Temperatures in mountain areas are increasing at a higher rate than the Northern Hemisphere land average, but how fauna may respond, in particular in terms of phenology, remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to assess how elevation could modify the relationships between climate variability (air temperature and snow melt‐out date), the timing of plant phenology and egg‐laying date of the coal tit (Periparus ater). We collected 9 years (2011–2019) of data on egg‐laying date, spring air temperature, snow melt‐out date, and larch budburst date at two elevations (~1,300 m and ~1,900 m asl) on a slope located in the Mont‐Blanc Massif in the French Alps. We found that at low elevation, larch budburst date had a direct influence on egg‐laying date, while at high‐altitude snow melt‐out date was the limiting factor. At both elevations, air temperature had a similar effect on egg‐laying date, but was a poorer predictor than larch budburst or snowmelt date. Our results shed light on proximate drivers of breeding phenology responses to interannual climate variability in mountain areas and suggest that factors directly influencing species phenology vary at different elevations. Predicting the future responses of species in a climate change context will require testing the transferability of models and accounting for nonstationary relationships between environmental predictors and the timing of phenological events. 相似文献

Minimally modified oligonucleotides belong to the second-generation antisense class. They are phosphodiester oligonucleotides with a minimum of phosphorothioate linkages in order to be protected against serum and cellular exonucleases and endonucleases. They activate RNase H, have weak interactions with proteins, and have thus a better antisense efficiency. Two of them have been designed from an all-phosphorothioate antisense oligonucleotide directed against mdrl-expressing cells. They are protected against serum and cellular enzymatic degradation by the self-forming hairpin d(GCGAAGC) at their 3'-end and by judiciously located phosphorothioate residues, depending on the cellular composition in exonucleases or endonucleases. Besides their already demonstrated ability to cleave pyrimidine sites, endonucleases show some specificity for CpG sites. Their activity is hindered if specific sites are involved in secondary structure as hairpin. 相似文献

The thermal stability of the hexanucleoside pentaphosphate m5dCpdGpm5dCpdGpm5 dCpdG has been studied by resonance Raman spectroscopy with 257 nm excitation wavelength. At low temperature and in 3M NaClO4, the Raman spectrum resembles that of poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC) in the Z conformation. As the temperature is increased, the position and the intensity of several bands (1312 cm-1, 1482 cm-1, 1584 cm-1 and 1632 cm-1) are modified. The variation of intensity versus temperature is biphasic. Analysis of the results suggests that the increase of temperature induces first a transition from the Z form to an intermediate stable form which then melts. These results and those previously obtained by circular dichroism and 31P nuclear magnetic resonance suggest that the intermediate form belongs to the left family but with changes in the stacking of the bases and the geometry of the phosphate groups as compared to the canonical Z form. 相似文献

We have recently described how oligonucleotide (ON) stability and release from O/W cationic emulsions are governed by the lipid composition. The aim of the present paper was to investigate the properties of the ON/lipid complexes through fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), size, surface tension measurements and cryomicroscopy. Starting from a typical emulsion containing stearylamine as a cationic lipid, the influence of the lipid structure (monocationic molecules bearing mono or diacyl chains, or polycations) as well as of the presence of PEGylated lipids, were studied. The presence of a positive charge on the droplet surface clearly contributed to enhance the ON interaction with lipid monolayers and to bring the ON molecules closer to the interface. Hydrophobic interactions through the acyl chains were shown to further enhance the anchorage of the ON/lipid complexes. In contrast, the incorporation of PEGylated lipids acted as a barrier against the establishment of electrostatic bindings, the polyethyleneglycol chains acting themselves as interaction sites for the ON leading to hydrophilic complexes. Similar features were observed for the polycationic lipid, and cryomicroscopy revealed the existence of bridges of various intensities between the droplets of the emulsion containing either PEG or the polycation, probably because of the configuration of the ON at the interface. 相似文献

