The activity of NADP+ -dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH, EC 1.1.1.42) was investigated during the post-germinative growth of cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L. cv. Marketmore) seedlings. Isoelectric focusing showed the presence of several isoenzymes, two of which represented 70–80% of the total NADP+ -ICDH activity in cotyledons of seedlings grown in the dark. They had pI values between 4.8 and 5.8. The isoenzyme with higher pI was purified to homogeneity by hydrophobic interaction, affinity, hydroxylapatite and anion exchange chromatography. The purified isoenzyme is a dimeric protein, consisting of two apparently identical 43-kDa subunits. It is specific for NADP+ , inhibited by ATP and by 2-oxoglutarate, whereas it is not inhibited by citrate, succinate, and glyoxylate. The data indicate that NADP+ -ICDH from cucumber is structurally similar to ICDHs from other plants, but it shows some peculiar biochemical characteristics. 相似文献

This article documents the initial development of a Spanish mental health quality of life (QOL) instrument based on the adolescents' own assessment of important domains to their QOL. Using a grounded theory approach, we targeted five mental health disorders: attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, conduct disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and major depressive disorder. In-depth interviews (n = 40) and three focus groups (n = 20) were conducted and analyzed using qualitative methods to guide the development of items. A convenient sample of island Puerto Rican adolescents aged 12-18 was recruited from outpatient mental health clinics. Qualitative analysis revealed a total of 87 themes. They were distributed based on core QOL domains such as (1) Self, (2) Peers, (3) Family, (4) School, and (5) Environment. Items were written based on prevailing themes and using as closely as possible, words and phrases used by the adolescents to describe their views and perceptions of QOL. The goal for the AQOL-MHS is to pinpoint specific areas of health-related QOL for each psychiatric diagnostic group that will provide valuable information to assist both patients and providers set, define and evaluate adequate mental health treatment goals. 相似文献

In this paper we report on the process of translating five mental health outcome measures into Spanish and adapting them to Latino culture. The instruments considered are the World Health Organization-Disability Assessment Scale, the Burden Assessment Scale, the Family Burden Scale, Lehman's Quality of Life Interview and the Continuity of Care in Mental Health Services Interview. A systematic process of translation and adaptation of the instruments was followed with the goal of achieving cultural equivalence between the English and Spanish versions of the instruments in five dimensions: semantic, content, technical, construct, and criterion equivalence. In this paper we present data about the semantic, content, and technical equivalence. Various steps were taken to achieve equivalence in these dimensions, including the use of a bilingual committee, a multi-national bilingual committee, back-translation, and focus groups with mental health patients and their relatives. 相似文献

Isolation of twenty low stutter di- and tetranucleotide microsatellites for population analyses of walleye pollock and other gadoids 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Fourteen tetra- and six dinucleotide microsatellites, which exhibit minimal stuttering following amplification via PCR were developed from walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma . Most of these loci were isolated from a library enriched for tetranucleotide microsatellites by hybridization of genomic DNA to (gata)7 oligonucleotides bound to streptavidin-coated paramagnetic beads. The average heterozygosity of these loci is ∼80%, and ranges from 53–95%. Mendelian inheritance was confirmed in five families, each consisting of a minimum of 10 or more offspring. Primer sets for all 20 loci were also evaluated in Arctic cod Boreogadus saida , Pacific cod Gadus macrocephalus , Pacific tomcod Microgadus proximus , sa.ron cod Eleginus gracilis , Pacific hake Merluccius productus , Atlantic cod Gadus morhua , haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus , blue whiting Micromesistius poutassou , and European hake Merluccius merluccius . In each of these species, 3–19 primer sets amplified variable microsatellite loci. These loci, which exhibit little stutter and moderate to high variability, should be useful population markers in pollock and other gadoid fishes. 相似文献

Background
The relative contributions of genetics and environment to asthma in Hispanics or to asthma in children younger than 3 years are not well understood.Objective
To examine the relative contributions of genetics and environment to early-childhood asthma by performing a longitudinal twin study of asthma in Puerto Rican children ≤3 years old.Methods
678 twin infants from the Puerto Rico Neo-Natal Twin Registry were assessed for asthma at age 1 year, with follow-up data obtained for 624 twins at age 3 years. Zygosity was determined by DNA microsatellite profiling. Structural equation modeling was performed for three phenotypes at ages 1 and 3 years: physician-diagnosed asthma, asthma medication use in the past year, and ≥1 hospitalization for asthma in the past year. Models were additionally adjusted for early-life environmental tobacco smoke exposure, sex, and age.Results
The prevalences of physician-diagnosed asthma, asthma medication use, and hospitalization for asthma were 11.6%, 10.8%, 4.9% at age 1 year, and 34.1%, 40.1%, and 8.5% at 3 years, respectively. Shared environmental effects contributed to the majority of variance in susceptibility to physician-diagnosed asthma and asthma medication use in the first year of life (84%–86%), while genetic effects drove variance in all phenotypes (45%–65%) at age 3 years. Early-life environmental tobacco smoke, sex, and age contributed to variance in susceptibility.Conclusion
Our longitudinal study in Puerto Rican twins demonstrates a changing contribution of shared environmental effects to liability for physician-diagnosed asthma and asthma medication use between ages 1 and 3 years. Early-life environmental tobacco smoke reduction could markedly reduce asthma morbidity in young Puerto Rican children. 相似文献8.

The growth, nucleic acid and protein contents of walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma larvae reared at prey densities of 10, 30, 50, and 500 prey 1-1 were measured for the first 9 days after the feeding initiation at 6° C. Incremental growth rates of larvae (mm day-1 ) were low and variable for the first 7 days after feeding initiation. Growth rates and rates of RNA, DNA, and protein accumulation by larvae reared at 500 prey 1-1 were positive while those of larvae reared at the lower prey levels did not differ significantly from zero. The RNA/DNA ratio was variable and exhibited no significant trend among food treatments. Estimates of instantaneous protein growth rates ranged from - 6·7 to 13·2% day-1 at food densities of 10 and 500 prey 1-1 , respectively, and were moderately correlated with larval RNA/DNA ratios ( r = 0·628). The results suggest that in situ protein growth rates of first-feeding pollock larvae may be influenced by prey fields within the range of ambient food densities reported for sub-Arctic ecosystems. 相似文献

The advent of the use of structured interview schedules that generate psychiatric diagnoses in epidemiologic studies has promoted an intense interest in its cross-cultural use. However, the valid use of these instruments across cultures requires a careful adaptation process which goes beyond mere language translation. In this article the authors illustrate the application of a comprehensive cross-cultural adaptation model to both the translation into Spanish and the adaptation to the population of Puerto Rico of a widely used psychiatric epidemiologic research instrument: the Diagnostic Interview Schedule (DIS). The process aimed to ensure the development of a research instrument that is not only in correct Spanish and comprehensible for most Spanish-speaking people, but also culturally adapted to Puerto Rico's population. Various steps were taken (including bilingual committee, back-translation, instrument testing and diagnostic comparisons) to address cross-cultural validity in five important dimensions (i.e., semantic, technical, content, criterion and conceptual equivalence). The result is an interview schedule that is not only linguistically and culturally adequate for the targeted population but also includes elements which can contribute to the development of the instrument both in its original English language and in its translated versions. 相似文献
