Analysis of simian virus 40 infection of CV-1 cells by quantitative two-color fluorescence with flow cytometry 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Quantitative two-color fluorescent analysis of Simian virus (SV40) infection of permissive CV-1 cells was investigated. Analysis included by quantitation of cellular DNA, the early viral tumor (T) antigen with a monoclonal antibody, and late viral (V) antigens with a polyclonal antibody. T antigen was detected in all phases of the cell cycle at 6 and 12 h, after SV40 infection of growth arrested cells. At later time intervals, the percentage of T-antigen-positive cells increased with the induction of the cells into successive rounds of DNA synthesis and an increase in tetraploid-polyploid cells. The amount of T antigen per cell increased as the cells entered the successive stages of the cell cycle (G0/G1----G2 + M----tetraploid S and G2 + M). The V antigen from adsorbed virus was detected immediately after infection. Synthesis of V antigen began in late S and G2 + M phases of the cell cycle. This quantitative analysis allows a definitive determination of antigen per cell in a population correlated with the cell cycle and may be useful in correlating viral and cellular events with transformation. 相似文献

Yeast communities in necroses of organpipe cactus (Stenocereus thurberi) were surveyed at 3 localities in Arizona. Quantitative analysis of random samples allows comparisons of the types and numbers of yeasts at 3 levels: within plants, between plants within a locality, and between localities. The analysis shows that the major source of variability is between plants. This pattern is identical with the pattern shown by agria cactus (Stenocereus gummosus) and is thought to be due to sampling different successional stages. No significant differences in estimates of the effective number of yeast species (ENS) in agria and organpipe samples were found. Comparisons of agria, organpipe, and prickly pear (Opuntia) cacti support the hypothesis that cactus chemistry is an important determinant of the yeast community structure which, in turn, is an important determinant of the diversity ofDrosophila species which utilize necrotic cacti as feeding and breeding substrates. 相似文献

Bacterial succession in necrotic tissue of agria cactus (Stenocereus gummosus). 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0 下载免费PDF全文
The bacterial communities associated with the development of necroses in injured agria cactus tissue were examined in the field by using both human-induced injuries and cactus tissue inoculated with cactophilic bacteria. Whole-cell bacterial fatty acids were used to determine when and where each of 23 detected species occurred. This information was then used to describe successional patterns of bacterial colonization. Although the number of bacterial species in human-induced injuries reached a maximum on day 16, the Shannon-Weaver diversity index increased to a plateau, which reflects a stable bacterial community. The potential of the bacterial community to macerate the injured cactus tissue was also examined, and the results indicate that the bacteria initially colonizing the newly injured cactus tissue were more likely to contain pectinolytic, proteolytic, and lipolytic enzymes than were the bacteria entering the injuries once tissue maceration had already begun. The cactophilic fruit fly Drosophila mojavensis has been previously shown to carry bacteria to newly injured cactus tissue. In these studies, exclusion of these insects did not significantly affect bacterial succession or community structure. This supports our contention that bacteria colonize injured tissue primarily by passive transport, e.g., on wind-blown particles. 相似文献

Induction by alkaloids and phenobarbital of Family 4 Cytochrome P450s in Drosophila : evidence for involvement in host plant utilization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In vertebrates, cytochrome P450s of the CYP2 and CYP3 families play a dominant role in drug metabolism, while in insects members of the CYP6 and CYP28 families have been implicated in metabolism of insecticides and toxic natural plant compounds. A degenerate 3′ RACE strategy resulted in the identification of fifteen novel P450s from an alkaloid-resistant species of Drosophila. The strong (17.4-fold) and highly specific induction of a single gene (CYP4D10) by the toxic isoquinoline alkaloids of a commonly utilized host-plant (saguaro cactus) provides the first indication that members of the CYP4 family in insects may play an important role in the maintenance of specific insect-host plant relationships. Strong barbiturate inducibility of CYP4D10 and two other D. mettleri P450 sequences of the CYP4 family was also observed, suggesting a pattern of xenobiotic responsiveness more similar to those of several vertebrate drug-metabolizing enzymes than to putative vertebrate CYP4 homologs. 相似文献

Analysis of fragment homology among DNA sequences from cytochrome P450 families 4 and 6 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cytochrome P450s comprise a diverse superfamily of proteins that often share as little as 12% amino acid identity. Accordingly,
the identification of novel gene families, subfamilies and alleles has been based primarily on ‘benchmark’ levels of global
amino acid identity and, more recently, phylogenetic relatedness has been used to resolve ambiguous relationships. However,
PCR-based cloning strategies have resulted in a large increase in the number of short DNA sequences, particularly among insects.
Many of these fragments remain unnamed and even their gene family membership remains unknown due to the uncertainty as to
whether these fragments accurately reflect the levels of sequence identity or patterns of evolutionary divergence exhibited
by groups of full-length P450 sequences. As a result, the nature of P450 diversity among insects remains obscure. In this
paper, P450 sequences belonging to the two major gene families, that is, families CYP4 and CYP6, are analyzed by comparing
segments to full-length sequences. A parameter called the Segmental Divergence Index is used to characterize segments of P450s
with respect to the degree to which they mirror the divergence of full-length sequences. The reliability of these fragments
in phylogenetic analyses is also tested. The results of these analyses support the use of some commonly amplified P450 gene
fragments for naming new P450 genes and for studies of P450 diversity and evolution.

Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) experience difficulties related to emotional reactivity and regulation. The current study examines differences in the emotional reactivity and regulation of children with and without ADHD in the context of their real-life experiences of negative emotion using a novel ecologically valid methodology. Eighty-three 8–12-year-old children (46 ADHD, 38 non-ADHD) participated in the study. Children completed the negative emotion narrative recall task, a novel task whereby children provided a narrative recall of a real-life event where they experienced negative emotion. ANCOVA indicated children with ADHD recalled significantly more overall frustration and intense frustration than children without ADHD. Children with ADHD exhibiting more negative emotional reactivity while recalling negative emotions than children without ADHD. The current study suggests that children with ADHD are uniquely impacted by negative emotional experiences and represents an important step in understanding the emotional reactivity and regulation of children with ADHD. 相似文献

Correlation of DNA content, p53, T antigen, and V antigen in simian virus 40-infected human diploid cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Human diploid fibroblasts (HDF) have a finite life span in cell culture which can be extended when transformed with simian virus 40 (SV40). Flow cytometric analysis of SV40-HDF transformation allowed DNA content changes to be correlated with the appearance, quantity, and distribution of T antigen, p53, and V antigen, three proteins associated with this process. These studies demonstrated a shift in the DNA content to tetraploidy, which was correlated with the age of the SV40-HDF but not the time of infection. A significant increase of the epitope recognized by PAb122 to host p53 and the epitope PAb101 to SV40 T antigen occurred at the same time the tetraploid population appeared. However, an antigen reactive with SV40 V antibody was present at high levels in most of the population early after infection, but the levels declined with time. The percentage of PAb101-T antigen-positive cells increased more rapidly in cells infected at a late passage, and this was concomitant with the shift in DNA content to tetraploid. Analysis of the mean fluorescence of total, gated populations (G1, G2, and greater than G2) demonstrated that a threshold level of p53 and T antigen was reached in each compartment of the cell cycle. As the transformed phenotype appeared, a population of cells was continually released into the supernatant, and although these cells had a DNA pattern similar to the monolayer cells, the T antigen and p53 levels were 3-5 times higher in the tetraploid G2 cells. These studies correlated the expression of proteins associated with viral transformation in HDF which vary with time and shift in DNA content. 相似文献
