氰类和酯类取代基水溶金属卟啉与DNA相互作用的共振拉曼研究

用共振拉曼和紫外－可见吸收光谱研究了水溶金属卟啉４－Ｎ－乙酸乙酯基－吡啶基铜卟啉和镍卟啉［简称Ｃｕ（ＮＥＡＥ）和Ｎｉ（ＮＥＡＥ）］及４－Ｎ－乙腈基－吡啶基铜卟啉［简称Ｃｕ（ＮＡＣＮ）］与小牛胸腺ＤＮＡ的相互作用。分析表明Ｃｕ（ＮＥＡＥ）、Ｎｉ（ＮＥＡＥ）和Ｃｕ（ＮＡＣＮ）分别以外部键联、部分插入和沟槽方式与ＤＮＡ作用;卟啉插入ＤＮＡ时吡啶基团向卟啉环平面转动但不可能转成与之共面;而以非插入方式作用时吡啶基团会向垂直于或者平行于卟啉环平面转动。吡啶取代基的大小和空间位阻是影响相互作用方式的关键因素之一。     

A New Histochemical Double-Stain Method Using Three-Dimensional Analysis with Confocal laser Scanning Microscopy

We describe a new technique for immunohistochemical and enzyme-histochemi-cal double staining using confocal laser scanning microscopy in the reflection mode. As an example, we investigated the immunoreactivity for Spot 35-calbindin-D_28K, a vitamin D-dependent calcium binding protein, and the enzyme activity for ma⁺-ATPase in the rat kidney. The lead precipitation method for Ca²⁺-ATPase was initially used to process kidney slices. Each specimen was then dehydrated and embedded in a water soluble resin. Thin sections were cut from the resin block, and an indirect immunocolloidal gold method with silver enhancement for Spot 35-calbindin-D_28K antigen was carried out on the glass slides. Results were then observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy in the reflection mode. The three-dimensional distribution of the reaction products was detected by serial optic slice images. Lead phosphate particles, which represented the location of Ca²⁺-ATPase, were distributed deep in the section. The most intense signals from the silver partkles were detected from the surface slice of the section. A stereoscopic image generated from the serial optic slices clearly showed the differences in their distribution.     

The Presence of (+)-S-Adenosyl-l-Methionine in the Rat Brain and Its Lack of Effect on Phenylethanolamine N-Methyltransferase Activity

Abstract: (+)-S-Adenosyl- l -methionine [(+)-SAM] was isolated from rat brain and was quantified by HPLC followed by UV spectrophotometric measurements and by ¹H-NMR. Its estimated ratio in brain is 3% of total SAM. Because of its commercial unavailability, (+)-SAM was also prepared from chemically synthesized SAM by separation of the two diastereoisomers on a preparative reverse-phase Nucleosil C8 column. The (+) diastereoisomer thus obtained was then assayed in vitro both as an inhibitor and a substrate of phenylethanolamine N -methyltransferase. Enzymatic activity was measured by HPLC analysis. It was shown that (+)-SAM has no effect on phenylethanolamine N -methyltransferase activity; therefore, it is unlikely that (+)-SAM plays any possible role in regulation of adrenaline synthesis in the brain.     

Action of α-l-fucoside fromOctopus vulgaris hepatopancreas on phospholipid vesicles containing the fucosylated ganglioside FucGM1

The behaviour of a highly purified -l-fucosidase (E.C. 3.2.1.51) extracted from octopus hepatopancreas was studied with phospholipid vesicles composed of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylserine (PS) containing the fucosylated ganglioside FucGM1, a potential natural substrate of the enzyme. The substrate recognition and hydrolysis take place only with PS/FucGM1 mixtures via an association process of the enzyme with the vesicles at acidic pH; the enzyme rapidly and stably binds to PS vesicles but not to PC vesicles. The data suggest that only the PS-associated enzyme is able to hydrolyse FucGM1 embedded in the same bilayer. The enzyme association with FucGM1/PS vesicles is a prerequisite for ganglioside hydrolysis but is followed by irreversible enzyme inactivation.

Comparison of the conserved region in the dnaA gene from three mollicute species

Abstract Polymerase chain reaction was carried out to amplify the conserved region (789 bp in the case of Mycoplasma capricolum ) of the dnaA gene (1350 bp in the case of M. capricolum ) of 15 representatives of the class Mollicutes using degenerate oligonucleotide primers. The dnaA gene fragments were amplified from M. mycoides subsp. capri, Spiroplasma apis and S. citri . The amino acid sequences deduced from the nucleotide sequences of the amplified fragments showed very low similarities to those of the corresponding regions of four walled bacteria. The values of similarity between any two of the three mollicute species were lower than those between any two of the four walled bacteria.

The second life of terrestrial and plastic carbon as nutritionally valuable food for aquatic consumers

Primary production is the basis for energy and biomolecule flow in food webs. Nutritional importance of terrestrial and plastic carbon via mixotrophic algae to upper trophic level is poorly studied. We explored this question by analysing the contribution of osmo- and phagomixotrophic species in boreal lakes and used ¹³C-labelled materials and compound-specific isotopes to determine biochemical fate of carbon backbone of leaves, lignin–hemicellulose and polystyrene at four-trophic level experiment. Microbes prepared similar amounts of amino acids from leaves and lignin, but four times more membrane lipids from lignin than leaves, and much less from polystyrene. Mixotrophic algae (Cryptomonas sp.) upgraded simple fatty acids to essential omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. Labelled amino and fatty acids became integral parts of cell membranes of zooplankton (Daphnia magna) and fish (Danio rerio). These results show that terrestrial and plastic carbon can provide backbones for essential biomolecules of mixotrophic algae and consumers at higher trophic levels.
