本文提取人骨骼肌α辅肌动蛋白（α－ａｃｔｉｎｉｎ）是综合了文献报导有关提取兔肌α－ａｃｔｉｎｉｎ的和提取鸡胗α－ａｃｔｉｎｉｎ的方法,稍加修改而确定的。用Ｈａｓｓｅｌｂａｃｈ－Ｓｃｈｎｅｉｄｅｒ缓冲液提取骨骼肌中的肌球蛋白后,将残余物经硼酸－缓冲液提取、匀浆及高速离心去掉肌动蛋白和肌原纤维的其它成份,上清加硫酸铵至３０％,３５％饱合度所得的沉淀用２２０ｍｍｏｌ／ＬＴｒｉｓ－乙酸溶解、透析、离心后经ＤＥ－５２柱层析可得电泳纯。α－ａｃｔｉｎｉｎ。将人骨骼肌α－ａｃｔｉｎｉｎ纯化制品免疫了三只大耳白纯种家兔,两个多月后,三只兔子都产生免抗人骨骼肌α－ａｃｔｉｎｉｎ的特异抗血清,用双向免疫扩散法和酶联免疫吸附试验（ＥＬＩＳＡ）测定,产生的抗体效价较高,用双扩散法测定效价为１：３２,用ＥＬＩＳＡ测定,用比率法判断结果,效价最高者为１：１００,０００左右,经免疫电镜观察结果证实,上述抗血清可以满足进一步实验要求。     

Influence of A1 cytoplasmic substitution on the downy-mildew incidence of pearl millet

Large-scale cultivation of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br. F₁ hybrids in India has led to increased incidence of downy-mildew (Sclerospora graminicola). There is concern that the A₁ male-sterile cytoplasm used in all the hybrids released so far is responsible for this increase. The influence of A₁ malesterile cytoplasm on downy-mildew incidence in pearl millet was studied by comparing the disease reaction of 40 pairs of F₁ hybrids, each pair carrying respectively a₁ male-sterile and normal B cytoplasm. Mean downy-mildew incidence was similar in the hybrids carrying either A₁ male-sterile or B cytoplasm. The general combining ability of lines with and without A₁ cytoplasm was found to be similar for downy-mildew incidence. These results indicated that in pearl millet A₁ cytoplasm is not associated with increased downymildew incidence. The possible danger of using only one source of cytoplasm has been briefly discussed.     

The SKS of the KMSKS signature of class I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases corresponds to the GKT/S sequence characteristic of the ATP-binding site of many proteins

On the basis of protein modification studies and primary structure comparison, we propose that the SKS sequence within the KMSKS signature of the class 1 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases corresponds to the GKT(or S) sequence considered as a signature of the nucleotide triphosphate-binding site of many proteins.     

在中国壮族家系中发现的一例-α~T/-α~Q复合β~0β~0珠蛋白基因型

本文报道在我国广西隆林壮族中发现一个罕見的HbQ复合α,β地中海贫血家系。先证者女,18岁,贫血面容,肝脾肿大。化学结构分析确证本Hb变异体为HbQ Thailand[α74(EF3)Asp→His]。血红蛋白组成以及α和β珠蛋白基因分析结果表明,先证者的珠蛋白基因型为-α~Q/-α~T复合β°/β°(IVSI-1G→T/Codon17A→T);先证者父的基因型为-‘α~Q/-复合β~O/β~A(IVSI-1G→T/β~A);先证母的基因型为-α~T/αα复合β~O/β~A(Codon17A→T/β~A)。     

大鼠肝癌中α_2-巨球蛋白等几种分泌性蛋白基因表达的变化

用Northern blot方法对二乙基亚硝胺所诱发的大鼠肝癌中内源性蛋白酶抑制因子α_2-巨球蛋白(α_2-M)、非特异性免疫抑制剂α_1-酸性糖蛋白(α_1-AGP)及雄性激素正调控的α-2u球蛋白(α-2u)三种分泌性蛋白基因表达情况进行了分析。结果表明在大部分(14/16)肝癌样品中α_2-M RNA水平显著降低;而α_1-AGP RNA水平显著高于正常对照水平;α-2u RNA水平明显下降,但在某些雄性大鼠肝癌样品中该基因却有一定程度的表达。这些结果说明,一些肿瘤宿主血浆中α_2-M水平的显著下降及α_1-AGP水平的明显升高分别是由于基因表达活性的下降及升高所致。α-2u基因表达的异常提示,在癌变过程中机体的内分泌功能发生了某些变化。     

盐酸胍诱导的α淀粉酶去折叠与再折叠

利用蛋白质内源荧光和酶活性两种信号以及荧光偏振,HPLC和停流等方法研究了盐酸胍诱导的α淀粉酶去折叠与重折叠的平衡转变和动力学。实验结果表明α淀粉酶去折叠与重折叠是两个不同的过程;变性与复性过程中可能伴有聚集体生成;去折叠与重折叠均为双相过程,重折叠大约始于2秒之后。     

Association between barium exposed,CYP19A1 and central obesity: A cross-sectional study in rural China

Backgroundobesity is a major risk factor for many metabolic diseases such as diabetes and cardiometabolic diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the association of plasma and urinary barium concentrations, CYP19A1 gene polymorphisms, and their interaction with central obesity in a rural Chinese population.Methodsrestricted cubic spline model was used to explore the dose-response relationship between barium and the risk of developing central obesity and waist circumference; logistic regression model was used to assess the association between barium, CYP19A1 gene polymorphisms and their interaction with central obesity.Resultsthe results of the restricted cubic spline model showed that plasma barium concentration was linearly associated with the risk of developing central obesity and non-linearly associated with waist circumference. Logistic regression analysis showed that participants with Q4 plasma barium concentration exhibited a higher risk of central obesity compared to participants with Q1 barium concentration; participants carrying the rs10046-AA gene exhibited a lower risk of central obesity than those carrying the rs10046-G(GG+GA) gene; participants carrying the rs10046-GA genotype showed 1.754 times higher risk of central obesity than those carrying rs10046-GG+AA genotype. There was a significant interaction between plasma barium and CYP19A1 gene polymorphism on central obesity.Conclusionthe development of central obesity was associated with plasma barium and CYP19A1.
