此可见,硫素对不同大豆品种根围土壤和根系AM真菌群落多样性有显著影响,适量施硫能够提高大豆根围土壤和根系中AM真菌的多样性,不施或过高施硫反而抑制AM真菌的多样性。     

Genome analysis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa by field inversion gel electrophoresis

Abstract The genome of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was analysed by digestion with rare-cutting restriction endonucleases and subsequent field inversion gel electrophoresis (FIGE). P. aeruginosa strain PAO and the 17 IATS strains were investigated. Each strain displayed a unique pattern of restriction fragments. Digestion with Dra I and Ssp I yielded, respectively 7–11 and 2–5 fragments of more than 130 kb in size, indicating the non-random occurrence of AT-rich sequences in the P. aeruginosa genome. The genome size of P. aeruginosa PAO was estimated to be (2.2 ± 0.3) × 10⁶ bp. The applications of DNA fingerprinting for gene cloning, construction of a physical chromosome map, and epidemiological studies, are discussed.

Application of free-flow electrophoresis/2-dimentional gel electrophoresis for fractionation and characterization of native proteome of Pseudomonas putida KT2440

Free Flow Electrophoresis (FFE) is a liquid-based isoelectric focusing method. Unlike conventional in-gel fractionation of proteins, FFE can resolve proteins in their native forms and fractionation of subcellular compartments of the cell is also possible. To test the efficacy of the FFE method, the native cytosol proteome of a bacterium, Pseudomonas putida KT2440 was fractionated by FFE and the spectrum of protein elutes was characterized in association with 2-dimentional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). Major native proteins of P. putida KT2440 were eluted in the range of pH 4.8 approximately 6.0 in FFE, whereas the denatured proteome of P. putida KT2440 was widely distributed in the rage of pH 4 approximately 10 in the 2-DE analysis. In addition, one of the three FFE major fractions, which was eluted at pH 5.0, was further analyzed using 2-DE/MS-MS. Then, the pH range of identified proteins eluted in 2-DE/MS-MS was 4.72 approximately 5.89, indicating that observed pi values of native cytosolic proteomes in FFE were narrower than those of denatured cytosolic proteome. These results suggest that FFE fractionation and 2-DE/MS analysis may be useful tools for characterization of native proteomes of P. putida KT2440 and comparative analysis between denatured and native proteomes.     

Enzymatic properties of two beta-glucosidases from Ceriporiopsis subvermispora produced in biopulping conditions

AIMS: Ceriporiopsis subvermispora produces endoglucanase and beta-glucosidase when cultivated on cellulose or wood, but biodegradation of cellulose during biopulping by C. subvermispora is low even after long periods. To resolve this discrepancy, we grew C. subvermispora on Pinus taeda wood chips and purified the major beta-glucosidases it produced. Kinetic parameters were determined to clear if this fungus produces enzymes capable of yielding assimilable glucose from wood. METHODS AND RESULTS: Ceriporiopsis subvermispora was grown on P. taeda wood chips under solid-state fermentation. After 30 days, the crude extract obtained from enzyme extraction with sodium acetate buffer 50 mmol l(-1), pH 5.4, was filtrated in membranes with a molecular mass exclusion limit of 100 kDa. Enzyme purification was carried out using successively Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration. The retained fraction attained 76% of beta-glucosidase activity with 3.7-fold purification. Two beta-glucosidases were detected with molecular mass of 110 and 53 kDa. We have performed a characterization of the enzymatic properties of the beta-glucosidase of 110 kDa. The optimum pH and temperature were 3.5 and 60 degrees C, respectively. The K(m) and V(max) values were respectively 3.29 mmol l(-1) and 0.113 micromol min(-1) for the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl-beta-glucopyranoside (pNPG) and 2.63 mmol l(-1) and 0.103 micromol min(-1), towards cellobiose. beta-Glucosidase activity was strongly increased by Mn(2+) and Fe(3+), while Cu(2+) severely inhibited it. CONCLUSIONS: Ceriporiopsis subvermispora produces small amounts of beta-glucosidase when grown on wood. The gel filtration and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis data revealed the existence of two beta-glucosidases with 110 and 53 kDa. The 110 kDa beta-glucosidase from C. subvermispora can be efficiently purified in a single step by gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme has an acid pH optimum with similar activity on pNPG and cellobiose and is thus typical beta-glucosidase. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Ceriporiopsis subvermispora produces beta-glucosidase with limited action during wood decay making able its use for the production of biomechanical and biochemical pulps. The results presented in this paper show the importance of studying the behaviour of beta-glucosidases during biopulping.     

Calpain II induced insolubilization of lens β-crystallin polypeptides may induce cataract

Addition of calpain II (EC 3.4.22.17) to soluble proteins from 10-day-old rat lens caused an increase in turbidity and production of water-insoluble protein. The insolubilization increased with higher concentrations of both lens protein and calpain II, it could be prevented by the cysteine protease inhibitor E-64; it required at least 0.5 mM Ca²⁺, it was limited to 6% of the soluble protein present and resulted from precipitation β-crystallin polypeptides. When compared by two-dimensional electrophoresis, the insoluble β-crystallin polypeptides produced by calpain II were similar to insoluble β-crystallin polypeptides found incataractous lenses. Trypsin also caused insolubilization of β-crystallin polypeptides, but these polypeptides were unlike polypeptides produced during cataract formation. These data suggested that the loss of solubility was due to a specific removal of N/or C-terminal extensions from β-crystallin polypeptides by calpain II, and that a similar process may occur in vivo during cataract formation. It is hypothesized that the insoluble protein produced by calpain II causes cataract by increasing light scatter in the lens.