A circular dichroism study of DNA-basic peptides associations in the absence or in the presence of Ca++. 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0 下载免费PDF全文
The interaction of DNA with basic peptides (Lys methyl ester*, Lys2, (Lys)2methyl ester) has been studied by circular dichroism. The changes of the DNA CD spectra in the presence of peptides are interpreted as a transconformation from the B form to the C form of DNA. The presence of Ca++ in the mixture induces a supplementary transconformation. These observations suggest Ca++-basic peptides-DNA complexes as a structural model for chromatin. 相似文献

An oligodeoxynucleotide has been synthesized, which mimics an ``antigene' oligonucleotide with a polypyrimidic stretch on
its 5′ side and is protected on its 3′ side against nucelases by a naturally forming and very stable hairpin, 5′GCGAAGC3′.
The in vitro degradation of the resulting oligonucleotide d(5′TTCTCGCGAAGC3′) has already been studied by fluorescence resonance
energy transfer (FRET) (Réfrégiers et al. 1996, J Biomol Struct Dyn 14: 365 – 371). The technique required the grafting of
fluorophores at both ends of the oligonucleotide. In the present work we have compared the hairpin formed in the presence
and in the absence of such fluorophores. This was achieved by the study of the Raman spectra (excitation at 257 nm) of the
oligodeoxynucleotides H, which forms the hairpin (5′TTCTCGCGAAGC3′), and a con-trol C (5′TTCTCCGGAAGC3′) which is unable to
form the hairpin. Resonance Raman spectroscopy with 257 nm excitation greatly favors the resonance of purines and therefore
the study of the 3′ part of the oligonucleotides. The difference spectrum obtained from resonance Raman spectra of C and H
showed marker peaks specific for hairpin formation. The search for these marker peaks in difference spectra involving the
Raman spectrum of H labeled by fluorophores and either C or H proved that the fluorophores do not modify the structure of
the hairpin but only the vibrations of the two terminal bases on which the fluorophores are grafted. The use of such labeling
is then justified in order to allow oligonucleotides protected by a hairpin on their 3′ side to be studied by fluorescence
spectroscopy.

The Z-conformation of poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT) in solution as studied by ultraviolet resonance Raman spectroscopy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT) structures in aqueous solutions with high NaCl concentrations and in the presence of Ni2+ ions have been studied with resonance Raman spectroscopy (RRS). In low water activity the effects of added 95 mM NiCl2 in solution stabilize the syn geometry of the purines and reorganize the water distribution via local interactions of Ni-water charged complexes with the adenine N7 position. It is shown that RRS provides good marker bands for a left-handed helix: i) a purine ring breathing mode around 630 cm-1 coupled to the deoxyribose vibration in the syn geometry, ii) a 1300-1340 cm-1 region characterizing local chemical interactions of the Ni2+ ions with the adenine N7 position, iii) lines at about 1483- and 1582 cm-1 correlated to the anti/syn reorientation of the adenine residues on B-Z structure transition, iv) marker bands of the thymidine carbonyl group couplings at 1680- and 1733 cm-1 due to the disposition of the thymidine residues in the Z helix specific geometry. Hence poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT) can adopt a Z form in solution. The Z form observed in alternate purine-pyrimidine sequences does not require G-C base pairs. 相似文献

We have studied the hydrogen-deuterium exchange kinetics of the exchangeable protons of the poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC) in the Z form of the polymer, using resonance Raman spectroscopy with 257 nm and 284 nm excitation wavelengths. In our experimental conditions (4.5 M NaCl, phosphate buffer pH7, 2 degrees C) the two amino protons and the imino proton of guanine are exchanged with the same exchange half-time of 13 min, whereas the two amino protons of cytosine are exchanged with the same exchange half-time of 51 min. 相似文献

Infrared absorption and resonance Raman spectroscopy (RRS) are used to study poly(dG-dC)·poly(dG-dC) in two different forms: the right-handed B form at low ionic strength and the left-handed Z form at high ionic strength. The existence of a new electronic absorption band in the 290–300-nm region is evidenced by uv RRS studies of the Z form at different wavelengths of excitation. Infrared absorption spectra prove that this new electronic band is polarized perpendicularly to the cytosine plane. The possibility of a nπ* character of this transition moment is discussed. 相似文献
